[00:08.140] Sip the juice cuz i got enough to go around
[00:10.480] And the thought takes place uptown
[00:12.490] I grew up on the sidewalk where i learned street talk
[00:15.180] And then taught to hawk new york-
[00:16.630] I go to queens for queens to get the crew from brooklyn
[00:18.810] Make money in manhattan and never been tooken
[00:20.800] Go uptown and the bronx to boogie down,
[00:22.980] Get strong on the island, recoupe, and lay around
[00:24.960] Time to bulid my juice back up
[00:26.840] Props back up, suckers get smacked up
[00:29.090] Don't doubt the clout, you know what i'm about
[00:31.100] Knocking ****** off, knocking ****** out
[00:33.130] Shaking em up, waking em up
[00:35.160] Raking em up, breaking em up...
[00:37.220] Standing on shaky grounds too close to the edge
[00:39.740] Let's see if i know the ledge
[00:50.100] Corners' trifling 'cause shorty's here
[00:51.750] I get cock-d liffin' forty's of beer
[00:53.930] Here's a sip for the crew that's deceased
[00:56.080] If i get revenge, then they rest in peace....
[00:58.010] Somebody's got to suffer, i just might spare one
[01:01.050] And give a brother a fair one
[01:02.350] Stay alert and on "p's"
[01:03.930] And i do work with these- like hercules
[01:06.260] Switch to southpaw, split your right jaw
[01:08.460] 'cause i don't like y'all, i'm hype when night fall
[01:10.750] Smooth but i move like an army
[01:12.640] Bulletproof down in case brothers try to bomb me
[01:14.670] Putting brothers to rest like elliot ness
[01:16.820] 'cause i don't like stress
[01:18.860] Streets ain't a place for innocent bystanders to stand
[01:20.820] Nutting's gonna stop the plan
[01:22.820] I'll chill like pacino, kill like deniro
[01:25.040] Black gambino, die like a hero
[01:27.080] Living on shaky grounds too close to the edge
[01:29.450] Let's see if i know the ledge
[01:40.330] Shells lay around on the battleground
[01:41.790] Dead bodies are found throughout the town
[01:43.780] Tried to put shame in my game to make a name, i'm a
[01:46.050] Put it on a bullet, put it in your brain
[01:47.910] Rip the block like a buckshot
[01:49.520] Who cares where it goes, just keep the casket closed
[01:52.120] No remorse when a life is lost
[01:53.970] I paid my dues- paid the cost
[01:56.190] ...and my pockets are still fat
[01:58.260] Wherever i'm at, i get the welcome mat
[02:00.160] Even if my crew steep with one deep
[02:02.430] I attract attention, people like to peep
[02:04.430] So come say hi to the badguy
[02:06.550] Don't say goodbye, i don't plan to die
[02:08.720] 'cause i get loose and i got troops
[02:11.880] And crazy juice
[02:12.900] In control of many like ayatollah khomeini
[02:15.240] Hang out wit smith and wesson, don't try to play me.
[02:17.260] I'm at war alot, like anwar sadat..
[02:18.960] But no warning shot, my gun is warm alot
[02:21.000] When i cook beef, the smoke will never clear
[02:23.120] Areas in fear but this here's a fear
[02:25.740] Living life too close to the edge
[02:27.450] Hoping that i know the ledge....
[02:37.740] A brand new morn, no time to yawn
[02:39.740] Shower's on, power's on
[02:41.740] Late for school, i catch the train
[02:43.890] Girls sip "cristal" and whisper my name
[02:45.910] I push up like an exercise
[02:47.870] Check the intellect and inspect the thighs
[02:50.060] Select the best one, pull her to the side
[02:52.250] Keep her occupied for the rest of the ride
[02:54.310] Read my resume she's know i'm 'ready cool
[02:56.370] Just meet me after school
[02:58.460] We can moan and groan until your mom come home
[03:00.530] And you be calling me al "****" capone
[03:02.670] Sweatin' me, she didn't want to let me loose
[03:04.530] Come get me, that's if you want to sip the juice
[03:06.530] Cause the streets await me, so i take my gun off safety
[03:09.710] Cause alot of ****** hate me
[03:10.920] Coming out of the building, they set me up
[03:12.950] Sprayed wit automatics, they wet me up
[03:14.850] In a puddle of blood, i lay close to the edge
[03:17.830] I guess i didn't know the ledge.....
