Jadakiss - If It's Beef... lyrics

[Verse 1 - Jadakiss] The hood know what it is they know who I am And they don't care what I scan but they know I'm the man Know I could bring 'em to the spot show them the grams Or I could bring 'em to the garage and show them the lam Know that I could show 'em the Range and show 'em the Beemer And I could lift up my shirt and show them the steamer Had ups and downs but I stil get along with 'em Nobody hatin cause I ain't get on a song wit 'em Yeah and I ain't out there pumpin But I might slide through and give the crackheads somethin Not only on my off time I be in the studio Usually though probably hit the block by my 4th rhyme Think wit a boss mind lot of evil thoughts run across mine I sell it if I could get it off fine and you already know I'm real When it comes to the game and the hood you know how I feel... What [Hook] If it's beef The hood know what it is (Tell'em Kiss) The hood know what it is If it's Beef (Yeah) The hood know what it is Three words 1-8-7 (*repeat 2X*) [Verse 2 - Kartoon] Man the flow got 'em very jealous Besides that I'm from a coast where ya b**h a** could be gone In 30 seconds Dickie this dickie that you in perry ellis California sunshine compliment the heavy carrots If it's beef three words 1,8,7 n***as get popped and start singing like Faith Evans n***as know I got a gift they must hate presents Spray up everything look like the case spelling Had to settle for the d cause we hate failing Hit after hit I'm like the hip-hop Hank Aaron I'm in the BX riding with cali On the ds Doing drivebys off the T-Rex Got love on the west and the es We don't play games guns stashed in the ps And ps y'all n***as is bs We kick swing and take shots at you like it's recess [Hook] If it's beef The hood know what it is (Tell'em Kiss) The hood know what it is If it's Beef (Yeah) The hood know what it is Three words 1-8-7 (*repeat 2X*) [Verse 3 - Infa.Red] The hood know what it is We setting up rat traps, f** ya ascap Can't hide behind platinum plaques Cause when the A.R. 15's get the poppin That's when your artists'll really be droppin I ain't talkin 'bout release dates I'm talking 'bout this Ruff Ryder lifestyle in every single state You feeling lucky roll the dice who got the bank stop it Throw'em in the bathroom he getting outta pocket Mock it, chop it, do what you will I just wanna see your mans' face in the street when his blood spill Man made the money money never made the man That's why you'll never see security where I stand And we stil tryin to eat You poppin sh** from your hotel with federallies In your suite Two shots of patrone, then I run up in your home Cut the wire to your phone, strangle you then I'm gone Who want it [Hook] If it's beef The hood know what it is (Tell'em Kiss) The hood know what it is If it's Beef (Yeah) The hood know what it is Three words 1-8-7 (*repeat 2X*) [Verse 4 - Flashy] Well it's that flashy n***a with a flow so through the roof The way I do the booth all they say is you the truth Yeah I was with that other label but I flew the coop Now I'm Ryding and Dying it's Ruff Ryders new recruit And do remember we ain't all about the music duke Cause every member of my family got a screw that's loose And when it's drama all we do is shoot with guns so big They put a hole through you the size of a hoola - hoop Believe you me the streets do see That lyrically I'm in a zone like a 3 2 D If I ain't DWI-ing up the BQE I'm blowin some boon with Toon in a 323 Flashy n***a it ain't a flow to match up to it This that music that make a n***a act up to it You might get smacked stabbed or clapped up to it I'm so head of my time I find myself tryin to catch up to it you know [Hook] If it's beef The hood know what it is (Tell'em Kiss) The hood know what it is If it's Beef (Yeah) The hood know what it is Three words 1-8-7 (*repeat 2X*) You know what they want right (*repeat 2X*) Three words 1-8-7
