(Goontex)
In Izaya Tiji's song "Better Off Alone 2," Goontex's verse is an aggressive and confident statement about his loyalty to his gang. He proudly proclaims that his "lil' dawgs" (referring to his associates) will take care of anyone who tries to challenge or harm them. Goontex seems to have a disregard for authority and rules, as he admits that he never listened to his pastor's advice and that he enjoys taking drugs like Percocets. He also acknowledges that his lifestyle is different from most people's, as he is constantly surrounded by money and drugs, which sets him apart from the average person. Despite this, he is unapologetic and refuses to change his ways.
The last few lines of the verse describe Goontex's ruthlessness and his desire for revenge. He says that his "lil' dawgs" want real blood, and he plans to send them after his enemies with a MAC-10 gun. He is confident that they will succeed and promises to count his money once the job is done. Overall, Goontex's verse conveys a sense of toughness and unwavering loyalty to his gang, as well as a willingness to take extreme measures to protect themselves.
