[Intro: T.I.]
Wanna' be the kang (Kang), ain't runnin' a damn thang (Wanna') 4x
[Verse 1: MAK Nikova]
They wanna be the kang, but all they do is talk
Bout the next dudes move and how they prove to be boss
See I never waste time, like a Metro call
And yall grind, is like this, repetitive fall
A pitfall rappers painted some call it the hype
Now the fakes all influenced tryna' rewrite they life
I wonder, why? Labels got the real bound up
Real kings develop thrones, all from the ground up
And you never round what? Them gangstas and gorillas
While you act up, I'm doin' me to see some scrilla'
You puttin' on a show, nobody's applauding to
Close the curtains on a s**a', now his hearse is ridin' through
And this applies to who? Skank, scallywags, and bustas
You always lackin' facts so how the hood gon' trust ya'
Ya' need to reevaluate ya' whole situation
And take heed to what I'm sayin', know these n***as here ain't playin
[Hook: T.I.]
Wanna' be the kang (Kang), ain't runnin' a damn thang (Wanna') 8x
[Verse 2: MAK]
This is for the rappers, that's built off perpetration
MAK making laws up like Feds at the station
Rev Run said it best, I hope you see the gospel
I topple, Emcees, the rhymes turn colossal
A Full Metal Jacket, I'm runnin' with my pa**ion
With no sweat, wiping down these haters' reaction
I'm pa**in' outlastin' batons I'm castin'
It's Motivation, yall just s**az wrapped in plastic
A reason for that 15, spittin' sick 16s
See me when I get green incredible it's seems
Check it how I switch means, lames better keep up
The reason why I re-up? Perpetrators need us
Needless to say, but I'm preaching like the Speakerboxxx
And T.D. Jakes, your sugar coated rhymes turn to flakes
Its not likely that'll you see me hate
But if I say I'mma kang, what these hataz gon say?
They goin'
[Hook 2x]
