Up North Trip Lyrics by Mobb Deep

Up North Trip Lyrics

    Verse one: prodigy

    It all began on the street, to the back of a blue police vehicle
    Next come the bookends, the way things is looking
    It's friday, you in for a long stay, gettin shackled on the bus
    First thing come monday, hoping in your mind you'll be released one day
    But knowing, home is a place you're not going for a long while
    Now you're up on the isle, in a position that you ain't got to, refusing
    To smile
    But keep in mind there's a brighter day, after your time spent
    Used to be wild, but locked up, you can't get bent
    Thought you could hack it, now you're requesting pee, see you fragile
    It ain't hard to see, niggas like that don't associate with me
    I'd rather, get busy to the third degree
    Cause the war populations are
    If this was the street, my razor would be a mack demon
    Hit you up, leave your whole face screaming, what you in for kid
    Busting nuts, taps heard of million street stories caught inside this trap
    Who are you to look at me with your eyes like that
    Wising up young blood, before you make things escalate, and i would hate
    To set your crooked ass straight

    Chorus

    Make your moves at night, pack your heat in this warzone, niggas is trife
    Runnin from one time, ain't no time to slip, make one false move
    And it's a up north trip
    Livin the high life, make your moves at night, pack your heat in this warzone
    Niggas is trife, runnin from one time, ain't no time to slip, make one
    False move and it's a up north trip

    Verse two: havoc

    You tried to dip, duck, but still got bucked, you talk too much shit
    You should have kept your mouth shut, all that gossip
    Motherfucker don't you know my glock kicks, hollow tips
    To your body, mad toxic, i fade you, blow you with a rusty-ass razor
    Did you a favor, tried to wet you but i grazed you
    Pop goes the glock when there's beef on the block, chill for a while
    Make them think the beef stop, then i creep like a thief in the night
    It's only right, ain't no turnin back, it's on tonight, and if i get caught
    Then my ass is up north, straight on the course for upstate new york
    Stress, smokin back to back cigaretttes, it popped off, gon' point in
    The mess hall
    But to avoid that, from head to toe, dipped in all black, hit them niggas
    Where they pump they cracks at, havoc, with the murder masterplan
    Keep my nine up to par, so my shit won't jam, god forbid if my shit do
    Run behind a tree, fix my shit then hit you, slugs in your body
    Mainly in your brain tissue, witness from the scene, get ghost, stash
    The pistol
    So simple then, watch my back, lay up and relax, roll a sack, ?k-a black?
    Find a shorty intact

    Chorus

    Verse three: prodigy

    I got the powder, combine wit the powder, and water, it oughtta
    Drop in a half and hour, in the, form of oil, watch the cocaine boil
    Keep my eye on it so the shit won't spoil, then i pause
    And ask god why, did he put me on the serve, just so i could die
    I sit back and build on, all the things i did wrong, why i'm still breathing
    And all my friends gone, i try not to dwell on the subject for a while
    Cause i might get stuck in this corrupt lifestyle, but my
    Heart pumps foul blood through my arteries, and i can't turn it back
    It's a part of me, too late for cryin, i'm a grown man struggling
    To reach the next level of life, without fumbling, down to folding
    I got no shoulder to lean on but my own, all alone in this danger zone
    Time waits for no man, the streets grow worse, fuck the whole world kid
    My money comes first, cause i'm out for the gusto, and trust nobody
    If you're not family, then you die by me, cause niggas will have you
    Locked up
    The snitch, be a man, givin police the run down on your plans
    We're never goin down like that, so i, shut my mouth and hold my words back
    The legal business, forever mine, fuck payin taxes, the last kid that shitted

    And gave police access, to my blueprints, used names as evidence
    Skipped town and i haven't seen the snitch nigga ever since
    The moral of the story is easy to figure out, a lesson that you can't
    Live without

    Repeat chorus once
    *livin the high life
