## Lyrics

**Nate:**

Five to one, baby

One in five

No one here gets out alive, now

**Alex:**

You get yours, baby

I'll get mine

Gonna make it, baby

If we try

**Alex:**

The old get old

And the young get stronger

**Nate:**

May take a week

And it may take longer

**Alex:**

They got the guns

But we got the numbers

**Alex and Nate:**

Gonna win, yeah

We're takin' over

**Nate:**

Come on!

**Trae (Nate):**

Oooh!

Savages, we runnin' this school shit

(Gonna win, yeah)

**Joe (Nate):**

Glamouflage, we runnin' this school shit

(We're taking over, come on!)

**Trae:**

Alex and Syd, we runnin' this rap shit

**Joe:**

Alyssa and Claud, we run this school shit

**Trae:**

Carl and Gina, we runnin' this school shit

**Joe:**

Cass and Ruf, we runnin' this school shit

**Trae (Alex):**

The takeover, the break's over, brotha

God MC, me, Ventura

Hey lil soldier, you ain't ready for war

Savages too strong for y'all

It's like bringin' a knife to a gunfight, pen to a test

Your chest in the line of fire with your thin-ass vest

You bringin' them boys to men, how them boys gonna win?

This is grown man B.I., get you rolled into triage, bi-atch

Your reach ain't long enough, dunny

Your peeps ain't strong enough, fucker

Savages is the army, better yet the navy

We might just kidnap your babies, spit at your lady

We bring knife to fistfight, kill your drama

We kill you motherfuckin' ants with a sledgehammer

Don't let me do it to you dunny ‘cause I overdo it

So you won't confuse it with just rap music

(Taking over)

**Nate:**

Come on!

**Alex and Nate:**

Come together one more time

Get together one more time

Get together one more time

Get together, aha

Get together one more time!

Get together one more time!

**Joe:**

Vik and Gabe, we run this school shit

**Trae:**

Lily and Zach, we runnin' this school shit

**Joe:**

Maya and Sis, we runnin' this school shit

**Trae:**

Sena and Esha, we runnin' this school shit

**Joe:**

I don't care if you Mobb Deep, I hold triggers to crews

You little fuck, I got money stacks bigger than you

When I was pushin' weight back in '88

You was a ballerina, I got the pictures, I seen ya

Then you dropped "Shook Ones," switched your demeanour

Well, we don't believe you, you need more people

Glamouflage students of the game, we passed the class

‘Cause nobody can read you dudes like we do

Don't let 'em gas you like "Bender is ass and won't clap you."

Trust me on this one, I'll detach you

Mind from spirit, body from soul

They'll have to hold a mass, put your body in a hole

No, you're not on my level, get your brakes tweaked

I sold what your whole riot sold in my first week

You guys don't want it with Joe

Ask Trae, he don't want it with Joe, no!

**Nate:**

Come on!

**Alex and Nate:**

Come together one more time

Get together one more time

Get together one more time

Get together, aha

Get together one more time!

Get together one more time!

**Trae:**

Savages, we run this school shit

**Joe:**

Glamouflage, we runnin' this school shit

**Joe:**

Trae and Zach, we runnin' this school shit

**Joe:**

Joe and Nate, we runnin' this school shit

**Trae:**

A wise man told me don't argue with fools

‘Cause people from a distance can't tell who is who

So stop with that childish shit, brother, I'm grown

Please leave it alone, don't throw rocks at the throne

Do not bark up that tree, that tree will fall on you

I don't know why your advisers ain't forewarn you

Please, not Trae, he's not for play

I don't slack a minute, all that thug rappin' and gimmicks

I will end it, all that yappin' be finished

**Joe:**

You are not deep, you made your bed, now sleep

Don't make me expose you to them folks that don't know you

Dude, I know you well, all the stolen jew-els

Twinkletoes, you're breakin' my heart

You can't fuck with me; go play somewhere, I'm busy

And all you other cats throwin' shots at Joe

You only get half a bar – fuck y'all hoes!

**Alex and Nate:**

Come on!

Get together one more time!

Get together one more time!

Get together one more time!

Get together, got to, get together
