Settle It

Intro

Yeah

Uh

Whole block on my side tonight

Yeah

Verse 1

Came from the corner where the pavement split

Every single scar on my knuckles legit

I ain't never needed nobody to vouch

Broke jaw off a punk for running his mouth

Twenty-three summers I been in the mix

Ain't a soul in this city that I gotta fix

Money come quiet then it come in a flood

Still got a temper and it's soaked in blood

Pre-Chorus

So who want the smoke

Who want the smoke

Tell me right now

Tell me right now

Chorus

Put 'em up put 'em up let's settle it

I don't do the talking I do the damage

Put 'em up put 'em up let's settle it

I don't do the talking I do the damage

Nobody walking away from this clean

Nobody walking away

Nobody walking away from this clean

I said what I said and I meant what I mean

Post-Chorus

Bow

Bow

Yeah yeah

Bow

Verse 2

Listen

My brother called said they circling the block

I told him sit tight let the engine get hot

We don't chase we just wait we just watch

Fifteen minutes later they knocking on the spot

I opened it slow with a grin on my face

Told 'em welcome to nowhere enjoy your stay

Fists started flying like hail on the glass

Only thing left was a shoe and some cash

Pre-Chorus

So who want the smoke

Who want the smoke

Tell me right now

Tell me right now

Chorus

Put 'em up put 'em up let's settle it

I don't do the talking I do the damage

Put 'em up put 'em up let's settle it

I don't do the talking I do the damage

Nobody walking away from this clean

Nobody walking away

Nobody walking away from this clean

I said what I said and I meant what I mean

Post-Chorus

Bow

Bow

Yeah yeah

Bow

Bridge

I been patient

I been silent

I been loading up a whole lot of violence

Say my name say it loud when you leave

Better men than you tried and they grieving

Verse 3

Uh

Grandma told me boy you better behave

Then I walked in the room and they scattered like slaves

Nah scratch that they scattered like roaches at dawn

Nothing left but the smoke and the sound of my song

Thirty-two bars and I'm barely warm

Bet a hundred on me and you never go wrong

Hands like cinder blocks knees like stone

I ain't fighting for nothing I'm fighting for home

Chorus

Put 'em up put 'em up let's settle it

I don't do the talking I do the damage

Put 'em up put 'em up let's settle it

I don't do the talking I do the damage

Nobody walking away from this clean

Nobody walking away

Nobody walking away from this clean

I said what I said and I meant what I mean

Outro
