A.W.O.L. Lyrics

[Hook]
Remember me? Seven execution
Remember me? I have no remorse
Remember me? I'm high, powered
Remember me? I drop bombs like Hiroshima!

(RBX is A.W.O.L.) I drop bombs like Hiroshima! [2X]
"And if ya don't know... and if ya...
And if ya don't know, now you know, nigga"

[Verse 2]
I killed him too quick to fuckin think about it
RBXtra, Xtra, read about it
Tell me what ya thought fool, huh, what?
Now I'm pissed off in all black in the cut
Fool walks by, eh-heh, BOOM!
Cops said I killed him but they can only assume
Never found no damn murder weapon, I'm steppin
X, X, the X
X-con, X-ecution, X mark the spot
Flip it around, and the mark gets shot
And I'm gon take it out with this light it's mighty
Across your face, you see the red lights
Now you ain't got no face no more
Bullet, rip that body, tore, collapse
Then I kick the tricky raps
X, Xtra, Xtra X-termination
Here is the presentation
Haven't you ever heard of a killer?
Killer killer illa, like Magilla Gorilla illa
Then deadly medly murder with a pen
And you can't cross out a X, nigga
Got my itchy itchy finger on the trigga
BUST, bodybag, and crush
Trust, flush, down the toilet
In other words you ain't shit
You be talkin that ill, you ain't a killa for real, really doe
I know, and now I let you know (busta!)
RBX is A.W.O.L., escape from Death Row

About

Genius Annotation

“A.W.O.L.” (also known as “Escape from Death Row”) is a diss track directed towards Dr. Dre and Death Row Records. RBX was signed to Death Row from 1991 until 1994, during which time he contributed to other artists' albums while his career was neglected by the label. The song was first released as a double singe with “Rough is the Texture”.

The song is directed more against the managers and founders of the label (Dre, Sure Knight, et al) rather than the artists, many of whom also got hustled by the notoriously shady label.
