You don't want to have The whole police department in your district, searching Take my words serious—don't misinterpret If you love life, it isn't worth it. How you want it? You want to Continue breathing and fulfill your purpose (Or) or forever sleep under the surface? Your choice, n***a [Verse 2: Poison Pen] We distinguished gentlemen. Don't take humility for knock-off When it pop off, we extinguish gentlemen We show resilience, patience. Emvees Outpost, Africans, Brazilians, Jamaicans And Haitains, plus some good old Yankee boys North of the Mason-Dixon. Accent swagger Cla**ic character, New York. Except it's on some Hero sh**. We great but getting overlooked On some teeth-row sh**. Yes, a God indeed blow sh** Rap's my comp. Little b**h, I got to feed those kids Pardon my slur. It's the liquor, my n***a How I throw in bets, highs, lows, and reds Ha. It's not over yet. We roll over tombs without playing No role of a goon.

You had that shot back Heh [Hook: Samples with DJ Static Scratches] (x2) “Bring that soul where I'm from, run blocks over for fun” - Sample from Poison Pen on Breez Evahflowin's “Billy Goats Gruff” “If I speak, is real” - Sample from Poison Pen on Breez Evahflowin's “Billy Goats Gruff” [Interlude 1 (Overlapped with Hook): Breez Evahflowin'] Outpost, Emvees like: yo (Yeah), yo (Yeah), yo (Yo) [Verse 3: Breez Evahflowin'] Unshakeable. Take a whole eighth to the dome And when we high, you ain't taking us on. It's like the lye Only making us strong and make me want to drop science like Science ain't make no unbreakable bones Best to catch me alone and don't let me make the phone call My team to y'all is a guillotine through a snowball Snowflake bring it, be a failure in the business Like that n***a in the flick, answering his kicks like hoecakes OK. They need someone to rock the place (“It Takes Two”) from uptown, where they Rob for Base And BK, BX on the tables of steel To have your head nodding so hard, it's able to k** For real, who want next? X marks the challenger My Temple spits Doom, check hearts like, “Kali maa” You hit the club with your squad. I'll hit the club with the car Hit the floor ‘cause I'm breaking the bars [Verse 4: Supastar Billy Graham] Y'all done did it, marathoned your mouth, ran with it Shifty prom mate, I must admit y'all could get it f** what you say about my image. Scrambling through life Like Vick from the line of scrimmage (Watch the kid) My diddy bop is so crazy. See my arms swing Chains swing, ding-a-ling to my shoelace strings swing Only time you're down to bang Is if your girl is down the train (Hahaha) Hehe. You n***as is h*mos. Talk about guns The last you saw one was Grand Theft Auto Stick to writing your jingles and promos I got a hot lawyer that'll get you all your points pro bono Quit grilling, homie. Take a photo.
