Lyrics
Yo, you owe it to me, give up the cash up out the sleeve (All out the sleeve)
And I'ma show you all how to MC (All how to MC)
See, I can rock a forum or rock with hababi (Rock with hababi)
I rock with OP, one of the soldiers of the team (One of the soldiers of the team)
See, y'all **** is dope fiends hopin' for a dream (Hopin' for a dream)
I intervene like a case of gangrene (Gan', gan')
Gain the green and exit the scene (Scene)
With a fine chick who could fill up a pair of jeans (Pair of jeans)
See, I'm doin' this shit, doin' this shit for McNich (McNich)
And **** at Conant Gardens who tryin' to do shit (Conant Gardens)
See, life ain't a game, it remains intense (Intense)
Lock onto a **** like a dog tracin' a scent
See, you gotta get your money, you gots to pay rent (Pay your rent)
Feelin' it, y'all, S are it
Uh, one of the musical priests, we form the lyrical Voltron
Hypocrites get stepped up-on in the combat
Don't you come back until you wax your soul
This the spiritual warfare, you up against
The lord of the first high priest, Melchizedek
Don't you conceive this, just sit back
Breathe, I got more where this come from, from
Jay Dee, the original drum master
You will never hit the best (Best)
Fast or slow (Slow), It doesn't matter, though
T3 times the MC callin' the lap (Lap)
Baatin, I'm the one who's in the tree of life (Life, yeah)
Hold tight, don't ever give up in the fight
Grace (Grace), can only come into the sight
Soul power, it ignites like the sun
SV dominates the industry for fun (Fun)
Fun (Fun, fun, fun), and I'm done (Fun)
Yeah, yeah, uh
To-to, to-to the beat
Yeah, yeah
You know we can't-can't stop, we can't-can't quit
Stances, answers, put up your hands and fist (Come on)
For the band, and if you can't stand
One of my mans, then you're sleepin', on some Sandman shit (Come on)
Like damn, man, wake up
SV bring the action on some Van Damme ****
More like a grand-slam hit (Come on)
For the whole fam, flipped it on the handstand tip (Come on)
We get the dough and dip, straight up, the wham-bam ish
Before we go-go and get it on some damn Wham! shit
Uh, Air Nikes, some secondhand-brand kicks (Uh-huh)
Rippin' from the D down to San Fransisc'
To Japan-land, it's the brand new (Huh)
We can't, can't move, feel like the Trans Am do (Do), do (Do)
Don't stop, we can't-can't quit
We can't-can't, we can't-can't
We can't-can't stop, we can't-can't quit, we can't-can't
Ayo
This is for y'all to dance to it slow
'Cause it's fantastic
It's fantastic
It's fantastic
It's fantastic
We say, "Fantast'," and roll
You say, "Huh? What?" You know
This that shh, ayo
This is for y'all to dance to it slow
'Cause it's fantastic
It's fantastic
It's fantastic
