INTRO:
If you come across the border and your skills get tookin’
Walk with a gal and she ain’t good lookin’
Put it in the pot, but your food ain’t cookin’
We’re from T-Dot not from Brooklyn

HATE AND JEALOUSY TO A BROTHER LIKE ME

WE COULD POP SHIT OR WE COULD ROCK DA MIC
I'D RATHER ROCK THE MIC BUT IF YOU POP SH*T AND FIGHT

STAYED OLD SCHOOL LIKE PUMAS OR KANGOLS

CHORUS

V4.
I HAVE - INNER MIND VISIONS THAT PSYCH OUT
REMEMBER THE TIME YOU COULD FEEL ME PULL MY MIC OUT
I PITCH HIT THE RHYTHM SO MY MAN WOULDN'T STRIKE OUT
ECLIPSE THE SUN SOON TO BE LIGHTS OUT

EMBARK UPON A MISSION WIT NO AMMUNITION
TAKE ALL PRECONDITIONS CLOSE YO EYES AND LISTEN
TO MY SUPPOSITION DEVOID OF ANY AND ALL SUPERSTITIONS
----
