X Gon’ Give It to Ya Lyrics

[Intro]
Arf-arf
Yeah, uh, yeah (Grr), yeah, uh (Grr)
Yeah, don't get it twisted
This rap shit is mine, motherfucker
It's not a fuckin' game
Fuck what you heard (Grr)
It's what you hearin' (It's what you hearin')
It's what you hearin' (Listen)
It's what you hearin' (Listen)
It's what you hearin' (Listen)

[Verse 1]
X gon' give it to ya (What?)
Fuck waitin' for you to get it on your own, X gon' deliver to ya (Uh)
Knock-knock, open up the door, it's real
With the non-stop pop-pop from stainless steel
Go hard, gettin' busy with it (Ooh)
But I got such a good heart that I'll make a motherfucker wonder if he did it (Yeah)
Damn right, and I'll do it again (Yeah)
'Cause I am light so I gots to win (Uh, uh, uh)
Break bread with the enemy (What?)
No matter how many cats I break bread with, I'll break who you sendin' me (Yeah)
You motherfuckers never wanted nothin' but your life saved (Uh)
Bitch, and that's on a light day (Give up)
I'm gettin' down (Down) like a nigga said "Freeze" (Uh)
But won't be the one endin' up on his knees
Bitch please, (Come on) if the only thing you cats did
Was came out to play, stay out my way, motherfucker

[Chorus]
First, we gonna rock, then we gonna roll
Then we let it pop, go, let it go (What)
X gon' give it to ya (Uh), he gon' give it to ya
X gon' give it to ya (Uh), he gon' give it to ya
First, we gonna rock, then we gonna roll
Then we let it pop, go, let it go
X gon' give it to ya (Uh), he gon' give it to ya
X gon' give it to ya (Uh), he gon' give it to ya

[Verse 2]
They ain't never gave nothin' to me (Yeah)
But every time I turn around cats got they hands out wantin' somethin' from me (Uh-huh)
I ain't got it, so you can't get it (Yeah)
Let's leave it at that 'cause I ain't with it (Yeah)
Hit it with full strength (What?)
I'm a jail nigga, so I face the world like it's Earl in the bullpen
You against me, me against you (Uh, uh, uh, uh)
Whatever, whenever, nigga, fuck you gon' do?
I'm a wolf in sheep's clothin' (What?)
Only nigga that you know who can chill, come back and get the streets open
I've been doin' this for nineteen years (What?)
Niggas wanna fight me? Fight these tears (What?)
I put in work and it's all for the kids (Uh)
But these cats done forgot what work is (Uh-huh)
They don't know who we be, lookin'
But they don't know who they see, nigga

[Chorus]
First, we gonna rock, then we gonna roll
Then we let it pop, go, let it go (What)
X gon' give it to ya (Uh), he gon' give it to ya
X gon' give it to ya (Uh), he gon' give it to ya (Come on)
First, we gonna rock, then we gonna roll
Then we let it pop, go, let it go (Come on)
X gon' give it to ya (Uh), he gon' give it to ya
X gon' give it to ya (Uh), he gon' give it to ya

[Verse 3]
Ayo, where my niggas at?
I know I got 'em down in the streets, give 'em love and they give it back (Ooh)
Talk too much for too long (What?)
Don't give up, you're too strong (What?)
Love to the wild, wild hunnids (Yeah)
Shout out to niggas that done it (Come on)
And it ain't even about the dough (Uh, uh, uh)
It's about gettin' down for what you stand for, yo, for real

[Chorus]
First, we gonna rock, then we gonna roll
Then we let it pop, go, let it go (Come on)
X gon' give it to ya (Uh), he gon' give it to ya
X gon' give it to ya (Uh), he gon' give it to ya (Come on)
First, we gonna rock, then we gonna roll
Then we let it pop, go, let it go (Come on)
X gon' give it to ya (Uh), he gon' give it to ya
X gon' give it to ya (Uh), he gon' give it to ya (Come on)
First, we gonna rock, then we gonna roll
Then we let it pop, go, let it go (Come on)
X gon' give it to ya (Uh), he gon' give it to ya
