[Nas samples] (Hook) \"You know it's like that, you never get the mic back I got it hemmed, When I...When I...attack There ain't a army that could strike back\"
[Nature] Ayo, on hot summer days I sit under AC Slow mo, bumping Jo-Jo KC Life shit be the theme cut, clean cut image When me and Ali teamed up you can't fuck with us Fuck niggas if they can't accept it Under paid need to check in the mail every twenty days Watching the funny ways of them record execs (executives) Get em hog tied and thrown in the trunk for a long ride Never let a wrong slide, two wrongs don't make a right Fuck your whole cassette, two songs don't make you tight Need at least eight or nine of them, possibly ten Stay rewinding em, they pop go then you cop one again It don't stop until your pay checks gone Bootleggers in the street wait for Nat's next song I stay warm, until the day that I decide to cool off Who lost?, we be the hottest muthafuckas out of New York

[Ali Vegas] Ayo, I kick poetic scriptures Fake willies get Mote off bitches I throw up at yo sister's on my quest for riches Put some lead through snitches I'm from the same home the Giants, Yankees, Mets, and Knicks is Still surviving the block, putting pies in the pot Nature still fighting with cops Got real niggas that'll gag your wife with a sock Get your little mans sliced with an ox Risk life in the box, just to get near the ice on your watch Stay with cool intentions, fuck trials and school suspensions Only listen to rap if the jewels ain't mentioned They know my pen is flawless like my women Gorgeous Kim's in George Prince Wolves stay with chrome four-fifths I rap professionally now Commentators ask the specialist how... Long it took before perfecting my style Even with a deal I got more bills than Destiny's Child Y'all know it's like that, so fight back I'm reckless and wild
