| Yo I got 24 bars to heal these scars
|
| I’m a underground cat but still like money and cars
|
| I’ll introduce myself, check it out, ladies and gentlemen
|
| The one and only Evidence servin' up your medicine
|
| Varsity letterman, E on my coat
|
| Every time I touch the paper, it’s murder he wrote
|
| I’m from a real big city called watch where you go
|
| A place you think you know only to find out you don’t
|
| Born in L.A. it’s hard to get star struck
|
| Born in L.A. so I always keep my guard up
|
| Born in L.A. plus still where I stay
|
| Everyday, cats like Julio G paved the way
|
| Me crew’s thick, all sharp, take a pick
|
| All ready to spit or sit down and write a hit
|
| We learned both from the best on both coasts
|
| Couldn’t stress enough all the times we’ve killed shows
|
| (Bounce) Problem here, problem there, got through 'em
|
| Label here, label there, politics and bullshit
|
| We rip, the mic’s cocked back, a full clip
|
| I don’t preach I rap, I’m on stage, this ain’t a pulpit
|
| This is it, we’re up and runnin', torches lit
|
| Prepare for marathons, we don’t sprint
|
| I save my crew’s name for last, injection’s lethal
|
| It’s L.A.'s finest y’all, it’s Dilated Peoples
|
| Y’all can’t sleep now («I rap caffeine»)
|
| Play for keeps, we play for keeps now («I rap caffeine»)
|
| Y’all can’t sleep, y’all can’t sleep now («I rap caffeine»)
|
| Play for keeps, we play for keeps now («I rap caffeine»)
|
| It’s people you know, it’s people you don’t
|
| It’s people involved that shouldn’t be, you gotta keep close
|
| It’s people you know, it’s people you don’t
|
| It’s people involved that shouldn’t be, you gotta keep close
|
| I got that flow for the street
|
| Stay ahead of the time, stay behind the beat
|
| It’s not what you know but what you can prove
|
| Everyday they keep chasin' me down with little clues
|
| It’s Dilated, from Lost Angels
|
| You didn’t know, friends make better music than strangers
|
| So far I’ve been misunderstood
|
| Wherever I fall, I make the category look good
|
| 26 years young when I wrote this down
|
| My whole life ahead of me, I was known in my town
|
| Things started to change and started to stretch
|
| The farther away I went the closer to home I started to get
|
| (Yeah) My actions cause reaction
|
| Some love or hate shit (I don’t ask) It just happens
|
| Either or, we came to get it started
|
| Before the show find me at the bar drinkin' Bacardi
|
| This is it, cats worked hard to have things
|
| Here to keep the party up, I rap caffeine
|
| I save my crew’s name for last, injection’s lethal
|
| It’s L.A.'s finest, it’s Dilated Peoples
|
| Y’all can’t sleep now («I rap caffeine»)
|
| Play for keeps, we play for keeps now («I rap caffeine»)
|
| Y’all can’t sleep, y’all can’t sleep now («I rap caffeine»)
|
| Play for keeps, we play for keeps now («I rap caffeine»)
|
| It’s people you know, it’s people you don’t
|
| It’s people involved that shouldn’t be, you gotta keep close
|
| It’s people you know, it’s people you don’t
|
| It’s people involved that shouldn’t be, you gotta keep close
|
| It’s people you know, it’s people you don’t
|
| It’s people involved that shouldn’t be, you gotta keep close
|
| It’s people you know, it’s people you don’t
|
