Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yo, B, turn your speakers up, money
Yo, God, yo, God?
Yo, I got made skills
Isn't that money?
[Verse 2]
New York, New York, big city of dreams
And everything in New York ain't always what it seems
Ya might get fooled if you come from out of town
But I'm down by law and I'm from the Dogg Pound
[Verse 3]
It's the incredible, the lyrical, you can't be me
Like Niece, to see me is gonna take a miracle
I'm drivin' mothafuckas hysterical
With a touch of this twister, stylistic mixture
What I create pulsates, there is no escape
Annihilate your mental mind state
Dre labels my vocabulary abusive
I packs more knowledge than Confucius, I'm deadly
Induce you like Medusa with thoughts to shed
And **** throughout this hemisphere, far and near
Prepare, catch me chillin' like the winter
Up against the number contender as I enter
'Cause I gets heated like friction
Motherfuck your whole jurisdiction
React, this fact, not fiction
Telepathic addiction to this homicidal recital
Dangerous and vital to all my rivals
Suicidal, brainwaves conveys
To the average mothafuckas minds these days
I'm all ready to put work in
Take ten steps and turn to shoot the first **** smirkin'
Give a fuck, what's your name? What you claim?
Or why you came? Mothafucka, don't explain
Simply, don't tempt me 'cause I'm simply
Layin' hoes likes empty, the invincible emcee, boy
[Verse 4]
New York, New York, big city of dreams
And everything in New York ain't always what it seems
Ya might get fooled if you come from out of town
But I'm down by law and I'm from the Dogg Pound
[Verse 5]
Too much, I serve too many people too much
It's too much, I serve too many people
And when I finish servin', ain't gon' be no sequel
[Verse 6]
New York, New York, big city of dreams
And everything in New York ain't always what it seems
Ya might get fooled if you come from out of town
But I'm down by law and I'm from the Dogg Pound
[Verse 7]
Too much, I serve too many people too much
Too much, I serve too many people
And when I finish servin', ain't gon' be no sequel
[Verse 8]
Gimme a couple Gs for every emcee
I knocked to his knees, verbally useless
Oh, you got the juice? I squeeze you juiceless
The barbaric, versatile, you're no kin to me
So how the fuck you inherit my style?
Now, out the clear blue sky, I can't deny
Not a day goes by don't get high, don't ask why
Tonight's the night for me to rip microphones
Into bits and pieces, lyrical telekinesis
Gets me into verbally vindictive
Violent vocabulary bobs to existence
Catch me in the pitch black path
I sit and let the sick thoughts pass
Through my mental till I hear a instrumental
And detrimental verbals get to spittin'
The highest in intellect, try connectin' with the written
Now they faced with the forbidden, vocally chosen
To explore new terrain then remain unseen throughout the war
Dips like a low-low with my verbal fo-fo
The cocoa complexion emcee with the slow flow
Fo' sho', I takes it to you from the do'
Mothafucka, mentally I go hardco'
I disconnect ya, Kurupta, emcee to vocally void
Ya whole molecular structure
Catastrophic, mystic as Mxyzptlk
Hittin' emcees like picks the deadliest lyricists
[Verse 9]
New York, New York, big city of dreams
And everything in New York ain't always what it seems
Ya might get fooled if you come from out of town
But I'm down by law and I'm from the Dogg Pound
[Verse 10]
Too much, I serve too many people too much
It's too much, I serve too many people
And when I finish servin', ain't gon' be no sequel
[Verse 11]
New York, New York, big city of dreams
And everything in New York ain't always what it seems
Ya might get fooled if you come from out of town
But I'm down by law and I'm from the Dogg Pound
[Verse 12]
Too much, I serve too many people too much
Too much, I serve too many people
And when I finish servin', ain't gon' be no sequel
[Verse 13]
We live, tonight I serve two thousand emcees
We live 'cause can't none fuck with the DP G's
We live, baby, because tonight I serve two thousand emcees
We live, baby, none can fuck with the DP G's
[Verse 14]
A-B-C D-P-G-C
Baby, baby
A-B-C D-P-G-C
Baby, baby
[Verse 15]
Everyday, I bust rhymes and recite
In ways that make emcees stop in daylight
I'm the deadliest emcee you wanna see on the streets
Invincibility is what makes me complete, compete
Nah, you can't even fade me
I fuck you, your mama, your auntie, and your lady
