(Verse 1 Notorious BIG) A n***a never been as broke as me – I like that When I was young I had two pair of Lees, besides that The pin stripes and the gray The one I wore on Mondays and Wednesdays While n***as flirt I'm sewing tigers on my shirts And alligators I see you later Here comes the drama, oh That's that n***a with the fake, blaow Why you punch me in my face? Stay in your place Play your position Here come my intuition Go in this n***a pocket Rob him while his friends watchin' And hoes clockin' Here comes respect His crew's your crew or they might be next Look at they man eye, big man, they never try So we rolled with them, stole with them I mean loyalty (Hook) I'm trying to look for somebody that the ride with me tell me is that you Tryna find somebody not gonna lie to me tell me is that you I been looking for someone to hold me down is that you Baby tell me is that you, is that you Baby tell me is that you, is that you Baby tell me is that you, is that you Is that you, is that you (Verse 2 J Cole) Heart beatin' fast, let a n***a know that he alive Fake n***as, mad snakes in the gra** let a n***a know that he arrived Don't be sleeping on your level cause it's beauty in the struggle n***a It's beauty in the struggle Ugliness in the success Hear my words or listen to my signal of distress I grew up in the city and thought some times we had less, Compared to some of my n***as down the block Man We were blessed And life can't be no fairytale, no once upon a time But I be God damned if a n***a don't be tryin' Cause all the pain he brought you still linger in your mind?
