Verse I
Now I was raised up in the sunshine city,
In the middle of s**, drugs and girls thaz pretty.
I guess I made a left down the right d*** route,
If I made a right they couldn"t have pulled me out...
As I take a look down the project blocks,
I see they filled with pain and I block that out.
Cuz I got a job to protect and serve.
And I"m gonna do it homie, thaz my word...
I got me a badge. I got me a gun.
And all my n***** told me that I was on one.
It was something in my heart that told me,
Cuz when I was young I used to hate the police!
But it"s my calling! Thaz my take.
I never woulda thought I"d end up as Jake.
But Imma do my best just to keep my brain,
Cuz in this city homie it"s hard to stay sane.
As I walk the Line,
The City is Mine
Just don"t cross the line,
The City is Mine
As I walk the Line,
The City is Mine, The City is Mine!
Just don"t cross the line,
Verse II
Welcome to Miami where the killers dwell...
And I specialize in putting them in a jail cell,
I give a holla to my sisters on welfare...
Please don"t hate me cuz the badge that I wear
Please don"t hate me cuz ur man ain"t there.
I tried to warn him but he didn"t care.
It"s a dirty job but somebody gotta do it.
Gotta make sure ya kids safe at school.
I got me a badge. I got me a gun.
I got a bad attitude so u better run!
I"m about clean these streets,
And I"ll sweep "em if I have to...
U got guns? We got guns too!
And I bet I got more guns than u!
A message from Miami"s finest don"t sleep.
Cuz if we catch ur a** on a creep,
We gonna take ur dope, ur money, and leave a case u can"t beat...
As I walk the Line,
The City is Mine
Just don"t cross the line,
The City is Mine
As I walk the Line,
The City is Mine
Just don"t cross the line,
The City is Mine
The City is Mine
As I walk the Line,
The City is Mine
Just don"t cross the line,
The City is Mine
