They say this is a big rich town I just come from the poor West part Bright lights city life I gotta make it This is where it goes down I just happen to come up hard Legal or illegal baby I gotta make it I never took a straight path nowhere
Life's full of twist and turns Bumps and bruises I lived I learned I'm from that city full of yellow cabs and skyscrapers
It's hard to get a start in These parts without paper Homie I grew up in hell A block away from heaven
That corner every 15 minutes it move a seven Pure snow bag it then watch it go Occupational options guess I'm blowing some hoes Shoot the bullet the strap Learn to rap or to jack **** it man In the mean time go ahead and pump a pack This my regal royal flow My James Bond bounce That 007 that 62 on my count I'm a undercover liar I lie under the covers Look a ***** in the eyes and tell her ''baby I love it'' You're my inspiration you're my motivation You're the reason that I'm moving with no hesitation They say this is a big rich town
I just come from the poor West part Bright lights city life I gotta make it This is where it goes down I just happen to come up hard Legal or illegal baby I gotta make it I gotta hustle through the hustle And bust while I make a move Manuever around the rats and wolves I'm from the school Of hard knocks shots pop bodies drop Graveyard pick a block Cause ****** want your spots I'm trying to stack **** then I go legit Hollow tip stuff 'em in a clip case ****** trip My ******* endeavours give me corporate ties I'm supposed to lose Watch me win against the odds All I got is my word Balls and my instinct I'm trying to make it We already made it my friends think We already on top I got a bigger plan No more controlled substances or hand to hand White collar visions game changing mission Big risks big wins equal bigger living Perfect position watch me transition From caterpillar to butterfly in the sky They say this is a big rich town
