Still spitting

Up at Hot 97 with X and N.O.R.E (yeah)
And Pun was downstairs In the fucking parking lot parked outside in front of Hot 97 and was tryna to come up and they wouldn't let him up, Big Pun & Fat Joe
And they wanted to come up the night that X and
N.O.R.E and we all went in there to rhyme
And Flex invited us to the studio just separately
We didn't know that everybody's gonna be there
So, when we got there it looked like you doing cage matches and shit
And when we got there we figured it out 'cause everything was DJ's was in the room spinning and shit and X was in another room, N.O.R.E was in another room
And I was in another room and he all brought us into the area where we all on the mics at the same time
(Yeah) and so he start asking questions and then threw the beats on like like straight baited us, you know what I'm saying
But you would think about it because it's hip-hop
But nobody knew that that's what it was going to turn into, you understand (Yeah)
Pun was downstairs tryna get up there man like yo
That's on my film, man mmm
I love hip-hop in a way that, I look at it like a film you
Know
