<i>[Intro: 50 Cent sample]</i><br>
Fix your motherfuckin face nigga!<br>
Look at these fuckin chimpanzees<br>
Bunch of fuckin monkeys...<br>
<br>
(Mr. Porter!)<br>
<br>
<i>[Chorus: Pharoahe Monch]</i><br>
I been shot, I been stabbed<br>
I took all that I have to give<br>
And I never ran, never have<br>
Just so all you niggaz can live<br>
I never thought there would come a day<br>
When my people would turn me away<br>
And it really tears me apart<br>
Cause I deserve a Purple Heart<br>
Nigga you should salute me, nigga you should salute me<br>
Nigga you should salute me, nigga you should salute me<br>
Nigga you should salute me, nigga you should salute me<br>
I, I showed you what a soldier's about, nigga you should salute me<br>
<br>
<i>[Joe Budden]</i><br>
Typical Joe Budden shit, ridiculed and lovin it<br>
The hood know I'm the dude that governed it<br>
Paved the way for my sons, laid down the cement for my semen<br>
Ain't my fault y'all got stuck in it<br>
Lately, it change like the weather, one minute they love me<br>
then they hate me; I'm through with shenanigans<br>
I don't care if dudes ain't a fan of him<br>
Can't checkmate a 8-figure nigga with the moves of a mannequin<br>
Talkin 'bout they wan' go somewhere to meet me<br>
Man they just wan' go somewhere to meet me<br>
Easy don't involve cops in it<br>
Got the key to my city, how the FUCK you think you got locked in it?<br>
Bitch!<br>
<br>
<i>[Royce Da 5'9"]</i><br>
21 Rugers<br>
On the hip of 21 goons, 21-gun salutin<br>
Bloody funds is what murder money becomes<br>
21 bodies on all 21 guns<br>
You from the D and you don't fuck with me, you lame<br>
The streets and the internet fuck with me the same<br>
So later for that punk shit<br>
Cause nigga I'll smoke you, that's why they say I stay on that blunt shit<br>
Niggaz'll spray you up before they wet your lady up<br>
Then shoot the baby bassinet to shut your baby up<br>
And I'm in line with the bread<br>
I hold niggaz down doin time in the feds<br>
Pharoahe talk to 'em<br>
<br>
<i>[Chorus]</i><br>
<br>
<i>[Joell Ortiz]</i><br>
Properly greet a general<br>
I'd have to take steps down to be on a pedestal<br>
I am what the 1-8 after the 7 do<br>
Give it my all but you want more, you lil' beggar you!<br>
Mean it's terrible, I showed hip-hop anyone's edible<br>
Never give somethin that's not respectable<br>
Never spit somethin that's not incredible<br>
Never sold my soul for numbers left of the decimal<br>
I done fucked up movements like cerebral palsy<br>
You don't know me, don't pause me - I'll throw lead at you<br>
Mean I earned e'ry stripe and you know it<br>
When you see me put yo' hand on yo' head and push it forward<br>
<br>
<i>[Crooked I]</i><br>
Before shots land on your head and push it forward<br>
Eastside Long Beach, I'm only pushin four words<br>
I organize a street massacre<br>
You haters know I broke bread with at least half of ya<br>
Out of town, hundred pound weed trafficker<br>
Got niggaz rockin Long Beach fitteds in East Africa<br>
I been stabbed, I been shot, a imperfect part<br>
Like my Grape Street niggaz I got a Purple Heart<br>
I kill your bitch at the beauty salon on Windham<br>
They take a nap on your lawn on a Louis Vuitton pillow<br>
Waitin for you to run out and say somethin<br>
Come out your face frontin, dumb out and spray somethin<br>
Bloaw! So move now<br>
<br>
<i>[Chorus]</i><br>
<BR><BR>
