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
