Blood Sweat and Tears Lyrics

Yo, yo cmon son
Yo, they killin' 'em out there, son
They dyin' out there, son, word up
Yo they killin' us, son, Im tellin' youYall niggas cmon thats my word
Yall better cmon, yo wake up, son
They dyin', son
Yo, cmon nigga, wake up, cmonIt took me twenty-four years to figure out
What makes this world go round
Its not man holding ground with dope sound
We gots to askWhy do you feel that a meal can make you ill
When you know that broke bill can still
See right through your plastic ass
Before crack was a sport and we had thoughts of getting busyBefore death left and fame had his way
The town Brownsville, the place, the ill
Follow the trail of fresh blood drips
Youll end up on my bricksThe marks, home of the warrior thrown home
Our true thugs thats dead and gone
In the hills most effective chrome

Return to these gravesShowin' youngsters what Im facin'
'Cause we had trouble
We been strugglin' since single shot gauges
Thats straight ghetto bad luckBut, I done passed up more shit
Than you may ever touch
What, we on sacred grounds
Without the guidance of our fathersAll we know is how to double clutch revolvers
Me and my own staff flaunt a different path
Im tryin' to dip shit minus in your highness
The finest of kickin' halfHonest to god, Im layin' down my card
Its been hard, for too many years
Blood sweat and tearsThese three words
(Man, got somethin' to say)
Blood, sweat, tears
(Mop family)These three words
(We went to the death, we knew he was dead and gone)
Blood, sweat, tears
(We comin' all the way from New York City, hear me out)These three words
Blood, sweat, tears
These three words
Blood, sweat, tearsGo head nigga
A whole lot changed since my brother left
(I can feel you, baby)
And since my mothers death
(I can feel you, baby)But as time past, I could see my life flash
Leavin' the body and theres no breath
(I can feel ya)
I chose not to let my Biretta swing'Cause Im a veteran
And Im livin' for the better things
Its cold-hearted B
Check the majority of blacks
They slingin' crack, livin' in poverty
(True life testament)What you gotta do is live what your life give
And make the best of it
(Try to see the rest of it)
'Cause you could easily fall victim to these streets
And deaths most definite
(Blood)Is for the brothers that died
The mothers that cried
The brothers that tried
All we do is
(Sweat)Steady, puttin' to work
Handling dirt, holding your turf
We all shed for the loved ones
(Tears)
The thug ones and all deceased peersAnd while these other cats play hard
I'ma praise God
And thank God that Im here
Blood sweat and tearsThese three words
(Till the break of dawn)
Blood, sweat, tears
(Birella)These three words
(Till the break of dawn)
Blood, sweat, tears
(Twenty-one gun salute)Ghetto nigga, street nigga
House nigga, we all niggas
Black on black crime cause niggas drop dimes
You put down yours but I'ma keep mine
I'ma keep mine niggaUncle Sam dont drop his shit for nobody
So nobody gonna take my shit from me
So while you house niggas is fighting for the limelight
I be down here with my niggasUnderground, dirty
Holdin' mine, house nigga
Blood sweat and tearsBlood, sweat, tears
These three words
Blood, sweat, tears

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

M.o.p.

M.O.P., short for Mash-Out Posse, is an American hip hop group from Brooklyn, New York.Comprised of rappers Lil' Fame aka Fizzy Womack and Billy Danze, the group is best known for frenetic singles such as 2000's Ante Up (Robbin Hoodz Theory).

Throughout their whole career M.O.P. deliver the most hard, vicious and violent music hip hop could ever offer. They struck out in 1994. with To the Death, a dark, slow and raging LP that was fully produced by DR Period and featured one of the biggest hardcore rap anthems of the nineties, How About Some Hardcore, that's put by any hardcore rap fan in the same category with Onyx's Slam, Jeru The Damaja's Come Clean and Wu-Tang Clan's Shame On A Nigga.

In 1996 MOP released their second effort, the totally-sophomore-slump-free Firing Squad. Despite totally changing their production sources (the album was mostly produced by Gang Starr's DJ Premier and Fizzy Womack himself), M.O.P. continued torturing fans' ears with extremely hard, rhinocerously slow beats and ecstatic, rampant delivery. Subject matter is either battling with heavy use of criminal associations or serious talk about life in the ghetto.

Two years later M.O.P. hit the fans with a starter - an EP called Handle Ur Bizness and later that year released First Family 4 Life, working on the same formula as ever, again with heavy percentage of DJ Preemo's production, more gems produced by group member Lil Fame and proving that M.O.P.'s trademark is not only the hardest hardcore you can get but also consistency.

Most of M.O.P.'s work was considered underground until 2000, when they released Warriorz, their best work yet. Mainstream got the first hint with "Ante Up", a track produced by DR Period for first time in 6 years. But with self-produced Cold As Ice, a track that featured a rock-song sample (Cold As Ice by Foreigner), M.O.P. achieved major mainstream success, though the song's lyrics were explicit and raging as usual (the radio version edits out much lyrical content to comply with FCC regulations).

In a strange turn, M.O.P. featured on the title track of sugary-sweet boy band LFO's 2001 album Life Is Good. Aside from the lack of profanity, M.O.P.'s short verse was rapped in their trademark loud, intense style. It is unclear how this unusual team-up was organized, but it is unlikely that this brief guest spot led to much crossover fan appeal for either group.

"Ante Up" was later remixed with added verse by Flipmodian Busta Rhymes and Terror Squad queen Remy Ma, and was released on the greatest hits record 10 Yearz And Gunnin'. Believe it or not, it is the last hip hop record from M.O.P. In the beginning of the century they switched labels from Loud to Roc-A-Fella in order to have more income and more creative control, but the long-awaited release is still on the shelves. M.O.P. also made a rock-rap album titled simply Mash Out Posse, but it received bad reviews from rap fans who wanted M.O.P. to just rap.

In June 2005, M.O.P. officially announced their signing with 50 Cent's G-Unit, at the same time as Queens rap duo Mobb Deep.
