Lyrics
INTRO:
READY...SUIT UP.......TAKE NO PRISONERS.....IT'S NOT A GAME
BEST OF THE BEST, WORLDWIDE....YEA
VERSE ONE
I'M FULLY OUTFITTED, SNIPER CAP FITTED
WILL I LIVE OR DIE, I GOTTA DEAL WITH IT
BULLET PROOF ON, THERE'S NO HESITATION,
MY TRIGGER FINGER'S FLEXED, AIN'T GOT NO TIME 4 SHAKING
HIGHLY RECRUITED SOLDIER, THEY WANT ME IN THE FED
GAVE ME THE SPECIFICS, GOT INSIDE MY HEAD
BUT YOU CAN'T STOP A FIGHTER CAUSE I NEVER QUIT
I LIVE AND BREATHE DANGER AND NEVER BREAK A SWEAT
SING:
AND NOW THEY'RE AFTER ME, TRYING TO CAPTURE ME
IS HE A FRIEND OR FOE, OR WITH THE AGENCY?
CAN I TRUST YOU OR CAN YOU TRUST ME?
WILL I LIVE OR DIE, I GUESS WE'LL WAIT AND SEE
I KEEP IT UNDERCOVER, SO I CAN PLAY THE GAME
GOTTA WATCH MY BACK, BECAUSE THEY KNOW MY NAME
SO DON'T YOU CROSS ME, OR EVEN MAKE A STEP
I'M STILL HERE REPRESENTIN TILL MY LAST BREATH
CHORUS
I'M STILL HERE REPRESENTIN FOR MY SOLDIERS
TOP NOTCH RECOGNIZE CAUSE I TOLD YA
THAT'S WHY I REPRESENT ....HEY
THAT'S WHO I REPRESENT....HEY
THAT'S HOW I REPRESENT.....HEY
FOREVER REPRESENT.....HEY
I WON'T STOP TILL I CARRY OUT MY MISSION
BEST OF THE BEST #1 IN MY POSITION
THAT'S WHY I REPRESENT ....HEY
THAT'S WHO I REPRESENT....HEY
THAT'S HOW I REPRESENT.....HEY
FOREVER REPRESENT.....HEY
VERSE 2
AND SO I CREEP SLOWLY, WATCHING EVERY STEP
WE'RE IN A STATE OF WAR, I'M COUNTING EVERY BREATH
TRAINED TO FIGHT TERROR, IT'S ALL GIVE AND TAKE
BUT I'M A TRAINED KILLA, SO MAKE NO MISTAKE
I PACK A 9 MIL, SPECIALTY BARETTA
AK-47 THAT'S MY GO-GETTA
10 YEARS IN BLACK OPS, MADE ME WHO I AM
THEY GOT A BOUNTY ON ME, IT'S WORTH A 100 GRAND
I GOTTA TREAD LIGHTLY, CAN'T EVEN MAKE A SOUND
ADVERSARIES OUT THERE, THEY WANT TO PUT ME DOWN
HI TECH WEAPONS, I NEED TO COUNTER-ACT
THAT GIVES ME JUST CAUSE, TO PUT YOU ON YOUR BACK
AND SO I HOLD STEADY, NEVER BLINK AN EYE
ONE FALSE MOVE, COULD MEAN I LIVE OR DIE
I'M LIKE A TIME BOMB, RUNNING OUT OF TIME
BUT I CAN'T QUIT, MY LIFE IS ON THE LINE
CHORUS
REPEAT
VERSE 3
CLASSFIED MISSION, WORKING NIGHT AND DAY
GOT DIRECT ORDERS FROM THE CIA
IDENTIFIED THE TARGET FROM THE DATABASE
DOWNLOAD THE PROFILE, A PICTURE OF HIS FACE
BUT SOMETHING'S NOT RIGHT, GOT A BAD FEELING
GOT SOME INTEL, SOMEBODY'S DOUBLE-DEALING
UNDERCOVER PLOT, IT'S TURNING CODE RED,
CHANGE OF MISSION, THEY'RE AFTER ME INSTEAD
SING:
AND NOW THEY'RE AFTER ME, TRYING TO CAPTURE ME
IS HE A FRIEND OR FOE, OR WITH THE AGENCY
CAN I TRUST OR CAN YOU TRUST ME?
WILL I LIVE OR DIE, I GUESS WE'LL WAIT AND SEE
I KEEP IT UNDERCOVER, SO I CAN PLAY THE GAME
GOTTA WATCH MY BACK, BECAUSE THEY KNOW MY NAME
SO DON'T YOU CROSS ME, OR EVEN MAKE A STEP
I'M STILL HERE REPRESENTIN TILL MY LAST BREATH
CHORUS
REPEAT
