[sample of "If and When" by The Three Degrees + Fat Joe]
|
I can see loneliness, heading my way
|
The light, of love has blown out (it's a new day y'all)
|
Now your shadow's gone away, you took awayyyyy
|
|
[Fat Joe speaking over sample - can't be heard]
|
Crack, uhh

|
And no I ain't lettin y'all niggaz ruin my name - it's CRACK! [echoes]... That's right, the welcome mat on the ground ain't the same
|
Damn right ya homey Joe done changed
|
Let's be honest y'all niggaz left me to die on that cold December day
|
BUT, I survived; so much if you thought I
|
would pull up in the corner and die, not I... No people, not me
|
As long as Streetrunner keep makin them hot beats
|

|
Make hits for the ladies with my niggaz Cool and Dre, CRACK! [echoes]... Know if you mention the name

[sample: "I need your love"]
|
|
I spit blaze all, napalm, the mic technician
|
Coulda blazed y'all but gave y'all a slight condition
|
Never to defy my wishes
|
I'm the king of NY, all these other niggaz liars and bitches
|
Who you know spit dope, with a name like Cook
|
Niggaz say, that he ain't, but ain't I good?
|
Got the whole fuckin industry shook; matter fact the streets
|
Cause all the killers come home clappin for me
|
Ain't no peace on the streets with these Spanish kids
|
Just another cop beating in Los Angeles
|
Yup! You guessed it the President didn't say shit
|
'Nother vacation, chillin in Camp David
|
And they wonder why the hood's so hot
|
My pops locked up, my moms cooked rock
|
And just the other day Lil' Troy got shot
|
over a 2 dollar dice game, way to lose your life mayne
|
