Hook: Guru
30
Scandalous, money greed and lust
31
In this trife life, there ain't nobody you can trust
32
Plus there's no justice, it's just us
33
In fact, watchin' yo back it be must
34
And each and everyday around the way gats bust
35
And jealous so-called friends'll try to set you up
36
It's called betrayal
37
Verse 1: Guru
38
Check the horror scene
39
The kid was like twelve or thirteen
40
Never had the chance like other kids to follow dreams
41
Watched his father catch two in the dome and to the spleen
42
Nothin" but blood everywhere, these streets are mean
43
They spared his life, but killed his moms and his sister Jean
44
Of course over some drug shit
45
Hi spops was on some ill-out, spill your guts, on some thug shit
46
Didn't know his boys was on some shady ass no love shit
47
His pops got played out though, with silencers they laid him out yo
48
Took his stash and all the cash and left 'em, tied up on the couch yo
49
With tape over his mouth, so he couldn't cry out
50
cause his dad was the nigga with clout
51
Survival of the fittest so they split his wig no doubt
52
Despite the stocking caps he noticed the same cat, who used to give
53
him doe
54
and taught him, to use the same gat
55
Supposed to be an Uncle,fam and all that
56
He could tell it was him 'cause he wore the same slacks, he wore when
57
he took him to Meadowlands racetrack
58
Why did he flip and go out like that?
59
It's called betrayal
60
Hook

Verse 2: Scarface
62
A Betrayal
63
Punk ass niggas
64
It's called betrayal
65
He on a mission to become a ball player
66
Flip big Benz's, flossin all gators
67
Had it all mapped out,6-8,12th grader
68
Fresh outta school, he fin' to go lay paper
69
He had abrother who was hustlin collectin his change
70
Never let his baby brother stick his neck in the game
71
Told him all he had to do is just enjoy the ride
72
And he ain't have to worry about money cause that's in time
73
So now he's pacin as the time moves slowly
74
Can't wait to face Shaquille in the paint and school Kobe
75
Kept his grades and stayed up under naighborhood functions
76
And then a group of knuckleheads came through dumpin
77
So now he's sittin on the sidewalk bleedin
78
Fell into a puddle of his own blood and stopped breathin
79
And everybody in the neighborhood still grievin
80
But destiny caught up with his ass and he got even
81
And all the cryin in the world ain't goin to bring him back
82
his brother, sittin at the wake wipin tears from his mother's eyes
83
Why'd the game have to go and take the young boys life
84
Only the wicked live shife, payin the price
85
while he's starin at the shell
86
his brothers soul wants hell the trigger man made bail
87
and you, wouldn't pay the boys mail, and sacrificed the fuckin family
88
That's betrayal
