Lyrics

Ladies and gentlemen
You're about to see
A pastime hobby about to be taken
We came far
In rap music, see many now are superstars
Made millions, live a dream and profit
Wasn't easy, a lot of shit came with it
Jealous ones envy you could be
Mutate dust the cells of your enemies
They want everything you have without earning it
Or try learning it
Meanwhile, what you built up now they burning it
Because they're not rightful
Get spiteful
Deal with the beast, give police a whole earful
Dirt on us
They get hopeful
When we murder each other, then they get cheerful
They're legends, I can't deny that
The shit that killed most, I survived that
So I know firsthand when I speak to you
They want us all dead, we are at war
Ladies and gentlemen
You're about to see
A pastime hobby about to be taken
Away from us, feds are mad at us
We built something, now they wanna eliminate us
Ladies and gentlemen
You're about to see
A pastime hobby about to be taken
Away from us, police following us
Hip-hop task force is harassing us
Rap changed
It's been infiltrated nowadays
The feds are at your video
Some are even agents rhyming at shows
Rappers wearing wires, stay on your toes
It's hectic, you gotta get encrypted
Big Brother's watching, deciphering lyrics
The feds are clocking, Sean John's rocking
The Wu got masters, Russell Simmons is pocketing
Multi-millions, Damon Dash got vodka
And Jay-Z's now with Reebok
Ladies and gentlemen
You're about to see
A pastime hobby about to be taken
Away from us, feds are mad at us
We built something, now they wanna eliminate us
Ladies and gentlemen
You're about to see
A pastime hobby about to be taken
Away from us, police following us
Hip-hop task force is harassing us
