Intro: Sheek Louch:
Ha, this shit knockin'!
Mega what up nigga? Woo!
It's that fly shit right here...
Sheek Louch, I got you, God
Don Gorilla shit, D-Block (D-BLOCK!), ayo
Verse 1: Sheek Louch:
We was baggin' up cracks when niggas was watchin' Betamax (Uhuh)
Shorty head on my lap, smokin' tryna relax (Aha!)
Way before the tracks and all the Bad Boy plaques
Some niggas passed away, couple homies in a max (Damn)
Trump, I been knew he was fuckin' with us blacks (Uhuh)
Pull up on 5th Ave. and let a fuck up sacks (Damn, nigga)
Brown licker in the crystal glass
50,000 on my wrist my little shooter pull that pistol fast (Shoot outside)
Razor cuts wrapped around a nigga face and shit (Hold up!)
Staples, ten gone ain't taste the shit (Woo!)
For the fame these IG rappers chasin' it
I came in though, nigga ask Ma$e and shit (Uhuh)
I'vе seen the quality of Hip Hop drop (For real)
You ain't evеn gotta rap just mumble somethin', and you gon' pop (So sick)
Silverback Gorilla, I put one in yo' hat
From Yonkers to Queens, nigga, what's fuckin' wit' that?
Chorus: Cormega x2:
We were taught never sleep yet we followed our dreams
Failure ain't a option indeed
Real recognize real, we're did hard in the street
Say less, listen more, that's how you succeed
Verse 2: Cormega:
Up early acceptin' the blessin' of life
My adjustment from streets to makin' records is repression
From adolescence to a man predestined to be tested
He channeled out aggression in a manner that's poetic
For all my peoples sentenced behind the wall stressin'
Moral and discretions hopin' your cores accepted
The belly of the beast says it's deep fall from Heaven
Freeze [?] Lord I will breathe laws forever
Love is blind I see false affection
As a character floor I detour deception
Art imitates like these bars should mirror
Something great, MEGA the definition apparent
The worst days are measures of strength being tested
Temptations of weakness with faith it's a present
Pain and regret can't be greater than the pleasure
Success at anyone's expenses of failure
Chorus: Cormega x2
