| Police stay infiltrating
|
| But us black folks really infiltrating our damn self you know what I’m saying?
|
| So we just gotta roll with the punches
|
| And be prepared for anything come along our way, you know?
|
| I had it hard I remember it all, mane
|
| No need to purp, I had to work a proper plan
|
| Because my mama, she was workin' and cookin' and doin' it all
|
| Washin' my cloths, cleaning my nose, scrubbin' the floor, scrubbing the walls
|
| She said «whatever you do with your life, just do it properly
|
| And maybe one day you own your own business and buy some property»
|
| My momma schooled me with the game oh yes she laced me
|
| So all them sheisty suckers up in the town, they couldn’t fade me
|
| Still can’t, I clock bank, I’m potent like a spliff
|
| You know why? |
| Because the good lord gave me the gift
|
| I don’t know what you can do
|
| (He gave me the gift to spit, the gift to keep the crowd rowdy)
|
| Whatever it is make sure it’s good for you
|
| (I'm tryna control my scene, it’s me and my friend in the room cloudy)
|
| A butcher, a baker, a candlestickmaker
|
| (He gave me the gift to spit, the gift to keep the crowd rowdy)
|
| Whatever

|
| (He gave me the gift to spit, the gift to keep the crowd rowdy)
|
| A butcher, a baker, a candlestickmaker
|
| (I'm tryna control my scene, it’s me and my friend in the room cloudy)
|
| You know the rhyme
|
| How would I rap, how would I rhyme?
|
| How would I get me some peace of mind?
|
| I’m thanking the lord, I’m having a
|
| For pulling this shit that I pulled before
|
| Laughing and gaffing at criminal minded
|
| Federal agents follow me 24/7, I pop my spot but they can’t find it
|
| And they’re so mad cause I’m shaking em, breaking em, taking em, yes I’m swift
|
| You know why? |
| Because the good lord gave me the gift
|

|
| You know the rhyme
|
| Chilling in home like a zone, reminding myself of Al Capone
|
| Cause soon as some drama comes up in my face, I’m telling you nigga it’s on
|
| And the lad the young ones
|
| Slanging and banging and hanging out on the turf, don’t be the sprung one,
|
| the dumb one
|
| Who follow the leader? |
| You be the leader so we can achieve what goal be
|
| Cause I tell you my brother there’s nothing as good as keeping your ass off
|
| parole
|
| You gotta do what you got’s to do, you gotta hustle
|
| Just remember the circumstances brother, life is just like a puzzle
|
| I’m dropping something that you can relax your mind to
|
| It ain’t no ratatatat, you go with the gat, I roll with the Ragtop crew
|
| Just a gang of the riggidy rap so we can lift up out of the five-o face
|
| And tell them that the Good Lord gave me the gift
|
| I don’t know what you can do
|
| (He gave me the gift to spit, the gift to keep the crowd rowdy)
|
| Whatever it is make sure it’s good for you

|
| The gift, the gift to sang
|
| To do my thing whenever I want
|
| To sing I’m sorry, make things go right
|
| Oh yeah, yeah yeah yeah
|
| (He gave me the gift to spit, the gift to keep the crowd rowdy)
|
| Listen to this
|
| He gave me the voice to sang
|
