  • 作词 : Batson, Jones
    作曲 : N. JONES/M. BATSON
    I gotta lay down the block,

    when the block is hot

    I gotta use my imagination,

    to change the situation

    I gotta lay down the block,

    when the block is hot

    I gotta use my imagination,

    to change the situation
    Yea, Feds feast on street dons,
    look at their teeth showin'
    Salivatin' at the mouth,
    South to East Orange
    Keep pourin' that liquor,
    but ***** don't sleep on it
    You'll be givin' up your Jesus piece
    to your peeps to pawn it
    For legal fees in the penal dorm
    Screamin' on the horn with 'bout
    thirty years on your conscience
    I'm watchin' brothers disappear,

    it's appallin'
    Some dudes had just only a year of ballin'
    Counter-intelligence

    found a strange evidence
    (When the block is hot)
    Still we behind the wheel with heat on us,
    hangin' with predicates
    Position we placed in caves in,
    so they got us caged in
    Ways spinnin' like Mike Bivens
    from New Edition aging
    I got families I'm feeding '
    cause my mans is bleeding
    Every five seconds look in all directions
    I come through prepared;
    I give 'em a call
    I'm close, bring them guns downstairs
    I gotta lay down the block,

    when the block is hot

    I gotta use my imagination,
    to change the situation

    I gotta lay down the block,

    when the block is hot (hold it down)
    I gotta use my imagination,

    to change the situation
    Uh, uh, it's beef week,
    Monday, murder
    Two ****** dead, Tuesday
    Wednesday and Thursday is hearse-day
    Friday, somebody-gotta-die-day
    Saturday, put the gat away
    Chillin' wit your chick and a bag of haze
    Wonderin' how it's all gon' end
    and what type of way
    'Cause Sunday back to gunplay
    Mo' **** start over nothin'

    And get finished quick 'cause
    the art of repercussion

    Yeah, I seen it, a G' going out indecent
    Takin' a plea agreement,
    thinkin' he secret
    Escape the crime scene,
    now you live straight like 9:15
    Then one-time intervene
    My man ain't like me sayin'
    I don't care if I die
    But the SIG Sauer on me now
    I'm scared to die
    You thinkin' the one
    I send to clap you be a shorty
    But he old school, holdin' a .38,
    he in his forties
    I gotta lay down the block,

    when the block is hot

    I gotta use my imagination,

    to change the situation

    I gotta lay down the block,

    when the block is hot

    I gotta use my imagination,

    to change the situation

    (I gotta...) Anytime brothers
    can't get jobs, then they rob
    A man rather die than
    live on his knees and starve
    Cops steady askin' your man what happened
    First he tell then he stop,
    like he not really rattin'
    Guess he not really
    in that casket from a sawed-off

    Listen,
    peep game from the brain of an all-star
    The rain hurt ****** bones who been shot
    Metal pins in their leg,
    they walk with a limp-hop
    The streets lie,
    so you better be cautious
    Your man'll fry you plus,
    everybody talkin'

    A vet, a General,
    don't step where I walked in
    Make your own path,
    be a legend in your skin
    Make your own cash,
    don't stress what I'm forcin'
    Don't expect more
    when you put in less work than all them

    Queensbridge projects has taught him,
    and that's for life
    You heard me right, I got the block

    When the block is hot

    (When the block is hot)

    I gotta use my imagination,

    to change the situation

    I gotta hold down the block,

    when the block is hot

    I gotta use my imagination,

    to change the situation

    I gotta hold down the block,

    when the block is hot

    I gotta use my imagination,
