Verse 2 (Prodigy)

Fuck it, it's the life of a shooting star, gotta move smart
Can’t get caught slipping, they all wanna see me fall
Take my punches like a trooper, take my losses like a man 
It come with the territory, take the good with the bad
Throw the dice, watch them tumble, where they land—so be it 
Everything is not strategic; sometimes we risk our life
Sometimes we risk our love, our money, and our freedom 
That bullshit, we feed it, to see if you gonna eat it 
In New York, we manipulate naive dummies 
We beat you on the head, it's just game we be running sometime 
But most of the time, we don’t play 
They can’t figure us out—we like it that way (We like it that way) 
The road to the riches so long our feet catch blisters
All these crabs in the bucket, pull you down tryna get up 
Every man for they self, every woman want bags and shoes 
We the type of people that’ll find you (Find you)
