El Prez - IFYA lyrics

[intro] [1st Verse:El Prez] If you want to be the Dude, then follow the rules Cause if you make the wrong move you'll be right on the news And if you want to get a crew, make sure they're the truth Because if you hang around with fakes you'll end up in a noose But if you keep your circle tight like a virgin for life We'll all be eating off that plate like collections for Christ If you're 'finna roll the dice make sure it's precise Cause in this game ain't no ties son, this ain't Mike But if you politic, connect, with the men of respect And if you play your cards right, then you'll be cashing them checks If you're crashing with a chick man I hope she's the sh** Cause if you ever call it quits know the Feds don't miss If you're on that, know that, and if not grab a Kodak And picture the format that I'm laying on your doormat If you see the X on the map, that's where the dough's at You weak n***as living off rap, we taking all that [Hook: El Prez] If you didn't know, now you know If you didn't know, now you know If you didn't know now you know Now you know (Yeah) now you know [2nd Verse: El Prez] If you ain't knowing, this a heist And we want more than the gold and the ice If you sick of that weak sh** let me know (let me know) If you sick on that week sh**, you a Ho If you trick for that treat, b**h, you a Pro If you f** with the Prez then she's like Marilyn Monroe If she give good head, then I guess she's like Lewinsky And if she don't want a man, we could f** on the friendly If you didn't know the time, get a watch If you ain't knowing, ain't no Love in Hip Hop If your reality's distorted, ignore it So listen up close cause this is more than a recording Wit Jansport on the beat, he got that Dope, n***a And you ain't f**in wit Prez cause I'm a cold n***a I'm like 20 below in Polo, n***a And BIG told y'all hoes in '94, ifya [Hook: El Prez] If you didn't know, now you know If you didn't know, now you know If you didn't know now you know Now you know (Yeah) now you know [Outro: DJ scratching]
