Hey, Uh, What You Say Come On

Some people need to watch what they say
Watch what you’re saying
Someone’s gonna hear exactly what you said
Soon you’ll be paying in the dead of night
They’ll be nowhere to run while you were laying
Laying for the doom that’s coming to a head, no kind of praying
Is gonna save us from the past that will surely come
Warning, rappers be like boring they’re sleeping
It’s deep man, so peep in closely when I’m speaking
Weaklings, it’s obvious you can’t like up to
Your petty pointless words, yet and still you love to
Run off your jibs, now there come a time for judgment
Punishment, what if we take away your ornaments
And strip you down to the raw deal then I’d reveal the evidence
'Cause you don’t really represent
Watch what you’re saying
Someone’s gonna hear exactly what you said
Soon you’ll be paying in the dead of night
They’ll be nowhere to run while you were laying
Laying for the doom that’s coming to a head, no kind of praying
Is gonna save us from the past that will surely come
Listen here, I’m getting tired of you shooting lip
You better tighten up or you will really slip up
And say something that you mean to do
Turn around and it’ll be on you
To save yourself from your call and blunder
And bury your like the world it’s under
And like a fool you’ll sit and wonder
What, who do you wanna know?
Wish no water
No magic spell can save you from your self made hell
You’ve made your bed and you know darn well
You got a lay it in the and there’s no magic potion
To save you from the wheels you’ve set in motion
The stone is cut, the die is cast, what were you thinking?
Watch what you’re saying
Someone’s gonna hear exactly what you said
Soon you’ll be paying in the dead of night
They’ll be nowhere to run while you were laying
Laying for the doom that’s coming to a head, no kind of praying
Is gonna save us from the past that will surely come
I can’t understand it, they should ban it, can it?
Too much weak talk and not enough real hip-hop
I sense a purpose is filling me to display credibility
And show responsibility, willingly
I’ll take on any Johnny Dangerous
Pull his file, for he knows, he cannot hang with this
The illest king, I smack the jokers
No hocus pocus, a real MC when I kick vocals
Watch what you’re saying
Someone’s gonna hear exactly what you said
Soon you’ll be paying in the dead of night
They’ll be nowhere to run while you were laying
Laying for the doom that’s coming to a head, no kind of praying
Is gonna save us from the past that will surely come
