Da Bridge 2001

[marley marl]

Ladies and gentlemen, we got queensbridge finest up in this mothafucker tonight

They just came from war

They wanna let you know a little something about where they come from

"the-the bridge" "queensbridge" "the-the bridge"

"the-the bridge" "queensbridge" "the-the bridge"

"the-the bridge" "queensbridge" "the-the bridge"

"the-the bridge" "queensbridge"

[mc shan]

You love to hear the story, again and again

About a rap dynasty that just won't end

The monument, still in your face

Niggas played out, shan still in the place

Hip hop was set out in the dark

The bridge was never over, we left our mark

The jam is dedicated to you and your boys

I brought my queensbridge thugs to kill that noise

[havoc]

If you was an out-of-towner, had to know somebody wit strength

You know the drill, shit was real, fuck around, got killed

You know the hill breed of thugs, death to those that squeal

Squeezin them slugs, one love to thugs that died in the field

So many names don't got time to spit em, but through my rhymes they livin

We the bridge through tracks i'm givin

Never lose sight, 41st side's my life

The 40th side of life, dunn we keepin it tight

[cormega]

Yo it ain't just the music

Group aspirations or ghetto illustions

It's the product, east side, and all the beautiful children

And unleashed dreams comin through each building

If you sleep, you better wake up as you see

Mega more mature, i'm on a record wit nature

Mind on my paper, nine in my waist

There's no denyin the greatness

Queensbridge, never try to disgrace it

[millennium thug]

Aiyyo the queensbridge associations breeds similarity

Bricked up, chipped off rocked out salaries

Pull out long guns, pop out casualities

It's like i gotta see a thug nigga ill as me

The ill will in me, i rep that willingly

Step back enemies, death tracks feelin me

Six blocks, losin my mind

Runnin from d's

These p's got me usin my nine, i pop off

[nature]

Y'all know the place where stars is from

Every night it sparks off and the crowds'll run

We leave chicks strippin over strollers (slippin sova)

In queens, you be the victim till you get to know us

Your hood's bogus, my hood be keepin it crunk

So much be jumpin off i ain't sleep in a month

Y'all can play the front line, i be deep in the cut

Drive through, you can't peep it enough

You in the bridge nigga

[capone]

You must pay homage to my projects

We thorough to the end

Only jail and death divide us

From rap to the crack suppliers

Out-of-towners get knocked off

We regualte blocks laws

I had the hood like watts flooded wit cop force

Qb to the cracks in the pavement

Mister everything that ? pool for stacks in a basement

Niggas understand the drama we bring

The legacy, dynasty upholding the ring where qb is king, what!

[tragedy]

Yo for you i take a fifth to the head till i url

Boomerang dunn, qb bust they gun

Keep them pc niggas on the run, one

Mahti specialist, 2-5 the nemesis

The last verse, "t.o.n.y." remember this

Resurrect through the birth of my seed, crime genetic

You synthetic, your gangsta's cosmetic

I move niggas telekinetic, who wanna set it

[prodigy]

Yo yo move...

Me and my dogs comin through

We the grain, go against us you feel pain

Get ranked on, we beat niggas numb

These niggas is dumb, you can't resist my dunns

2001 we still thump, the fuck happened to ya'll?

We like that snowball, goin downhill

We get large, you get bullets lodged

In your jaw, your ribs, your arms

We party hard, at the bar

Buyin bottles of overpriced styles and remy mar

The head niggas in charge

We number one, qb there's no competition

Infamous records, bars and hooks listen

Littles, noyd, and mega

We independent, dunn we infamous mobbin

G.o.d., nitty and twin in

The ill will bravehearts, l.e.s. millennium

[nas]

Yo blow faces, fo-fo blazes, no one's safe

This music mogul rollin wit a hundred soldiers

Gangstas we postal

Oh you didn't, wanna know whose life was written

The life i'm livin

The ice the women

The kites that sendin to lifeless biddin

The streets to prison

I touch you then buck you

Heats be spittin

La-ser, ar fifteen doors come down

Jaws is broke, your whole crew is coffin bound

Your hoe, your man, lieutenant, your boss get found

This dough i got, i spend it and toss around

New york it's time we flip it, where you from?

Ladies, it's time we flip it, where you from?

Now tell me who was the true thugs in videos first?

Who had the projects behind us, who bit it the worst?

We from the largest project, yo the biggest on earth

Queensbridge know they history, left y'all cursed cuz

[chorus] *repeat to fade*

Keep on rockin the bridge and keep rockin

If the beats stop rockin, the bridge'll keep rockin
