Brooklyn |
I got the intro along with the cash flow |
Make all the bad boys seem like nymphos |
Yeah, I’m hard, I get sexy like Veronica |
I use sex as an instrument like the philharmonica |
No, I ain’t tall, but I’m small and I’m slender |
Ask him who’s been in, shit is like tender |
If he didn’t like it, then return to sender |
He didn’t do that, it’s too fat, he remembers |
Never ever have I ever said I was good lookin |
Just one bad-ass bitch from Brooklyn |
Not here to steal your loot, your coat, your rocks |
Makin niggas drop whenever we hit the block |
They hear 'Brooklyn', and we up to no good |
Well, here we come, so there goes your neighborhood |
Timbos scuffed up, sess bein puffed up |
Mess with the wrong one, kid, you get ruffed up |
Peace to my people in |
(Brooklyn, Brooklyn, Brooklyn…) |
(You know the place) |
I got the rhythm that’ll rip up shows |
Blow down foes, they kill at will to get a taste of my flow |
Vocally I rock locally and worldwide |
Those that got bad wish they woulda never tried |
Cause when you come from where I come from |
You gotta be tough |
Cause niggas’ll call your bluff quick enough |
Cause if your hood is like my hood, you gotta think quick |
Shit stink, niggas are slick, have you turnin tricks |
I gotta give it up to Mr. Cool J |
For givin up the props to the girls around the way |
It ain’t safe after dark to throw a jam in the park |
If you wanna get naughty, bring your forty to the arc |
Cause we get down when it comes to a jam |
Just watch your backpocket, keep a eye on the man |
If your town is like my town, you don’t wanna mess around |
Wind up gettin bagged up, beat down |
Peace to my people in |
(Brooklyn, Brooklyn, Brooklyn…) |
(You know the place) |
Everyhwere that I step they know my rep |
Cause I’m sayin and doin ill shit they won’t forget |
Breakin down doors, although I never break laws |
Come to a town that’s yours, and I be rippin the whole tour |
Comin hard for your section, slow up |
Live in the flesh and about to blow up |
So yo, come down, and then get the fuck up |
Looks are hooked, you lucked up, you’re booked |
You gotta be hard, cause I ain’t with softies |
Hit, then you miss, gotta get offa this |
So come with your game, cause you can’t be lame |
As soon as you walk, I’m forgettin your name |
As long as you know all that enter are equal |
Straight from the Lyte I send peace to my people |
(Yeah) |
Peace to my people |
(Yeah) |
Peace to my people |
Peace to my people on the east coast |
Peace to my people on the west |
Peace to the people up north |
Peace to the people down south |
Peace to the people in Brooklyn |
Peace to the people in the Bronx |
Peace to my people in Compton |
Peace to my people goin uptown |
Peace to my people in Detroit |
Peace to my people in Houston |
Peace to my people in Philly |
Peace to my people in Boston |
Peace to my people in Jersey |
Peace to my people in Georgia |
Peace to my people in Philly |
Peace to my people in Richmond |
Peace to my people in Cali |
Peace to my people in Queens |
Peace to my people goin uptown |
Peace to my people in the islands |
Peace to my people on the beach |
Peace to my people in Miami |
Peace to my people |
I send peace to my people |
(You know the place) |
(Brooklyn, Brooklyn, Brooklyn…) |
