| Intro Sample:
|
| Shit, motherfucker you talkin' to the kid
|
| Talking (Brother Ali):
|
| Yeah. |
| Ladies and gentlemen. |
| Boys and girls
|
| The one and only Brother Ali is in the house tonight
|
| That’s me. |
| We gettin' directly into this right here
|
| Verse One:
|
| Hold up
|
| Do you mind? |
| I’m trying to build a kingdom here
|
| Walk to the store with your boy let’s get a ginger beer
|
| Listen here I got some shit to sprinkle in your ear
|
| Rip and tear the kick and snare, whistle like Rakim was near
|
| Independent penmanship, sending bitch-tendency-havin'-rich-rappers to their
|
| residences
|
| My present tense is legendary livin'
|
| Like my fifty grand merch, work for what I’m givin'
|
| Build and add to it with the skill I mastered it
|
| Carefully grabbin' shit to build a castle with
|
| Ended up champion of underground rappin'
|
| It ain’t what I imagined but I still ain’t mad at it
|
| I’m in a college town bossin' that crowd around
|
| Raise your hands, wave em up, do it like this and holler out
|
| Like a Gladiator movie score
|
| Try to teach a cracker rapper how to clap on two and four
|
| In the crowd I’m shakin' peoples hands
|
| Just to take an equal stance with my barely legal fans
|
| Can’t believe they ass came and heard him raw
|
| Made em want to run and hug him with a sweaty shirt and all
|
| Labels turn me off, I ain’t what they lookin' for
|
| I ain’t got a six pack, tatoo or a bullet hole
|
| But I’m muscle underneath all that
|
| You get your peanut smacked
|
| I scrap like I’m Butterbean on crack
|
| How he manage not to catch heat flashes?
|
| On stage Adidas jacket doin' Heavy D dances
|
| These rappers are graffiti on canvas
|
| Even if they snappin' they could only be half of it
|
| I say shit motherfucker shit
|
| Ali and them sitting on another hit
|
| He got his fist up to the government
|
| Still tryin' to get his dick sucked, son of a bitch
|
| So let me talk my shit
|
| C’mon now, let me talk my shit
|
| Calm down, let me talk my shit
|
| Verse Two:
|
| Let me start off my shit like this
|
| Quiet down now the masters rappin'
|
| And Ant got his back trying to craft a classic
|
| Joe Mabbott track, they have to grab it
|
| Like my dick when they… naw, I ain’t sayin' that shit
|
| We all thought some weak lines by now
|
| But you actually rewind and write yours down
|
| And walked your behind in the studio to speak it
|
| And then decide to keep it and release it
|
| So either you believe it
|
| Or you don’t give three shits about havin' lyrics, you can take it or leave it
|
| So if you’re not really thinkin' about the things that you say
|
| Then don’t call me a hater when I feel the same way
|
| Came up in the day, listening to the greats
|
| Learned to smell a fake half a continent away
|
| I ain’t dumbin' down you’re gonna have to smarten up
|
| Too tough, your blade ain’t sharp enough to cut
|
| Bout to fuck em up
|
| Someone should have ran and told him that I’m nuts
|
| Buttercup ain’t tryin' to knuckle up
|
| Sock 'em in the eye, baby, slug 'em in the gut
|
| Should have never let the Brother run amok
|
| What the fuck!
|
| Verse Three:
|
| Big bad, fat ass
|
| Cat that can rap fast
|
| Straight up nasty like a New Orleans lap dance
|
| Last chance to pass on the chitterlings
|
| But act now and we can still split a thing of chicken wings
|
| Fredo Corleone, bitch kiss the pinky ring
|
| Backpack raps answer to Sam Kinison
|
| Is in your town
|
| Act like your shit isn’t brown
|
| Your highness probably piss sitting down
|
| These Eddie Brock MCs is so venomous
|
| Can’t seem to picture the authenticness
|
| Trying to keep up is bad for your health
|
| It’s a walk in the park, I’m photographing myself
|
