[Chorus]
|
[Common sample] And you say Chi city
|
We don't stop naw we don't quit
|
[Repeat 4X]
|
|
[Common]
|
I rap with the passion of Christ, @#%$ cross me
|
Took it outta space and @#%$ thought they lost me
|
I'm back like a chiropract wit b-boy survival rap
|
This ain't '94 Joe we can't go back
|
The game need a makeover
|
My man retired, I'ma take over
|
Tell these halftime @#%$ break's over
|
I'm raw hustlas getcha bakin' soda
|
Too many rape the culture
|
Leave rappers with careers and their faith over
|
It's a war goin' on you can't fake bein' a soldier
|
In the basement listenin' to tapes of Ultramagnetic to the fact I'm a science black
|
I turn the TV down we could take it higher than that
|
I wonder if these wack @#%$ realize they wack
|
And they the reason my people say they tired of rap
|
Inspired by black Muslims and Christian
|
Pushin' Cutlasses, dope, and other traditions
|
In the conditions of the city, the city, the city, the city, the city, the city, c'mon
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
A black figure, in the middle of chaos and gun fire
|
So many raps about rims, I'm surprised @#%$ ain't become tires
|
On the street you turn code and then go screech
|
I tell em @#%$ em, like I do the police
|
The beast in runnin' rampant
|
I'm in between sheets tryna have sex that's tantric
|
But the getto, tryna make a get up stand up anthem
|
You spit hot garbage son of Sanford
|
What you rappin' for to get fame or get rich
|
I slap a @#%$ like you
|
And tell him Rick James bitch
|
Witcha Hollywood stories on porches
|
We poli hood stories on who became rich
|
And whatever light they hit, we wanna hit the same switch
|
You didn't know where to aim it, you still remain bitch
|
I'm forever puttin' words together
|
Some'll sever mothers from daughters and fathers from sons
|
The name Com has never been involved in Run
|
Unless it's DMC or runnin' these broads to bein' free
|
I'm hotta than the times, you hardly scary
|
Holdin' gats inside, you cats is Halle Berry
|
They ask me where hip hop is goin', a Chicagoan
|
Poetry's in motion like a picture now showin'
|
It's the city, the city y'all, the city, the city y'all
|
C'mon
|
|
[Chorus]
