|
| Nigga, you a (Lame)
|
| You’s the fag model for Karl Kani, Esco ads
|
| Went from Nasty Nas to Esco’s trash
|
| Had a spark when you started, but now, you’re just garbage
|
| Fell from top ten to not mentioned at all
|
| To your bodyguard’s «Oochie Wally» verse better than yours (Oochie wally wally,
|
| oochie wally wally)
|
| Matter of fact, you had the worst flow on the whole fuckin' song
|
| But I know, the sun don’t shine if son don’t shine
|
| That’s why your (Lame), career’s come to an end
|
| It’s only so long fake thugs can pretend
|
| Nigga, you ain’t live it, you witnessed it from your folks' pad (Yup)
|
| You scribbled it in your notepad and created your life
|
| I showed you your first TEC on tour with Large Professor (Me, that’s who)
|
| Then I heard your album 'bout your TEC on the dresser
|
| So yeah, I sampled your voice, you was using it wrong (I'm out for dead fuckin'
|
| presidents to represent me)
|
| You made it a hot line, I made it a hot song (Woo)
|
| And you ain’t get a coin, nigga, you was gettin' fucked then
|
| I know who I paid, God, Serchlite Publishing
|
| Use your (Brain)
|
| You said you’ve been in this ten, I’ve been in it five, smarten up, Nas
|
| Four albums in ten years, nigga? |
| I could divide
|
| That’s one every, let’s say two, two of them shits was doo
|
| One was nah, the other was Illmatic
|
| That’s a one hot album every ten year average
|
| And that’s so (Lame)
|
| Nigga, switch up your flow, your shit is garbage
|
| What, you tryna kick knowledge? |
| (Fuck outta here)
|
| Y’all niggas gon' learn to respect the king
|
| Don’t be the next contestant on that Summer Jam screen
|
| Because you-know-who (Who)
|
| Did you-know-what (What?), with you-know-who (Yeah)
|
| But just keep that between me and you for now |

| A wise man told me don’t argue with fools
|
| ‘Cause people from a distance can’t tell who is who
|
| So stop with that childish shit, nigga, I’m grown
|
| Please leave it alone, don’t throw rocks at the throne
|
| Do not bark up that tree, that tree will fall on you
|
| I don’t know why your advisers ain’t forewarn you
|
| Please, not Jay, he’s not for play
|
| I don’t slack a minute, all that thug rappin' and gimmicks
|
| I will end it, all that yappin' be finished
|
| You are not deep, you made your bed, now sleep
|
| Don’t make me expose you to them folks that don’t know you
|
| Nigga, I know you well, all the stolen jewels
|
| Twinkletoes, you’re breakin' my heart
|
| Can’t fuck with me, go play somewhere, I’m busy
|
| And all you other cats throwin' shots at Jigga
|
| You only get half a bar, fuck y’all niggas |
