1
We kept hustlin'
2
We kept grindin'
3
The overwhelmin' workload that it takes
4
The shakin' off snakes, the pains and the aches
5
Wrong moves and mistakes, they disrupt
6
Corrupt and distract you from your mission
7
And all those who let go and spend their lives wishin' and missin'
8
I couldn't listen in school, I felt I had a different callin'
9
But all everybody did was roll their eyes and start yawnin'
10
But this is real life and only you is livin' through your eyes
11
There are dreamers, those who want it and us, who won't be denied
12
It's a struggle every day, success is far from fuckin' free
13
Unless you plucked it from a tree with J and ICP
14
Shaggy 2 Dope and Violent J refuse to lose
15
Livin' proof do what you got and you can do what you choose
16
Hate to sit back on this track like a little bitch and reminisce
17
But instead I'll kick a little history all about the hatchet
18
By this time in the game, most motherfuckers fell apart
19
In these years we still shinin' and we now just gettin' our start
20
Inner City Posse jumped on the scene and we was mad crewed up
21
In the end when shit got rough it was just the two of us
22
When you was in the club getting' ya grind and ya sip on
23
We was in the parkin' lot gettin' our flyers on
24
Did my first show when I was sixteen, it's still part of my scheme
25
J holdin' out a drive-thru window at Burger King to support our dreams
26
It seemed like yesterday, the world wasn't ready for two clown freaks
27
But we kept grindin', now who on whose dick, lil' bitch shit
28
We kept hustlin'
29
We kept grindin'
30
I woke up in the mornin' with my head on backwards
31
Went from street livin' to an underground master
32
Went from sellin' baggies in allies to sellin' from here to Cali'
33
And rollin' with the Psychopathic family
34
I started up with Krazees, hooked up with Violent J
35
The rest is still being written like a biography
36
Don't think you know my story 'cause there's too much to tell
37
Just know that I've been underground and I've been doin' well
38
Since the days of makin' tapes in the basement
39
We came a long way, I'd like to see you do the same shit
40
Monoxide and I'm Twiztid with a Z
41
Carnival representin' 'til I D-I-E
42
We met ICP way back, tourin' once or twice
43
They was real cool, felt like we known 'em all our life
44
They said, "You ever wanna side with them?"
45
We was like, "Hell yeah, we down the ground with friends"
46
They put us out, this was way before the family era
47
When we toured for three years with a t-shirt
48
Gettin' mixed response from the bleachers and show-goers
49
Prepared for rock-throwers and flame-throwers, we stayed focused
50
In '98 we dropped our first LP
51
Psychopathic presentin' Twiztid Mostasteless, the CD
52
Go out and get it, bitch, shit is cold as ice
53
So dope that we released it twice and we still here
54
We kept hustlin'
55
We kept grindin'
56
It started as a guest, I moved later to a real spot
57
Worked behind the scenes before I really got a shot
58
In the studio, twistin' still need jsdflkjlk;jsdflkdfjdf
59
My skills got me the deal off the CD you know it's dope
60
But it was on now in '99, the first GOTJ
61
Ya, Dead Homie Blaze and ABK rippin' the stage
62
The first time I ever got to grind in the sunshine
63
Six minutes shorter, the EP's full play time
64
Still confusin' some, give love for One Less G
65
That's when we moved to the streets and people started hearin' me
66
From Colton Grundy to Clockwork Grey my skills increased
67
Don't believe me? Pick up my next CD
68
I keep it grindin' like an old set of car brakes
69
Started off with a duel player and cassette tapes
70
By '95 my life was frustrated so I developed my mentals
71
And let the funk recreate it
72
And then I hit the stage with my homie Blaze, thuggin' for life
73
City to city tours under the light
74
Straight outta Detroit grindin' Warrior, baby
75
I ain't never gonna stop, my heat's never on safety
76
This is Psychopathic bitch boy and we so sweet
77
What you know about the label runnin' under the streets?
78
This be Anybody Killa, homie, like me or not
79
Over a hundred thousand sold, bitch, with one 'bout to drop
80
For real
81
We kept hustlin'
82
We kept grindin'
83
Motherfuckers don't trip, I'm one of the youngest homies on the
84
And keepin' it grindin' with a
85
And on my way to the fuckin' top
86
Because we underneath the surface be prepared to be real hurt, bitch
87
We came from the gutter and now I'm fuckin' your mother and workin' it
88
I know I'm only 24 up in this hoe but check it, yo
89
I was smokin' it before some of y'all was even startin' to grow
90
Some of y'all don't even know, so many shows by eighteen
91
And by my twenty-first I was on the national scene
92
And see, been given an opportunity to speak my words and, yo
93
Be keepin' it wicked and run with the hatchet for show
94
So slow your roll, my name is Bonez and this be O-T
95
We murderin' fucks 'til the sun comes up that's why they call us A.M.B
96
Hey, homie, I hope you listen to my rappin'
97
,Cause rappin' is all I have it's all that every fuckin' mattered
98
Your heart can get shattered your pockets can get fatter
99
Just grind like me and mine and you'll shine like my family
100
In the beginnin' my mission was to make it to the hatchet
101
Then I did it and started laughin', I grinded and look what happened
102
My mind is not on this planet 'cause y'all thought that we vanished
103
But god's hand got my back and the game still gets me fuckin' mad
104
I start poppin' off at the mouth when somethin' bothers me
105
You motherfuckers better give it up for R.O.C
106
You motherfuckers better give it up for A.M.B
107
DJ Clay mix-tapes, gettin' paid and makin' haters bleed
108
We kept hustlin'
109
We kept grindin'
110
All the blood and the tears I spent on over the years
111
And all the time on the grind I conquered most of my fears
112
Not knowin' would I make it and was it worth the sacrifice
113
Skippin' meals and skippin' bills, I hoped that it was worth the price
114
Of the love of my kids and would they hate me in the end
115
For all the time I didn't spend I knew I'd have to make amends
116
So kept the mike in one hand the other gripped on my glock
117
Kept one eye on the prize, the other fixed up on the clock
118
It was a hustler in my heart who let me know I wouldn't fail
119
Would I end up on the stage or would I end up in a cell?
120
Then one Monday afternoon I got that call from Psychopathic
121
Put the pistol in the drawer and now I'm runnin' with the hatchet
122
(Woo-woo)
123
We kept hustlin'
124
We kept grindin'
125
I was sixteen young and was never put on
126
But was put down strong and when Big Rude gave me a call
127
Sayin' that the wicked clowns had a party called Big Ballas
128
And if I want to come spin and make a couple dollars
129
St. Andrew's Hall
130
(Yeah)
131
Remember it all
132
(Yeah)
133
When I went into this game who knew I would last this long
134
Then when '06 came around you can fuck the fuck off
135
It was me and Shaggy 2 Dope, I was on my first tour
136
And little did I know it was the first of many more
137
Now I'm pushin' out mix-tapes for the juggalos
138
And the love I get from them keeps me higher than some dro
139
That's why I'm standin' here
140
Arms crossed just to let you know how we
141
We kept hustlin'
142
We kept grindin'
