Album: Reasonable Doubt (1997)
verse I
I am makin sure it turns gold, when the weather folds,
just put away the leathers & put ice on the gold,
chilly with enough bail money to free a big willy,
hi-stakes, I got more at stake than philly,
shopping sprees, coppin 3, deuce fever I.S´n,
fully loaded, aahh yes,
bouncin in the lex luger, tires smoke like budah,
50 g´s to the crap shooter, niggas cant fade me,
chrome stocks beamin, through my peripheral,
I see you schemin, stop dreamin, I will leave ya body steamin,
niggas is fiendin, whats the meanin?,
I am leanin on any nigga intervenin with the sound of my money machine´n,
my cup´s runneth, over with hundreds,
I am one of the best niggas that done it,
6 digits & runnin, y´all niggas dont want it,
I got the godfather flow, the don juan demarco,
swear to god dont get if f*cked up
chorus (Mary J. Blige)
takin out this time,
to give you a piece of my mind,
(Jay-Z) cuz you cant knock the hustle,
who do you think you´re?,
wel baby one day youll be a star
verse II
last seen outta state, where I dropped my slang,
I am deep in the south, kickin up top game,
bouncin on the highways, switchin 4 lanes,
screaming though the sunroof money ain´t a thing,
your worst fear confirmed, me & my fam roll tight like the firm,
gettin down for life, thats right, you better learn,
why play when fire burns?,
we get together like a choir, to acquire what we desire,
we do dirt like worms, produce g´s like sperm,
until legs spread like germs,
I get extensive hoes, with expensive clothes,
and I sip fine wines, & spit vintage flows,
what y´all dont know?
cuz ya cant knock the hustle
chorus (Mary J. Blige)
runnin until the late day, I am the one whos crazy,
cuz thats the way youre makin me be, (the way you make me feel),
(Jay-Z) cuz you cant knock the hustle
I am just tryin to get mine, I dont have the time,
to knock the hustle for real
verse III
y´all niggas lunchin, punchin the clock,
my function, is to make much & lay back munchin,
sippin remy on the rocks, my crew, somethin to watch,
nothin to stop, un-stoppable,
scheme on the ice, I´ve got to hide ya crew,
I´ve got to, let you niggas know the time like movado,
my motto, stack rocks like colorado,
while I order champagne, kristals by the bottle,
its a damn shame, what ya not though, me,
slick like a gato (cat), f*ckin jay-z,
my pops knew exactly what he did when he made me,
he tried to get a nut & he got a nut & what!,
straight bananas, can a nigga, see me,
got the U.S Open, advantage jigga,
serve like Sampras, play fake rappers like a canvas,
le tigre, son youre too eager,
you ain´t havin it?, good, me either,
lets, get together & make this whole world believers huh,
at my arraignment, screamin,
all us blacks got is sports & entertainment,
till we even, leavin, as long as I am breathin,
cant knock the way a nigga eatin, f*ck you even, (f*ck you)
chorus (Mary J. Blige)
takin out this time,
to give you a piece of my mind,
who do you think you´re?,
well baby one day youll be a star
runnin until the late day, I am the one whos crazy,
cuz thats the way youre makin me be, (the way you make me feel),
I am just tryin to get mine, I dont have the time,
to knock the hustle for real
