There's nothing I can say 'Cause I just can't be heard anymore I was forced to be a gangbanger On the cover of The Source with my chain hangin' That was '05, still Fuck Benzino Ridin' through the city with them twin Benzitos Steppin' on C-notes, rollin' red dice like casinos Throwing 'tron shots like free-throws Tell Judas I'm alive and well Will I be crucified? Only time will tell, until then I'm thuggin' Spend my money on whatever Runnin' through this cheddar as long as my crew together Pop Ace, pop tags, pop hammers Thug Life, I put that on Pac's bandana Los Angeles king, tell my niggas in the bing I blacked out the car and minimized the bling Updated the Ghost, went Nas on the wave cap And made wifey ring rocky, A$AP, yeah Uh huh, let's go This right here reminds me of when The playas had the dope so the girls brought their friends And every single night we did it again We had a good time, we had a good time In the city And they say New York City Fred the God I was forced to be a force Diamonds in my cross, the cost for me to floss Got me exhausted Exhaust that's on the Porsche, got me wide awake Just make sure that my wallets caked while I wait The coupe drop well Got banana clips in the Big Apple, homie, fruit cocktail Eh Game what it look like? I got the shorty and I'm playing with her chest in the corner Look like a rook, right? Hahaha The city that never sleeps We ain't talking 'bout money, we prolly will never speak Lobby within a week, we generated revenue Old heads put me on the things that I never knew I'm big in New York, word to my moms baby And it's hard to be the Giant, just ask Tom Brady That's why they pay me When you ask who the best right now, that's why they say me Fred and The Game, peace, T.B.M., peace This right here reminds me of when The playas had the dope so the girls brought their friends And every single night we did it again We had a good time, we had a good time In the city
