industry shady it need to be taken over
label owners hate me im raisin the status quo up
im overchargin niggaz for what they did to the cold crush
pay us like you owe us for all the years that you hold us
we can talk but money talks so talk mo bucks
yeah
hove is back life stories told through rap
niggaz actin like i sold you crack
like i told you sell drugsno
hove did that so hopefully you wont have to go through that
i was raised in the projects roaches and rats
smokers out back sellin they mamas sofa
lookouts on the corner focused on the ave
ladies in the window focused on the kinfolk
me under a lamp post why i got my hand closed
cracks in my palm watchin the long arm o the law
so you know i seen it all before
i seen hoop dreams deflate like a true fiends weight
to try and to fail the two things i hate
succeed in this rap game the two things is great
