  • Yeah, word
    Got some Remy Martin and some good-ass cigars, check it out

    Ayo, late night, candlelight, fiend with diesel in his needle
    Queensbridge leader, no equal
    I come from the Wheel of Ezekiel
    To pop thousand-dollar bottles of scotch, smoke pot and heal the people
    Any rebuttal to what I utter get box-cuttered
    Count how many bad honeys I slut, it's a high number
    Name a nigga under the same sky that I'm under
    Who gets money, remain fly, yeah, I wonder
    Eyes flutter, it's love when Nas pops up
    Stars get starstruck, panties start drippin'
    The ways of Carlito, blaze, torpedo cigars
    Drop Rolls, hoes drop clothes
    Louis the XIII, freaks, women nice size
    I ride like Porsches, thick, brown and gorgeous
    It ain't my fault, semiautomatic weapons I brought
    The world crazy, I'm rich and I'm girl-crazy
    Dick ‘em, convince ‘em all to praise me
    They ideology is confusion, I lose ‘em
    Fellates me, who hate me? My gun off safety
    Since the Tunnel and Skate Key, my jewelry in HD

    Silent rage, pristine in my vintage shades
    I'm not in the winters of my life or the beginning stage, I am the dragon
    Maserati, pumpin' Biggie, the great legend
    Blastin', I'm after the actress who played Faith Evans
    My little Jackie Onassis, dig?
    I'm so high, I never land like Mike Jackson's crib
    Vest on, .45 still crack ya rib sacrilege
    Talk trash about the nasty kid
    Past nasty now, I'm gross and repulsive, talk money
    Is you jokin', cash everywhere, in my bank, in the sofa
    In the walls, in the cars, in my wallet, in my pocket
    On the floors, ceilings, the safe, bitch, I got all you envy
    But don't offend, I'm skinny, but still I'm too big for a Bentley
    You are your car, what could represent me
    Too Godly to be a Bugatti, you honestly
    Must design me somethin' Tommy Mottonic from Queens had before the '90s
    Drug dealer call, rush to the bar
    Move, niggas, we don't give a fuck who you are
    Black card heavy like a magnet, in my stitched denims
    Pretty women see them them saggin', bet a hundred stacks
    Niggas'll run it back just havin' fun
    I ain't even begun to black, light another blunt in fact

    (Nasty) Yeah, nasty kid

    For the hustlers, thick as yellow bitches for the suck of it
    Got a bunch of niggas in prison braggin'
    Saying it was Nas I used to hustle with
    I display fashions while my lungs engage hashish, guns on my waist past his
    Since I'm cakin' up, put funds in my safe, laughin'
    And joining the blunt passin' you niggas was straight assin'

    Excuse the vulgarity, I'm still not fully adjusted
    Or used to the new fans hearin' me spit rapidly
    I never see the whips niggas be claimin' they drivin'
    I guess entertainment means blatantly lyin'
    Fake it 'til you make it, I've driven those toys
    Been in the wars, in the streets, cops kickin' in doors
    For my deen niggas, your flow cheap as limousine liquor
    I'm no fake rap CD listener

    Sit back and roll a mean swisher
    For my Gs, tell these clowns make room for the king, nigga Writer/s: NASIR JONES, SALAAM REMI
