[ VERSE 1 ]
|
Once upon a time there was a big diesel kid
|
Who just got sprung from a 10 year bid
|
10 years is a long time, he left as a pup
|
But came out as an adult, about to act up
|
Out on the block he played the average street games
|
Gamblin, scramblin, just to build up a name
|
Pumped a few pockets, he got on the spot
|
Not until he bought a Benz did his name get hot
|
Out on the streets slingin big rocks on concrete
|
Those who tried to play him, they cold got beat
|
I mean cold, you dissed him and you just got smoked
|
Then he'd take your spot and leave your family broke
|
Even five-o was petro and wouldn't even act up
|
To give him a ticket, they'd have to call in for back-up
|
That's how extra and large the boy got
|
Just gettin started in the game of a big shot
|
|
(Gangsta boogie, gangsta boogie)
|
|
[ VERSE 2 ]
|
It only took two years for all of this to occur
|
He met a light-skinned squally and flipped over her
|
She was dope alright, but the girl was so young
|
Her eyes was so lovely that money was strung
|
This kid was 23 and the girl 16
|
See, another street king had now found his queen
|
And he was runnin things, puttin others in fear
|
Makin 20 g's a week, and that's a million a year
|
Steppin out to the club with his girl in a mink
|
Wearin custom-made jewels and big fat links
|
Go upstairs where his place would be set
|
With the choice of Dom Perrignon or Mo?
|
Four soldiers undercover loungin with his brother
|
Everybody strapped with a vest and a rubber
|
Just in case somebody's girl got hot
|
But she was bagged and ragged in the club by a big shot
|
|
Extra large
|
|
[ VERSE 3 ]
|
Spots from the east to the westside he ran
|
If money was power, then this kid was He-Man
|
Never again would homeboy go thirsty
|
Cause he bought a mansion in Patterson New Jersey
|
The house that was owned by Lou Castello
|
At the age of 25 life was so mellow
|
A father of 4, each had different mothers
|
That's to my knowledge, might have had others
|
Nothin could go wrong, the world was his
|
Until one day somebody gave him a quiz
|
To see if he was thorough or just a front
|
A kid pulled out and got smoked like a blunt
|
The brother knew how to react on impact
|
Bust him in the shoulders, opened up his back
|
Three more to go, what was four deep
|
Who were sent on a mission to put him to sleep
|
He dipped in a Benz, bein pursued by a van
|
Picked up the cellular phone to call his man
|
They strapped up and loaded up in the trucks
|
With A.K.'s, nines and Uzis, ready to buck
|
Now homebody was doin like 100 quick
|
Down the block cold jettin and not sweatin conflict
|
Bullets were flyin from the van behind him
|
His boys were rollin, but they couldn't find him
|
The city was large, and they had to think fast
|
He had on a vest, but what if he crashed?
|
The brother made a right, and what happens then?
|
A big yellow sign that read 'dead end'
|
Now he could give his soul to the essence to keep
|
All of a sudden there were shots from a black jeep
|
It was his young girl who met him at the spot
|
Cause she was always taught first hand from a big shot
|
|
[ VERSE 4 ]
|
19 year old female was so bold
|
Her and the homegirls always had ammo
|
The brothers in the van just kept on firin
|
Deep in the background the sounds of sirens
|
The kid in the Benz, got out and got shot
|
Caught two in the leg, and the leg was real hot
|
He fell to the ground with no strenght to run
|
The clip was empty in his automatic gun
|
The girl in the jeep had blocked off the street
|
Tryin to save a big shot from defeat
|
Crazy gunfire last for a while
|
But then came the trucks with the Bigfoot style
|
A.K.'s and Uzis weighed more than tons
|
Killed the three brothers that tried to run
|
The ones who lived were arrrested by the cops
|
But the charges were dropped, the judges were paid by big shots
|
|
[ VERSE 5 ]
|
Listen, it's not hard to take charge
|
Life of a big shot is extra large
|
Strictly do or die, makin moves direct
|
Cause a big shot will always get just due respect
|
>From east to west coast, mainly minorities
|
Make enough money to buy the authorities
|
Dollars are chill when the women are real hot
|
So no matter what, you'll always remember a big shot
|
