Lighters Up |
I come from Bed-Stuy |
Where niggaz either do or they gone die |
Gotta keep the Ratchett close by Someone murdered |
Nobody seen, nobody heard it Just another funeral service |
Niggaz will get at you |
Come through shinin', they yap you |
In broad daylight kidnap you |
Best get clap through |
Police stay on us like tattoos |
Niggaz only grind cuz’we have to Money is power |
Sling crack, weed, and powder |
Fiends come through every hour |
Its all about that dollar |
And we no deal with cowards |
Weak lamb get devoured |
By the lion in the concrete jungle, the strong stand and rumble |
The weak fold and crumble |
Its the land of trouble |
Brooklyn home of the greatest rappers |
BIG comes first then the queen comes after |
Now put your lighters up (Bed-Stuy) |
Put your lighters up (New-York) |
Put your lighters up (D.C.) |
Keep putting your lighters up (Philedelphia) |
Put your lighters up (Detroit) |
Put your lighters up (Chi-town) |
Keep putting them lighters up No matter where you from, put your lighters up Now, let me give you a walk through |
Show you what to do and you dont do Where its not safe to go to |
Them boys approach you |
Better say quick who you close to Dont come through if niggaz dont know you |
Cuz’people is talking |
The streets is watching |
The G’s is lurking |
Stash the nine in the garbage |
The life of a hustla |
The life of a gambler |
Dice game, kill more niggaz than cancer |
You know who you fuck with |
Brooklyn dont run, we run shit |
Roll up and just bumrush shit |
We dont play that |
Out in Bk, not at all, For a pound leave your face on the wall |
R.I.P in memory of, Never show thy enemies love |
We get it on where we live |
You better have a pass, when you cross that bridge |
Welcome to Brooklyn |
Put your lighters up (L.A.) |
Put your lighters up (V.A.) |
Put your lighters up (Texas) |
Keep putting your lighters up (New Orleans) |
Put your lighters up (St.louis) |
Put your lighters up (A-T-L) |
Keep putting them lighters up No matter where you from, Put your lighters up Damn homie I’m so tore |
And I dont think I’m ever gone somke no more |
And I dont think I’m ever gone drink no more |
But fuck it bartender you can give me one more |
(We in the club like) Damn homie I’m so tore |
(Lighting the dutch like) And I dont think I’m ever gone somke no more |
(Passing the bub like) And I dont think I’m ever gone smoke no more |
(Back at the bar like) Fuck it bartender you can give me one more |
See, BIG done told you |
Im the hottest bitch on the planet |
Biggest sex symbol, since Janet |
Theres a Nolte bandit |
Laying in the cut like a bandage |
Come through Fulton St. in the vanquish |
Doing them damage |
And if you dont understand it Then let me give it to you in spanish |
Soy la senorita mas Linda del barrios y lo es abo tu eres despacio |
Still over in Brazil, Sipping Mescotto |
You must of forgot though |
So Imma’take you back to the block yo Put you on to how we rock yo Some are boosting |
12-year olds prostituting |
Hit-men hired for execution, Theres no solution |
Niggaz still piss in the hallways |
Fiends get high on em’all day |
The youth them bang at the cops off the roof |
If you dont know my town is the truth |
Welcome to Brooklyn |
Now put your lighters up (New Jersey) |
Put your lighters up (Boston) |
Put your lighters up (B-More) |
Keep putting your lighters up (Miami) |
Put your lighters up (Puerto Rico) |
Put your lighters up (Kingston, Jamaica) |
Keep putting them lighters up No matter where you from, Put your lighters up |
