[Intro]
BearOnTheBeat

[Chorus: MBNel]
I know these n***as plottin' so my guard is never down
Every time I'm in the town always keep the tool around
I know these n***as hatin', they just want me in the ground
So I keep a couple rounds, never put my pistol down
I keep that tool on me
Always keep that tool on me
Always keep that tool on me
Tool on me
Always keep that tool on me
Always keep that tool on me

[Verse 1: $tupid Young]
Uh, look, everywhere I go, you know I got that tool on me
Just in case they catch me slippin', tryna pull on me
And I ain't goin' out with that foolery
I'm the type to die before you ever take my jewelry
A lot of homies in the ground 'cause this gang war
And mama still ask me why I bang for
You know I ride around with that thing on me
In case these suckers ever show up to my front door
They said they want my dead body like a trophy
The brodies said, "C safe, you better keep that .40"
That's why I try to watch n***as for the phony
'Cause they think this shit a game like a PlayStation Sony
I be out here, on my toes, I be on alert
Is you really gon' ride if I get murked?
Or is you just gon' put a picture of me on a shirt?
Tell me is you really gon' ride if I'm in the dirt?
[Chorus: MBNel]
I know these n***as plottin' so my guard is never down
Every time I'm in the town always keep the tool around
I know these n***as hatin', they just want me in the ground
So I keep a couple rounds, never put my pistol down
I keep that tool on me
Always keep that tool on me
Always keep that tool on me
Tool on me
Always keep that tool on me
Always keep that tool on me

[Verse 2: $tupid Young]
Uh, uh, paranoid every time I lay down to sleep
Lookin' out the window, burner in my reach
So much shit I done seen in these streets
On the East, everybody call Long Beach
I seen a lot of homies deceased lay six feet
A lot of homies got life, they be hard to reach
All the homies on the block tryna teach
So much beef in this world, gotta keep the heat
'Cause the streets get colder and colder
You lookin' over your shoulder
And as the day gets older
This just the life of a soldier
That's how it is when they want war
Show up at your front door
Kids got more guns than a gun store
This the shit we signed up for, the way we livin'
They always say we gon' be dead or end up in prison
That's why every night I pray with the K
'Cause I know they can't wait 'til the day I'm in the grave
[Chorus: MBNel]
I know these n***as plottin' so my guard is never down
Every time I'm in the town always keep the tool around
I know these n***as hatin', they just want me in the ground
So I keep a couple rounds, never put my pistol down
I keep that tool on me
Always keep that tool on me
Always keep that tool on me
Tool on me
Always keep that tool on me
Always keep that tool on me
I know these n***as plottin' so my guard is never down
Every time I'm in the town always keep the tool around
I know these n***as hatin', they just want me in the ground
So I keep a couple rounds, never put my pistol down
I keep that tool on me
Always keep that tool on me
Always keep that tool on me
Tool on me
Always keep that tool on me
Always keep that tool on me, gang
