Lyrics
[Verse 1]
What, what, what you got me charged with?
We're gonna have your charged with possession of cocaine
With intent to distribute
Man, I ain't sold that, man, that man, why is you doin' that, man?
[Verse 2]
The rhymes I design are truly unrefined
Like diamonds with a speck of blood, dug up out the mine
Flows flood between the ears, right behind my eyes
Giving birth to the lines, soul search for the prize
I takes my time when deciding what to write
Like the S.A.T., while these other **** bite
Underrated and mostly hated but got a lot of fight
Like a player, play the background, fuck a spotlight
Night, night, I recite when I step up to this mic
Reputation trunk tight, like the husband on a wife
Stay sharp as broken glass, get busted on the smash
When your ass cross paths with this half of the 'Kast
[Verse 3]
It's bed time, tuck yourself at night
Can tell that you're terrified
Check my record, you will see that I'm verified
(Nobody want none) I terrorize (Don't nobody want none)
Now you're terrified
Nobody want 'em now (It's bed time) lazy but is done
[Verse 4]
Yeah, this where the second verse 'posed to go
I don't even think I need to hit y'all with another verse
But I, I think I just might
Because I like to destroy shit
[Verse 5]
There's no retreat and no surrender
Been ready for battle, General Patton's no beginner
I keep it all Madden, I call the plays that execute for the W
Leave the rest to you, destitute, now put that money up
Oh your conscience is nonsense
How you expect to get a little restitution with all this ghetto fly
Just snow, that's for toboggans, no won't be no pardons
Or bargains, three strikes, then yanked up like A-rod
Uh, with no apartments, got no home to runt to
You're snitching on yourself, and now your front door
They come through
Without a tap on your phone
They only thing they had to do was listen to the raps in your songs
[Verse 6]
Lights out, the time for nighty night's long overdue
This is the final countdown to your swan song, you are through
All wack MC's and posers, this is going out to you
(To you)
The boys will drop their jaws in awe 'cause here comes something new
Something new
Something new, something new
[Verse 7]
Straight out the plastic like a pack of puddings, no show
My **** yo can not see me, and that's fo' show, fo' do
Any kind of Cadillac, I go slow
When I'm smokin' on some that choco, no low, no mid
Top of the line pine, 'cause I blow big
Been round here for a while
Your mama like my style, and so do your kids
I know you love it, because a hater loves to hate
Boy you need me like a junkie need a razor blade and plate
I'm dope, ****
[Verse 8]
It's bed time, tuck yourself at night
Can tell that you're terrified
Check my record, you will see that I'm verified
(Dope ****, nobody want none) I terrorize
(Don't nobody want none) Now you're terrified
Nobody want 'em now (It's bed time) lazy but is done
Yeah
[Verse 9]
Lights out, the time for nighty night's long overdue
This is the final countdown to your swan song, you are through
All wack MC's and posers, this is going out to you
The boys will drop their jaws in awe 'cause here comes something new
Something new
Something new, something new
