Parrish:
My life story I tell straight from the heart.
When suckers tried to crash my shit straight from start.
A young black kid destined for successno old goldno cocaineor buddha cess.
Straight up hard work. no sleep and no shorts.
Brainstormin' with the skills that pop duke taught.
To keep swingin'yeahand not to quit.
Now I ride the benzyou ride the dickwith your punk friends
Straight up pussy from punk citymy attitude's fucked up and real shitty.
From the backstabbersyeah my so-called friends
Who swim in my pool. when it's timeflex the benz
Around townwindows down at the south towncool j tape or k-solo "spellbound"
With fly girlies dippinbrothers grippin' and sippin'
Old goldred bullhands on my dick and
I'm just lampin' with my ek shadestruck-jewelsobviously the man's paid.
But of course notbrother can't get his props
Like for instancewhen I cruise up the block
In my 560 lampin' on my metro phonechrome kit beamin' all off your dome.
But like a suckayeahyou looked the other way
That's how I knew you're on my dick kidbut it's okay.
It's normalrelaxyour whole head's busted.
Caught in the rap skitya couldn't be trusted.
Cuz my sounds pound from here to okinowi...{kiss} peace and I'm ouuuutie!
Refrain
Erick:
Stay tuned to this last episodewhen I rock the house and the mic explodes.
This is not the buckwild style that I be usin'in fact black
It causes {mass confusion}
It's a falloutwhen sucker mcs and crowds call out my name
Oh what a shame I got {fame!}
Parrish:
I'm not a new jackmy rhymes are not wackand in fact
I'm like clint eastwood'stead of bulletsrhymes I pack
In my flow gunso sonya better run
Cuz when it comes to hostage and prisonerswe take none.
We move wax like kilos ...{scratch}
And when my jam hits the streetsthe sounds explode.
Watch the right hookduck the death blow jack
I wonder where the e and the p's at...
[can they do it again? ] you bet your assblack.
[see you in '91] until things get the bozack... [i'm mad...]
