Lyrics
Edo's a one man team, I never huddle with coach
I'm on some raw shit, y'all take the subtle approach
I break up the mic when I wake up tonight
If I'm beefin' in my sleep then I wake up and fight
I refuse to let these vultures insult my culture
I broke the mold and the sculpture
Went from kingdoms to the projects housin' kings
How do I make one word say a thousand thangs?
Spit more than a thousand slangs
Put skills to your thousand dollar chains
Kill you on the mic then pray over your remains
Elevated the game in the midst of all the chains
Got a list of all the names gettin' beat the hardest
By the featured artist who got dough but keep it modest
Watch my bench beat your starters, the ghetto taught us
To praise the black goddess, we flawless
Hot like June to August, come on
Be thankful for what you got
'Cause a hungry nigga's waitin' to take your spot
Don't think he won't scheme and plot
So you best be thankful for what you got
Next year you might not be hot
So you better be thankful for what you got
Yo, whether you make it or not, dog
You best be thankful for what you got
If you spit fire then God's a liar
The odds of dodgin' fire just got higher
What cause can you inspire? Rap sheets are prior
I keep it in the streets like tires and don't admire
Your material desires, the media suppliers
They biased, one minute they praise us then they crucify us
Haters, they don't apply theyself
They ain't hot enough to do a record by theyself, they need help
See, money don't make the man
You ain't gotta shake my hand or take a stand
High day after day, drunk night after night
What you gon' do after Mike?
Fight me, get sent to the afterlife
I battle niggas half the night, told them suckers pass the mic
Boots gotta have trees, sneakers gotta have stripes
I never lost focus and never lost sight of the mic
Be thankful for what you got
'Cause a hungry nigga's waitin' to take your spot
Don't think he won't scheme and plot
So you best be thankful for what you got
Next year you might not be hot
So you better be thankful for what you got
Yo, whether you make it or not, dog
You best be thankful for what you got
I silenced giants in a world of violence
The science to my triumphs is to switch around the lineups
Y'all take off with little ascension
Dogs that bark all the time get little attention
That little tension gets little mention
I'm hardcore and heart-wrenchin'
Build without benchin', time to start inchin'
Photo flash like a camera to slander your propaganda
Hit you in the head with the proper hammer
Livin' life wild and short, child support
Trials in courts, criminals and cohorts
I rhyme so sick the flow hurts
I'm runnin' a marathon, y'all take this shit in short spurts
In the club watchin' short skirts
'Cause this rap game comes with mad perks, I do whatever works
Tried not to get murked when I was doin' my dirt
Put out my own shit so I won't get jerked, nigga
Be thankful for what you got
'Cause a hungry nigga's waitin' to take your spot
Don't think he won't scheme and plot
So you best be thankful for what you got
Next year you might not be hot
So you better be thankful for what you got
Yo, whether you make it or not, dog
You best be thankful for what you got
