Jay Z f/ Mary J. Blige
|
|
I'm makin short term goals, wonder whether foes
|
just put away the leathers and put ice on the gold
|
chilly with enough bail money to free a big willy
|
high stakes, i got more at stake than philly
|
shoppin sprees, copin three, duece fever i guess its fully loaded,
|
ah yes,
|
bouncin in the lex luger, tires smoke like buddha
|
50 g's to the crap shooter,
|
niggas can't fade me
|
chrome socks beamin, through my periphial i see ya schemin
|
stop dreamin',i leave ya body steamin
|
niggas is feenin, whats the meanin
|
i'm leanin on any nigga intervenin with the sound of my money machine-in
|
my cuff runnin over with hundreds
|
im one of the best niggas that done it
|
six digits and runnin,
|
y'all niggas don't want it
|
i got the godfather flow, the don juan demarco
|
swear to god, don't get it fucked up
|
|
(Chorus) ~Mary J. Blige
|
|
takin out this time
|
to give you a piece of my mind
|
(cause you can't knock the hustle)
|
but though you think you are
|
baby one day you'll be a star
|
|
that scene out of state where i drop my slang
|
i'm deep in the south kickin up top game
|
bouncin on the highway switchin 4 lanes
|
screamin through the sun roof money ain't a thang
|
your worst fear confirmed,
|
me and my fam roll tight like the firm
|
gettin down for life, thats right, you better learn
|
why play with fire, burn
|
we get together like a choir
|
to acquire what we desire
|
we do dirt like worms
|
produce g's like sperm
|
til legs spread like germs
|
i got extensive hoes, with expensive clothes
|
and i sip wine, and split ends exposed
|
but y'all don't know...
|
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
|
cause you can't knock the hustle
|
|
Mary J.Blige:
|
|
but until that day then
|
i'm the one whose crazy
|
cause thats the way ya makin me feel
|
(cause you can't knock the hustle)
|
i'm just tryin to get mine,
|
i don't have the time
|
to knock the hustle, for real!
|
|
y'all niggas lunchin, punchin a clock
|
my function is lo make much 'n' lay back munchin
|
sippin remy on rocks, my crew
|
somethin to watch nothin to stop
|
un...
|
...stoppable
|
scheme on the ice, i gotta hide your crew
|
i gotta
|
let you niggas know the time like movado
|
my motto,
|
stack rocks like colorado
|
bottle off the champagne, cristals by the bottle
|
its a damn shame what ya knot though
|
me slick like i got though (who?)
|
fuckin Jay-Z
|
pops knew exactly what he did when he made me
|
tried to get a nut and he got a nut and what
|
straight banana's
|
can a nigga, see me
|
got the US Open, advantage jigga
|
serve like sampras, play fake a rappers like a campus
|
(netigra???), son you're to eager
|
you ain't havin it? good, me either
|
lets get together and make this whole world believers
|
at my araignment, screamin
|
all these blacks got is sports and entertainment, until we even
|
thievin, as long as i'm breathin
|
can't knock the way a nigga eatin
|
fuck you even
|
