作词 : DJ Premier, Guru Stick up kids is out to tax (x2) And this is how the story goes Brothers are amused by others brother's reps But the thing they know best is where the gun is kept 'Cause in the night, you'll feel fright And at the sight of a 4-5th, I guess you just might Wanna do a da or two 'Cause they could maybe bust you for self or wit a crew No matter is you or your brother's a star He could pop you in and jet without a getaway car And some might say that he's a dummy But he's sticking you and taking all of your money It's a daily operation He might be loose in the park or lurking at the train station Mad brothers know his name So he thinks he got a little fame From the stick-up game And while we're blaming society He's at a party with his man They got their eye on the gold chain That the next man's wearing It looks big but they ain't staring Just thinking of a way and when to get the brother They'll be long gone before the kid recovers And back around the way, he'll have the chain on his neck Claimin' respect, Just to get a rep Ten brothers in a circle Had the kid trapped, the one wit the hood, he said, "We'll hurt you" If you don't run out your dues and pay Give up the Rolex watch or you won't see another day See, they were on the attack And one said, "Yo, you wanna make this to a homicide rap? Make it fast so we can be on our way Kick in the rings and everything, ok?" The kid was nervous and flinching And little shorty with the 3-8, yo, he was inchin Closer and closer, put the gun to his head Shorty was down to catch a body instead Money was scared so he panicked Took off his link and his rings and ran frantic But shorty said, "Now" pulled the trigger and stepped It was nothing, he did it just to get a rep The rep goes bigger and now hes known for his trigger finger Rolling with troops of the sons like a gangster figure Hes near the peak of his crazy career His posse's a nightmare macking jewls and some crazy gear but as we know these things do come back and shortys now peeping others that are scheming the kind of act Cuz the kid that got shot didnt perish so He pulls up in a jeep with tinted window Too late shorty was caught in the mix His time ran out his number came up and thats it Ya know the rest so dont front the plan has been upset Some brothers gotta go out, just to get a rep
