1
[Omega]
2
Where I was born, nothing is promised
3
My life is filled with less hope than the prophecies of Nostradamus
4
Omega marks the ending of predictability, birth of agility
5
Who will it be to test me and expose their futility.
6
Iron like a lion from Zion stop tryin' so hard,
7
I think I smell your brain cells fryin'.
8
The family's behind you if you're worthy
9
Philosophies developed deep in the back streets of dirty Jersey
10
Troops with scully hats and Timberland boots
11
No more break-dancing for loot.
12
Niggas hustle and shoot
13
In the Garden State, it grows stink weeds and criminals
14
Government funds are minimal
15
Oppression's subliminal
16
[Wyclef]
17
These days its hard for we to find peace of mind
18
Between insanity and sanity there lies a thin line.
19
Some dwell in hotels with Jezebels
20
A stone age and fall a victim to the Plague
21
Unclean bad dreams of Wyclef being a fiend,
22
One last kiss from my sweet serpentine
23
Eliminate then break,
24
Navigate to rejuvenate thoughts of suicide with my nickel plate.
25
Reconciliation came from my enemy-friend
26
Who said family don't bend
27
We stay silent till the end.
28
Now who would think that your best friend
29
Would be your worst enemy and your enemy your best friend.
30
Stare into the air inspiration from the atmosphere
31
I think of old ghosts, that ain't even here.
32
Like Alex Haley take notes on this Biography
33
My family tree consists of street refugees.
34
A ghetto land, where we talk slang
35
Stolen cars bang, like my chitty bang-bang sh-bang
36
For the heads, we ain't sellin' cocaine today
37
So refrain and let my family reign okay
38
[Chorus: Omega]
39
Just walkin' the streets death can take you away
40
It's never guaranteed that you'll see the next day
41
At night the evil armies of Shaton don't play
42
So defend the family that's the code to obey
43
[Wyclef]
44
But if I fall asleep and death takes me away
45
Don't be surprised son, I wasn't put here to stay
46
At night the evil armies of Shaton don't play
47
So the family sticks together and we never betray
48
[Wyclef]
49
Nah fuck that
50
Fifty-two pick up, no cops around
51
Fifty-two thousand in cash, I don't want no savings bonds
52
Have the money ready, I smell something fishy
53
Your wife's in my custody
54
One false move and you'll find her body in the sea.
55
That's the voice of the kid, that's the kidnapper
56
I do my work and then I catch my ticket to Jamaica.
57
Meet me in the alley, make sure you bring the money
58
This ain't the seventies I'm far from a jive turkey
59
[Lauryn Hill]
60
My circle it can't be broken
61
Open, cut-throatin', provokin'
62
Record promotin, tokens chokin' on they words like smoke and.
63
Cause we soft spoken, doesn't mean that we've forgotten
64
Your bootie smells rotten and one day you will be gotten
65
See joker's is scatter-brained, their focus is unrestrained
66
My army is trained, you never find us beefin' in vain.
67
Cause I've seen fire and I've seen rain
68
You claim fame, while modest niggas remain.
69
I can judge a character like Ito judge a verdict
70
And if you bringin' threats I give you sex if I ain't heard it.
71
See poppin' shit's about your attitude and how you word it
72
I've seen the biggest niggas on the block get murdered
73
And they deserverd it
74
Or so the beast said when they served it ?
75
That shit is nervous
76
So what's my purpose?
77
Family, we must preserve it.
78
Your number's retired
79
I hope you like the hell fires
80
You'll be screamin' Murder she Wrote like Chaka Demus and Pliars.
81
[Chorus]
82
[Lauryn Hill]
83
If I should fall asleep and death takes me away
84
Don't be surprised son, I wasn't put here to stay
85
At night the evil armies of Shaton don't play
86
So the family stick together and we never betray.
87
[Forte]
88
We used to jump rope,
89
But now we gun hope
90
Bustin' shots off of project roof tops
91
Sending signals with the blunt smoke.
92
Ock, don't talk a lot if you can't hold it in lock
93
If you think lips sink ships,
94
Imagine full glock clips.
95
I hold a glass of Remy Martin
96
Gettin' milks by the carton
97
Extortin' the light weights for thinkin' they important
98
The night pays and heavenly ways
99
Ain't nothin' free ah
100
Knowledge of your family and steppin' to your B.I.
101
You see I, stay on top of shit like a fly
102
My niggas reach when they got beef
103
Then jet down to South Beach
104
Yo mouthpiece is yappin'
105
I hear it in your rap and
106
My family is thick so that bullshit could never happen.
107
[Chorus]
108
[Lauryn Hill]
109
If I should fall asleep and death takes me away
110
Don't be surprised son, I wasn't put here to stay
111
At night the evil armies of Shaton don't play
112
So the family stick together and we never betray.
