It may take a long time but my house will last forever |
|
And it will have been worth it |
|
What are you going to build your house with? |
|
Yo I'm stayin' where we gettin' crazy love |
|
My noisy neighbors live just above me |
|
Up in 13-A, there's drama everyday |
|
The Super say he gon' fix the heat for sure |
|
Tchk, I done heard it five times before three locks on every door |
|
'Cause some folks got the tendency to take |
|
It ain't Beverly Hills, more like Stephanie Mills |
|
I never knew love like this could ever exist |
|
Four corners in your metropolis yo it's the PJays pah |
|
We exquisite like cars made in foreign see ain't a day out here |
|
Ever boring where gunshots keep you up instead of heavy snoring |
|
Pipes dripping, instead of rivers pouring |
|
The elevator's broken down |
|
(Damn!) |
|
And man I'm needin' a lift |
|
Thank God we don't stay up on the twenty-fifth floor |
|
Yo we ain't always at war it's a lot about the Projects |
|

|
But you wouldn't understand it the PJays is like another planet |
|
Heavy like granite you wouldn't understand it |
|
The cops will catch you drawers down red-handed, it's outlandish |
|
