[Prodigy]

Chorus:

We doing it, getting our paper

we ain't rookies, we major

name brand gangsters, you still a demo taper

niggaz they wanna hate us

bitches they wanna rape us

everyday is like July 4th nowadays coz

we moving independent units

we sold out in any store in the US

getting that independent cake

we sold out in any store in the UK

[Twin Gambino]

We came to pop in

got ya ladies, draw dropping

nobody can stop us, I was brought up in the projects

and I got, tonz of haze from uptown

we not trying to sell that shit, that's how we burn it down

niggaz always drilling me, ‘till they see my four pound

bitches always feeling me, try to give me some head

while I'm in the studio, try to make that bread

not a contriet dude, or of with ya head

yo, 1st Infantry and fed

we gonna give you that gangsta music that hurts your ears

but the fear in ya heart, when you see the gift

we think big, A-L-C we get right

[Evidence]

Yo, everytime I rest, I put it all on the line

yo money never slept

that's why I barely get blessed

that's why I rarely go out, unless it's love at the club

time is bread, that's what I'm about

and all my peoples got cloud

check the resumé

one step closer to goal everyday

the game is to be sold not told

I tropping heavingly, world connected got the livest crew

we infinite, dropping gems but no clue

[Chorus]

[Alchemist]

Every dollar I spend on wax , I turn it back into cash

Jetting back to the lab, I'm getting back on my job

I'm fully backed by the Mobb, I keep my back to the wall

keep the blacks to my wall

I'm trying to stack till I ball

untill they cashing ‘em all

I wanna stack till this tall

ain't gonna rap for to long

gonna have to move on

I'm gonna stash till I'm gone

green grass on my longue

fuck a bank account, I need extreme cash in my palm

smoke blur in ya vision,

you don't know who ya dissin'

I don't learning no lesson

I just hold my position

I don't go with a pistol

they just know I'm official

shit, all I gotta do is start blowing a whistle

my name is ringing

my chain is swinging

right now I'm speaking, but these beats are what I'm famous for

fleaking

[Twin Gambino]

It's like rolling dice, we taking the bank tonight

cut your face with a knife, now your scared for life

all I want is ice, a car, a girl and a crib

tired of doing biz, I just wanna live

take care of my kids, fuck all that stress

never wore a vest, only holding tecs

[Chorus]

[Evidence]

We sold out every store in L.A.

It's loyalty where I stay, but ain't promised today

I keep my headlights on for 9-1-1

and on July 4th I might shoot one at the sun

independent regardless of the fact I'm a signed artist

fuck a deal it matters who comes hardest

when I entertain, It's like I took Sedrick for his name

hunger is just a different form of pain

I'm ready to eat, ready to hear my name spread on the street

to the point where I don't talk, my trackrecord speaks

to the point where I do a joint, that night it leaks

to the point where Alchemist is a hundred grand a week

bringing the heat, so clear you understand me

raise the stakes, up the antique

the better place, yo we land on winds

Dilated, Evidence, Alchemist, Big Twins

- Check it out

[Chorus]
