| South Philly, North Side
|
| Oakland, Texas
|
| Georgia, Black People
|
| Yo, Worldwide, Sup my nigga
|
| You know what I’m saying
|
| Dumb and blind…
|
| They say a record ain’t nothing if it’s not touching
|
| Gripping, draw you in closer make you want to listen to it And if you real ill at making music
|
| Then lesson’ll feel like you livin’through it That’s how my nigga do it
|
| I met Slacks back in like '91 rapping
|
| We went to Millersville to get away from gun clappin'
|
| It ain’t last
|
| I be in class dreaming 'bout
|
| 50,000 fans up in the stands screaming out
|
| Encore, yo I’m headed back to Philly
|
| Nigga you rollin’with me?
|
| I’m trying to get busy
|
| We walk dogs that was off the chain
|
| Lot of times at the show people hardly came
|
| I just took it in stride as part of the game
|
| But inside people down with me started to change
|
| It was a couple things
|
| Lil'???, lil’pills
|
| Instead of driving out on the road you rather chill
|
| I know the way the pleasure feel
|
| I’m not judging
|
| But still I’m on a mission, yo I’m not buggin'
|
| I got fam that won’t stop druggin'
|
| They can’t sleep
|
| They can’t stick to one subject, they can’t eat
|
| Is people steady comin’at me out in the streets
|
| Like Riq yo wat up with your peeps
|
| it gets deep nigga
|
| Yo, you need to walk straight, master your high
|
| Son you missin’out on was passing you by I done seen the streets suck a lot of cats dry
|
| But not you and I my nigga
|
| We got to get
|
| Come on, over over the water
|
| Come on, over over the water
|
| Water, Water…
|
| Yo, we done made too many meals
|
| A couple of deals
|
| We done share clothes and wills
|
| Killed mics and reels
|
| We done rock
|
| Shows abroad, and slept on floors
|
| Trying to figga what the fuck we gettin’slept on for
|
| Oh why we walking with the rep up for
|
| Waited by the cavity law
|
| You know it if you came up poor my nigga
|
| Picture a bus up north
|
| You know we made of everything outlaws are made of
|
| I’m far from a hater
|
| And I don’t say I love you 'cause the way I feel is greater
|
| In Illa you a poet son
|
| You a ball creator
|
| And this will probably dawn on you later
|
| Is in you nature, letters all up in the wall like they made of paper
|
| You got to find out where you talent take you
|
| You might fuck around, finally make it And that’s real but yo Yo, I want you all to understand I come from South Philly
|
| And when I walk the street is like a pharmacy
|
| They got all type of shit
|
| Anybody could get
|
| It goes from H to Ex
|
| To lucy ciggarette
|
| For my ghetto legend
|
| Known from Lil’shyst running
|
| Cop codeine by the courts and keep comin'
|
| Dummy, just embracing the dope like it’s a woman
|
| You burnin’both sides of the rope and keep pullin'
|
| Tuggin', in between Islam and straight tuggin'
|
| Laying everyday around the way and doin’nothin'
|
| See’em looking shaking their head and start shruggin'
|
| If they don’t have a man like mine, they got a cousin
|
| Hey yo you better be a true friend to 'em
|
| Before the shit put an end to 'em
|
| Or give a pen to 'em
|
| Or lock’em up in the studio with a mic
|
| 'Cause on the real it might save his life
|
| Keep tellin’em |
