(Hook 3x) From the gutter to the grave / I'm ruff rugged and raw / Ruff rugged and raw / Yeah ruff rugged and raw
(verse 1) From the gutter to the grave / I'm ruff rugged and raw / Come at me wrong / I'll punch you in the jaw / So listen up y'all / I came to stand tall / But I'm low profile / Even when I ball / I don't wear diamonds / I don't wear bling / I get enough attention on my own / Know what I mean / So all you fake ones / Snake ones / Always try and take ones / It's your move / So go ahead and make one / Watch your step / Cause' I'm known for catchin' niggas / My boys be pullin' triggas / We all make bigga figures
(Hook 3x)
(Verse 2) From the gutter to the grave / What you get is what you see / Like Rashad Al-Amin / I'm just bein' me / I don't explain my actions / Cause' I don't give a damn / Don't care who you are / Just know who i am / I'm that nigga in the cut / Ain't got nothin' to lose / Come around my way / You best not snooze / Or get battered and bruised / Taken for all you got / You're not from here / So stay off my block / I'm from Homewood-Brushton / So no matter where I stay / H-Town, Texas / Or Pittsburgh, Pa. / In the P.R.C. / Or the U.S.A. / I'm ruff / Ruff rugged and raw
(Hook 3x)
(Verse 3) From the gutter to the grave / I was born to make hits / Born to get rich / Born to lick clits / Yeah I do that shit so well / I make you cum quick / So open up wide / So I can get a lick / Cause' I'm that nigga in the corner / That got your bitch lookin' / Don't be mistooken / I will take your woman / I'm not The Rock / But I bet you smell what I'm cookin' / Lyrically dominant / My presence is prominent / Whatever I release / There's no stoppin' it / The public's lovin' me / I'm financially worry free / Cause' I'm the emcee / That others envy / I make hits / So my money will grow / Won't jeopardize my cash / For any man or any ho / I just flow / On and on like Badu / So excuse me please while I sneeze / Achoo / Al-hamdu-illah / All praise to Allah / If not for his will / I wouldn't be this far / Not I'm out the gutter / And my life has changed / The only question now is / How long before the grave
