Uhh

Uhh yeah

Won't stop niggaz

Somehow the rap game remind me of the crack game

Jigga feel me

People told ya motherf**kers told ya

See that rap sh*t is really just like sellin smoke

See that rap sh*t is really just like sellin smoke

Geyeah

We treat this rap sh*t just like handlin weight

What they want we give it to em what they abandon we take

Hit a rapper with consignment let him know it's at stake

Put his a** in the studio let him cook up a cake

When it's hot get on my money spot in every state

Like the wiz in camelot the mom and pop's is the gate

But first we scope sh*t advertise in every area

Let the fiends know hey we got some d**e sh*t

Gon' need a middle man so we look to radio

Let em test the product give em a promo show

Just a breeze not enough to catch a real vibe

Then we drop a maxi single and charge em two for five

Ain't tryin to kill em at first just buildin clientele

So when the album drops the first weeks it's on sale

But when demand grows it's time to expand yo

You don't want no garbage papi it's ten grand per blow fo' sho'

Somehow the rap game reminds me of the crack game

See that rap sh*t is really just like sellin smoke

Somehow the rap game reminds me of the crack game

See that rap sh*t is really just like sellin smoke

Somehow the rap game reminds me of the crack game

See that rap sh*t is really just like sellin smoke

I got that uncut raw to make a fiend's body jerk

Got your whole block now pumpin my work

My cd's is like keys for you willie's who

Like to floss my cassette tapes in sixty two's

And my singles like gems you know the treys

Get you high for a while but the high don't stay

You need another fix you better cop these last two bricks

Cause when this sh*t flip I'ma get on some other sh*t

Never pitchin for a label jigga's the hook up

You know my sh*t is fish scale y'all niggaz is cook up

Just blow up scream my name from brooklyn to da kota

They know my sh*t stretch without the baking soda

Went from an eighth to a quarter to a half a key

Priority's work wasn't right so I switched factories

Now I'm the new ni**a who figured I'd get the game locked

Now watch how the prices of your coc*ine drop ha ha

Somehow the rap game reminds me of the crack game

See that rap sh*t is really just like sellin smoke

Somehow the rap game reminds me of the crack game

See that rap sh*t is really just like sellin smoke

Somehow the rap game reminds me of the crack game

See that rap sh*t is really just like sellin smoke

Somehow the rap game reminds me of the crack game

See that rap sh*t is really just like sellin smoke
