Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Respectfully
Bucket on low like Erick and Parrish
Closed casket flow, all you **** get deaded
They don't give you one single rose while you can smell it
So I pick from my own garden
Wanna go out in my garden like Godfather
Grandkids and a rottweiler got over the block trauma
So what you sayin' ****? You gots to chill
Thinkin' you the truth, really you not for real
Back to back wit' it, the hardest shit of the year (Remix)
[Verse 2]
EPMD, we back in business
Ain't nobody fuckin' with us, come to your senses
P is the second coming of God, something to witness
Piece of shit fly on your head like Mike Pence's
We in the trenches
I'm mad, better yet I'm on a rampage
My people can't even get minimum wage
Fuck a stimulus
Give me some interest
Give me a loan
Give me a home
Get me that land you owe me, so I can roam
So when you trespass, blaow, one in your dome
Best wishes, ghost 'em like he Tommy
Ain't worried 'bout nothing 'cause Hit Squad behind me
[Chorus]
EPMD, we back in business
I visualize what is it, not what it isn't
We at the mafia table next to the kitchen
Eatin' Michelin Star, countin' a million
[Verse 3]
Done
I let it go for the family, meetings in COTE, Miami
Them wine bottles on Maggie, extra large
Sign up for my master class, Escobar
Feet up at Met Stadium at my restaurant
Tied in from AZ to Dave East, you know my thoughts get crazy
My teachers they couldn't grade me, I know some Haitians in Dade County
Got choppas in Haiti, she booked a flight to Colombia
Made her body amazing, just to post it on Tumblr
This that fuck up the summer shit, I don't care what you comin' with
Me and Hit-Boy running shit
Big gold, rope chains, but they flooded now (Yeah)
Pull up with the ghost like a haunted house
Shit gettin' scary, blood on my hands like Carrie
Might walk through a cemetery to see where hip hop is buried
I said it was dead, but it faked its death like Machiavelli
You see letters in red splatter, look like sauce on spaghetti
(Yeah, ready?)
[Verse 4]
See, EPMD, we're back in business
Living in cramped conditions, we'll give you ammunition
Stock those shelves, I got those shells like Taco Bell and I'm not gon' fail
I got no L's like Christmas
You don't wanna make the claws come out (Nah)
Y'all should call yourselves Santa (Why?)
'Cause none of y'all are real (Nah)
Not a single one (Like what?)
Like a dollar bill
It's like your bitch in appellate court, she's on a pill
We got a bond and she'll
Never bail on me, not even outta jail
EPMD, but me, I gots no chill
Just a 'lotta skrill
Lady, my paper's so crazy
I just tossed a mill' out the window of my 'mobile on the fuckin' freeway on my way here
Like Rudolph and his homies when they're pullin' the sleigh, yeah
That's a lot of bucks flyin' when I'm making it rain, dear
Green on me, but no weed, shorty, just these, darling
A pocket full of pills, some are Tylenol 3's, probably 2 or 3 molly
So some are E which reminds me of rap summary, mami
My theme song, me and Pete, always use to play that shit on repeat all day
So please call me Big Daddy
Plus, I got the Kane and lean on me (Yeah)
MC's, I'm eating you B-I-T-C-H-E-S like tortilla chips
Me, I'm free of debt, yeah, green is on Chia Pet
This is the effects of my old neighborhood
Misery index, poverty at its peak, OCD and PSTD, I guess
R.I.P. out to DMX, Stezo, E and Nipsey, Ecstasy and Prince Markie Dee, MF Doom
I hit 50 via text told him that I love him 'cause I don't even know when I'ma see 'em next
Tomorrow could be your death (Bring that beat)
Yeah, and this shit ain't for the faint 'cause the brain's illa trained
Kill the danger, deranged and I drank all the Dayquil, I blank on the paper
Then wait till the page fill up, hate spiller, shameful the strength of a pain pill or tranq'
I just pray for the day when I'm able to say that I'm placed with the greats
And my name's with the Kane's and the Waynes and the Jay's, and the Dre's, and the Ye's and the Drake's
And the J-Dilla's, Jada's, Cool J's and the Ra's
And amazing as Nas is and praise to the Gods of this
Shout to the golden age of hip hop and the name of this song is-
[Chorus]
EPMD, we back in business
I visualize what is it not what is isn't
We at the mafia table next to the kitchen
Eatin' Michelin Star, countin' a million
