Everybody here was born to hustle
It's a very thin line between the boss and the muscle

All 13 lines are lyrics, led by State Of Hip-Hop vs. Xzibit and Everything (five lines each), with two from Year 2000 and one from X. Perseverance, street and identity lead on 3 lines each. The page works as a statement of independence: "there would be no Xzibit" if critics ran the show, a free mind as the strongest thing, nobody giving anything away, and the thin line between the boss and the muscle.
Nobody gave me nothing, this is just where I landed
Either you ironclad or you plastic, jumped in or drafted
Nothing ever compares with the strength of a free mind
If I listen to critics, there would be no Xzibit
My back was to the wall, risked it all, after all, all I had was me
Just tenacity, some Olde E with a swisha sweets
I was on the block pitching rocks at fifteen
And I remember underage drinking at sixteen
Let my nuts hang, Cali bang at seventeen
Now I got everything, bitch, I got everything
Dreams battered and broken, never breakin' my spirit
We didn't come here in peace, we came to take the planet
Ain't no time like the present, leave the past and excuses
"Is your pride worth dying over?"
Niggas be weak, I'm concrete like Benjamin Grimm (Uh-huh)
It's a very thin line between a foe and a friend
Ever wonder why only certain motherfuckers get rich?
