Paul Shabazz - Project Hallways lyrics

n***as catchin bodies in the project hallways Project hallways, the project hallways.. Project hallways, the project hallways.. Step in to my highrise hell You gots to be on the up and up Watch your back, pump your crack But don't forget to re-up A burner's your God and you pray to it all day Then at night, you catch a body But it's just the sh** you got to do Cause if you wasn't watchin, they'd catch your a** too You gotta go all out if you want props Or you can just k** a man, and it's the same for cops Now you want a little fame from the drug game Whether you shoot em up, or pump cracks, it's all the same But f** it you're in it to win it Fat uptown, cookies in the rocks, your spot's hot Now you're livin the life of a project sad song Makin your loot from all the right wrongs But that's the way it goes when you choose your path And you might just, feel the pain of a tec 22 blast All out war, with n***as from the next block You're pullin out the Glock, to shut em down Now you're Mr. Big Shot in your tribe n***as know your name from Mt. Vernon, to Southside Comin from the streets of Fright Where the only thing you'll know is how to roll it up right And load it up, tight, you're startin a block war n***a pull the trigga if you want a little more Frank Nitty style, buckwild Thirty-eight slugs from uptown thugs No question, you're true to the game Since the age of a little Brand Nubian From skelly tops to props ? and all that Now you're puttin your block on the map A role model to the petty drug dealers Banana clip style, my neighborhood's buckwild You can't forget who you came from See you later maybe sooner in the project hallways Project hallways, the project hallways n***as catchin bodies in the project hallways Project hallways, the project hallways n***as catchin bodies in the project hallways Project hallways, the project hallways n***as catchin bodies A little hellbound n***a, shoot em up, light em up Pull the trigger, pa** the 40 in the project hallways Runnin through the doorways, back in the days Just a little snot nosed ba*tard Always causin havoc, with a blade But now it's a burner, used, for murder Step a little closer and your a** is gra** You better move fast 'fore I kick that a** Cause I'm sharp like gla**, but I won't break Walk into the project hallways is your big mistake You little b**h a** n***a, you shoulda known better You'll get done, did, a kid from the 'Bridge Who gets buck, and couldn't give a f** about your daze I'm talkin bout the project hallways Catchin bodies in the project hallways Project hallways, chillin in the project hallways To survive around my way You gotta play a knuckle game every day Lost in the shuffle of hardrocks And knocks on the streets of the uptown blocks Load the Glocks, who got the mox' A little gun bangin bad-a** project thug You're in the wrong part of town kid Mr. Buddha on the 13th floor, gimme some more Sess bag it up real quick kid Tap the ? sh**, the brew, pa** the Phil' What's my name? n***as call me little shorty gets ill And bag em up on the street corner And bust em open in the project hallways Check it out, yo Around the way kid the sun don't shine Phillie blunts kid I got what you want and it's time My dialogue with the project cause motivate Move, what? I never lose Freestyle project hallway style But the sh** ain't real unless you got that buddha filled Chalm, keep me goin on when I perform Charge the brain, lick em up, that's the name of the game So it's the move when I move little smooth On the motherf**in mission and I just improve Upstairs, n***as dyin on the 6th floor Cause in the projects, sh** is mad rough So take a puff and relax your mind J.V. crimes, most of the time You might catch my crew, with a sixty-four brew Watch your back, cause we're comin through With a fat sack of 1-2-1 son And the sh** ain't fun, unless I get some Of the action, little shorty execute I'm k**in n***as in the hallways Til there ain't no more left to shoot So if you can't take the heat, stay out of the ways Before you 'come a victim of the project hallways Project hallways, the project hallways n***as catchin bodies in the project hallways Project hallways, the project hallways n***as catchin bodies in the project hallways Project hallways, the project hallways n***as catchin bodies in the project hallways Project hallways, the project hallways n***as shoot em up in the project hallways
