Song | Power, Money and Influence |
Artist | Guru |
Album | Version 7.0: The Street Scriptures |
作词 : Grae, Green, Guru, Solar | |
(feat. Jean Grae , Talib Kweli) | |
[Chorus: x2] | |
Power, money and influence | |
I had a taste of it, now I'm all into it | |
The game ain't over 'till I get my share | |
'till I have my run, this here is my year | |
[Jean Grae] | |
Man, I'm a tycon, whether in person or slick right on | |
Crisp Nikes on, six niggaz with sick pythons | |
Right around your area, face close like a scared | |
Straight playin your host, you get bitched out | |
This ain't fluffin a rang, this clip ain't bang | |
You sittin lame duck, shittin on the names stuck | |
I vow this year, power's mine | |
If I gotta sketch up my name, empowering rhymes | |
If I gotta attend jail just to boost up the sales | |
I know a laber owner that I'd love to bruise up for bail | |
I know my family got it, they pull together but it's amniotic | |
I mean baby like askin for a name spot it | |
The talent, the influental and erotic | |
Put on the back burner but potential as a parent | |
Every track is a murder but could treat it like lobonic | |
The play that graze here, now MC's in a daze mind | |
[Chorus] | |
[Guru] | |
In one second flat I tear your whole frame | |
Plus we pack like a stadium does, at a pro game | |
Got so many ways to end yo glory | |
Rub you out, shut you down, then it's end of story | |
I'm like Robert Horry with a clutch three | |
You can't touch me, the black double oh-seven, nigga trust me | |
Modern day Ali when it comes to the rhyme | |
Know how to hold the fort down when they comin for mine | |
I'm crafty, I move swift and changeable | |
Plus I'm aware, of what jealousy and anger do | |
You can't help yourself then you can't help me | |
Can't smell what the truth is then you can't smell me | |
You can tell a million stories about how gully you are | |
Then as soon as you finish, I'm be pullin your card | |
I step so courageously, I rap so amazingly | |
I guess you could say, that niggaz slept on me basically | |
[Chorus x2] | |
[Talib Kweli] | |
Jean Grae, Kweli, Guru, for the first time | |
Let the games begin like Jaceson Taylor wrote his first rhyme | |
Technology make niggaz lazy, with the pro tools | |
Even you could write your verse in the booth like you were Jay-Z | |
A Hollywood between reality tv and rap | |
Is there ain't no more use for the classically trained actor | |
First light bulb ever made is still burnin | |
They sell the ones that burn out to take the money you earnin | |
Word that marijuana grow too natural to be a cash crop | |
We have cops at bars, smokin squares, throwin back shots | |
They walk the street and bring the heat to the apshalts | |
Servin, protectin the half, beatin on the half not | |
Niggaz talk greasy in the magazines | |
'Till they track down and you hear the sounds of loaded magazines | |
Havin dreams 'till they ribs got a gat in between | |
Passion for cream, make a nigga wanna splatter your spleen | |
That shit is mean | |
[Chorus x2] |
