I'm focused on my issue and I'm clipping out like magazines
My name ain't Tha Joker
But I' gotta drop it like avalanche
I'm getting naked like poker and I'm finna hit my palace' wings
It's dangerous to be an MC they say
I guess it's ‘cause o' that malice clings
I'm focused on my issue' but it's tha' grind that pay' me
I'm focused on my issues but it's that grind that pay' me
That same ish ..
No it ain't .. I'm a chef
I'm s'posed to shank ..
That same ish ..
No it ain't .. I'm a chef
I'm supposed to shank ..
That same .. Same .. Noi'.. Nois'..
I'm a chef .. I'm s'posed to s'poda shank
Shank .. Shank shank
I'm focused on my issues' but it's the grind that pay' me
I'm focused on my issues' but it's that grind that pay' me
I rep the South like what it do
Do this like what his name
‘Bout that like whatchamacallit --
I rep the South like what it do
Do this like what his name
‘Bout that like whatchamacallit
-- don't never change
-- ain't that a shame
I' beat a track ‘til candy rain
I'm scoping out my Danity Kane'
I' go harder than vanity games
‘I knock ya down yo' balance'll change
Call me Laramie with yo' slanderous thang
Born for the camera
That ain't nothing
I'll show ya how we can handle some thangs
I'm focused on my issues' but it's the grind that pay' me
I'm focused on my issues' but it's that grind that pay' me
I'm focused on my issues' but it's the grind that pay' me
I'm focused on my issues' but it's that grind that pay' me
Rep my state you know I am
How could I not
My mind frame' cram
Right now I'm ‘round the street from Ma Rainey and pi cake jam
I do it for the sport like I'm historically tapin'
I'mma do this -- for life so metaphorically taken
Rep my state you know I am
How could I not
My mind frame' cram
Right now I'm ‘round the street from Ma Rainey and pai cake jam
I do it for the sport like I'm historically tapin'
