[DJ U-Neek:]
|
From the east coast followers, to the west coast riders
|
DJ U-Neek and Violator presents
|
The ghetto's top dawgs
|
[laughing]
|
|
[Chorus: Satasha Williams]
|
We're standing
|
Strong
|
So come on (So come on)
|
Get ya roll on
|
|
[Verse 1: The Notorious B.I.G.]
|
I went from
|
Construction Timbs, to Ac's with rims
|
Flippin' mixtapes
|
To bitches, feedin' me grapes
|
Feed my mind state
|
Big Poppa flow is lethal
|
That weed make my ass wanna kill four people
|
Fuck the game, gimme the dame and the Range
|
My niggas up to pawn drop-top Jaguars
|
I'll blow you when you step in the car
|
That's that superstar
|
Status apparatus
|
More wiz to Cassius
|
Cease, roll the hashes, in the pocket with the nine
|
Roll up the whole dime
|
As my seats recline
|
I want a presidential Roley (So)
|
So I crush
|
Emcees to guacamole, makin' Robin scream, "Holy moley! "
|
Big Poppa
|
Fuck a cape, I'm that Paper
|
Crusader
|
Playing Sega
|
In the wide body Blazer
|
|
[Coolio:]
|
I shot dice with a priest and drank yak with a pastor
|
So much, me, myself and I know
|
My own lord and master
|
When your ass was born, it was all on the lone, and
|
When it's time to die, you'll be all alone, so
|
Open up your mind, ball up your knuckle bone, and
|
Start taking care of your own
|
Nigga
|
Everybody's human with the nature of a sinner
|
So I look inside myself to gather strength from the inner
|
I gots to fight back against the powers that be
|
Cause the powers that be, be
|
Tryin' to fight me
|
Standin' at the crossroads, but I wasn't by myself
|
Some take the right and
|
Some take the lefts, but
|
Lo and behold
|
What do I see
|
In the distance
|
Some resistance
|
|
[Doodlebug:]
|
Well, I traveled the land, like my man in Kung Fu
|
Moshin' up this hip hop scene, with my Digable
|
Crew
|
Now you and you know the science, so don't front
|
Cause Brooklyn won't front, naw, we don't front
|
In fact
|
It's gettin' like a daily operation
|
Cenilish born, represents my young nation
|
And I'm facin'
|
Opposition
|
In every form
|
So my man choose Squad 7, our's is on a swarm
|
Like crazily
|
Cause it don't pay to be
|
A black man in the land of mental slavery
|
They say
|
"Cash Rules Everything Around Me"
|
True
|
So what I gotta do to be as lavished as you
|
I don't roll with no crew
|
That do the same ol' same
|
So I travel the seventh plane, by way of coal train
|
Now that's an I'll thought
|
Niggas get caught
|
In my wisdom
|
Because the number 7's like the master of a rhythm
|
|
[Big Mike:]
|
It ain't surprisin'
|
These motherfuckers still hatin'
|
They must don't know
|
I ain't that nigga to be played with
|
It's been stated
|
Way back in '88
|
That a nigga like Mike'll stomp the head of a snake
|
Now quakes was felt
|
When my feet hit the ground
|
And fate's failed
|
When my heat made a sound
|
Now
|
How did I relate what's gonna fall
|
When my niggas made the fuckin' final call
|
We started out small
|
Now we got a staff a nation wide
|
1995, how many heads are gonna fly
|
With that rootin'
|
Tootin'
|
Southside shootin'
|
Bootin' any nigga who ain't troopin', with Huey Newton
|
Fuck disputin', when it's time for a change
|
Nigga, what you gon' do
|
When we rearrange the game
|
Blow 'em out the frame
|
With new ideas
|
We's about the game, lyrics puttin' me down out here
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Verse 2: Buckshot]
|
I stepped in the jam with the guard on my side
|
And the guard S.T. is still waitin' in the ride
|
So I
|
Stepped to the DJ and told the DJ, "Yo
|
Throw the wax on"
|
How many emcees must get dissed (Dissed)
|
The mist from the blunt's smoke
|
Decides who's next on my list
|
Can you feel the hiss
|
From the snake, move in my direction
|
No U-turn, you gettin' burned from the sun
|
In my intersection
|
The guard has spoked
|
Sword strokin'
|
If you think you ready for affair
|
One, pay ya token
|
On my Soul Train (Uh)
|
Control your brain (Uh)
|
Buck Town representative
|
Breakin' down, like a ki of cocaine
|
Straight from the lab
|
And I still elevate past
|
The snakes and the crabs
|
Fuck it (Boot Camp Click)
|
|
[Redman:]
|
It's that Funkadelic
|
Funk Doctor Spock, inhale it
|
Fuck the best, niggas better start puttin' on helmets
|
I roam the streets, where there |
