Yeah

As some of you should know it
Yeah, yeah
Place: Marcy, Brooklyn
Actions: Well, ya'll know the actions
[Jay-Z]
Uh, I got this shorty on my block, always clockin' my rocks
He likes the style and profile, I think he wanna mock
He likes the way I walk, he sees my money talkin'
The honeys hawkin', I'm the hottest nigga in New York and
I see his hunger pains, I know his blood boils
He wanna...run with me, I know this kid'll be loyal
I watched him make a few ends, to cop his little sneakers and gear
Then it's just enough for re-up again
I see myself in his eyes I move from Levi's to Guess to Versace
Now it's diamonds like Liberace
That's just a natural cycle, nobody wanna be like Michael where I'm from
Just them niggas who banned from a gun
We out here tryna make hard white into cold green
I can help shorty blow out like afro sheen
Plus I can relive my days of youth, which is gone
That little nigga's peeps, it's time to put him on
[Jay-Z] It's time to come up
[Bleek] And hold my own weight, defend my crown
[Jay-Z] Gots to lock it down and when they rush
[Bleek] Stand my ground
[Jay-Z] It's time to come up
[Bleek] Stick out my chest and make some loot
[Jay-Z] Gots to lock it down and when they rush
[Bleek] Stand on my own two
[M.E.M.P.H.I.S. Bleek]
I'm out here slingin, bringin' the drama
Tryna come up in the game
And add a couple of dollars to my name
I'm out here servin', disturbin' the peace
Life could be better, like my man reclined in plush leather seats
And sellin' weight, I'm sellin' eight ball
Sixteen, tryna graduate to pushin' quarters ya'll
I ain't gon' sweat 'em, I'ma let 'em come to me
If he give me the nod then these niggas gon' see
I'm tired of being out here 'round the clock
And breakin' day, and chasin' crackers up the block for my pay
I'm stayin' fresh, so chickens check
I'm tryna step up to the next level, pushin 'Vettes to the jets
Diamonds reflect from the sun
Directly in your equilibrium, and stunned, I'm waitin' for my day to come
I got the urge to splurge, I don't want a lifetime sentence, just give me the word
[Jay-Z] It's time to come up
[Bleek] And hold my own weight, defend my crown
[Jay-Z] Gots to lock it down and when they rush
[Bleek] Stand my ground
[Jay-Z] It's time to come up
[Bleek] And stick out my chest and make some loot
[Jay-Z] Gots to lock it down and when they rush
[Bleek] Stand on my own two
[Jay-Z] Hey fella I been watchin' you clockin'
[Bleek] Who me? Holdin' down this block, it ain't nothin,
[Bleek] You the man nigga now stop frontin'
[Jay-Z] Hahah, I like your style
[Bleek] Naw, I like your style
[Jay-Z] Let's drive around a while
[Bleek] Cool nigga
[Jay-Z] Here's a thou'
[Bleek] A G', I'll ride witchu for free, I want the long term riches and bitches
[Jay-Z] Have 'em all, now listen to me,
[Jay-Z] You let them other niggas get the name, skip the fame
[Jay-Z] Ten thou' or a hundred gees, keep your shit the same
[Bleek] On the low?
[Jay-Z] Yeah, the only way to blow, you let your shit bubble quietly
[Bleek] And then you blow
[Jay-Z] And keep your cool
[Jay-Z] The only way to peep a fool is let him show his hand, then you play your cards
[Bleek] Then he through dealin', I understand
[Jay-Z] Don't blow your doe on hotties
[Bleek] The only thing I got in this world is my word and my nuts and won't break 'em for nobody
[Jay-Z] I like your resume, pick a day you can start
[Bleek] From now until death do us part nigga
[Jay-Z] It's time to come up
[Bleek] And hold my own weight, defend my crown
[Jay-Z] Gots to lock it down and when they rush
[Bleek] Stand my ground
[Jay-Z] It's time to come up
[Bleek] And stick out my chest and make some loot
[Jay-Z] Gots to lock it down and when they rush
[Bleek] Stand on my own two
[Jay-Z] It's time to come up
[Bleek] And hold my own weight, defend my crown
[Jay-Z] Gots to lock it down and when they rush
[Bleek] Stand my ground
[Jay-Z] It's time to come up
[Bleek] And stick out my chest and make some loot
[Jay-Z] Gots to lock it down and when they rush
[Bleek] Stand on my own two
