Yo what up kid?

Yeah man

Yo that's my nigga, yaknowwhaImean

Scarface is tight son

Yo that's a good idea word is bond

I'm gonna talk the play in tomorrow(yeah) and

see about if we could hook up wit him

That's proper Scandalous, money greed and lust

In this trife life, there ain't nobody you can trust

Plus there's no justice, it's just us

In fact, watchin' yo back it be must

And each and everyday around the way gats bust

And jealous so-called friends'll try to set you up

It's called betrayal Check the horror scene

The kid was like twelve or thirteen

Never had the chance like other kids to follow dreams

Watched his father catch two in the dome and to the spleen

Nothin" but blood everywhere, these streets are mean

They spared his life, but killed his moms and his sister Jean

Of course over some drug ***

Hi spops was on some ill-out, spill your guts, on some thug ***

Didn't know his boys was on some shady ass no love ***

His pops got played out though, with silencers they laid him out yo

Took his stash and all the cash and left 'em, tied up on the couch yo

With tape over his mouth, so he couldn't cry out

cause his dad was the nigga with clout

Survival of the fittest so they split his wig no doubt

Despite the stocking caps he noticed the same cat, who used to give him doe

and taught him, to use the same gat

Supposed to be an Uncle, fam and all that

He could tell it was him 'cause he wore the same slacks, he wore when

he took him to Meadowlands racetrack

Why did he flip and go out like that?

It's called betrayal Scandalous, money greed and lust

In this trife life, there ain't nobody you can trust

Plus there's no justice, it's just us

In fact, watchin' yo back it be must

And each and everyday around the way gats bust

And jealous so-called friends'll try to set you up

It's called betrayal A Betrayal

Punk ass niggas

It's called betrayal He on a mission to become a ball player

Flip big Benz's, flossin all gators

Had it all mapped out, 6-8, 12th grader

Fresh outta school, he fin' to go lay paper

He had abrother who was hustlin collectin his change

Never let his baby brother stick his neck in the game

Told him all he had to do is just enjoy the ride

And he ain't have to worry about money cause that's in time

So now he's pacin as the time moves slowly

Can't wait to face Shaquille in the paint and school Kobe

Kept his grades and stayed up under naighborhood functions

And then a group of knuckleheads came through dumpin

So now he's sittin on the sidewalk bleedin

Fell into a puddle of his own blood and stopped breathin

And everybody in the neighborhood still grievin

But destiny caught up with his ass and he got even

And all the cryin in the world ain't goin to bring him back

his brother, sittin at the wake wipin tears from his mother's eyes

Why'd the game have to go and take the young boys life

Only the wicked live shife, payin the price

while he's starin at the shell

his brothers soul wants hell the trigger man made bail

and you, wouldn't pay the boys mail, and sacrificed the fuckin family

That's betrayal

Betrayal Scandalous, money greed and lust

In this trife life, there ain't nobody you can trust

Plus there's no justice, it's just us

In fact, watchin' yo back it be must

And each and everyday around the way gats bust

And jealous so-called friends'll try to set you up

It's called betrayal
