Ed O.G - Time & Place lyrics

[Verse 1] Ayo, you ain't ready For all that so fall back, keep acting Waiting for a callback, and you a tall cat Who's scared to shoot and pa** the ball back Stay out of the paint, no type of contact But talking reckless like you pack a long gat Every song and track like you're the Don of Rap I go beyond the facts when it comes to a rhyme The cover up is always worse than the crime Assess mine in less time, Edo for the green Like key lime, I be fine, weed grind Through the grime of them Boston blocks Where life don't cost a lot Real shots get offered hot, you'd better run, not jog or trot One must not get caught in a thug spot Where every n***a got a mug shot And fake dudes get jooked in their soft spot [Hook] ‘Cause there's a time and place I know you want to grind and chase And shine your face But first you gotta find your space I ain't got time to waste [Samples] “I don't waste time” “Understand what I'm saying?” “Give me a minute and it's over” [Verse 2] I don't believe in make believe You naive, nah work, go on sick leave With a notion that's preconceived I go to battles with the medals I achieved on my sleeve Anyone impedes, please Good deeds get outdone by bad ones Young [?] got blades and magnums Kick and drag ‘em, two more, toe-tag ‘em That's what happens, repeated patterns Another n***a out of jail every year like a pneumatic If dudes at it in true fashion How their life loop, pa** ‘em You want to know, you ask ‘em They live and die with a pa**ion No heart, no compa**ion, always tryna cash in In a small space moving at a fast pace On the paper chase Yo, you better find a safer place [Hook] [Verse 3] Edo get the hood bent on the track Dudes that get on their knees end up with footprints on their back Slaine's a scoundrel, so is LJ and Sandro We animals, mongrels You get beat like bongos in the African Congo You tryna be macho, meat coming out your head like a taco b**h rappers wearing ponchos Backwoods not [?] [Hook]
