Take they ass on a high speed, throw the [?] over the bridge And if it ain't no water around, throw that shit up on a roof That way it ain't hand to hand and they ain't got no proof Always let somebody in your circuit know who you coppin your sugar from Just in case you end up, wind up havin a little more dough than him Cause dudes be gettin jealous and put yo head on a platter Funkin lesson number seven - never outshine the master In the cha-cha game, wanna know how to sell dope proper?
