This Thing Of Ours (feat. Rick Ross, Wale & Nas)

[Rick Ross - Verse 1]

Huh...

Sometimes I get so f-cking paranoid

Reminiscing on how them bricks

Keep going back and forth

I ask the lord for everything I lack and more

Last thing on my mind was slamming Caddy doors

I just made up my mind, I’m grindin’ like a boss

Dedicated our lives, sacrifices we lost

Fatal mistakes, talking laws of attraction

The paper I’m making,

I upgraded my fashion

Everything tailor-made,

Floss is my passion

Loyalty came first number one rule in the faction

Follow my actions, came in it ’06,

Planted my flag, bitch I’m taking no shit

I toted them toolies, I bullied the bullies

I made a few hits,

My bank account Jewish

N-ggas is minor, the money manure

I’m thinking like Heinemann,

Godfather the 4th, It was never filmed, therefore never seen

It was never him,

That’s what these haters scream

I wrote the script,

I was sipping lean

Now meet the myth,

I brought along my triple beam

[Omarion - Hook]

This thing of ours, It’s a mafioso

You ain’t never know though

Never gon’ know so

No never, no never, no never

No, no, no, no

[Wale - Verse 2]

This reefer the sweetest got me thinking much deeper

They don’t rap for a reason

This is rather convenient spend money with my team

Make my money from hustle,

Women love you for fee n-ggas hate you for nothing

Never hate you in public

Better let they eyes tell it

Aint even 5’11″, what the f-ck you got scared of

I’m a loose cannon, screws damaged and

I do think hip hop music needs some newer standards

Hardest working conglomerate and that's word to my mama

Getting up in they mental

Get ‘em outta their garments

Adamantly coming at whoever call up for drama

Just know that DC, Philly, Ohio, Miami got us

Private jet over water, not got no barber

I see feds, I go that way, that DMV shit saw us

When you young and you black

They see you as a target

So before them phone pauses get ya lawyer in order

[Omarion - Hook]

This thing of ours, It’s a mafioso

You ain’t never know though

Never gon’ know so

No never, no never, no never

[Verse 3: Nas]

The don of all don’s since you wanna call me something

All of a sudden, n-ggas ball and stuntin’

Ya’ll just started pulling on pull ya car, ya spineless

Where ya heart, I know where mine is

A don is one who accept things he cannot change

Only thing I accept I cannot change is getting old and dying

Gold medallion, over my son chest

He’ll hold it down when I sunset

What does death mean to me?

I never owned the concept,

I was here, I’m just a spirit, lets get one thing clear

Everything segue’s into each other

One thing is just an extension of the other

My kid to me, I am my children through history

Of Stand up men and stand up women

I am existing I was conceived to break bread with kings

And make connections

We haven’t met yet

My reputation you’ve stuck with

Until we have our formal introduction that’s enough

But every male is not a man

So some of those that will hold out they hand wont understand

This thing of ours

[Omarion - Hook]

This thing of ours, It’s a mafioso

You ain’t never know though

Never gon’ know so

No never, no never, no never

No, no, no, no
