[Verse 1: Sene] I hear the backboards Or is it crackheads shooting .22s That they carry in they shoes during crack wars? You could be a young'un in the city that I'm from And either way, life changes when somebody presses fast forward All I wanted was some p**y and a pa**port So I ain't on the train when the baseheads blast off I don't pledge allegiance See you when I see you If I see you when I need you They say collab or die, I was never for procedure How the f** can someone climb by reaching underneath them? You just below the sneakers P.S. Yes, these are pf's Our peeps'll never be the bleacher creatures screaming, "We next" Keep the kings around our table, keep the queens in the bed Y'all keep the collars, we the regal in the v-necks and Regals Flew the coop, say his name Bald eagle where all's equal cause all's evil I say my prayers time to time, no doubt But ain't no doubt in my mind there will be no sequel So in the name of the father Where I'm from, S Dot Carter Nino and Pacino, yelling "Chi Chi" by the water This is on some Jungle Book, except for I'm the author [Hook] There'd be nothing more to say If it wasn't for today Paint a picture of escape But I'll never run away [Verse 2: Blu] They trying to make me out of a fool, I make em hand me a mule And told em hand me a tool and turn this booth to a school They trying to tell me to die, put that tool in his eye Make em take back pride, I'm back to break bad ties Told the city I'm home, it's a pity you gone Coulda said it to the dead, but I said it to clones They call me B-L-U, keep the details short Send your female love and send that e-mail through I give a f** about the drama Bout to slap the sh** out of a rapper momma If he keep acting like he got a problem Keep it true and original, you exist in the digital Being me is a ritual, being you is a ridicule Swallow your efforts, spot you out like a leopard Peace to God and the shepherd That n***a Hov is a measure You could praise all the Jays You could say it's a phase Some are meant to remain And some of you got to change My advice is leave your vices where the vice is Ain't no prizes for the fighters that lost Cut the snake after he swallows his thoughts b**h n***as [Hook]
