(PCrisco)

I'll take my chances in traffic
I ride with a ratchet
If niggas got some smoke, I'ma ash it
I don't really talk about action
When it's time that I'm flashin'
I be rappin', bitch, but murder my passion

I'll take my chances in traffic
I ride with a ratchet
Now go up, and bitches ain't for no passion
With that forty, nigga, I can do magic
I'm really 'bout action
I'd rather take my chances in traffic

I still ride through the ghetto
They say it's money on my head though
I turn a gangsta to a scared ho
They want me dead, but it's too late though
I'm really a baller, check my background
I move smart, but never back down
I really seen a nigga face down
Ay, I really know how that Drac' sound

We keep that pistol close, but we ain't never scared
Keep them snakes far, they talk to the feds
Play with one of mine, we fill 'em up with lead
If I see you as a opp, then you already dead

I'll take my chances in traffic
I ride with a ratchet
If niggas got some smoke, I'ma ash it
I don't really talk about action
When it's time that I'm flashin'
I be rappin', bitch, but murder my passion

I'll take my chances in traffic
I ride with a ratchet
Now go up, and bitches ain't for no passion
With that forty, nigga, I can do magic
I'm really 'bout action
I'd rather take my chances in traffic (yeah)

I been with the shit, did the shit that they ain't 'bout
Penny for your thoughts, could give a fuck what you think for
Bust a nigga brain, check my aim, nigga, bing-bow
Never stand down, bitch, my mama raised a gangsta
Draco, Smith & Wesson, forty Glock, I got options
I can send my hitter, but I'll be the one to pop some
Beat a nigga block up, why you got your Glock tucked?
Hit the pawn shop and go spend soon as I cop something

It's all
It's all
It's all
It's all

I'll take my chances in traffic
I ride with a ratchet
If niggas got some smoke, I'ma ash it
I don't really talk about action
When it's time that I'm flashin'
I be rappin', bitch, but murder my passion

I'll take my chances in traffic
I ride with a ratchet
Now go up, and bitches ain't for no passion
With that forty, nigga, I can do magic




I'm really 'bout action
I'd rather take my chances in traffic
