[Verse 1] Dope man, dope man, dope man, keep it in the hood Dope man, sell your dope, don't make no should Hopin' every drop of crack brings you where it should Realize I'm livin' in the land of no good My eyes low, hustlin' to stay alive Got me higher than the sky, I'm livin' a high life Don't get fooled by the seduction of the streets Ain't no satisfaction, no peace and no relief [Pre-Chorus] Just tryin' to survive, I'm out here hustlin' I'm not scared of the risks 'cause I got nothin' Can't be scared of the cops 'cause they know I don't run So get up out the way 'cause I can't let you hold me down [Chorus] I'm the dope man, the one they call the lord In the street I reign, I'm gon' make it real hard One by one I'm gettin' my money in stacks In the hood I'm known for keeping the blocks on lock [Verse 2] No time for mercy, I gotta feed my family Gotta have it, can't take nothin' less than a hundred Livin' on the corner like no one ever gonna care Still survivin' in the projects, can't nobody touch me there My block is crowded with the hustlers and the fiends Tryin' to keep it real, they can't catch me in between Don't worry 'bout me, I'm the one that they call The dope man, the king of the streets where I rule all [Chorus] I'm the dope man, the one they call the lord In the street I reign, I'm gon' make it real hard One by one I'm gettin' my money in stacks In the hood I'm known for keeping the blocks on lock
