Ayo, call me an inveterate gambler who run the Carolinas
The fans come, throwbacks is Law & Order rap
Bitches just slow gas it
Bring water like the Johnny pumps that flow nasty
Hit sewers with shooters, the audacity
Fascinatin', appealin', underworld with Wonder Girl
Dope fiends love it, shootin' they nuggets up
Extreme criminality, I'm like the Rothsteins
The offsprings, all of this tucked inside my galaxy
Frankie Yale of the jails, silks, diamond spiders
We master writers who dumb out, relentless on the come out
Nocturnal habits, the mavens, I'm too insulated
This is just a crusade, nigga, we made it
Get into it
Everybody right now
Get involved
Everybody, yeah, yeah
Get involved
Everybody, yeah, yeah
Everybody right now
Night of the Long Knives focused, the gun toters
The folders gettin' older, it's over now
Eatin' hummus in Rover seats, tweakin'
Fumbling, gophers get rocked in they loafers
Tryna stunt, blunt frontin', no one niggas'll notice
We jewel kings, hate to bother you, robbin' you
Don't even argue with us
Slide it off, make a move, you noddin' off
Drinkin' makers, the paintbrushers, we cake makers
Louis luggage, puffin' the Doobie Brothers, we straight haters
Ferragamos, glass shoetapes, what's this?
Just a silk and a crunched wrist, your lunch, niggas
Call him chef and it's leftovers, they eat everything
Some niggas get caught in they best moments
We the examples, we who we said we was, never faked it
Ones who wore jewelry they couldn't play with
The ones who stayed rich
Details of my revolutionary ways probably get studied, some CIA shit
Who has true power? The Torah or synagogue leaders?
Quran readers or palm readers?
Witchcrafters or Christian pastors?
Rich rappers? Marx said "Religion's the opiate of the masses"
When Nas says, I got thoughts as if a therapist said
"What time you wanna learn what's in my head while I'm reclinin'?"
I'm just statin' facts as I respond like when the army walks
With assault rifles near army bases far beyond New York
Or foreign blocks like Hamas guys in emergency triage
Extended magazine knock targets off
Heart beatin' stops, car speedin', cops pull you over
To check for warrants, so give your best performance
Nobody got time for petty in the city of bosses
Syrene's is my psychiatry office
This mornin' I woke feelin' great so I went to an auction
To get lost in a different scene, spent the ticket on art
So interesting, a painting of a fiend in Hudson Yards
Another painting was black natives before Central Park
You know the claims, this was all native terrain
And the year was like sixteen-something
So could this mean hustlin' began
When the Indian finessed the Dutchman
With opium on horseback? This way before crack
We always been the mecca for supply and demand
In every era, legends in this land was goin' hand-in-hand, nigga
It's mind-bogglin' who we are, the modern kings
It get spooky in Harlem, Bronx, Brooklyn, and all of Queens
And Staten Island, real tight shit
Dyin' species of real men, I feel that shit, yo
Get into it
Everybody right now
Get involved
Everybody, yeah, yeah
Get involved
Everybody, yeah, yeah
Everybody right now
Get into it
Everybody right now
Get involved
Everybody, yeah, yeah
Get involved
Everybody, yeah, yeah
Everybody right now
