Yeah, yeah Yo, yeah Yeah For- up in they mom's crib listenin' To this unadulterated Nas- wishin' it was them Instead of me on this track on this beach with palm trees Drinks with umbrella straws telling it raw Jungle of concrete- and snakes I was amongst that Bundles of- through this funnel that's black I want you to vision through my telescope see the hell I wrote It's Reynolds when I Wrap it like a envelope package And they would send the- back then Numbers, pimpin' and robbin', well they still robbin' and pimpin' But it's small change compare to hip hoppin' And did I mention millions because of lip poppin'? Trips, expensive gift shoppin', whip drivin' Benzes, Jeeps, see, them and they- got one It's shockin', you thinkin', nah, it's just rhymin' But all this time it's like organized crimin' For instance, there was a time when there was a line Between streets and business, but now peep how it's mixed in The beef is now sickenin', everybody got paper Words of power, because of it, the cops hate ya The government watchin' all of those who thuggin' it They want to lock us up 'cause they kids are lovin' it Not knowin' that most rappers are straight- The- ring out, whenever we clash it's Star Wars We call it Star Wars What happens when the- ring out, it's called Star Wars We call it Star Wars Caviar never, I rather the Cajun blackened Catfish, no snails, simple- to please Met a bad- dimples in her cheeks She remembers Busy be battles when it was peace Caught myself driftin' in thought, 'cause now it's different I thought - Was raised off the shit I record Like I was brought up off that Planet Rock Kurtis Blow, James Todd Smith, Shannon Scott, LaRock in the jams Why would they- with a don? Jehovah witness Him and his co-defendants, I eat 'em like Lucky Charms With two percent low fat milk, five percent pro black built It's nothin' mother had a- I don't think about it- talkin' there's a lot of gossip That I'm a prophet or I can't go back to my projects Can I? Does a plant grow from a pot, yes Do trees grow from a forest MC's, y'all are clitoris Y'all- roll with any click that's winnin' any crew Doin' whatever's trendy, even they leave me too Ain't enough room in this town What is beef between ghetto word spitters with crowns, Star Wars 'Cause this is Star Wars - Ring out everywhere, Star Wars 'Cause this is Star Wars Ring out This ain't no Oscars or MTV or Joan Rivers Fashion Police Not what you read in tabloid seats These are MC's that live by the code, it's hard for me to spit it Because the game was supposed to be sold we live it Came from the streets we the voice of the youth America's nightmare was given a the mic booth Nike boots, leathers and jean, jewelry, cribs and cars Rappers not dependin' on your nine to five jobs Entertainment, this is our world this is our language Different regions speakin' east and west gang- You got your positive- like, Common Sense But even he had drama with the Don Mega Cube Acknowledge the words get twisted at times it's rules What you think is different from the block whenever we feud - Your pictures and your plaques your tours and autographs Don't trust- and- who tell you you all of that 'Cause, they'll be in your enemies face, sayin' it's safe To run in your release party sprayin' the place Or catch you when you least on point, putting your keys in the door Behind you with your seeds in Kay Bee Toys store Maybe the words get disrespectful now your- check you You gon' let that- play you, you know we 'gon rep you Next mornin' every news channel and front page Headlines another rapper was slayed, this is Star Wars
