Chorus: Treach
Till death do us, can't move us
We can rat-tat-a-tat-tat-a or build, it don't matter
Holler if you hear this, realness
Thugs gon' feel this, Brooklyn banger Jersey jackin
Steal shit

[Billy Danze]

Now we have met and connect with a lot of different MC's [sho nuff]
Raised hell to a lot of different degrees
And we have the Constitution of Rights to bear arms
To flare arms, whenever we fear harm
It's near [yeah, clack clack], keep it right
If you pro gang, you don't belong around here soldier
I'm like fish scale, without the pedastool
Come to teach the new school, true school jewels
I'm never followin them fools, I'm a real stand up dude
I makes my own motherfuckin rules
So what's it gonna be, let me know
Bucka bucka blow, bucka blow blow, there you go
And we foul to eliminate these habits
And the best way is to eliminate these faggots
All disrespect attended
To anybody who may be affended, by the way I represented
And I'm no stranger, to danger
Dance with a strange man in a field with anger
Now ain't that ghetto, for ya
Cock sucka, we will proceed to squeeze and sproll muthafuckas

Chorus

Hook: Treach
Till death ditty do us, and they say tough tough ditty to us
We'll be stompin bitches till they shoot us, get wild
*repeated*

[Lil Fame]
Who wanna go against the man, that walked across hot fire
Banned for the kicked down door for my whole empire
Rapid fire, [First Family], Rapid Fire, [M.O.P.]
See, I know a lot, seen a lot, don' been through a lot
Took a lot, never took a shot
God forbid, If I took a hot slug for a reason
Try to understand my pain, roll up some trees an'
Reminisce on them feels I was bringin
Spark up a L, while you got the M.O.P. shit bangin
Listen to the words of a nigga, represent that
You see I really meant that, for the memories I left back
Lil Fame never was a shady ass nigga
When it was on, we scar fools and a gravy ass nigga
So when you crack ya bottle and you pour ya liquor holla at me
[Fizzy Woe Mack] That was my nigga

Chorus

[Treach]
You did ya hit you had to do most
Five minutes and you go
Comin with ya new show, and watch ya get sumo
Doin this shit since gettin whipped for wastin grtis
And sneakin out when mom had late shifts and same mix
Snakes quit, I flip up flops and fuck flows
I fuck up ya fun and they don't care who the fuck knows
I'm sutile followed and find and fucked up
Before I take out my garbage I frisk a whole dump truck
My pump what, so pump up tracks belack back
Roll crazy with eighty rollin in stollin jack act
Jersey's on the map for car jacks and gat smacks
I'm on the map for bringin the bitch outta niggas on wax
What, with M.O.P.

(several names and shit shouted out)

Chorus

Yea, salute, salute

Overall Meaning

The verses of the song Get Wild by A.D.P are dominated by bravado and aggression, filled with vivid images of violence and a willingness to stand up to anyone who might threaten the rapper's crew or their way of life. The chorus by Treach reinforces this message, stating that no matter what happens or who tries to stop them, they will not be deterred from living their lives as they see fit. The verses also touch on classic hip hop themes like respect, honor, and the right to bear arms for protection, while the hook encourages listeners to join in the celebration of hardship and struggle that has molded them into who they are.

One of the most interesting facts about the song is its history; originally released in 2002 by M.O.P. on their album Mash Out Posse, Get Wild was later remixed and re-released in 2008 by A.D.P. featuring Lil Fame, Billy Danze, and Treach of Naughty by Nature. The beat was produced by Ron Browz, who later went on to produce chart-topping hits for rappers like Nas and Jim Jones. Despite being a remix, the A.D.P. version of Get Wild is often regarded as the definitive version by fans of the genre, and has continued to be a staple of hip hop playlists since its release.

Another interesting aspect of the song is the way it blends elements of different regional sounds, such as the gritty, streetwise style of Brooklyn and the more laid-back and lighthearted "Jersey sound." This is reflected not only in the lyrics and delivery of the rappers, but also in the production, which combines hard-hitting drums and percussion with synths and samples that evoke a sense of nostalgia and playfulness.

Other notable features of the song include the powerful vocal performances from Lil Fame, Billy Danze, and Treach, who all bring their signature styles and personalities to the mic. The song also features some impressive wordplay and creative use of slang and colloquialisms, such as the lines "I'm like fish scale, without the pedestal" and "I'm sutile followed and find and fucked up." Additionally, the song's hook is catchy and instantly memorable, with Treach's gravelly voice shouting out the chorus over a driving beat and horn sample.

As for the chords of the song, they are not readily available as Get Wild is a heavily sample-based hip-hop track. However, aspiring musicians could try transcribing the horn melody or drum pattern to recreate some of the song's energy and impact on their own instruments.
