Man on the Corner
Now, tell me, who's that man on the corner?
I can tell, a guy, a transformer
Transform your mind, take your soul
Creating young futures, plays the head role
A guy, firm as your mouth from the go
Innovate crime, a store that ho
Don't know his name, just obeys orders
Stays out of range, man on the corner
Man on the corner, I'm known to you
Spreading disease like the flu
If he gets you, sticks like glue
After harm is done, you're through
Beware of the big bad Pumas she clothes
Takes his break and then he goes
Can't do you any good, they only destroys
Criminal play, he is the viceroy
Above him rules the big boss and his convoy
Watch your steps when you deal with him, homeboy
Alright, it easy money, need a fast buck
Make a deal, after that you're stuck
Doesn't work out, cops appear in your block
Pine away in jail, leaves you like dirt muck
If you talk, you're the one they will trace
End up with a gun in your face
Threaten your next of kin, you are amazed?
No matter how you see it, you're the one who pays
The winner, you're the loser, that's the case
Man on the corner, foe of the human race
Man on the corner
Man, man on the corner
Man on the corner
Man, man on the corner
Man on the corner, got my sister
Talking all that crap, were the big mister
Should've known better from the day you kissed her
She would end up with a face full of blisters
You did your job real nice and slow
A walking disgrace, being low
Family disrespects her, that's a real blow
Remember you're the one who made you a ho
Think it out what you can take
Don't you have conscience, for God's sake
Suppose you don't, your ways are real bad
Make victims every day, never regret
Earn the profit and the bread
Sometimes I wonder if I'm on the wrong planet
A large number of girls you have invaded
Get even with you is very complicated
But now I'm prepared to wait for the final hour
Every possible way I'll use to get you, coward
Said my boots are made for walking, that's what they do
One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you
These boots are made for walking, that's what they do
One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you, man
Man on the corner
Man, man on the corner
Man on the corner
Man, man on the corner
Yo, grab a nine
I can tell, a guy, a transformer
Transform your mind, take your soul
Creating young futures, plays the head role
A guy, firm as your mouth from the go
Innovate crime, a store that ho
Don't know his name, just obeys orders
Stays out of range, man on the corner
Man on the corner, I'm known to you
Spreading disease like the flu
If he gets you, sticks like glue
After harm is done, you're through
Beware of the big bad Pumas she clothes
Takes his break and then he goes
Can't do you any good, they only destroys
Criminal play, he is the viceroy
Above him rules the big boss and his convoy
Watch your steps when you deal with him, homeboy
Alright, it easy money, need a fast buck
Make a deal, after that you're stuck
Doesn't work out, cops appear in your block
Pine away in jail, leaves you like dirt muck
If you talk, you're the one they will trace
End up with a gun in your face
Threaten your next of kin, you are amazed?
No matter how you see it, you're the one who pays
The winner, you're the loser, that's the case
Man on the corner, foe of the human race
Man on the corner
Man, man on the corner
Man on the corner
Man, man on the corner
Man on the corner, got my sister
Talking all that crap, were the big mister
Should've known better from the day you kissed her

One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you, man
Man on the corner
Man, man on the corner
Man on the corner
Man, man on the corner
Yo, grab a nine
