|
The instamatic focal point bringing damage to your boroughs |
|
Be some brothers from the east with some beats that be thorough |
|
Got the solar gravitation so I'm bound to pull it |
|
I gets down like brothers are found ducking from bullets |
|
Gun control means using both hands in my land |
|
Where it's all about the cautious livin' |
|
Migrating to a higher form of consequence, compliments |
|
Of strugglin', that shouldn't be notable |
|
Man, every word I say should be a hip hop quotable |
|
I'm sick of bitches shakin' asses |
|
I'm sick of talkin' about blunts |
|
Sick of Versace glasses, sick of slang |
|
Sick of half-ass awards shows |
|
Sick of name brand clothes |
|
Sick of R 'n' B bitches over bullshit tracks |
|
Cocaine and crack which brings sickness to blacks |
|
Sick of swoll' head rappers with their sicker-than raps |
|
Clappers and gats makin' the whole sick world collapse |
|
The facts are gettin' sick, even sicker perhaps |
|
Stickabush to make a bundle to escape this synapse |
|
Man, life can get all up in your ass baby you betta work it out |
|
Let me tell you what it's all about, a skin not considered equal |
|
A meteor has more right than my people |
|
Who be wastin' time screaming who they've hated |
|
That's why the Native Tongues have officially been re-instated |
|
(Vibes, vibrations) |
|
Stakes is high |
|
(Higher than high) |
|
You know them stakes is high |
|
(Higher than high) |
|
When we talkin' 'bout the |
|
(Vibes, vibrations) |
|
Stakes is high, you know them stakes is high |
|
When we dealin' with the |
|
(Vibes, vibrations) |
|
Stakes is high |
|
(Hey yo, what about that love?) |
|
Yo, it's about love for cars, love for funds |
|
Loving to love mad sex, loving to love guns |
|
Love for opposite, love for fame and wealth |
|
Love for the fact of no longer loving yourself, kid |
|
We living in them days of the man-made ways |
|
Where every aspect is vivid, these brothers no longer talk shit |
|
Hey yo, these niggas live it |
|
'Bout to give it to you 24/7 on the microphone |
|
Plug One translating the zone |
|
No offense to a player, but yo, I don't play |
|
And if you take offense, fuck it, got to be that way |
|
J.D. Dove, show your love, what you got to say? |
|
I say G's are making figures at a high regard |
|
And niggas dying for it nowadays ain't odd |
|
Investing in fantasies and not God |
|
Welcome to reality, see times is hard |
|
People try to snatch the credit, but can't claim the card |
|
Showing out in videos, saying they cold stars |
|
See, shit like that will make your mama cry |
|
Better watch the way you spend it |
|
'Cuz the stakes is high |
|
Y'all know them stakes is high |
|
When we talkin' 'bout the |
|
(Vibes, vibrations) |
|
Stakes is high |
|
I think that smiling in public is against the law |
|
'Cuz love don't get you through life no more |
|
It's who you know and "How you, son?" |
|
And how you gettin' in, and who the man holding |
|
Hey yo, and how was the scams and how high |
|
Yo, what up, huh? I heard you caught a body |
|
Seem like every man and woman shared a life with John Gotti |
|
But they ain't organized |
|
Mixing crimes with life enzymes |
|
Taking the big scout route |
|
And niggas know doubt better |
|
Than they know their daughters |
|
And their sons |
|
(Oh boy) |
|
Yo, people go through pain and still don't gain |
|
Positive contact just like my main man |
|
Who got others cleaning up his physical influence |
|
His mind got congested, he got the nine and blew it |
|
Neighborhoods are now hoods 'cuz nobody's neighbors |
|
Just animals surviving with that animal behavior |
|
Under I who be rhyming from dark to light sky |
|
Experiments when needles and skin connect |
|
No wonder where we live is called the projects |
|
When them stakes is high you damn sure try to do |
|
Anything to get the piece of the pie |
|
Electrify, even die for the cash |
|
But at last I be out even though you wantin' more |
|
This issue is closed like an elevator door |
|
But soon re-opened once we get to the next floor where the |
|
(Vibes, vibrations) |
|
Stakes is high |
|
Y'all know them stakes is high |
|
When we talkin' 'bout the |
|
(Vibes, vibrations) |
|
Stakes is high |
|
Stakes is high, come on |
