[TMR Intro]
Yo, You better watch your back out here boy
You never know who's gonna get chu
It could be someone in your face everyday
You know what I'm Sayin'
Smilin' and Grinnin'
You know what I'm sayin'
Word Up

[TMR and Pikasoe Black]
You All Alone, You All Alone
You All Alone in these streets
You All Alone, You All Alone
You All Alone in these streets
You All Alone, You All Alone
Betta keep ya eyes open and ya hand on the chrome

[Pikasoe Black]
Nigga crazy cat about to blow dis, Get rich and stay lowest
Laid in the cut but ya'll bitches still know this
When it comes to chips, you know my niggas stay focused
What I mean, We gotta eat, Ain't nuthin' sweat with that broke shit
Gotta stack it all now, So we can creep
Blowin' smoke out the door now, Boat by the shore now
I'd rather use my mind first, Instead of slugs
Hittin' niggas when the nine burst, Nine bodies and nine hearse
Nine funerals all held in the same church
Thinkin' it's gonna get better but dog it only get worse
Never seen success in my life, son that shit hurt
Possessed by the demons at night, Shit I've been cursed
For all my niggas holdin' it down, Smokin' the pund
Keep ya gun close and keep low to the ground
There is a lotta unfamiliar faces roamin' around
And I won't be satisfied until they low underground

[TMR and Pikasoe Black]
You All Alone, You All Alone
Betta keep ya eyes open and ya hand on the chrome
You All Alone, You All Alone
You All Alone in these streets
You All Alone, You All Alone
You All Alone in these streets
You All Alone, You All Alone
Betta keep ya eyes open and ya hand on the chrome

[TMR]
Everymorning I, Start my day off B, All Alone
Sometimes I feel like it's just me and the weed, just me and my seed
Can't even trust my Manz Lord, Whats the plans Lord
I'm in Need, Can't go back to makin' niggas bleed
Or back up north, Or back and forth
No Time for slackin' off, seen the Devil in my dreams
Gotta back him off
He makes me do things, Rude Things, Editorial Slangz, like Wu-Tang
And wild mood swings like catchin' a stick, or slappin' my bitch
Got me ready to flip on her, smelled dick on her
Cause I'm broke she found the next cat to trick on her
Not to mention, I heard it through the great vine
Niggas is after me, Thinkin' of blastin' me
Haterz speakin' all my name in Blasphemy
Gotta pack a gat now, Oh It's like that now
You copped P, You wanna strap now, it's bein' black now
You All Alone so whatcha Back Now

[TMR and Pikasoe Black]
You All Alone, You All Alone
You All Alone in these streets
You All Alone, You All Alone
You All Alone in these streets
You All Alone, You All Alone
Betta keep ya eyes open and ya hand on the chrome

[Pikasoe Black]
Niggas better pay attention cuz the street got eyes
I'll be flippin' on your fam, and defeatin' your guys
You can't see the enemy, They dun bleached ya eyes
Reached yo pies, Touched you when you creeped on by
Niggas know around the corner is the seat that lies
Never go that route, why, cause we too wise
Brooklyn-I, 420 or 325, SLE, A-Class, What we tryin' to drive
Niggas strive for a mil, I want four point five
If you ride like I'm real than you walk them lines
New York Unkind, The fake niggas go and tell the jake niggas
Hit you for your do, and leave you in the lake nigga
You all alone in the streets, Better keep ya eyes open for these creeps
Thuggin', Sunk low in the Jeep Truck, and release slugs
Police Duckin', Lift you off your feet for frontin'
Jus peep streets is deep, End of Discussion

[TMR and Pikasoe Black]
You All Alone, You All Alone
You All Alone in these streets
You All Alone, You All Alone
You All Alone in these streets
You All Alone, You All Alone
Betta keep ya eyes open and ya hand on the chrome

The Madd Rapper

The Madd Rapper is a character played by iconic Bad Boy producer Deric “D-Dot” Angelettie. His comedic skits are perhaps the most famous hip-hop interludes of all time, appearing on three blockbuster albums in 1997: Biggie’s Life After Death, Puff Daddy’s No Way Out, and Ma$e’s Harlem World.

The character is a parody of hardcore underground rappers who are mad at Bad Boy because of their massive crossover success. In the skits, he’s a guest on a talk show where he vents about Biggie, Puffy, and Ma$e, and coins the catch-phrase “I'ma tell you why I’m mad!”

A Madd Rapper album, Tell ’Em Why You Madd, was released in 2000 on D-Dot’s Crazy Cat Catalogue label through Columbia Records. The album featured an Eminem verse and six songs produced by D-Dot’s young protegé, Kanye West. The Madd Rapper also appeared on 50 Cent’s 1999 debut single “How To Rob.”
