Lyrics

This album right here, this is the yin and the yang So you gon' hear a lot of different things on it You gon' hear a lot of profanity You might hear a lot of, um, a lot of love, a lot of hate You know what I'm sayin', 'cause it's like, come on I got enemies, I got frenemies, and those that pretend to be I'm a side hill That's the grits The grits The barracks, baby, word up Verrazano Bridge, yo, yo I give a speech like Martin Luther King Let freedom ring, forget a gold ring It's a black thing Holdin' me locked up, where brothers be gettin' oxed up Takin' life for granted Most of us abandoned How I know you not a clone? Beef in the home Africans, protect black Americans Dominicans, war with the Puerto Ricans Deep in the street, thugs carryin' heat Infest the projects, surrounded with gates Middle class families are movin' upstate While the younger generation sellin' cake Tryin' to imitate mixtapes It's all vinyl, big locks on the Verrazano Confined, BB conduct, on some King Tut Poverty struck, I seen it like an empty U-Haul truck My cup runneth over, stressed out whenever I'm sober This cold world got my girl scammed Fight on the sand, I'm allergic to hands Weak minds all aboard I see devils in the eyes of camcord And my reward is to let y'all know I'm goin' out like P.L.O. whenever I go, uh The grits The grits I start the slaughterin', make all eyes start waterin' I know a 800 number, you can get your coffin, start orderin' The metamorphosis of my skill is sure to bring Overcome any king, fakin' and counterfeit, money in the bank I do a sting with two nines under my sling Anybody you bring, still won't do a goddamn thing You ain't nothin' but a onion in the ring I floss rhymes, I lost rhymes I got it like that, y'all bitch niggas, I toss time I got rhymes that'll still rock you, cats that'll spot you Told you I chill, lay off of shit, still shot you The only thing I'm unable to do is do what I got to Lookin' hostile, Brooklyn apostle, lyrical gospel Still fortunate to scorchin' shit, payin' for the cost of it Your whole style remains wack, I know it's awful, kid The grits The grits The grits The grits Yo, I play the back like back in the days Give thanks and praise, watch the frisk raise Reunite, J-Bird teach the upright I forget the fake MCs, my songs the Bible Survival in the land of lost land No radio play, the Pillagers banned Like a foreigner don't understand Y'all some fat cats, eat the pig We make real shit from digs Hit you up with the packages of facts on tracks Y'all talk, but that's put that back We dealin' in the orphanage, ways to pass your image I'm a chemist, a jeweled dentist Treat my heritance like friendship I be exit, I rock a gold necklace and restless It's always hectic, Staten Island shit Bad habit shit, made me twisted 120 District shit, Pillagers be the senate Throw darts like Masons, garment Renaissance Patriarchs, hold the blood like tampons BB conduct, put your fist up No more struggles, hundred dollar for the Hen-dog Two hundred for the bubbles, less troubles Pill age, push over, turn rappers off of the stage It's beef whenever we engage Buck, buck, buck, buck, buck, buck The grits The grits The grits The grits The grits
