Chorus: GZA and RZA
I gotcha back, but you best to watch your

Cause it's the niggaz that front, they be pullin
stunts
I gotcha back, but you best to watch your
front
Cause it's the niggaz who front (they be pullin

Lyrics:
I was always taught my do's and don'ts
For do's I did, and for don'ts, I said I
won't
I'm from Brooklyn, a place where stars are
born
Streets are shot up, apartment buildings are
torn
and ripped up, stripped up, shacked up and
backed up
from fiends, cause the bosses on the scene, they
got it cracked up
Kids are slingin in my lobby
Little Steve and Bobby
Gettin paid but it's a life-threatening hobby
Yeah, they still play hide and seek
The fiends seek for the crack, and they hide and
let the cops peep
Grown folks say they should be out on their
own
Before the gangs come and blow up their mom's
home
Because they lifestyle is hectic, so fuckin
hectic
Blaow! Blaow! Blaow! Bullets are ejected
My lifestyle was so far from well
Coulda wrote a book with a title "Age 12 and
Goin through Hell"
Then I realized the plan
I'm trapped in a deadly video game, with just
one man
So I don't only watch my back, I watch my
front
Cause it's the niggaz who front, they be pullin
stunts
Back on the Ave of Lavonia and Bristol with a
pistol
Stickin up Pamela and Crystal
You know your town is dangerous when you see the
strangest
kid come home from doin the bid and nuthin
changes
What is the meaning of CRIME (what?)
Is it Criminals Robbin Innocent Motherfuckers
Everytime?
Little shorties take walks to the schoolyard
Tryin to solve the puzzles to why is life so
hard
Then as soon as they reached the playground,
blaow!
Shots ring off and now one of them lay down
It's so hard to escape the gunfire
I wish I could rule it out like an umpire
But it's an everlasting game, and it never cease
to exist
Only the players change, so...
Chorus 3X
RZA - I gotcha back (8X)
I gotcha back so you best to watch your front
Cause it's the niggaz who front, that be pullin
stunts
I gotcha back but you best to watch your
front
It's the niggaz who front, that be pullin
stunts
Outro: (LP version only)
*old man*
Your, tech, nique, is, mag-ni-ficent
When cut across the neck
A sound like wailing winter winds is heard, they
say
I'd always hoped to cut someone like that
someday
To hear that sound
But to have it happen to my own neck is...
ridiculous
*man gasps for air*
