Lyrics[]

Verse 1
Lucious:

It's like Scarface and then some
Crazy intense world
Better back away
Bang bang
Bang bang

Jamal:
Daddy, here's your note
Do a little hustle when we rock the flow
When I'll flip the script

Lucious:
Gotta throw a little country and whoop the trick

Chorus
Jamal with Lucious:

Sometimes you only get one try (Gotta give it all ya got)
'Cause I ain't got nothing (go get em)
To lose (You get 'em)
So much, to prove (okay)
I get too far to hear "no!" (Gotta go hard or go home)
'Cause I ain't got nothing to lose (Baby do whatcha gotta do)

Verse 2
Lucious with Jamal:

(La da da da da da da da, mmm)
Ay, feeling like a pack of fleas
Looking for a basset hound
Maybe you should talk to Steve
See if he could put us down

Jamal with Lucious:
How the hell did my back get against the wall? (Get your back up off the wall!)

Hell no, at least I don't have to worry about the fall



Chorus 2
Jamal with Lucious:

Sometimes you only get one shot (Gotta give it all ya got)
Cause I ain't got nothing (Go get 'em)
To lose (you get 'em)
So much, to prove (okay)
I get too far to hear "no!"
(Gotta go hard or go home)
Say, I ain't got nothing to lose
To lose, to lose

Jamal with Lucious:
Oh god I'm Britney!
Gotta do what you gotta do

Verse 3
Lucious:

Hey baby doll, what did I just do?
I'm hoping on you to come on through (Eh, eh)
Hey baby got you love about you too
Dormez-vous?

Chorus
Jamal with Lucious:

I ain't got nothing to lose (You're so crazy, lock stock barrel)
All things, to prove (You're so shady, with a heart of gold)

Chorus 2
Jamal and Lucious:

You're so crazy, lock stock barrel
You're so shady, with a heart of gold

Chorus 2
Jamal with Lucious:

Feeling like a pack of fleas
Looking for a basset hound
See if he could put us down
