Masta Ace - Ace of Diamonds lyrics

[Verse One] Y'all rap careers all headed south like Route 1-9 You're an artist but you only got one design That's a name you can underline It's dark underground but I don't wait for the sun to shine Every rapper on their summer grind Some are deaf, some are dumb and some are blind I'm in the first category cause I can't hear ya n***as, tell your label I'm the one to sign I'm the one they should run and find Who can do what I do?Not that many come to mind When it come to rhyme - I'm like Dr.Seuss Not a crip but got some sh** that can stop a truce Prosecutor and I got the proof Rappers say they got a lot of money but that's not the truth When I spit you can lock the booth And throw away the key, what you see here'll shock the youth Cause any rapper in my age range must've failed and looking to get a grade change But I crush that theory when you look and you hear me, you know what you see is way strange Lot of n***as off their A games I diss 'em all but I ain't sayin names But if I'm forced and I have to You know that I will, better chill before I come at you Ace [Hook] "Listen closely" "I am the man in charge" "Yeah" "Diamon in the back" "You know the ammo" "No biting allowed" [Verse Two] Yeah, we go together like sweater and hat With Diamond on the track what could be better than that? To be contestant with just a incredible ? Cookin up a main cause with this eateble rap The game of life is like a knife, dead in the back Watch how you walk or get caught with your leg in the trash The first step is they gon' ask what colors you rep The red, white and the blue or the green,red and the black They always try to make us pick up a side I refuse to be one of them dudes they kick aside I am still a great force to be reckoned with Diggin In The Crates, that's who I'm reppin' with Yup, y'all ain't used to this sort of sk**s We've been nice since British Walkers and quaterfields And y'all can have all them singin' thugs The Ace and Dime are still greater than the king of clubs [Hook] "You wanna get this"
