(skills) Small time rappers ain't dope as us
When you hear rappers in the club you hope it's us
Back in the days they used smoke the dust
But cats kept jumpin' off the roof too much
So today you don't abuse the dutch
We use our minds to write ryhmes that you can touch
My feet stay planted on the ground
You want that soft pop shit you better book another sound
We gets down
I know the streets
Yall rappers got maps out lookin' all around
(Huh?) Yall want the crown
But why should I battle you if next week they're gonna put you in the ground
Thats a waste of time
