Y'all lookin' for names, I'm lookin' for beats

Y'all lookin' for fame, I live in the streets

Y'all talk the talk, but I walk the walk

School street, home of the brave, NEW YORK

Y'all make movies, but I make moves

Straight up, y'all got somethin' to prove

Y'all niggas duck, but I swing back

Y'all niggas run, but I bring gats

Y'all niggas whisper, "X is a crackhead"

Aight fuck it, I'mma just crack heads

I bang niggas that cross the line

Y'all niggas talk shit from way behind

I stand my ground, but y'all niggas don't

Shit I go to jail, but y'all niggas won't

Y'all niggas walk around and get scared

But I don't give a fuck, I don't care

I ain't a dancing nigga, I just move to the beat

Sit there and nod my head but won't move my feet

Gangsta, so I'm holdin' up the walk

That dancing shit up to the rest of y'all (x2)

Kells get it crackin', y'all play chess

Kells gets to scrappin' and y'all just flex(?)

Why is y'all rappin, when I got next

You roll with them and I'll rock with X

Eastside motherfucka, Cleveland Brown

Burning leaves in the gutta, make it Cleveland loud

All I know is when the beefs on, the beast comes out

EST is in the buildin, we run this town

Ruff Ryders, you got a problem come find us

Hop up like the sand now right behind ya

Like where the cheese ??? fuck lasagna

Pair of shoes size bags, ????? stuffed inside 'em

Grimey, bare hand, no tool beside me

I don't talk online, hater come here find me

Me against the world, underdogs new Rocky

Givin a fuck if anyone co-sign me likes that uh!

I ain't a dancing nigga, I just move to the beat

Sit there and nod my head but won't move my feet

Gangsta, so I'm holdin' up the walk

That dancing shit up to the rest of y'all (x2)

Y'all niggas is pussy, straight up ass

I keep that thing, and I'll blast

Letcha man know, he don't wanna push me

Remember, it's you not me that's pussy

Y'all niggas walk light on your toes

I come through hard, kickin' down doors

I spit a mean 16 without a pause

Then let 16 go just because

You in it for the dough, I'm in it for life

You in jail beatin' your dick

I'm fuckin' your wife

I bring the drama, I bring the noise

Kidnap yo mama, bring her to the boys

I make shit happen with one word

You take shit laughin' nigga, you's a bird

I take niggas for everything they got

That's why I'm the dog and you not

I ain't a dancing nigga, I just move to the beat

Sit there and nod my head but won't move my feet

Gangsta, so I'm holdin' up the walk

That dancing shit up to the rest of y'all (x2)
