Uh
Let me break this shit down, make it simple for you niggas
Yo, uh-huh

I remember standing on that block (that block)
Just like yesterday (uh-huh)
D's pull up with the captain then I run (uh)
I tuned your street shit into corporate
A pot to a office
I give you how to be a rapper 101

First, you gotta be nice with it
I build my shit ciphering
Long hours in dark studios, that was the price of it
Syllables, details, Spoon's house where I tightened it (uh-huh)
Then I got so nice, I looked up and I wasn't writing it
Closer to your dream now, you ready for a team now
Niggas who keep you focused the only ones you should be 'round
I chose the hustlers who was with me holding the streets down
We making dope money off of a MP3 file
Now you go crazy
You make the streets hot
They should be playing your shit out every car and every weed spot
Every club, every barbershop 'til everything's locked
Make sure when the people speak your name that everything stop
Now look at you, you lit
You getting twenty for a feature
Your old hoes gotta hit your manager to reach ya
Your niggas think you changed, nah, all that change made you a thinker
You seen this game break the best of 'em, it's getting deeper
Remember to stay grounded, don't let it make you to a diva
You know them little traps be, the rap beefs and leeches
The jack boys will sneak ya, them tax boys can see ya
Your security and lawyers, didn't enjoy you with your feet up
Got the labels calling you
They fly you out to talk to you, low-balling you
And kinda still doubt if they could market you (what?)
Turn it down to show 'em that your number was unarguable
And when they double back, you charge them triple what they offered you
This how you rap

They probably thought this was a coke song
'Cause so far, I been the industry's Omar
Turned this shit into Snow Fall
Go off every chance that I get, I guess I'm a show-off
Flow on any beat that you play, I feel like I showed y'all
When I was up-and-coming, I had your favorites up and running
Had 'em dodging features with me, when my album drop, they ducking
I do press runs, they get quiet, around that time I don't hear nothing
When they drop I'm in they city, I'm outside like I been hunting
Boss shit, investing my own paper now like, "F*ck it"
Build another source of income 'cause rap alone won't cut it
Don't leave no money on the table, let's meet and discuss the budget (nah, let's talk)
If they let me go today, my own career, I could fund it
How they gon' weigh out your legacy? How the critics gon' judge it?
Is your chapter gon' be legendary status when they shut it (huh?)
So work delivery, add in some versatility
Double your workability
And now you know how to be a rapper (ah, uh)

I remember standing on that block
Just like yesterday
D's pull up with the captain then I run (uh)
I tuned your street shit into corporate
A pot to a office, I give you how to be a rapper 101 (uh)
I remember standing on that block
Just like yesterday
D's pull up with the captain then I run
I tuned your street shit into corporate
A pot to a office, I give you how to be a rapper 101

Ah, nigga
