[Intro: Ill Conscious]
I need you more (Uh)
Than all the wealth I could store (Yeah)
Yeah, yeah, straight up
Uh (Yeah), ayo, this shit is consistent (So consistent)
Uh, yeah
Ayo, the wickedness indifferent
Uh, yo, word up
[Verse 1: Ill Conscious]
I grind tenacious as a fugitive at this pursuit of [?]
But still providin' the science like immunogenetics
Niggas'll flex with TECs, disrespectin' communo-ethics
For future message, these niggas rap with a pseudo elegance
We move like presidents with mob ties (Word)
Machetes and cartridges, the deadliest arsonists
Y'all niggas is bringin' the pettiest larcenists (Come on)
These fake thugs is feelin' entitled, the heaviest narcissists
Barreta be sparkin' leavin' your legs as sausages (Word is bond)
In the hood, [?] John Rockefeller
Unc' is playin' lottery horses hollerin' [?]
Ayo, tuck your pride with your necklace
We feel the pressure from the private sector (Yeah)
They still arrest us for these crime endeavors (Word)
Word up, to no surprise I puff the lye as loud as amplifiers
This yellow hairy [?] dandelions
Blow a L, these rap niggas should know us well
We who they hate on, the rap Avon and Stringer Bell
[Verse 2: Jay Royale]
Ayo, this just a story of the insubordinate project hallway loiterer
Taught the voyage from a boy to warrior
The streets'll shut your mouth but open your corneas
'Cause ain't no conversations with coroners
It's hostile, they whyle out and niggas got loud out
Chasin' back like the Rothschilds and they'll prey on the [?]
A shorty though, you know how the story go
Flipped it like Bishop and kept the .38 and the .40 bellows
Torchin' my clothes, I was sportin' Girbauds
With drug money, tryna acquire that corporate dough
Police will walk upon me whisperin' in they walkie-talkies
But I was young, swiggin' on a dark Bacardi
Was into different things, survivin' off fries and chicken wings
Hunger pains had me gettin' thinnin' to thicker things
I switched the game up, niggas biggin' my name up
Be flickin' pictures with bitches 'cause how we came up
Best blow a L, rap niggas should know us well
We who they hate, the rap Avon and Stringer Bell
