Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tell the cops don't read into it
Them days of slangin' yay been finished
Them days have been done ended
So far gone them days that I'm offended
Snitches can't speak my name till they get winded
Can't you tell there's been a switch made?
Now fellas decide that they wanna run and tell like in the fifth grade
But I'm too gone, young'n be clear
Even when you see me, I am not really there
And I ain't play fair with my eye on the enemy
Huggin' the block just me and my mini-me
Did it and lived it, grinded here
Cops feelin' where my crouch at, find it, yeah
Not only was I in the game, I was gifted in it
Served food to the fiends and we called 'em dinners
Put the raw with the fake out, mixed it in it
Can't explain the cat's hustle, guess it just was in us, Malicious
[Verse 2]
If you got the turf crackin' and ya money's stackin', ya
Quarterbackin', quarterbackin'
Leader of the squad and you're the team captain
Quarterbackin', quarterbackin'
Gotta little change and ya drivin' a range
Quarterbackin', quarterbackin'
If ya sound system bangs, and ya pushin' them thangs
Quarterbackin', quarterbackin'
[Verse 3]
Might not know what I'm talkin' about
If you ain't never lived it, or seen it or done it
Seen fiends vomit, green stuff I had to clean it up with Comet
Mean stuff, so many deaths my streets is haunted
Believe us, you should've seen us like Wile E. Coyote, man, super genius
Against all odds like Serena and Venus
I only had a couple jobs in my life, but not too many thought I was grown
Who would've thought I'd sell my skill for a microphone
And be rappin' about it up in the song, slidin' on some chrome
It's long money I earn, I'm bald headed, but I used to have a lord Jesus perm
When my name was Earl before the rap game
Runnin' from secret squirrel, I had my own thang
Raised by wolves, hyenas, and barracudas, gorillas and bulls
[Verse 4]
If you got the turf crackin' and ya money's stackin', ya
Quarterbackin', quarterbackin'
Leader of the squad and you're the team captain
Quarterbackin', quarterbackin'
Gotta little change and ya drivin' a range
Quarterbackin', quarterbackin'
If ya sound system bangs, and ya pushin' them thangs
Quarterbackin', quarterbackin'
[Verse 5]
I play the field like Vick from end-zone to end-zone
Serve that ish like snowcones in the hood
Entrenched in the gutter, I was lost to the good
'Cause I make the gat stutta like a OG should
Mamas lookin, so mistookin'
Nights in the kitchen thought I'd never finish cookin'
Way before pay for this that I'm mouthin'
19 years young, upward of 80 thousand
Trust me, young'n, Pusha was never browsin' for nothin' section 8 housin'
I'm stompin' through like King Kong claimin' his home, his jungle
Mumblers beware the hood hate singers
I connect, block the corner like Jenga, fall never, you seen 'em
Posted in your hood leanin' fiends like the Tower of Pisa
Damn he's good
[Verse 6]
If you got the turf crackin' and ya money's stackin', ya
Quarterbackin', quarterbackin'
Leader of the squad and you're the team captain
Quarterbackin', quarterbackin'
Gotta little change and ya drivin' a range
Quarterbackin', quarterbackin'
If ya sound system bangs, and ya pushin' them thangs
Quarterbackin', quarterbackin'
[Verse 7]
If you got the turf crackin' and ya money's stackin', ya
Quarterbackin', quarterbackin'
Leader of the squad and you're the team captain
Quarterbackin', quarterbackin'
Gotta little change and ya drivin' a range
Quarterbackin', quarterbackin'
If ya sound system bangs, and ya pushin' them thangs
Quarterbackin', quarterbackin'
