DJ Premier - Hold the City Down lyrics

[Hook] "I got to hold down the city" "Got to let you know where I come from" "I got to hold down the city" "Got to let you know" "Let you know" "I got to hold down the city" "Got to let you know where I come from" [Intro: Papoose] Papoose, Papoose [Verse 1] I did all my laps in the gym, the sweat ran off my skin They thought I ran out of breath but I was just catching my wind That only happens to them, I got to capture my win I practice 31 days a month and I practice again Was born equipped with sportsmanship so I just laugh and I grin Victory is my objective, I don't have to pretend Spread my wings like an eagle and let them flap in the wind No guts, no glory, no pain, no gain, these are actions of men My teammate is a warrior, got my back 'til the end My offense is God-sent, you gon' have to defend My crossover is vicious, I got more swagger than him Hit the bottom of the net, or the back of the rim Your style is a flagrant foul, your score, I'mma take it down All of your trash talking was pointless, say it now You're slacking and goal tending, my actions are bone-chilling Got the home court advantage, I'm back on the road winning [Hook] [Verse 2] I got to hold the city down, anyhow, they gon' have to really bounce Totally dominate the game in front of any crowd I keep it 100 while you only keep it 50 thou' I can conquer any style, victory is in me now My time is now, who said it was later? It comes natural, I got a competitive nature Look at them guys when I'm coming, they be hiding, I'm hunting Luckily, they've been ducking me, you see lots of them running Challengers, I embarra** 'em, they a dime and a dozen Full of fire just like a dragon straight out of the dungeon I'm just rising above it, you just lied to the public I serve a purpose, you nervous with bu*terflies in your stomach Don't try to intimidate me, you couldn't scare me, will it? I'm spontaneous, smart, dangerous, fancy and quick My trainer told me to work, he ain't prepare me to quit I'm the only captain who's sailing this champion-ship! [Hook]
