Pete Rock - The World is Yours (2014) lyrics

[Intro] [Hook] (Who's world is this) it belong to the fam Gun in a hand running on your land with robbery plans (Who's world is this) it belong to my n***as Getting richer figures off the ground we build up (Who's world is this) f** it it belong to me Writing songs to beats my pen's the armory you isn't harming me (Who's world is this) whoever want that sh** Hold tight enjoy the ride you only life one life [Verse 1] Constant struggles occasional sparkers blast and light up the sky Lighting up lah inhaling smoke inside Business minds that view through lowered eyes never fold to life blowing thick fogs Engulfed in clouds of smoke avoiding entries to the morgue Wanna f** some sh** up give it to the courts get it right give it to the Lord Visions abroad my train of thought Derailed by flossy bars of gold that cost I'm Malcolm X Discover brotherhood amongst my brothers in the hood All for change and growth my brain was stained with drops of 80 proof Drunk in my thoughts I stumbled squinted as my sight was a blur I seen the rise and fall of legends in a matter of seconds In flashbacks in came and went that fast call to my brethren Offer pause for thought through rhetorical question You can say you making moves but 'til you actually stepping You potential turn kinetic mistakes teach lessons To my n***as trying to make it sh** is ours for the taking [Hook] [Verse 2] L's rolled in poet scrolls blowing power smoke I write the words of Edgar Allen Poe Brain is wrinkled play with p holes grazed by fading clouds of tree smoke Greet the holy father hoes is born from daughters Golden globe performers dressed up looking gorgeous Money get apportioned shorties get abortions pregnant with the wrong men Hanging out at night and over in the morning older growing Words is blessings like when water break we spy on y'all like Watergate Lie in court they say you snitching if your time cut short Beers and blunts school around the corner kids is gearing up Beef approach ain't no fear in us taking rapping matters serious Hit it 'til I bust dreams of living lush Drown in liquor cups my n***as get the love Divide and conquer why we riding tight to stomp you 'bout to be a common face like Robert Deniro and Al Pacio Let out your weed smoke to my n***as hold it as long as it take to roll it Word we going global million dollar vocals [Hook] [Verse 3] I walk with a lean talk of green Slaughtered teams appear in haunted scenes Smoke abroad the coldest hearts that plot on gold and bolder cars Acts of true beef reenacts the movies Bring the screen to life like Tony when the shotty strike It can happen to you the crown been fitted Down a round of liquor sound my thoughts aloud And towns surround get louder with him nodding heads in rhythm n***as dead and gone it's sickening lost amongst the system prisons Mixed emotions sip and pa** the potion screw your face the taste is potent Hand in motion join the greatest poets Note the world and put it in the open youngster up and comers Make no room for runner uppers somethings in the water Got these daughters thicker than the ones they followed Bottle drama stretch the saga good Samaritans believe in karma Bring it often keep the team responsive even in the days of darkness We parlay and spark 'em 'til we lay in coffins take it if its offered [Hook] [Outro]
