Son you owe me, f** the dough I want it in blood You was my homey, showed me nuttin but thug love Put me on to the game, bought me my first chain Let me ride shotgun, in your Benz and Range I'm thinkin how this big n***a gon', go against the grain Hit him up when it's foggy outside, about to rain It's about to rain teflon cop-k**ers But we ride teflon can't-stop-k**ers I thought you was fam 'til you switched the love Now you, rich and f**, you forget the thug? Heard you on the radio, but I ain't get no plug And if you come around the way, I should get you stuck I wish you luck, I'ma make you kiss the gun And I ain't gon' stop until my justice done What you wanna be labelled as, a coward or a duck? What powder you cut, you wanted that building for what? When you rep that building, what you said for that building If it wasn't for me, you woulda been DEAD in that building You don't know what it feel like to say I own that building Get dough in that building, or control that building You don't know that feeling, you ain't condone that k**ing Cause when the cops came, you was like, "Shy in that building" I remember the days when you was shook in them buildings You in front of these buildings, frontin like you build them When Scrams was home, you was on his dick And you gave that b**h money cause you always been a trick You know Shy Da Kid, I'm back on the block Bought the crack in the spot, spit back in the block f**in clap at the cops, if I'm rappin or not Whatchu gon' do n***a? Shoot or get shot I'm hot on the block like new Glocks out the box All y'all fulla dope, at the bow(?) .. what? [Talib Kweli] Yeah yeah.. yo Kweli, I'm rock this body and so forth and so on You can get the dick, one to grow on or one to blow on Bet you Quik get his dough on, I spit kick the flow on Got swift sh** I throw on, cause I'ma leave what I float on Plus I get my roll on like Baby and Mannie Fresh After I go on y'all n***as'll never bust like tantric s** The universal n***a that represent the planet best How I manifest from Brooklyn to Los Angeles - people! We hold this down like wherever you're from Got my name all in your mouth like you pierced your tongue Pimped the game so hard we leave them who*es numb The more I come, Kweli, I'm bout to blow like George Young I'm the Don Cheadle of rap, dope like arms and needles of crack My lyrics attack and arm the people like gats In Cali studios we rest the heat up on the console Peep Hollywood n***as who think it's sweet like Comanco Claimin they gangster and street like they lookin for beef But with a gun in they teeth they just MC's lookin for beats Y'all don't want trouble, we pop bubbles and flex muscle n***as don't respect the lyrics, they respect your hustle The industry is like Kinko's, makin copies while you wait And the people always scream for NEW sh*t, like Clue tapes Y'all speed this in your face, slow down like Screw tape Cause as long as you rockin with Quik, n***a you straight
