We started off, two dogs with the same goals (uh) 
Nothin but two dogs walkin the same roads (uh) 
Two different cultures, but had the same heart (yeah) 
Enjoyed seeing the light, but lived in the dark 
Dipped out and bumped heads in the parking lot (aight) 
It was a quiet brother, didn't like to bark a lot 
Came through wreck (uh), when he came, gained respect 
So I gave respect (uh), we shared, the same respect 
Two names to rep in our own circles (what) 
Two brothers with good hearts 
But if you start, two bothers that'll hurt you (yeah) 
Know how that dirt do, hittin for quarters
