There's nothin' new under the sun It's never what you do but how it's done What you base your happiness Around material women And large paper that means you inferior Not major No idea's original There's nothin' new under the sun It's never what you do but how it's done What you base your happiness Around material women And large paper that means you inferior Not major Look inside my mind you'll find
Where bodies are buried First look past the hotties who dimes Go to the center enter with caution Past the braincell graveyard
Where ****'s responsible for memory loss
Let's witness the horrific The stench'll make you nauseous See what I seen every day I live with this torture Lightin' Up to stay high like 24 hours Sleep with my wash with my in the shower
My tongue is power It thrills women kills demons Long as I'm still breathin' I'm still winnin' I'll teach 'em The hood converted from trey bags to 20's a girl
Everybody had money every summer was real ill Four-finger rings dealers No half steppin' with flat tops when Rakim reigned Radios on card tables Benetton the Gods buildin' Ask for today's mathematics we Allah's children
And this was goin' on in every New York ghetto Kids listened five percenters said it's pork and Jell-o We coincide we in the same life Maybe a time difference On a different coast But we share the same sunlight Your part of the world Might be like colors and gangs While on my side brothers'll for different things But it all revolve around fame and shorties Stuck for your bling Stripped for your chain the same story From Czechoslovakia to Texas metropolis Them treacherous rocksters in the Mexican mafias Be scrappin' with tats on they back violent wars Nothin' less than a lethal injection if ever caught Courtrooms eagles and flags American style While in our world The ghetto stays incredibly foul Watchin' for paint chips Don't want no led in yo' child But them gangstas put lead In yo' child the bezzy be out The chain be like a hundred K Shinin' since Roxanne Shante' made 'Runaway' that's been a minute Genesis is deep my features are that of a God It's not a facade it's a fact These rappers wanna be Nas My Exodus doesn't exist I'll never leave the streets it's all in my mind Even with sleep I'm duckin' in my dreams
Sirens wide awake why'd I think it would change Can't hide when you famous Or even try to do the same things like Somebody's always watchin' my life Before I walk out the door I size up every option Eyes cut every direction It's like God or guns Which is better protection
Can't decide that's a hard one I mean they wanna see me in prison The chains bamboozled Headline readin' 'Rapper Slain From a Man'
