[Intro]
Ha, ha, ha, whatcha laughin at?
[Verse 1: Megaman]
Megaman up first and he won't second no shit
I ain't got the time to smoke this, hold this
Yo G, roll by in a blacked out TT, Megaman carry two gats easy
Seeing stars, and a mister wanna jack me
Jack me say come step to me, the last
Thing that you saw was icy, bitch
Say nigga wanna see Mega get rich
But niggas don't really want Mega to be rich
Say nigga wanna see Mega get rich
But niggas don't really want Mega to be rich
[Verse 2: Asher D]
Asher D's never fading
Strugglin' stay strong 'til I'm bathin'
The A to the D's never phasing
I run a drum of enemies if you're racing (chasing)
So Solid are amazing
And Guccis we're bound to be lacing
Addicted to this life that we're tastin'
You blame me for the life you been wasting
You're hating, but there's money to be making
Actor, MC and now I'm rakin'
Smoking mad G's like a Jamaican
So when you're looking at me you start takin', creating
[Verse 3: Mac]
Thug of the family, who could I be?
M with the A to the C that's me
Thug of the family, who could I be?
M with the A to the C that's me
M - A - C still thuggin
Shot Benz in a rave when I'm clubbin
Ladies come around and they buggin
Make g's like if I was robbin
Player haters they are
Watching and they're plottin and they're watchin my stocks
Watching and they're plottin and they're watchin my stops
Watching and they're plottin and they're watchin my crops
Never gonna stop
Never gonna stop
[Hook: Kaish]

Every lyric I do, every lyric I say
Every lyric I rock, every lyric I play
Every lyric I make, every lyric I break
There's always a snake when I get in my gate
Way... through the tunnel
21 seconds and you're in trouble
You better move on the double
When I double my cash
When I double my dough
21 seconds Harvey's gonna flow
And if I step on my toe
We're still gonna go
When I'm on a high, when I'm on a low
When I'm on a break, when I'm on a roll
Hype it up (Oh, oh no)
[Verse 8: Romeo]
Turn up the bassline
I got 21 seconds to chat this rhyme in time
First of all I'm gonna big up da ladies
Lookin' slender n' fine... mmm mine
Don't gimme no deadline
Gimme some more time
Gimme 29... seconds to chat this rhyme
Other MC's wait in line
How old am I? 21
I got 21 seconds den my vocals done
2 multiplied by 10 plus 1
