    Turn
    One

    I'm feelin' like EST, 'cause everyone shine together (turn, turn)
    'Course the 9 can't flick like we
    Big lip look like he don't have a tenner
    I won't lie to the industry
    Somebody don't love their members
    Look in the mirror and ask yourself if you been in the trenches, pussy
    Yo, who's your opps? Can't be us (no)
    Pree the block, must be bruck (no)
    Pree the board, must be mud
    They get it online, not back in blood (turn)
    Can't be hate, must be love (turn, turn)
    Can't be beef, must be brunch (turn)
    You're involved? Can't be much (turn, turn)
    Where you from? Must be cunch

    SJ got half the 9 on a shank
    Startin' to feel like a TBT
    So I give my young guys the four-by-four
    Tell them, "Go the L," not 3X3
    They see me and wanted some clout
    I rose the crime rate, ask the BBC
    (Ask the BBC)
    They had to go next block for the GBG
    See a man get slapped
    Like he just went and made a G.I. Jane joke on G-A-N-G
    I jeeted out, ssh, and it won't get leaked
    She know her secrets are safest with me
    Tell the jakes, "Free man up" who shot, shh
    Can't be bug, all of this bine get chucked
    I knew soon someone will run out of luck (turn)

    I'm feelin' like EST, 'cause everyone shine together (turn, turn)
    'Course the 9 can't flick like we
    Big lip look like he don't have a tenner
    I won't lie to the industry
    Somebody don't love their members
    Look in the mirror and ask yourself if you been in the trenches, pussy
    Yo, who's your opps? Can't be us (no)
    Pree the block, must be bruck (no)
    Pree the board, must be mud
    They get it online, not back in blood (turn)
    Can't be hate, must be love (turn, turn)
    Can't be beef, must be brunch (turn)
    You're involved? Can't be much (turn, turn)
    Where you from? Must be cunch (grr)

    Take a look at my block and look at the 9 (shoot)
    Tell me who you think's winnin' collectively
    Only one man's up on their block
    They can't flick like the O, I don't say that respectfully (hang)
    How you get me down, then run for your life?
    That story sounds like a mess to me
    I heard you got banned from your block
    Check your friends, small boy
    I don't know why you vex with me
    I can put a milly down and bet my life
    He ain't got more money than DSavv
    And he ain't done more drills than we have
    We aim straight, we don't hit knee caps (bop)
    I ain't ever been stabbed by a opp in my life
    Let me recap, such lies, I can't believe that
    Must be coke, they need rehab (Bando)

    I'm feelin' Kodak Black 'cause everyone snipe together (SniperGang)
    'Course the 9 can't chat to the O
    Half of them look like they don't own a wetter (mad)
    I won't lie to the industry, somebody won't slide for their bredrin (who?)
    Look in the mirror and ask yourself if you been in the trenches, pussy
    You want beef? Must be dumb (boy)
    Who's he? Not the 1 (trust)
    Want smoke? Train your lungs
    Turner turned 'round and we saw him run
    It's not beef, must be lunch (Must be)
    Call Kreepz, bring the gun (boy)
    Taste the sweet, must be runts
    How you want beef and ain't got no funds?
    Bands, I'd hate to be from the 9 though (yo)
    They ain't did corn in years, from what I know (nah)
    We fling corn down back streets, gettin' done
    High roads even turned somethin' off on the side road
    Akz got it on him, so try now (my bro)
    Klapz went jail, they labelled him a psycho
    My friend saw him at the entrance
    Now he's on on a pendant, lookin' all fly though (ha-ha)
    I'd rather die than scream out Edmonton (real talk)
    Chest shots or I aim for the skeleton
    So don't get caught lackin' on a Church Street
    This candle never came from a reverend (get it?)

    I'm feelin' like EST, 'cause everyone shine together (turn, turn)
    'Course the 9 can't flick like we
    Big lip look like he don't have a tenner
    I won't lie to the industry
    Somebody don't love their members
    Look in the mirror and ask yourself if you been in the trenches, pussy
    Yo, who's your opps? Can't be us (no)
    Pree the block, must be bruck (no)
    Pree the board, must be mud
    They get it online, not back in blood (turn)
    Can't be hate, must be love (turn, turn)
    Can't be beef, must be brunch (turn)
    You're involved? Can't be much (turn, turn)
    Where you from? Must be cunch
