[Verse One] [Termanology]:
I ain't complain' about a label not signin' me
I just got signed, my people like, "Finally."
Took long enough but I ain't really sweat it
I knew I'd get me the cheddar, pathetic the way we spend it
Our relatives wouldn't let us invent a venomous record
Instead they'd rather have us check in college and get accredited
And then if we ever quit it I did it, stayed on my sh** it
Delivered quality records regardless if they spin it
Shout out to real DJ's who always held me down
And let me get up on their show when I get in town
Let me spit a 16 and play that hot sh**
Cause they in love with that real hip hop sh**
Not for the profits and run up in they pockets
Jockin' all of these fly sick cats spittin' that nonsense
Consequence reppin' N.Y.C. now
Akrobatik he be reppin' for B now
5'9" he be reppin' for the D now
Crooked I reppin' k**er Cali now
Fizzy Wo' still reppin' M.O.P. now
Termanology, I'll still k** you with a freestyle
