f/ Shawn Black

Yeah yeah yeah this is for my people in the BX

Where they still call me DX

And this is for my people in the Rou

Where I grew like a screw, like this

[Hook]

Petty people and petty individuals

And petty situations that my crew goes through

Petty people and petty individuals

And petty situations that my crew goes through

[Shawn Black]

Ya see, jealousy fraudulent, cats fucked up

Longevity, so I stay down lower

Till I blow up, still destroy

All these Shawn Black decoys

Plans done changed due to conflict

Cowboys, we bomb shit

And I put that on my kills

Let my rap skills feel

It's the Shawn B. black is in the second letter

I stay wetter for that green and white cheddar

And all my niggas locked diggy hold ya head up

The rap game, will never ever warden me

Cause I'm a rip from 96 to eternity

Stay focused, right days, nights paid

With X assistance, now we're whippin'

850's with the Mo Mo's dipped in

[Hook]

[Sadat X]

I've seen lip-syncing that's done fucked that up

They live show looks better on the video

But they can start with the hip-hop mess of MC's

Holdin' back wages from a nigga like me

Just burned, black burn cause he want a turn

I told ya it would happen to this comin' attraction

Let the billboards with plastic, all I have is this Massenburg

And they can't talk no more, I'm gon' keep on livin'

Fueled by the microphone and xxx cash driven

Need to blow xxxx up so I can rest myself

In the best of health and have sex with my lady

Hey you don't get no xxx cause you always lookin' shady

Sick nigga like you talkin' about bonin' Jan Brady

Lady stand by your man

Even if he beats you with the back of his hand

Ah, Sadat X is like the size of Texas

And more, cowboy quick to the draw

[Hook]

[Shawn Black]

You can talk to me, I walk with a ten

I love shorties, plus red heads, Dominicans

Cool Chuck and X brought me through

We good people

Separate all the evil

I say things that make ya bounce like springs

Bust my caps let them thug cats sling

[Sadat X]

You would have tears in ya eyes

Cause you thought you would rise

But ya side reads small again

Actin' like a hooligan

Wanna act a fool again and front the party goers

Hey alot of niggas know us but that don't make us soft, I snatch

I don't rely on this rap xxxx I always keep a stash

[Shawn Black]

After a rough game, I see them willy niggas flossin'

Next time I see em' they be layin' in a coffin

It's all off top, you know my rhymes guns and clips

Read my spandex, I'm all about chips

Evaluate, Harlem blocks hot steppin'

I crack a weapon before the nickel plated check in

[Sadat X]

Harlem the game is something I'll never leave,

Crack stamp on the head be, vacation switch to plan b

If ya live in a glass house, don't throw stones

Hey I'm a made man done earned my bones

Been on the wax with the sick vocal tones

Fled Deleware got jammed in school zones

Ran into a tree at the university

Got into a gun fight at the skate p

Brave say division with my man 8-V

Smoke a dust plug is you crazy

[Hook]
