And lay down law from state to state" |

|
Check it out one time |
|
"We skate on suckers who perpetrate..." |
|
State to state, state to state |
|
[Dug Infinite] |
|
Now you got to tell me right now, is you man or meese? |
|
Is it man or beast, cause I plan to release |
|
The rent essentials, what's my name, confidential |
|
Na nah don't tell a soul but I sold my credentials |
|
Skipper off my team, everybody Top Gun |
|
Fortify the army, you can't beat us with a pop gun |
|
I stop one allowed with one thought on my mind |
|
Number ten is a hero take that one and make him zero |
|
That's law, word to Shapiro, Infinite's a colonel |
|
Now put that in your journal better yet in your eternal |
|
We heavy like a sledgehammer, with Know the Ledge grammar |
|
A bad mamma jamma all the way to Alabama |
|
Chi-Town, where we don't fight over coasts |
|
Cause the one that's in the middle is the one that see the most |
|
No time for that (word) we burn cells, no time for fat |
|
Let's say you like brain cells, we like state to state |

|
I, gain... ground |
|
Through my, pain... I came to bring it |
|
I brought it, to the forefront, work in the back |
|
Beauty Shop with the storefront |
|
Hyde Park beeper chicks with the hardcore cunts |
|
Didn't grow up ghetto where I'm tryin to get to is the same as you |
|
I ain't a player, but I'm in the game with you |
|
It's people in my city, that's just as lame as you |
|
Laid the framework now at the door my name work |
|
Free drinks attention paid, that's how the game work |
|
My flow became land, with mathematics |
|
I reign supreme like the Rainman |
|
Piss in unknown spots, givin dap with the same hand |
|
Raps overlaps and fill gaps in the rap industry |
|
For those whose tired of the same similies |
|
Hood stories, and songs to homies in penetentiaries |
|
Chances I take over breaks, to make shit interesting |
|
My city'll hold it down like bends in intersections |
|
Wanted to say Fuck the Police, I ain't had no protection |
|
Got the License to Ill, the real one got suspended in time |
|
Brother you'll see it ain't all about the promo |
|
_Source_ rating groupies and album photos |
|
A stick man with a message and a mag should be my logo |
|
Think I'll start sportin that instead of Polo, uhh... yo |

|
[No I.D.] |
|
... I decipher data |
|
Computer program the ill chatter |
|
Brain stimulize sparks everytime I reply |
|
My telescopic type topics smash your planet when I drop it |
|
Eighty-eight popped it and locked it |
|
Ninety-seven time to rock it, grown man status |
|
I'm pushin three-zero, I plan to be the baddest |
|
Like hip-hop hero in the game MC |
|
And makin sure that what you seein opens up your mind |
|
When I kick the hard to find, strategic, rhyme design |
|
Supersede your average line, intertwine when I combine |
|
Elevatin mankind, attract a scholar |
|
I convert poetry to dollars, a risk taker |
|
Money maker got no collar, this one nigga asked me |
|
Well who you be? I be a store ownin real-estate flippin MC |
|
Just makin beats on the side |
|
Another way to survive, I turn around artists |
|
Portfolio diversified, it's obvious |
|
I ain't your average hip-hopper |
|
To get up on the microphone and can't come proper |
|
I be the MC to keep the clubs cold jumpin |
|
I be the MC that's sayin somethin never nothin |
|
"... and lay down laws from state to state" |
