Lion (feat. Method Man, Redman & Shyheim)

Got these rappers out here lying' bout the truth

Even though his family black thought he was lying' bout his roots

Had these two-faced gangsters out here lying' bout the truth

If this the stairway to heaven leave em lying on the stoop

Tony Stark's in this element got iron in my group

Some people dyin' it's evident I'm ironing my suit

Y'all got gasoline drawers and fire in your boots

I'm firin' squad fire I say fire and they shoot

You slide on raw tires just retire and regroup

If the troops are not inspired my requirements recruit

To my environment's youth I'm a general salute

Y'all chasin' the clout chasers that's a trivial pursuit

I'm the type to pay attention and recoup and any payment from pagans who with satan I rebuke

I'm the proof that hit him like a fact you can't refute

Don't be a lion in the jungle or be lying

In the booth

I'm Gucci in my hood I don't need it on the belt

I aced every card that was dealt

My food for thought you can't yelp

Yo look in the mirror with your middle finger bruh and go fuck yourself

Premium in a tank when a rapper wanna play

My pen fully loaded I ain't never shootin blanks

And I can laugh with you but my money I'm serious

I learned a lot in my school cafeteria I don't do toe-for-toe eye-to-eye

My little bra fuck you up I ain't gon' lie

And just when you're out of breath

Fighting' off the ropes I jump in the ring like you said you unspoked

That's why I mind biz and work smarter My attitude don't give a fuck avoid drama

So meet your new barber

I'm shapin' you up I'm grooming you like you wanna get the money you want

Fuck you losers street disciple hold the rifle

Prophesy hood visionary paint the trifle

Life's a deadly game moving pieces dodging nefarious

Penning ghetto scriptures my mind frame precarious

From the blocks where the cops watch we plot ducking the narcos

Jungle where the humble rumble lions and pharaohs

learned from them corners the dope tales the horrors

Survival of the fittest destiny's author never borrow

Glimpse the mind of a genius ink bleeds through the pages

Never cage the spirit my thoughts roam through the ages

This is God's design every rhyme a holy lecture

Crafted from the essence divine architecture

Came from nothing but know I'm something they can't touch

LA Kings move in silence never doing too much

My pen sharp cut through the dark like a knife

Mind made up can't be swayed this the code of my life

I put these **** to sleep in this industry

Rap vigorously fearlessly

And I take my artistry seriously block to block

Building stocks we stacking knots drop the top

Fuck the cops middle finger in the air yeah that's for Pac

The beam's all red man we call it Doc stop the press

We ain't doing no interviews we bad news

And cold like igloos it's written in the ink

That's a Wu Tang tattoo can I get it Whoo

You know how we do I was raised by the gladiators

Wanted to be like the older Gods not the Power Rangers

I know math like a calculator power like a generator

You trash for incinerators imitator

I keep it fresher than a General Electric refrigerator

I'll see you later alligator

Don't be a lion in the jungle be a lion in the zoo

Cuz a lion in the jungle always get shot first

BOOM don't be a lion in the jungle be a lion in the zoo
