Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The world at my sneakers
Gold pieces moulded with Jesus features
Give streets the fever from the way I spit the Ether
Came on the scene at 19, a gritty fiend for
Money, power, respect, get it by any means huh
[Verse 2]
New Yorker, slick talker, walk like a brick flipper
Decimal doctor, multiply to get richer
I'm a entrepreneur, I'm the heart of the city
I'm a part of the sewers, I'm the honorable Diddy
[Verse 3]
I taste the dirt in my sweat
That's from the Harlem struggle
All in my swagger that's the reason why I got my hustle
I got the highest stature, Miami diamond flasher
I got you caught in the most flyest stylist rapture
[Verse 4]
My signature next to Christopher Wallace, get it honest babe
My first album through to him, that was my biggest project
Now I'm the illest known to walk like the illest soldier
And when I smoke, only roll up with the illest doja
[Verse 5]
You sit and mull it over my venom a killer cobra
It's Harlem USA, I Diddy bop and shop with Oprah
Yeah, ****, what?
[Verse 6]
****, what?
My voice I'm killing 'em
I shed my blood
About everything I love
[Verse 7]
To the eye blacker over handed face the palm smacker
Good scrapper, cat stacker, good wood pecker
Tear up the Dom P wrappers faster
Platinum Patron splasher fuck Cris spit at ya
[Verse 8]
I call it rich ignorant laughter
Black American express card all gray now
It's scratched up from constant usage
Girl kidnapper, pop tags off tags
Papa making monster music
[Verse 9]
Still I Costra Nostra, big roaster skin cola, girl, when I send for ya
Bring friends wont ya
I'm from the 80s NYC, five percent of culture
Breeze through with that old school blue malaroma
Wrist glowing, hoing, fly off in a Boeing
Slide off with your ho and spend six figures on her
[Verse 10]
My persona, Sean John unforgivable cologne
Copping the biggest diamonds makes me sorta bi-polar
Ferrari to Phantom, vehicles for high rollers
The studded chain around my neck
It makes the night colder
Yeah, ****, what?
[Verse 11]
****, what?
My voice I'm killing 'em
I shed my blood
I sold everything I love, man
About everything I love
[Verse 12]
The Queens Crypt keeper, Mets hat rocker
Pretty bitch slobber, ex-robber
Heister, my own life biographer
Pants sagging, Bentley whipping, summer jam stopper
Tim truck wearing pineapple rocker
Then I spray choppers
[Verse 13]
A doctor in the jungles of Haiti made me
Draped in paisley bandannas
Suits with Adam Stacey
Cigar like Dick Tracy
It's dark, I get spacey
Alcohol and laced weed
That was part of my 80s
[Verse 14]
The Cartier consiglieres be near me
Canary yellow cuts in pinky yearly
Liz Taylor tried to jux me
'Cause I keep it green like the other side of Bill Bixby
When he gets mean think fast before I blast hoes
Like Grassy Knoll
Went from scraggly old clothes to the illest fashion
And realist rappin'
[Verse 15]
Pablo back on the scene, won't roll back up with green
Strictly paper cruising through the strip in Vegas
Two of New York's biggest ****
Y'all used to hate us but now you love us
Nas and Diddy, power hustlers
Yeah, ****, what?
[Verse 16]
****, what?
My voice I'm killing 'em
I shed my blood
About everything I love
Come on, come on
[Verse 17]
On everything I love, man
[Verse 18]
On everything I love
It's on everything I love
