Verse One: Jay-Z
16
Growin up in the hood just my dog and me
17
We used to hustle in the hood for, all to see
18
Problems, I called on him, he called on me
19
We wasn't quite partners, I hit him off my P
20
Met him unlocked doors, off my keys
21
Yeah we spoke, much more than cordially
22
Man he broke bread with me, my business spreads with me
23
The Feds came to get me, we both fled quickly
24
Wasn't quick enough to jump over the hedges with me
25
Got caught, and that's when our relationship strayed
26
Used to call me from the joint til he ran out of change
27
And when he called collect and I heard his name
28
I quickly accepted, but when I reached the phone
29
he's talkin reckless, I can sense deceit in his tone
30
I said, "Damn dawg, what, nine weeks and you're home?"
31
He said, "Main man, you think shit's sweet cause you're home."
32
I just sat, spat no more speech in the phone
33
The crackers up there bleachin your dome, you're reachin
34
I said, "The world don't stop I've got to keep keep on."
35
From there I sensed the beef was on
36
I ran to the spot, store to add some more features to my phone
37
To see if I had bugs and leeches on my phone
38
Can't be too safe cause niggaz is two-faced
39
And they show the other side when they catch a new case
40
It's on
41
Chorus: Too $hort, Jay-Z
42
It was cool when you had hella weed to smoke
43
And you bought a new home where you could keep the folks
44
I don't see how this side of you could be provoked
45
(Uh-huh, uh-huh, it was all good just a week ago)
46
Funny what, seven days can change
47
A stand up nigga, now you sit down to aim
48
Used to have a firm grip now you droppin names
49
Uh-huh, uh-huh (It was all good just a week ago)
50
Verse Two: Jay-Z
51
Like I put the toast to your head and made you sell
52
We both came in this game, blind as hell
53
I did a little better, had more clientele
54
Told you put away some cheddar now you cryin for bail
55
Seventeen and I'm holdin on to around a mill
56
I could bail out and blow trial and come around on the pill
57
Had niggaz thinkin I was from Uptown for real
58
I had so much hustle plus I was down to ill
59
Like a Brooklyn nigga, straight out of Brownsville
60
Down and dirty, down to fight the round thirty
61
Freezin on them corners still holdin my crack
62
Lookin up and down the block, the fuck is the dough at?
63
Came from flat broke to lettin the dough stack
64
You tell them feds I said I'm never goin back
65
I'm from Marcy, and Marcy don't raise no rats
66
You know the consequences of your acts, you can't be serious
67
Chorus
68
Verse Three: Jay-Z
69
The lawyer I retained you said you leakin some things
70
All this after a week in the bang
71
I'm mad at myself cause I didn't spot the weak and lame
72
I woulda bet the house you wouldn't speak a thang
73
Nigga this was the oath, to the top of broke
74
Even pricked our finger, anything that got between us
75
we sposed to cock the ninas, what happened to that?
76
Instead you copped out to a misdemeanor
77
Fuck it, the same thing make you laugh make you cry
78
That's right, the same game that make you mad could make you die
79
It's a dice game, and sometimes you crap
80
Who woulda thought you'd get popped one time and rap?
81
Now you know that's bad when your sister is mad
82
and your son gotta grow up like, "This is my dad?"
83
The labelling of a snitch is a lifetime scar
84
You'll always be in jail nigga, just minus the bars
85
Chorus
86
[Too $hort]
87
Shit is crazy man
88
All these niggaz out here snitchin
89
We was one step away from takin this crack money
90
and recyclin it through the ghettoes
91
and buildin back up our own hoods
92
Now all you niggaz start snitchin on each other
93
I got partners doin 15-20
94
Wouldn'ta been doin SHIT
95
if you didn't snitch
96
Beyotch!
97
It's about time y'all check that shit out man
98
It ain't all good
99
Shut your mouth
100
Just watch the game
101
And don't snitch
102
It sure will do a lot for you
103
Believe that baby
104
Jay-Z, Short Dawg's in the house main
105
You know I got it
106
Got it goin on
107
We got the money
108
Ain't got nuthin to do with crime baby
109
But I'm recognizing
110
[Jay-Z]
111
You rat bastard!
