Uhh... | |
Uhh, yeah | |
Won't stop niggaz | |
"Somehow the rap game remind me of the crack game" -- | |
Jigga! Feel me | |
People, told ya mother****ers, told ya | |
"See that rap shit is really just like sellin smoke" -- | |
Uhh, Roc-a-Fella | |
Geyeah | |
We treat this rap shit just like, handlin weight | |
What they want we give it to em, what they abandon we take | |
Hit a rapper with consignment, let him know it's at stake | |
Put his ass in the studio, let him cook up a cake | |
When it's hot, get on my money spot in every state | |
Like the wiz in Camelot, the mom-and-pop's is the gate | |
But first we scope shit, advertise in every area | |
Let the fiends know hey, we got some dope shit | |
Gon' need a middle man, so we look to radio | |
Let em test the product, give em a promo show | |
Just a breeze, not enough to catch a real vibe | |
Then we drop a maxi single and charge em two for five | |
Ain't tryin to, kill em at first just, buildin clientele | |
So when the album drops the first weeks it's on sale | |
But when demand grows it's time to expand yo | |
You don't want no garbage papi it's ten grand per blow, fo' sho' | |
"Somehow the rap game reminds me of the crack game" -- | |
"See that rap shit is really just like sellin smoke" -- | |
Ge-ge-geyeah | |
I got that uncut raw to make a fiend's body jerk | |
Got your whole block now, pumpin my work | |
My CD's is like keys for you Willie's who | |
like to floss my cassette tapes in sixty-two's | |
And my singles like gems, you know the treys | |
Get you high for a while, but the, high don't stay | |
You need another fix, you better cop these last two bricks | |
Cause when this shit flip, I'ma get on some other shit | |
Never pitchin for a label, Jigga's the hook-up | |
You know my shit is fish scale, y'all niggaz is cook up | |
Just blow up, scream my name from Brooklyn to Da-kota | |
They know my shit stretch without the baking soda | |
Went from an eighth, to a quarter, to a half a key | |
Priority's work wasn't right so I switched factories | |
Now I'm the new nigga, who figured I'd get the game locked | |
Now watch how the prices of your cocaine drop, ha ha | |
