[Verse 1]
It's the sickness
[Verse 2]
I got the MJ disease 'cause MCs wanna be me
If I spit anything, it's gonna be heat
'Cause Dilla Dog a one of a kind, ****
Killin' em off with the rhyme, a motherfuckin' son of a nine, ****
If I pull a chain out in the sun, it'll blind ****
First thing that come to your mind when you think of (Hardcore)
Takin' cuts to the front of the line
Now break blunts, fill 'em up and then fire and take puffs, uh
The city of Gs, the gators and gutter
The switches and Ds, the haters and murder
My **** runnin' the streets, they ready to eat
And roll heavy deep in Chevys and Jeeps
And most carry, so be ready to bleed if you (Talk shit)
Why check these ****, bra in the D, we walkin'
Most of my **** been locked down for something
Probably bitch-smackin' ****, knocked down for nothing
Got a fetish for dough, cheese, bucks
Out for the lettuce, so blow these nuts
[Verse 3]
It's the sickness
[Verse 4]
Yo, everybody's not gon' get me
They mad 'cause they can't accept me
They try to hex me, especially those who never rose
They want better clothes and nicer lives
I don't have an ego, I go harder than average people
Plus I got twice the drive, suited and booted
**** mighta heard I was lost
You might wanna consider your source
I try to play it cool, show people that I can chill
So wealthy people take me serious and know I'm real
Open a club up in Shanghai, I ain't step inside yet
Silicon Valley every two months on private jet
I'm venture capitol, ****, read it, how I invest
I'm in the trade so much
The Wall Street Journal but I don't flex or front too much
It's too early to serve you, I'd rather curve you
This ain't just rap, this facts
I'm in places, I shock faces 'cause they don't see black
So if you're ever in Maldives, tell 'em Nas said peace
I'm frontin', I've never been to Maldives, not even Greece yet
But I bet out in Greece, I get that respect
[Verse 5]
Yeah, you's a sick bitch
Rough draft, motherfuckers
