[Intro: Jay-Z snippet]
Now tuned into the muh'f**in greatest
N-n-n-n-n now
N-n-n-n-n now
Now tuned into the muh'f**in greatest
N-n-n-n-n now now
N-n-n-n-n now now
N-n-n-n-n now now
N-n-n-n-n now now
Now tuned into the muh'f**in greatest
[Verse 1]
The game's f**ed up
And there's no regard
n***as sayin' anything but y'all bump it
As long as the beats is hard
This rap sh** needs life, this is CPR
Makaveli rest in me
I'm against all odds
Authenticity is key
I'm against these frauds
No matter how you switch it up, I will evolve
How you a man but your actions reflect these broads
I swear to God
They don't make n***as like they used ta
n***as claim they real but be fraud n***as
n***as k** they n***as over broads n***a
n***as talk as if they whippin' hard n***a
But either got a job or crackin' cards
Who am I, no need to appease me
Get it how you gotta but discretely
Cause you ain't sh**tin' off the sh** that I eat
It's okay man, you can be you
I'm serious, bein' yourself is cool
I'm comfortable with me, you should be too
Why you mad cause that man winning
He should be fuel
Dedication, lil hard work, that could be you
Your favorite rapper, I tell him f** 'em
Intended disrespect
These n***as wouldn't dare play Lyrical Roulette
Make ya next move ya best
This is chess, n***a check
What if I didn't post on that curb?
What if I wasn't [?] with these words?
Wasn't determined to give you this work
Or just didn't have the urge
I don't know what life would be
HIP HOP without the HNIC
Not only Englewood
I'm Chi-Town's savior
So after this tape
You might owe me a favor (for real!)
