Recycled Assassins
Xzibit Lyrics

There's no escape from the ones who harassin'
It's impossible to get away from those who cause trouble.

The reason for the illin' is the reason for askin' now
The reason why things are going wrong is now being questioned.

I try to school 'em on the killin' and blastin'
I attempt to teach them about the violence and shooting.

But season after season they recycle assassins now
However, they continue to reuse hitmen time and again.

He's too advanced for his own good
He's too intelligent for his own well-being.

He didn't get a second chance to see the Glock pointed at his hood
He didn't get another opportunity to realize that a gun was aimed at him.

Makin' his way through the rain he's caught in the game
He's trying to navigate through tough times but is stuck in a dangerous lifestyle.

He felt the pain of a slug to the back of the brain
He experienced the agony of a bullet hitting the back of his head.

Nothin's changed in a city flask
Nothing has altered in his town and it is stagnant like a flask of liquid.

Where niggas lurk in black shirts pants and low hats, forever
People are always lurking and hiding in black clothing with low hats.

Until the job is done and no one's left
The task is not finished until there's nobody remaining to testify.

My man Jeff told me with his very last breath to watch mom's
Jeff informed me with his final words to protect my mother.

But they got her with the car bomb
Her adversaries killed her using a car bomb.

Popst tried to save her second blast got his arm
Popst made an attempt to save her but got shot in the arm in the process.

Niggas play for keeps like casino
People play with serious risks like in a casino.

Baby's has got fathers just got back from doin' Chino
Kids have fathers who just got out of the prison named Chino.

With nothin' to lose loose screws in the attic
People with nothing to live for are unstable.

Only skill a nigga knows is how to strip an automatic
The only talent they have is disassembling a firearm.

And stash the barrel stab a nigga something terrible
They hide the gun and can use it to inflict severe harm on someone.

Death resume twenty kill in incredible time
Their collection of fatalities has grown quickly.

No guilt and shame, on the mind
They don't feel remorse or regret for their actions.

Stuff a nigga just for lookin' didn't know he was blind, so I find
They kill somebody just for glancing at them, unknowing of their blindness.

Mankind is a serious threat
Humanity poses a significant danger.

To another others kind when there's something to get
When there's something to gain, humans pose a danger to others.

In a vet with fast jet to the spot
They quickly rush to the scene by driving a car or using a jet.

To see what they got, nobody saw shit 'cause it's not
They're disappointed because they couldn't locate what they expected and nobody noticed because it wasn't significant.

Cool to brake the rule of the code of the streets
It's not acceptable to break the rules of the street code.

Niggas frightened by the visions of the blood on the sheets
People are scared of the sight of blood on the bed sheets.

And it's deep how blood drys as a mother cries
It's intense how blood dries as the mother weeps.

Open eyes gettin' landed on by flys
Flies have settled on the person's open eyes.

I came from a family of one girl and three boys
I grew up with one girl and three boys in my family.

Fuck playin' with toys our fun was on the block
We didn't play with toys, we had fun hanging out on the street.

Watchin' all the cats negotiate the neighborhood stock
We observed individuals negotiating deals in the neighborhood.

My job was to come runnin' whenever cops was comin'
My responsibility was to alert others when the police arrived.

My older brother I figure was the ring leader
My older brother was possibly the leader of the group.

Whenever these cats move they all bring heaters
Whenever these individuals go out, they always carry guns.

All black and nickel plated (come on)
The firearms are all black and have nickel plating.

Soon became fascinated bitches cars and kicks
They eventually grew interested in girls, cars, and shoes.

And look at how fast they made it
They quickly progressed in life.

My younger brother gave less than a fuck
My younger brother didn't care at all.

He was content with G.I. Joe and Tonka trucks
He was happy playing with toys such as G.I Joe and Tonka trucks.

But I want butts, livin' first class deluxe
But I desired women and a luxurious lifestyle.

Fifteen year old soldier ready to serve these clucks
I was ready to serve people as a soldier at age fifteen.

My older brother was touched
My older brother was affected by the lifestyle.

It's a game where you don't play gotta have cane
It's a serious game, and you must have drugs to participate.

Crack house for my birthday
For my birthday, I went to a house where crack was sold.

The next day my brother shot in cold blood by the police
The following day, my brother was shot without justification by the police.

In a rage he lived but he payed the price
He lived with anger but was ultimately punished.

Caught with keys 25 to life
He was sentenced to 25 years to life for being caught with drugs.

Takin' in by the crew time to standin' on my own two
I was taken in by the group but had to face life on my own.

But as I marinated thinkin' about the hood
As I pondered about the neighborhood and its issues.

I really can't remember anybody doin' good for long
I can't think of anyone who has succeeded for a long time.

Big decisions somebody's got to make 'em
Substantial choices need to be made by someone.

Undercovers recognize the face now can't shake a
Undercover cops recognize the face and can't forget it.

Phone tap and now I'm in the belly of the beast
My phone was wiretapped, and now I'm in deep trouble.

Used to sittin' in leather seats now I'm sittin' awaitin' release
I used to relax in comfortable seats, but now I'm waiting to be released from jail.

Visitors day, my younger brother came down
On visiting day, my younger brother came to see me.

Put the toys down excited about the first round
He stopped playing with toys and was excited for his first boxing match.

He bust I was crushed to finally see
He got arrested, and I was devastated to witness it.

The solution to the problem could have started with me but it's on now
I had the power to initiate a solution to the problem, but it's not too late to make changes.

There's no escape!
It is impossible to escape the dangerous lifestyle.
