Lyrics

"What are we talkin' about?

Practice?

We're talkin' about practice, man

We're talkin—

We're talkin' about practice

We're talkin' about practice

We ain't talkin' about the game

We're talkin' about practice, man

When you come in the arena

And you see me play

You see me play, don't you?

You see me give everything I got, right?

But, we talkin' about practice, right now."

Before you start, I'mma tell you

It's gotta be from the heart

From the darker side of your thoughts

Then, it's on

Man, you wrong if you comin' at me

Without a reasonable idea of who I be

Cap Z, keep a straight face lookin' at me

Enemies disappear when you crooked as me

What you lack is fundamental, baby

It's practice

Motherfuckin' actors

None of y'all match this

Fact is my tracks is

Heavy as tractors

Traction through the traffic

I'm strapped in

Spittin' like a madman

Darker than Batman

Rappin'

With a passion you lack, man

Amazin', blazin'

Raised with anythin'

51-50 on the track

I'm lacin', ha

And, I'm talkin' 'bout me

Every time I hit the lab

Remember what Papa taught me

Practice

All day I gotta

Practice

Couple hours of

Practice

We talkin' 'bout practice

You ain't gettin' 'nough

Practice

You weak without

Practice

All work when I

Practice

We talkin' 'bout practice

Sweatin' bullets when I

Practice

Liftin' weights, and I

Practice

Runnin' laps, and I

Practice

We talkin' 'bout practice

Writin' rhymes, and I

Practice

Spittin' game, and I

Practice

I ain't the same when I practice

Yo, sweatin' in the booth

When I do what I do

Kid, I'm never satisfied

I'm just tryin' to improve

You a couple steps slow

When you tryin' to move

So, I'm never in the studio

Rhymin' with you

And, when the beef finally ends

I'm signin' you, too

That's why when you was ice grillin'

I was smilin' at you

Couple hours in the gym

I'm a machine, high-tech

Five sets, biceps

Triceps, I flex

Keep it gully, though, dog

Nasty as Nas gets

Guys get the mixtape

That's a deposit

Fuckin' champ

With the title on my waist

All eyes on Z

Got the target on my face

And, hip-hop

Ain't the only option

'Cause, the right uppercut'll

Knock you out like Hopkins

It's my time

And, I'm runnin' this rap shit

And laps around the track

Here, this practice

Practice

All day I gotta

Practice

Couple hours of

Practice

We talkin' 'bout practice

You ain't gettin' 'nough

Practice

You weak without

Practice

All work when I

Practice

We talkin' 'bout practice

Sweatin' bullets when I

Practice

Liftin' weights, and I

Practice

Runnin' laps, and I

Practice

We talkin' 'bout practice

Writin' rhymes, and I

Practice

Spittin' game, and I

Practice

I ain't the same when I practice

Yo

I remember, back in the day

The game was nuts

Honestly, I don't see no one

I can't crush

Your butt, it's obvious

You don't practice enough

Your whole goddamn rap image

Seems like a bluff

I'm the illest

Say it to you twice so you feel it

I'm the illest

Any rhyme you write, I could kill it

I'm the warrior, the stranger

The foreigner, the deranger

Your style is a prosthetic phony you made up

I studied all the greats

I'm a lyrical hybrid

A physical mind-trip

While you spin and recycle it

My bitch says I work

And, you best believe her

Myself on the court

Shootin' like Steve Kerr

Runnin' suicides

'Til I feel you're half alive

Or, half dead

Dependin' on how you glance at life

It ain't all trainin', though

Ask Al and I

It's on the big stage

Where the true talent lies

Practice

Practice

Practice

We talkin' 'bout practice

Practice

Practice

Practice

We talkin' 'bout practice

"Man, I, look

I hear you

I, it's funny to me, too

It, I mean, it's strange

It's strange to me, too

But, we talkin' 'bout practice, man

We're not even talkin' 'bout the game

The actual game

When it matters

We're talkin' 'bout practice."
