[00:01.64] Yeah yeah,aiyyo black it's time (word?)
[00:06.45] (Word,it's time nigga?)
[00:08.79] Yeah,it's time man (aight nigga,begin)
[00:11.73] Yeah,straight out the fuckin dungeons of rap
[00:14.04] Where fake niggaz don't make it back
[00:18.15] I don't know how to start this shit,yo,now
[00:22.81] Rappers I monkey flip em with the funky rhythm I be kickin
[00:25.50] Musician,inflictin composition
[00:26.83] of pain I'm like Scarface sniffin cocaine
[00:30.01] Holdin a M-16,see with the pen I'm extreme,now
[00:33.11] Bulletholes left in my peepholes
[00:36.39] I'm suited up in street clothes
[00:37.86] Hand me a nine and I'll defeat foes
[00:40.37] Y'all know my steelo with or without the airplay
[00:42.92] I keep some E&J,sittin bent up in the stairway
[00:46.07] Or either on the corner bettin Grants with the celo champs
[00:48.36] Laughin at baseheads,tryin to sell some broken amps
[00:50.80] G-Packs get off quick,forever niggaz talk shit
[00:53.11] Remeniscing about the last time the Task Force flipped
[00:55.49] Niggaz be runnin through the block shootin
[00:58.39] Time to start the revolution,catch a body head for Houston
[01:01.74] Once they caught us off guard,the Mac-10was in the grass and
[01:05.55] I ran like a cheetah with thoughts of an assassin
[01:07.85] Pick the Mac up,told brothers,"Back up,"the Mac spit
[01:10.69] Lead was hittin niggaz one ran,I made him backflip
[01:13.13] Heard a few chicks scream my arm shook,couldn't look
[01:15.98] Gave another squeeze heard it click yo,my shit is stuck
[01:18.79] Try to cock it,it wouldn't shoot now I'm in danger
[01:21.50] Finally pulled it back and saw three bullets caught up in the chamber
[01:25.67] So now I'm jetting to the building lobby
[01:27.94] and it was filled with children probably couldn't see as high as I be
[01:30.90] (So whatchu sayin?)It's like the game ain't the same
[01:33.49] Got younger niggaz pullin the triggers bringing fame to they name
[01:35.95] and claim some corners,crews without guns are goners
[01:38.43] In broad daylight,stickup kids,they run up on us
[01:41.45] Fo'-fives and gauges,Macs in fact
[01:44.19] Same niggaz'll catch a back to back,snatchin yo'cracks in black
[01:47.93] There was a snitch on the block gettin niggaz knocked
[01:50.49] So hold your stash until the coke price drop
[01:53.21] I know this crackhead,who said she gotta smoke nice rock
[01:56.02] And if it's good she'll bring ya customers in measuring pots,but yo
[01:58.93] You gotta slide on a vacation
[02:00.86] Inside information keeps large niggaz erasin and they wives basin
[02:04.32] It drops deep as it does in my breath
[02:07.22] I never sleep,cause sleep is the cousin of death
[02:09.96] Beyond the walls of intelligence,life is defined
[02:12.45] I think of crime when I'm in a New York state of mind
[02:15.87] New York state of mine
[02:18.73] New York state of mine
[02:21.36] New York state of mine
[02:24.27] New York state of mine
[02:26.95] Be havin dreams that I'ma gangster --drinkin Moets,holdin Tecs
[02:30.60] Makin sure the cash came correct then I stepped
[02:32.80] Investments in stocks,sewein up the blocks
[02:35.06] to sell rocks,winnin gunfights with mega cops
[02:37.36] But just a nigga,walking with his finger on the trigger
[02:41.13] Make enough figures until my pockets get bigger
[02:44.04] I ain't the type of brother made for you to start testin
[02:47.81] Give me a Smith and Wessun I'll have niggaz undressin
[02:50.17] Thinkin of cash flow,buddah and shelter
[02:52.58] Whenever frustrated I'ma hijack Delta
[02:55.40] In the P.J.'s,my blend tape plays,bullets are strays
[02:58.69] Young bitches is grazed each block is like a maze
[03:01.48] full of black rats trapped,plus the Island is packed
[03:04.24] From what I hear in all the stories when my peoples come back,black
[03:07.49] I'm livin where the nights is jet black
[03:09.51] The fiends fight to get crack I just max,I dream I can sit back
[03:12.99] and lamp like Capone,with drug scripts sewn
[03:15.24] Or the legal luxury life,rings flooded with stones,homes
[03:18.19] I got so many rhymes I don't think I'm too sane
[03:20.94] Life is parallel to Hell but I must maintain
[03:23.24] and be prosperous,though we live dangerous
[03:26.39] cops could just arrest me,blamin us,we're held like hostages
[03:29.48] It's only right that I was born to use mics
[03:33.05] and the stuff that I write,is even tougher than dice
[03:35.78] I'm takin rappers to a new plateau,through rap slow
[03:38.13] My rhymin is a vitamin,Hell without a capsule
[03:40.95] The smooth criminal on beat breaks
[03:43.52] Never put me in your box if your shit eats tapes
[03:46.77] The city never sleeps,full of villians and creeps
[03:49.27] That's where I learned to do my hustle had to scuffle with freaks
[03:52.71] I'ma addict for sneakers,twenties of buddah and bitches with beepers
[03:55.42] In the streets I can greet ya,about blunts I teach ya
[03:58.55] Inhale deep like the words of my breath
[04:00.87] I never sleep,cause sleep is the cousin of death
[04:03.49] I lay puzzle as I backtrack to earlier times
[04:06.32] Nothing's equivalent,to the new york state of mind
[04:09.37] New York state of mine
