Lyrics

if u looking at the corner its not getting any warmer
still hot like a suana say goodbye like a gonner
im not settin no alarms off but i leave it smoking
now u looking for the fire n im looking for the opening
picking off the sugar coating.. nah ima bust open
like a tennis pro im trying to get dese secrets to the open
still trying to figure out how my other niggas coping
bet they inescope like they got signed by the label
cause thes papaerazzi photos getting labeld with these fabels
they aint able tho these tattle tales watch us like cable
tho we will never fall live n die for god like abel
n we stable , therobread run laps around they cradles
cause these babies cry mercedies when they pushing bmxes
only vex us cause i meet my quota pushing a tyota
u a little short of green im mistaking u for yoda
thought u said u had money big balling aint ur hobby
try to do that hot toddy but these cats moving sloppy
tell me if u copy errbody in a rush
had a brush with death keeping paste like colgate
then i said wait i control my fate
biggest lie that i told my self.. these cats interfearin like the US help
n i dun brunt the bridges that could save my scalp
now im in the water trying to swim like phelps

now the water drips.. i see we living off a drips
we aint grasping nuttin solid just holding on to hints
n im seeing nuttin sights narrow like we squinting
try to be a prophet see the future.. new edition
found the key to life but it broke in de ignition
so i be walking round chasing bread like a pigeion
bite the hand that feeds me.. only keep me cause they need me
the establishment is greedy they dont care about the needy
niggas still getting poor like the skills on the c team
i bring it real like the scenes not seen on tv
while u bring it real like the shows on mtv
claiming to be reall but they really wanna be me
but i keep it moving like that bus on speed
before i self destruct n just bust on deeds
cause niggas think they own me but im busting free
in the land of the blind the cyclops is king
but i see with both eyes what does that make him
does it make me greater as the next to kin
to stand next to kings im out steping them
niggas claim leader but move like politicions
telling lies to the ppl to advance they own position
try to get u in a mission just for experimentation
iran like the middles east but now im back to take it back like kweli
so we all get a taste like 6 packs n 40s
