I'll take the cat and never get caught, you wack together we fought Cause i can't see my melons boxing if he's not boxin' with 'em I don't care who started it, i'm gonna be apart of it Regardless of the odds of how hard It's been many times we was outnumbered and we still got with them I got rhythm from some boogers and some foxes But if i becomes a 10 then some brothers all some gin And i got juice, and this n***as scared I'll f your head up, like the l.a. 4, when i flow for cash i got for Broke Like mel for moore Why should a male with a b8 get more then me? When rashid got an mc degree, and a doctorine in rockin' sh** i go to Docs To get A fishwish with cheese, i don't mix with mcs, cause i just don't like The Mother____ But i'm still maintaining Hook
