Saigon - One Foot In The Door lyrics
rate me(Intro)
Who's the next top artist
That you would say is coming out, just on the scene
Wow, I dunno, man
It's a couple people that got a shot, man
Like who? Who ya got?
TI, he has a shot, he has a real shot
Lil Wayne has a shot
Fabulous has a shot
There's a lotta people
Somebody we've neva heard of, tho
Oh, I dunno
Oh, maybe Saigon, The kid Saigon!
Saigon? Yeah!
Yeah, Preme (the kid Saigon)
Cocksuckers thought they was gonna buy my soul, for a couple 100 000 (the kid Saigon)
Yeah know I'm saying
Illuminati for a car and a shiny chain, for a watch, a shiny watch
No, nigga, I'm Saigon (press the reset, man)
Never, I'm Saigon (don't do it)
(Verse)
Yall want me to make up a character and be it
That's what I gotta do for you people to have to see it
Why should I have to get shot in my back for you to achieve it?
Or be dead, a paraplegic, for these cats to believe that I breathe it
I done' went on the internet and been a wreck
Say Rick Ross and 2 chainz should get chin-checked
But then I drop 30 minutes of intellect
That woulda been neglected had I not pegged it with disrespect
So no disrespect, everybody got they own set of problems
I got dirt, I gotta disinfect
It's fucking absurd, spurred like a hug in the curve
Had the guts to make a couple cuts in the verb
Pimpin in the top 10, right behind Rakim
In front of Big Daddy Kane , nah I'm only playin'
I ain't fuckin with Kane (Cain), but it's a lotta niggas
Y'all can name and I tear em niggas out of the frame
Bang this in your old school box, ain't the Ipod days
This for niggas that had high top fades
This for niggas with the eyes all grays
That rocked shell tops when they was shell-tops
Stocking cats for the waves, I can take you to the days
'fore the greatest story was eva told
I was lettin' in berettas on low
Shooting in club, gunfire comin' from both ways
Couple niggas was targets, couple just caused strays
Now I said sellin' coke pays in the Illmatic days
Nowadays they offer you coke, go that-ways
Sai's in anomaly family
You ain't got the grammar and goin' hand to hand wit me is insanity
You need to examine me, take a close look at the crook
That the valley and the brook cold cooked
Take a look at the work that I put, 2 albums, 1 mixtapes and a book
And I only got one foot
(Hook)
1 foot in the do', but I fell on my knee
1 mo', without that I am just unsure
I want to give it my all, want to go balls 2 the wall
But I only got 1 foot in the door
I got 1 foot in the do' (supreme team scheme)
(Interlude)
Okay, Okay, I see what you doing with it, baby (see that?)
You down in the sprint position and whatnot man
Waiting for someone to pass the baton in the money marathon (you ready)
That's what it is, you know you can't just run with it, you got to come with it
(Psss, comin' wid it)
So um, I'll be up there waiting for you at the finish line (let's go)
(Verse 2: Big Daddy Kane)
You know it's somethin' bout that name big
As was knee small a pun, we awkin' gun
Remorse is none cuz we bossin', son
And that’s the type of shit that you don't see often, son
Now line em up so I can body all sets
I need to rhyme in front of volley ball nest
So y'all cash that shit that y'all went ova yo head
(?)
I’m so eager to just hold heat to ya
Y'all get tough in front of social media
I ain't a twitter thug nigga, I’mma split a thug nigga
When you all set above, I’m get a ball nigga
Too much shit will be genetical jay me
And C don’t get a fuck like forgetin who payed
These nigga funny, or vulling just ? and that’s a new act of rappers in the debating lane
(Outro)
These niggas dead Kane, I swear to god they're dead
Swear to God, it's The Yardfather man
I ain't holdin' back no more on these muthafuckas man
Shoutout to legendary BDK nigga, Brooklyn's own
Muthafuckin' Big Daddy Kane, DJ Premier, I got 1 foot in the do'
Preme take us out o' here the right way baby, hip-hop, nigga
Thanks to constantinv for correcting these lyrics
