[DMX:]
  Uh. Yea. Uh. If you love something let it go, if it
  comes back to you it's yours. If it doesn't, it never was.
  Hold me down baby
    [Chorus(2x):]
  Either let me fly, or give me death
  Let my soul rest, take my breath
  If I don't fly I'ma die anyway, I'ma live on
  but I'll be gone any day
    Hold me down, niggaz wanna know me now
  Didn't want ta play wit' me when to show me how
  No meow
  Is it all about the bark?
  Let the dog lose baby it's about to spark
  Light up the night, like the 4th of July
  Niggaz know, when I let go, niggaz die
  wit' this Y and you don't know you slow like Baltimore
  If you ain't tryin' ta go ya blow
  I soke up all the pain and except it in silence
  When I let go it's violence cause the wildest
  leaves the dog barkin' up the tree for the cat
  in the fog but ya'll niggaz see is the bat
  Flappin' away wit' em blind like Stevy
  Niggas don't hear me, still tryin' to see me
  Stop being greedy, ya heard what I said
  Let me go, let me flow on my bed
    [Chorus(2x)]
    I sold my soul to the devil, and the price was cheap
  A yo it's cold on this level cause it's twice as deep
  But you don't hear me, ignorance is blisning and so on
  Sometimes it's better to be taught dumb
  Shall I go on
  You don't want no real, what the deal is a mystery
  How is it I can live and make history
  If you don't see it then it, wasn't ment for you to see
  If you wasn't born wit' it then, it wasn't ment for you to be
  But you can't blame me for not wantin' to be hound
  lock down in a cell wit' a soul gettin' dwelled
  This is hell, go get the devil and get me the key
  but can't be worst than the curse that was given ta me
  It's what I live for, you take away that and I'm gone
  There's a difference between, doin' wrong and being wrong
  and that ain't right
  Just keep it fair baby
  Put me in the year, and I'll take it there baby
  Yes
    [Chorus(2x)]
    I'm a flow regardless because I'm an artist until I'm trapped
  I'ma continue to hit he hardest whether I scrap or rap
  Give me death but you ain't my friend
  I see it in your eyes, you contemplate my end
  You waitin' for that bin in the road, where you were told
  that you would go, when you were old
  and if you died young, it was told
  So what the dilly, what it was worth
  Think back 26 years, be like what of his birth
  What if it was a miscarriage and I never existed
  Have I given something that have been taken away you
  would of missed it
  Didn't know, did I persisted?
  It was the call of the wild
  I'm here to say what's in my heart, and you call it a style
  Don't put it in the cage, don't mistreat it
  You say you hunger for knowledge, here it is eat it
  Another soul completed is another thought captured
  Let me do my thing I got it locked wit' this rap shit
    [Chorus(2x)]
    Or give me death, uh uh uh, or take my breath
  I'ma die anyway, but I'll be gone any day
  Where my niggaz?
  [3x] Uh ha ha, for my niggaz
