| This is a place where opportunities few
|
| And niggas feud for land they’ll never own
|
| Where they raise hell and waste shells
|
| And duck baby mamas but rarely escape jail
|
| This is the trap… the trap.
|
| Death on my opposition, no
|
| Them watchin' me blow is more than evening the score
|
| And my team has a flow, ambition see the results
|
| And to get to my spirit seeing twitpics of them diplomas, word
|
| Cannot stress it, through God blessings we made it out
|
| For the have-nots that have a knot to have knots
|
| Hats off, we been working our ass off
|
| And we all-stars that made the squad with the cap off
|
| Steinbrenner, designed to make your dynasty weary
|
| Sometimes I’m a dick, but you niggas placenta
|
| And that’s the problem, it’s a problem, don’t dap me my nigga
|
| Just tap me my nigga, then get at me my nigga
|
| Man fuck a dappin' you rappers should get back off the fingers
|
| Trust in God and you golden, trust in rap and you empty
|
| Bust a mac and you gangster, that’s how them youngins livin'
|
| Shout out that Georgetown Press they still trappin' the district
|
| Blessings we made it out, blessings we made it out
|
| They still trappin' the district
|
| Trust in God and you golden, trust in rap and you empty
|
| Blessings we made it out, blessings we made it out
|
| Shout out that Georgetown Press they still trappin' the district
|
| Lil nigga, but I’m Patrick Ewing on these blocks
|
| My mac cold like Dikembe nigga, who need Glocks
|
| These crooked cops keep tryin' steal the ball from me
|
| But 'Le like Kevin Braswell with the rock
|
| 600 plus assists, plus this I must’nt miss
|
| Hard work it comes with this? |
| That’s why I fuck with this
|
| G set the fuckin' pick, I went straight to the hole
|
| Went to college a day, dropped out went straight for my goals
|
| Now it’s dough in my mattress, my bitch look like an actress
|
| Cuz I studied the defense, and I stayed after practice
|
| On my way to the league, only limit the sky
|
| Still I show up to practice, I can’t end up A. I
|
| Pay attention or miss it
|
| Shout out to Georgetown but I won’t get trapped in the District, nah
|
| Lightshow
|
| Leader of the people who ain’t tryna be led
|
| But I’mma get us all back if I can smile all year
|
| I seen bums happy as anyone
|
| Millionaires set for bread
|
| Some be livin' for crumbs
|
| Motherfuckers don’t fuck with us I still be showin' love
|
| Cause if I was local and they was on it I’d be naah
|
| Don’t trip off what a bitch say, shovel on a good day
|
| All my youngins put up numbers just like Bubbachuck in kente
|
| When we can’t hit the league we let the streets mislead and dictate
|
| And there is no I in team, but can you read the eye on Vic’s Page
|
| Otto Porter with all the water servin' the corners
|
| Rayful callin' up 'Zo Mourning before the tourney
|
| Servin' drugs, some us don’t make it out here
|
| My niggas had some plugs, I gave 'em a better outlet
|
| There’s a difference in words: hustle and trappin'
|
| See hustlers find a way out, while the latter can’t climb up out it
|
| The trap
|
| Georgetown coach John Thompson made a personal appeal to Edmond to stay away
|
| from his players. |
| He built this team into a national power, and now the specter
|
| of a D.C. drug dealer in the age of crack, you know, well, that could have
|
| destroyed everything |
