Sorta like Montana Romano Seated at the table like I'm Tony Soprano But a Godfather 2 with micro front of the panel Such a beautiful tactic Pantangeline's brother lurking in the shadows I conquered this mantle and built it from gravel Toil with the gavel Hammer heat quells like a rattle I travel the world, the paper is tossed, I fold The haters, the law, authorities They say that I boil, say I'm embroiled Claiming that I laundered Back and forth like Deion Sanders Crossed the line of scrimmage with that order but I was smarter I should garner the respect and admiration Liva's been patient Seen it all, been left at sea like a Haitian Involving the place and evolving a bracelet A botox facelift Gracious with the glaciers that I sent ya Arm out the window of that Vanquish spaceship And it's quite spacious Niggas just acting like they don't (niggas know) All you rappers just acting and you won't (niggas know) I got automatics, anything you want (niggas know) They acting like they don't see the light (niggas know) Two guns, nigga, you ain't seeing twice (niggas know) Two niggas scream, "Run for your life!" I'm a warrior, poet laureate May 13th born Taurian, cocaine courier So ahead of my time Like Back to the Future but minus the Delorean Replace it with the SL Tight wheel well Gas pedal, mash metal, bitch I'm flooring it Haters wish to see me, CB4 in it I'm going for my gusto, hoes adoring him Loving how a hundred karats adorning him Might trick a little, Christian Dior-ing him Fuck 'em, tuck 'em, duck 'em, I'm ignoring 'em Hell Hath No Fury like a woman with scorn in 'em Q-bert the continents, I'm exploring 'em G2, G3, I'm G4-ing 'em Hood dope dealers and killers on tour with 'em Root for the bad guy, the ghetto distorted him Niggas just acting like they don't (niggas know) All you rappers just acting and you won't (niggas know) I got automatics, anything you want (niggas know) They acting like they don't see the light (niggas know) Two guns, nigga, you ain't seeing twice (niggas know) Two niggas scream, "Run for your life!" From the drive, I take my time so it is distinguished You all speak English but not my language Tongue trickery, delivery got too many dimensions to it Let me slip into it, shit is foolish Who are these losers choosing to misuse the news Calling it music, forcing me to abuse it I no longer drop that converse, I bomb first Knowing that my fuse lit Shit, C4 to the fifth Power I devour styles that y'all cowards Eat it like I ordered it, reheated and slaughtered it And soon as I call out, they know whose voice it is Therefore that's nuff said Hot like fresh lead in dead man heads Spit sick like them with AIDS on death bed 'Bout to go, you can't fuck with me, niggas know Niggas just acting like they don't (niggas know) All you rappers just acting and you won't (niggas know) I got automatics, anything you want (niggas know) They acting like they don't see the light (niggas know) Two guns, nigga, you ain't seeing twice (niggas know) Two niggas scream, "Run for your life!"
