time to time
combine life and what's the price of crime
money tight with christ or live wrong
sacrifice my life, money fights for bonds
i'm a pawn!

time to time
combine right and what's the price of wrong
long nights i write, recite songs
or shots from stripes, long nights
i type until school is gone

its two paths to choose
marquis, you go back to school
we have packs to move
these platinum plaques
exclude all the stats you prove
you'll be back into rap just get a scratch or bruise

now give back the tool
relapse every stat is proof
so don't ask i can't pass to you
no telling what a step back could do
just step-back, relax, and shoot
SWISH!
