[00:00.00] 作曲 : J. Rawls, Sanders
[00:09.75]If hip hop was a crime, I'd be a felon, sellin
[00:12.84]To all the conscious **** addicts, tragic, gotta have it
[00:23.43]Get no static, rhymes get ripped automatic
[00:30.78]Spray you from your feet to your cabbage
[00:31.74]Lyrically hit you with the spiritual, infrared won't miss
[00:33.72]Police lookin for the Catalyst
[00:34.74]Hah, usually on the blocks in your neighborhood
[00:36.63]When the flavor's good clientele's humunguous
[00:38.19]Pittsburgh, Columbus
[00:39.51]And all the other cities in the USA
[00:40.59]Networkin, soon to be worldwide for certain
[00:42.15]I know it's hurtin, competition creatin envy
[00:43.47]Sure they wanna end me when they see me in a Benzi
[00:47.94]Throw salt in my game, in my face act friendly
[00:59.40]That's why I play em close till they ass get ghost
[01:03.54]Ain't no love lost here, crampin my poster'
[01:05.16]This game is cutthroat, so I'ma aim at the utmost
[01:08.64]Spot, not knowing if I'm gonna get caught
[01:10.50]Be up in heaven, openin for Big and Tupac
[01:12.60]But that's the nature of it, some live, some kick the bucket
[01:25.05]I'd be a damn fool not to love it
[01:26.37]Right?
[01:26.67][CHORUS x2]
[01:28.02]Imagine that, if hip hop was a crime
[01:30.18]Would you stick and move, would you sell dimes?
[01:32.31]Or would you switch sides and play the role of po nine
[01:34.50]Blockin me from the go line
[01:36.36]Preventin me from gettin mine
[01:41.28][J. Sands]
[01:42.48]Everything is kosher, slayin punk MC's with my toaster
[01:46.62]Itchy finger on trigger got my rep bigger
[01:49.56]You should see em shiver knowin down deep I deliver
[01:51.87]Bulls eye, direct hit with hollow tip lyric
[01:55.62]Like the bully of the block all the kids fear it
[01:57.09]J. Sands is untouchable, how you hear it
[01:59.19]Echo wind through the hallways where I be all days
[02:00.57]Hustlin, ain't no small plate cause ****** always
[02:01.77]Wanna plot against the local cat with props
[02:03.42]Makin it harder to set up my shop upon the block
[02:06.57]Like a martyr I be in this war until I drop
[02:09.09]But if it ain't the haters it's the goddamn cops
[02:10.26]Stressin me, just so they can get some cream off the top
[02:11.88]Testin me, so now I gotta scheme, call the team
[02:14.04]Dante, [Name], J. Rawls and Raheem
[02:15.06]The ill syndicate, quick to light up the scene
[02:16.92]No prints, squeaky clean, toss the heat in the stream
[02:18.63]Rendez-vous somewhere serene around 12:15
[02:20.97]See, if you don't hold it down, no one will hold it for ya
[02:28.50]So be sure to have a alibi plus a good lawyer
[02:31.08][CHORUS x2]
