"Yo Nate, shit is crazy, I shook hands with mad dead niggas yo, all the
2
niggas that used to be on the block, Ill Will, Marty, Black Ed, yo Son,
3
mad niggas is gone, rest in peace though."
4
Verse 1:
5
Fifty-Two blocks, Gazelle frames
6
bald heads and heavy chains
7
somehow caught in the game
8
back in '83, before cable TV
9
when these so called thug niggas played in the street
10
I used to hear the stories
11
live niggas here before me
12
like the Rich Porters, the Fat Cats, the Pauly's
13
outlaw league, from the street to the Pen
14
eyes glossy, niggas only speak when they bent
15
off the perfect mixture
16
forcin' down herbs and liquor
17
only hot slugs 'll hurt ya quicker
18
think it out and elevate, I gave years to the state
19
as a 92-R-7478, it set me straight
20
the changing of a stubborn cat
21
the one that used to hustle on the block mad hard and loved to rap
22
in goose down coats and wool hats, the youth in me
23
I guess life on the streets ain't what it used to be.
24
Chorus
25
I remember! (echo)
26
When niggas used to live it up, live it up
27
flashin' dough all night
28
I remember! (echo)
29
when niggas didn't give a fuck, gettin' drunk
30
shootin' guns all night.
31
Verse 2:
32
Straight shots of Hen with no chaser
33
mo' paper, stubborn, hard headed like Joe Frazier
34
the Gremlins, the pack that I come with
35
keep gats by the stomach
36
act up and stack hundreds
37
niggas don't want it, see me I be the ring leader, Lion tamer
38
do the bankhead and Macarena
39
a black entertainer, bottom line
40
ya'll niggas know who got the hottest rhymes
41
face it, I got the whole globe on some Nate shit
42
straight from the corners to the covers of the latest Rap Pages
43
turn the Projects to black Vegas
44
Don Kingin' niggas, make 'em sign blank papers
45
It's the American way, do my enemies pray or is it just me?
46
hustlin', hopin' the fiends trust me
47
talkin' to us, hold up, let me walk you through this
48
wannabe pimps, hoes, often shooters
49
niggas need to know what the truth is
50
fuck the sarcasm
51
I miss my nigga Mark but God has 'em
52
when I see his flics I start spazzin'
53
I learned to let it go
54
but I guess livin' this life a nigga never know.
55
Chorus
56
Verse 3:
57
I used to love Starters, thug garments
58
boppin' into Spofford, R.O.R. on drug charges
59
writin' on walls, florescent markers and krylon
60
savin' my loot to buy a firearm
61
broken safety, borough hall and Jay street
62
hopped the train not knowin' that a fall awaits me
63
problems came when I started slingin'
64
late night I hear revolvers ringin'
65
the echos cause cops to start Rodney Kingin'
66
many riots, is there any silence?
67
everybody sipped Henny, hustled with many clients
68
growin' up on the same block my Pops was raised
69
rocked waves, blend tapes playin' on hot days
70
brought the speakers out
71
police made us put the wrieffer out
72
peep it, I was too young to leave the house
73
I'm tryin' to see the World, runnin' the streets without a care
74
I remember it well 'cause I was there.
75
Chorus
