Victory Or Death Lyrics

2000, no mothafuckin' mercy for the new millennium
It's Victory or Death, I'm tha Twista in this bitch
Mothafuckaz talkin' 'bout styles and shit
And who bit what and who made what, nigga fuck all y'all styles
I'm finna set this shit off like this here
Chi towns murderous Mob Gothic
Hard knock it give me tha mothafuckin' ammunition I'll cock it
Respected like I'm one of Gods prophets
Gotta put it down for legit ballaz and you don't think
That I'll rock it annihilate that nigga
'Cause like a lamb I was sacrificed
For this verbal murder religion imprisoned by my hunger to succeed
By the heart I be driven
No shakin', no shiverin', get your shit to bleed
Reciting street literature, shall I spit tha creed
Now who them mothafuckaz talkin' 'bout bitin'
Go get me the pump-out of my trunk-I'm finna buss
Y'all better run punk

Fuck where you got your style from I be the one
Rippin' the track and I'm murderin'
I'm in the middle of killin' 'em off when the guns dump
With a young pump two to the brain don't even harm me
You're fuckin' every party, you wont even startle
You're the harder crew of lyrical giants
Turnin' mothafuckaz like you to microscopic particles
To hype, to stop it the modules on cruise control
Ride out on these niggas-bitches-ho's
Ain't takin' no titles I instantly bruise your soul
Talkin' that shit to me, trigger vicious flows
Get to rippin' my clothes and start snappin' like I'm
Sniffin' shit up the nose, and catchin' convulsions
Till I'm trembling no surrendering start shootin' and
Knockin' mothafuckaz out like Benalyn
Reminiscin' on that adrenaline, oh, now you rememberin'
Overdose 'em on poisonous poetry from the west to the wild y'all
Gangbagin' like Gotti, rockin' tha party
Straight up shockin' your body doin' it Kami Kaze style y'all
'Cause it's victory or death nigga, better stay out the way
When my adrenaline pumpin' or you can get a
(Click-clock-blast)
Die mothafucka die
Ain't no makin' me bleed 'cause I've got family to feed it's
'Cause it's victory or death nigga, better stay out the way
When my adrenaline pumpin' or you can get a
(Click-clock-blast)
Die mothafucka die
Ain't no makin' me bleed 'cause I've got family to feed it's
I would rather die before I can't prosper I'm a mobsta
Won't stop ballin', because it's meant to be,
It's victory or death I gotta hustle till I'm gone
I would rather die before I can't prosper I'm a mobsta
Won't stop ballin', because it's meant to be,
It's victory or death I gotta hustle till I'm gone
To all the folks and the lords
The bloods and the crips and every ward let's roll
You gotta go for what you know
If it's retaliation get low
When you get to the calico let it flow
Make these niggaz know in the door
Make a mothafucka bleed for what you need
'Cause the families gotta eat in the last days it's hatred and greed
Luv to the Gov's, B.M.'s, field marshals, elites and the chief
Soldiers we better take heed and realize
Signs of the times, stand by yo nine
Watch out for tha haters and write yo' rhymes
But the industry is set up to fuck you so you better be on the grind
Don't be one of the blind gotta stay alert
And put in work 'cause time is almost up
Twistas, hurricanes, and volcanoes erupt
So we can't stop the struggle
I'm killin' my enemy, breakin' 'em off and not givin' a fuck
And I pray to the Lord my soul to keep
When i go to the sky
Thank you from savin' me form a torturous life of hell
But hile I'm here I'm straight legit ballin' until I die
Let's better these years, feel the blood sweat and the tears
Organize, I'll sit back and smoke a Philly witcha
Never scared of my peers, I only got federal fears
And I'm known to put it down for my city nigga
And when we get full of this indo
Hydroponics and chronic lock up ya doors and tha window
Better go and call up your kinfolks
'Cause the riders that's down with this mob
Will murder when the wind blow
Don't know what you info
We bring terror in this apocalyptic era
Of Armageddon we headin' in
And the only way we can survive is if we come hard
And strive to be gods instead of men
'Cause it's victory or death nigga, better stay out the way
When my adrenaline pumpin' or you can get a
(Click-clock-blast)
Die mothafucka die
Ain't no makin' me bleed 'cause I've got family to feed it's
'Cause it's victory or death nigga, better stay out the way
When my adrenaline pumpin' or you can get a
(Click-clock-blast)
Die mothafucka die
Ain't no makin' me bleed 'cause I've got family to feed it's
I would rather die before I can't prosper I'm a mobsta
Won't stop ballin', because it's meant to be,
It's victory or death I gotta hustle till I'm gone
I would rather die before I can't prosper I'm a mobsta
Won't stop ballin', because it's meant to be,
It's victory or death I gotta hustle till I'm gone

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Twista

Carl Terrell Mitchell (born November 27, 1973 in Chicago, Illinois), better known by his stage name Twista and formerly Tung Twista, is an American rapper who once held the title of fastest emcee in the world, being able to pronounce 11.2 syllables per second. In 1992 he released his debut album, Runnin' Off At Da Mouth, and has since released a further seven albums including 1994's Resurrection, 1997's Adrenaline Rush, 2004's highly successful Kamikaze, 2005's The Day After and 2007's Adrenaline Rush 2007. His latest studio album, Category F5, was released in July of 2009.

Twista grew up in the K-Town area on the west side of Chicago. He started rapping at the age of 12. However, before starting his professional career, he worked at several other jobs including working at a factory, selling shoes, working at McDonald's, working as a security guard, and even cutting hair.

Twista was one of the first artists to sign with Loud Records. In 1991, he released Runnin' off at da Mouth under the name of Tung Twista. Due to his rapid-fire pace of delivery, he was listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the world's fastest rapper. Despite this recognition, the album achieved little success. Tung Twista dropped the "Tung" off of his name in his second album Resurrection, which was never released outside of Chicago's underground.

In 1996, he teamed with fellow Chicago act "Do or Die" on the track "Po' Pimp" leading to a contract with Atlantic Records. He released Adrenaline Rush in 1997 followed by Mobstability in 1998. Twista then formed his own Legit Ballin' label which has released two compilation albums Legit Ballin' in 1999 and Legit Ballin' Vol. 2: Street Scriptures in 2001. The label later released Respect The Game,Vol. 3 in 2002 and Volume 4: Tha Truth in 2006.

Twista developed a good reputation in rap circles leading to work with Mariah Carey, P. Diddy (then Puff Daddy),Lil kim, Drag-on, Jay-Z, Timbaland, Ras Kass, Ludacris, Royce Da 5'9", Shaquille O'Neal, and Da Brat. However, it would take him until 2004 to achieve a platinum, number-one record under his own name.

On his website, Twista stated that he made Kamikaze to show that he was still true to the ideals that he had when he started out. "I represent for the MCs that have skills, not just make music for the hell of it. I take the time to concentrate. Otherwise, I could have 10 albums out there, easy. I could sit down all day and write something. But I write when I get in a zone more than writing because I’ve got to do this. I represent the artists that keep it true to what really is, to be able to make rappers want to write."

"I want to show the streets that I’m back and that I’m true to the game. Musically, I want to show that I’m still out here doing my thing. After all the people that were out when I was out years ago fell off, I’m still out here competing with the shorties. I also want to gain platinum success. It’s something that I haven’t done."

The first single, "Slow Jamz", featured Kanye West and Jamie Foxx. It topped the Billboard Hot 100 and world R&B charts in early 2004, and eventually reached number 3 on the UK singles charts. Kamikaze built on the success of "Slow Jamz" to reach the top of the Billboard 200 album chart upon its release in January 2004 and went platinum by March 2004. The second single, "Overnight Celebrity", became another top 10 Hot 100 hit and a UK top 40 entry, while the third, "So Sexy" (featuring R. Kelly), made the top 40 of the Hot 100. In the UK, the album track "Sunshine", which featured R&B singer Anthony Hamilton and lifted its chorus from Bill Withers' "Lovely Day", was extracted as a third single and became a big hit; this track received comparatively little exposure in the U.S., perhaps because rapper Lil' Flip had a huge hit there at the same time with a different song of the same title.
