At The Speed Of Life

Listen, you fuckers, you screw heads
Here's a man who won't take it anymore
A man who stood up against the scum, the cunts, the dogs, the filth, the shit
Here is someone who stood up
Here is-
(Ha, ha, ha)
Yeah! Hennessy for everyone music proudly presents, yeah
Xzibit, movin' at the speed of life
Yeah! Check it

It took a long time comin', but we waited
Xzibit went from underrated, to now most anticipated
Never would have thought that I would rock your set
And get love and respect without no special effects
Only the rugged ruff shit that the hard rock need
Lyrics must contain more than just clothes bitches and weed
Thinkin' how you like to see the next man bleed
Tryin' to glorify greed

Livin' life at ridiculous speed
Indeed, the main goal to achieve, is to succeed
Have it laid out for your seed
But the world gets colder every day by day
Physically, mentally gettin' drained by L.A.
Tryin' to find peace of mind, is like trying to find a gold mine
It just won't happen
No time for relaxin', real soldiers of fortune

The front line of the action
So never show a nigga what you packin'
"You know what I'm sayin'?"
It's too much weight to be jugglin'
Who do you picture when you think about strugglin'?
Kids in the bed, no food stomach bubblin'
The niggas in the E-class, heavy drug smugglin'

Movin', yeah!
It is movin'
At the speed of life (break it)

And plus I feel that no style is darker than mine
There was a time it was all about beats and rhymes
But nowadays (yeah) the blind just follow the blind
And when I die, niggas still recite these lines
To rock the heads (heads), waterbeds (beds) cities and towns
Bringin' strength to the masses that be holdin' it down

The underground, to upper echelon and beyond (upper us, upper us, upper us)
Xzibit rock and roll the streets like a vagabond (yeah)
Nigga wanna trip you gettin' dissed like a blond bitch
Mackin to Farrakhan, I run game, like a marathon (huh)
It's here today, then tomorrow it's gone
It's the law of the land, a straight modern day Babylon!

Movin' (ah, yeah) (yeah, like this)
Like this (yeah), at the speed of life
Ah, bring it live, yeah

Xzibit lookin' at the Earth through wide angles
I found a stairway to Heaven in a city of lost angels
Where small situations turn to altercation
With a heavy ass price, 'cause niggas don't fight no more
Before hip hop, was all about drama
Anythin' for a dollar before Kane fucked Madonna
Xzibit maintain and stayed bent like a comma (ah)

Just me and my bottle, we shall lead not follow (lead not follow)
MCs be full of shit, but they style be hollow
It seems you've bitin' off more than you can possibly swallow
Just a day in the life of a man named X
Only blunt and latex for the opposite sex
You see niggas comin' through to smoke and pay respect
Ever since fifteen, I been ready for anythin'

Whatever they bring in any shape, form or fashion
I live to the fullest and rip rhyme with a passion (with a passion)
But in the meanwhile, if worse comes to worst
Bust a round or bust a whatever comes first (we 'bout to die)
Yeah, we got it locked down tight
Xzibit bring truth to the light
Shit is movin' at the speed of life

(For my enemies)
(What now?)
(This is it? Look at the kids fight)
