Intro: raekwon the chef
It's the remix son
Can it beact like you know
Check it
Verse one: ghostface killer
Yocheck what happened out of state
I'm knocking off a half-a-cake cash ruleflying at a fast rate
I smoke the black dust kept my hands clutchedI'm fallin in lust
Spore plush I played my hand like a royal flush
Baggy jeanswallabee clarkspretty woman
I put it in himshot up in himdeadly venom
I hung around the big time bosses
Illegal force exchange thoughtsshowing love to all my sources
Spades tried to bag melike cagneyand lacey
Chef had that bitch stacey slippin in macy's
I dose offcatch a flashback on how I got trapped
And got licked like papsy in a mob flick I got hit
Stumblin holdin my neck to the god's rest
Opened flesh burgundy blood colored my guess
Emergency traumablack teen headed for surgery
Can it be an out of state nigga tried to murder me?
I should've stayed in job corpbut now I'm a outlaw
Ray cartegnacarry a fo'-fo' nigga
Chorus:
{can it be that it was all so simple then? }
Dedicated to the gods and earths
Dedicated to babies who came feet first
Dedicated to up north and down state
Dedicated to rich niggaz who sell weights
Dedicated to projects with black kids
Dedicated to man who build pyramids
Word up! what the fuck yo?
We taking you on another chamber
Word up sonyou know how we be on it
Yeah it's real
Show these crabs how to rhyme man
I think it's time to bless themword up
Bulletproof
First chamber
Yo chef yo
Verse two: raekwon
It started off on the islandak shaolin niggaz wildin
Old folks scream : stop the violence!
True layin up yowatchin these crack niggaz
Playin nuff crap games for what see?
Back in dayscrime pays in mad ways
Sportin tommy hil with caves 360 waves
And no searchin for loose endsnow flex 300 benz
Mad 10's with mad diamonds
Now that's the life of the good lifesometimes niggaz act trife
I paid the price throughout my hood life
Remember I got blastednow that's in the past kid
God forbid I lay in the casket
But now I'm all about g-notesno time for weedmixed with coke
I wash my mouth out with soap
And I got my act together'lo sweaters and better
And fat leatherso whateverbring it on
{can it be that it was all so simple then? }
