Juice movie - Juice (Know the Ledge) lyrics
rate meSong by Eric B and Rakim<br /><br>
Sip the juice cuz I got enough to go around,<br>
And the thought takes place uptown<br>
I grew up on the sidewalk where I learned street talk,<br>
And then taught to hawk New York-<br>
I go to Queens for queens to get the crew from Brooklyn,<br>
Make money in Manhattan and never been tooken,<br>
Go Uptown and the Bronx to boogie down,<br>
Get strong on the Island, recoupe, and lay around.<br>
Time to bulid my juice back up-<br>
Props back up, suckers get smacked up<br>
Don't doubt the clout, you know what I'm about<br>
Knocking niggaz off, knocking niggaz out<br>
Shaking em up, waking em up<br>
Raking em up, breaking em up...<br>
Standing on shaky grounds too close to the edge<br>
Let's see if I know the ledge<br>
<br>
Corners' trifling 'cause shorty's here<br>
I get cock-d liffin' forty's of beer;<br>
Here's a sip for the crew that's deceased,<br>
If I get revenge, then they rest in peace.<br>
<br>
Somebody's got to suffer, I just might spare one-<br>
And give a brother a fair one!<br>
Stay alert and on "p's".<br>
And I do work with these- like Hercules,<br>
Switch to southpaw, split your right jaw<br>
'Cause I don't like y'all, I'm hype when night fall.<br>
Smooth but I move like an army<br>
Bulletproof down in case brothers try to bomb me,<br>
Putting brothers to rest like Elliot ness<br>
'Cause I don't like stress<br>
Streets ain't a place for innocent bystanders to stand<br>
Nutting's gonna stop the plan<br>
I'll chill like Pacino, kill like DeNiro<br>
Black Gambino, die like a hero<br>
Living on shaky grounds too close to the edge<br>
Let's see if I know the ledge!<br>
<br>
Shells lay around on the battleground<br>
Dead bodies are found throughout the town.<br>
Tried to put shame in my game to make a name, I'm a<br>
Put it on a bullet, put it in your brain.<br>
Rip the block like a buckshot,<br>
Who cares where it goes, just keep the casket closed,<br>
No remorse when a life is lost<br>
I paid my dues- paid the cost!<br>
...And my pockets are still fat,<br>
Wherever I'm at, I get the welcome mat.<br>
Even if my crew steep with one deep<br>
I attract attention, people like to peep<br>
So come say hi to the badguy<br>
Don't say goodbye, I don't plan to die!<br>
'Cause I get loose and I got troops<br>
And crazy juice!<br>
In control of many like Ayatollah Khomeini<br>
Hang out wit Smith and Wesson, don't try to play me.<br>
I'm at war alot, like Anwar Sadat..<br>
But no warning shot, my gun is warm alot.<br>
When I cook beef, the smoke will never clear,<br>
Areas in fear but this here's a fear!<br>
Living life too close to the edge<br>
Hoping that I know the ledge....<br>
<br>
A brand new morn, no time to yawn<br>
Shower's on, power's on<br>
Late for school, I catch the train<br>
Girls sip "Cristal" and whisper my name<br>
I push up like an exercise,<br>
Check the intellect and inspect the thighs<br>
Select the best one, pull her to the side <br>
Keep her occupied for the rest of the ride <br>
Read my resume she's know I'm 'ready cool <br>
Just meet me after school,<br>
We can moan and groan until your mom come home , <br>
And you be calling me Al "dope" Capone.<br>
Sweatin' me, she didn't want to let me loose-<br>
Come get me, that's if you want to sip the juice<br>
Cause the streets await me, so I take my gun off safety<br>
Cause alot of niggaz hate me<br>
Coming out of the building, they set me up<br>
Sprayed wit automatics, they wet me up<br>
In a puddle of blood, I lay close to the edge<br>
I guess I didn't know the ledge....<br>
<br>
