Rhyme a few bars, kick a few flows
For every word I spit, I get phenomenal
And we might as well shine together
I made moves in the trenches, lookin' over my shoulders
"A fool and his riches would soon part," that's what they told us
A school of fish follows the shark to eat his leftovers
And when that shark is hungry again, it ups the death total
Esco in that Maybach truck, Macallan Scotch in the cup
Three hundred thousand watchin' the stallion that's rollin' up
A boss is one who learn to get dough, then he show you
Keep the limelight, I curves them photos, I'm Yoda
The wise one, high off the blunt smoke
Worryin' about the next man will stunt growth
Just do my shadowboxin' and jump rope
I don't front for attention for ratchet sisters
'Til my casket dip, I'ma want more, just the truth, trick
So many new chicks, I wish I was born with two
Oops, I take that line back
A devil in a blue dress, I grind that
Body so crazy, they askin' where I find that
35 thousand feet is where I write my rhymes at
Rhyme a few bars, kick a few flows
For every word I spit, I get phenomenal
And we might as well shine together
Like a baby baffled, first time seein' his shadow
People react the same to what Preem and Nas will unravel
Rugged pistol holder slash government whistleblower
Repugnant information, the public should get to know us
The boroughs into Piscataway, know my album dates
A staggerin' rise of music comin' out, I calculate
'Cause when my name is mentioned, it's why the game be shiftin'
When you lames drop, the people remain indifferent
This is my dissertation, displayin' it at my leisure
Precious like postal cards written by slaves in secret
Black preachers castin' spirits back into Hell
Hear the trumpets in the Bible as Joshua starts to yell
Easy money is robbery in broad day
Might call BET to play my videos all day
The cribs are mini-museums
The closets are more like small department stores
I drop that raw
Rhyme a few bars, kick a few flows
For every word I spit, I get phenomenal
And we might as well shine together
