Yeah So what if you flip a couple words, I could triple that in Verse Open your mind you see the circus in the sky I'm Ringling Brothers, Barnum & Bailey with the pies No matter how you slice it, I'm your motherf**in' guy And just like a B-Boy with 360 waves Do the same with the pot, still come back beige Whether right or southpaw, whether pot or a jar Whip it around, it still comes back hard So easily do I W-H-I-P My repetition with riches will bring the kilo business I got Creole C-O b**hes, for my n***as who slipped Became prisoners, treats taped to the visitors You already know what the business is Unnecessary commissary, boy we live this sh** n***as wanna bring the '80s back That's okay with me, that's where they made me at Except I don't write on the wall I write my name in the history books hustlin' in the hall Nah, I don't spin on my head I spin my work into pot so I can spend my bread And I'm gettin' it, I'm gettin' it I ain't talkin' about it, I'm livin' it I'm gettin' it, straight gettin' it G-g-get it boy Don't waste your time fightin' the life Stay your course and you'll understand Get it boy This '87 state of mind that I'm in In my prime, so for that time I'm Rakim If it wasn't for the crime that I was in But I wouldn't be the guy whose rhymes it is that I'm in No pain, no profit P, I'll repeat it to show you where the pot is Cherry M3s with the top back Red and green G's all on my hat North Beach leathers, matchin' Gucci sweater Gucci sneaks on to keep my outfit together Whatever, hundred for the diamond chain Can't you tell that I came from the dope game? Blame Reagan for makin' me into a monster Blame Oliver North and Iran-Contra I ran contraband that they sponsored Before this rhymin' stuff we was in concert And I'm gettin' it, I'm gettin' it I ain't talkin' about it, I'm livin' it I'm gettin' it, straight gettin' it G-g-get it boy Don't waste your time fighting the life Stay your course and you'll understand Get it boy Push, money over broads you got it f** Bush, chef, guess what I cooked Baked a lot of bread and kept it off the books Rock star, look Way before the bars my picture was gettin' took Feds, they like whack rappers Try as they may they couldn't keep me on the hook D.A. wanna indict me 'Cause fish scales in my veins like a Pisces The Pyrex pot rolled up my sleeves Turned one into two like a Siamese twin When it end, I'ma stand as a man Never dying on my knees, last of a dyin' breed So let the champagne pop I partied for a while now I'm back to the block And I'm gettin' it, I'm gettin' it I ain't talkin' about it, I'm livin' it I'm gettin' it, straight gettin' it G-g-get it boy Don't waste your time fighting the life Stay your course and you'll understand Get it boy Blue Magic, that's a brand name Like Pepsi, that's a brand name I stand behind it, I guarantee it, they know that Even if they don't know me any more Than they know th-th-the chairman of General Mills
