Unfriendly Game - Masta Ace/Stricklin[00:00:00]
I'm about to take this beat and teach you bout the agony of defeat[00:00:10]
In this football game in the street[00:00:13]
And no it ain't two hand touch it's rough tackle[00:00:15]
When niggas ball on your block and they bust at you[00:00:17]
The field's full of players and they all trying to score[00:00:20]
The whole team sits on the bench in the down pour[00:00:22]
Cause no matter the weather the game don't stop[00:00:25]
Competing with other teams that reign on top[00:00:27]
Your offense gotta be cats with no conscience[00:00:30]
No nonsense niggas with no options[00:00:33]
That know how to carry that rock[00:00:36]
Make the hand off and run off the block[00:00:38]
It's hard to get first down when your new in this rough town[00:00:40]
You sell a pound it's a touchdown[00:00:44]
And niggas see the pigskin they blast cops[00:00:45]
So federal agents dress as mascots[00:00:48]
Niggas hold weight but it's not for lifting[00:00:50]
The only white lines is the ones niggas sniffing[00:00:53]
I know it sounds a bit different the only quarter is a quarter ki[00:00:55]
If that ain't a penalty it ought be[00:00:58]
And the concession stand is so sick[00:01:01]
Serving you the cat rat and dog on a stick[00:01:03]
But if you ask why somebody got slain[00:01:06]
Yo it's just an unfriendly game[00:01:08]
The game don't stop cats keep playing[00:01:10]
Some got hit hard and wound up laying[00:01:12]
Out in the field but the fans keep paying[00:01:15]
Understand what I'm saying[00:01:18]
It's just an unfriendly game[00:01:19]
This ain't America is it[00:01:22]
This ain't America is it[00:01:27]
Where can I be[00:01:29]
Yo a'yo it's Monday night[00:01:30]
We on some watch the game shit[00:01:31]
But I can go outside and still see the same shit[00:01:33]
Cause look there's a bunch of niggas in a huddle[00:01:35]
Looks like they calling the play[00:01:38]
Come on kids don't be all in the way[00:01:39]
Cause that's pookie he the f**king quarterback[00:01:41]
Cause he like to use the shotgun if he don't I know he got one[00:01:43]
And that's budda he the f**king running back[00:01:46]
Cause he always say he gone quit[00:01:48]
And he always wind up running back[00:01:49]
The rest of them[00:01:51]
I'll just say they play the line[00:01:52]
Cause they like to protect pookie and pookie make them stay in line[00:01:53]
And if they make a wrong move they penalized[00:01:56]
Not by the referee but by pookie brother Jeffery[00:01:58]
And Jeff don't touch shit he sit and watch[00:02:00]
Oversees the whole block from his own private luxury box[00:02:03]
He the one that makes the deals happen[00:02:06]
Smoking big cigars while his stars are in the field scrapping[00:02:08]
But tonight the line of scrimmage got penetrated[00:02:11]
The block got raided and everybody got traded[00:02:13]
Now they wearing stripes in a pen[00:02:16]
Guess that's how the game go[00:02:17]
Nigga you don't know[00:02:19]
Highlights at 10[00:02:20]
Wednesday police arrested 12 men in a downtown drug raid[00:02:21]
The cartel known on the streets as the sharks[00:02:24]
Was transporting large amounts of marijuana[00:02:26]
In shipments of little league football equipment[00:02:28]
There's a new team in from out of town[00:02:31]
What's the sound[00:02:33]
Out of bounds[00:02:35]
And the front line niggas stay ready for the blitz sonny[00:02:36]
So you won't make a sack of money[00:02:39]
And every now and then somebody drops the ball[00:02:41]
And the next team be right there to take it all[00:02:43]
Now somebody new is trying to make a score in your territory[00:02:46]
It's the same old story[00:02:49]
And if you want your corner back you better wear a vest[00:02:51]
Just in case you gotta catch a bullet to the chest[00:02:53]
Believe me that shit can be a humdinger[00:02:56]
Cause every quarterback in this league's a gunslinger[00:02:58]
The half time show's kinda ill[00:03:01]
Hood rat bitches dancing to dru hill[00:03:03]
Another nigga down and out[00:03:06]
A crackhead with no name yo[00:03:07]
It's just an unfriendly game[00:03:09]
The game don't stop cats keep playing[00:03:11]
Some got hit hard and wound up laying[00:03:13]
Out in the field but the fans keep paying[00:03:16]
Understand what I'm saying[00:03:18]
It's just an unfriendly game[00:03:20]
This ain't America is it[00:03:22]
This ain't America is it[00:03:27]
Where can I be[00:03:29]
