When All Hell Breaks Loose
MC Eiht Lyrics

No camouflage, better get the mirage
We can't afford to hide, we need to be smart and figure out how to navigate this dangerous situation

Soul Assassins squad straight from the garage
We are a group of skilled and ruthless individuals who are ready to take on any challenge

Benjamin stacks, craps is what I play
I'm all about making money and taking risks to get it

First dream: where's the cream so I can parlay
My priority is always to make money so I can turn it into even more money

Ain't no joke - ugh - and no mistakes allowed
This is a life and death situation and we cannot afford to make any mistakes

Crack packs flips, uh, while I moves the crowd
I'm making drug deals while putting on a show for my fans

Po-po be stoppin' the low-lows, fo' sho' those
The police are targeting us and we need to be careful when driving our lowrider cars

Hate to see me, too blind like Stevie
The police are so focused on catching us that they can't even see the bigger picture

Greedy cause I'm needy for ash, gas and cash
I'm driven by my desire for money, drugs, and power

Same song like re-runs of fuckin' M.A.S.H.
My life is repetitive and never-ending, like the TV show M.A.S.H.

Boom Bam keeps the stash locked, son, you know the real
My partner Boom Bam is keeping our illegal stash secure and under control

?Four punks layin in your bumper?, so you're best to jump
If you see us and our lowriders, it's best to get out of our way or risk getting hurt

Bird thumps the fo' do' S-S, no stress
My friend Bird is playing loud music from his car and is ready for anything

D.A., no deal, uh, no contest
I'm not going to make any deals with the District Attorney and I'm not even going to try to fight my charges

False arrest like Al Capone and Elliott Ness
I have been arrested unfairly, like some of the infamous criminals in history

You better be protected
If you're going to be associated with me, you need to be ready for anything

My barrel starts ejectin
I'm always prepared to use my gun if necessary

Reflectin on your past life as you pass through
When you're in a dangerous situation, you start to think about the life you've lived and the choices you've made

On your way to your second life, bitch, fuck you
You might be going to a better place soon, but right now you're still in trouble and I don't have any sympathy for you

Shoot 'em up, oh, shoot 'em up, oh yeah
We're not afraid to use our guns and we're ready for any fight

Be a stick-up kid
We're willing to rob and extort people to get what we want

Look what I done did
I'm proud of my criminal activities and I'm not afraid to show it

One times is hot, so I best stay hid
The police are nearby and I need to hide from them

y'all don't know the story
You don't understand what it's like to live my life

Be a hero and die for the glory
I'm not interested in being a hero or dying for anyone else's cause

The C.P.T.'s the plantation
We're stuck in a cycle of poverty and crime that's difficult to escape

Serves the china white to whoever is waitin'
I sell drugs to anyone who is willing to buy them

Ain't no debatin'
There's no point in arguing about what's right and wrong in this situation

No player-hatin', son
I'm not going to criticize or oppose other drug dealers

Who's afraid of the big black wolf?
I'm a powerful and intimidating figure that people respect and fear

Spittin', keeps hittin' from the top of the roof
I'm a rapper who uses my music to express my violent and criminal lifestyle

We be's the bomb, no shit
We're powerful and successful in our criminal activities

Heavy weights, get it straight, ?cap pound? the hood rats
We're serious about our criminal business and don't tolerate any disrespect from anyone

No needs to switch, still here's the click
We're loyal to each other and don't need to make any changes to our criminal organization

Any fool that's tryin' to regulate my bitch
I won't let anyone interfere with my girlfriend or my criminal activities

One more do' left open, so I can stalk
I'm always looking for new victims to rob or hurt

Drop me off in the cut, don't come back to this, dog
I need to be dropped off in a hidden location and I don't want anyone to follow me or come back to it

Likes to draw blood, so just call me the vampire
I'm violent and aggressive and enjoy hurting other people

Knick knack patty wack
This is a nonsense phrase that doesn't have a particular meaning or significance

Beware for the attack or the fuckin' car jack
You need to be careful when driving or you might be robbed or attacked by someone like me

Oops... smacked upside your head
I enjoy physically hurting people and don't feel any remorse for my violent behavior

Killin and killin until my appetite is fed
I'm addicted to violence and crime and will do anything to satisfy my cravings

Everybody duck down when all hell breaks loose
When things get dangerous, everyone needs to be careful and stay out of harm's way

All my niggas gon' shoot when all hell breaks loose
My friends and criminal associates are all prepared to defend themselves in a violent situation
