Lyrics The Warning - Ja Rule

Dear God, I'm petitioning this prayer
And I thank you for all of the physical food you've given me
And all the health and strength
And may my family be healthy, safe and strong, as well as myself
And I thank you for everything you've given me thus far, Lord
And I beg your forgiveness for our sin everyday
In your son's name, Christ Jesus, Amen

They all want me (Dead or alive)
But they'll never (Take me alive)
I'll get even (Before I die)
'Cause they all want me (Dead or alive)
But they'll never (Take me alive)
I'll get even (Before I die)
'Cause this world wants me (Dead or alive)

Look at what the streets have done to me, man
Hustlin', strugglin', I deserve a better hand
'Cause I'm runnin' these streets and it ain't safe
Motherfuckers like you can't relate
'Cause you ain't all about the hustlin'
All about the bustin', all about the thuggin', baby
Never let go, if you gotta die, lie, shake it with the fo'-fo'
Then do so, 'cause that's the life you chose
Shoulda followed the cracks in the road
Your heart and your soul, 'cause one thing I know
Good niggas come and they go
Bitch niggas actin' like hoes
But they need to get treated like ones
Hope you got yourself a gun, nigga
'Cause you know I cock and blow, niggas
And it's my right to self protection
Get on some shit, go out six deep and slump niggas
'Cause I'm a survivor like Destiny's Children
'Til the day of my demise, I'ma ask the Lord why

They all want me (Dead or alive)
But they'll never (Take me alive)
I'll get even (Before I die)
'Cause they all want me (They want me) (Dead or alive)
But they'll never (Take me alive)
I'll get even (Before I die)
'Cause this world wants me (Dead or alive)

Take a look at what this world has made me
All I really wanna do is be happy and raise my family
But I'm strong, motherfuckers can't break me down
Niggas really gonna hate me now, as if I'm givin' a fuck
I'm tryna get my life together, shit, a nigga can't ride forever
Tryna see a hundred mil' or better before I die
Don't ask me why, I got a fascination for freak hoes
New whips with two seats and two doors
I've been waitin' so long to explode
Now watch me cock back and unload
Bullets go through the chest and out the back
Shit, that's usually how the bod reacts
Now the look on your face is so relaxed
Now your family mourns and deal with that
But me, I'm a survivor like Destiny's Children
'Til the day of my demise, I'ma ask the Lord why

They all want me (Dead or alive)
But they'll never (Take me alive)
I'll get even (Before I die)
'Cause they all want me (Dead or alive)
But they'll never (Take me alive)
I'll get even (Before I die)
'Cause this world wants me (Dead or alive)

They all want me dead
Why the fuck would they wanna see me live?
So I'm gearin' up to get in some shit
Niggas better kiss the wife and kids
It's just the way us niggas live
And I roll with real niggas that run with
Big guns designed to pop your lid, shit
Never met a real nigga I didn't like
Never met a bitch nigga I didn't fight
Now niggas gon' get down or niggas gon' lay down
Dependin' on how niggas view life
And you'll never look in my eye
And you'll never, ever smile
'Cause your high is comin' down and you can't touch me
But if you really wanna fuck with me
Come on and get your heat, my niggas
Told you before, my niggas, don't ever doubt this nigga
'Cause I'm a survivor like Destiny's Children
'Til the day of my demise, I'ma ask the Lord why

They all want me (Dead or alive)
But they'll never (Take me alive)
I'll get even (Before I die)
'Cause they all want me (Dead or alive)
But they'll never (Take me alive)
I'll get even (Before I die)
'Cause this world wants me
They all want me (Dead or alive)
But they'll never (Take me alive)
I'll get even (Before I die)
'Cause they all want me (Dead or alive)
But they'll never (Take me alive)
I'll get even (Before I die)
'Cause this world wants me (Dead or alive)

This is Big motherfuckin' Remo
Understand what I'm tellin' you, man
My motherfuckin' niggas ain't playin'
We motherfuckin' gangstas, man
Understand this shit
Right now we gon' give you somethin' to motherfuckin' think about, man
These niggas is movin' like the mob, man, what the fuck is goin' on?
