Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yeah, yeah, one more time
'70s shit, got the lean
Shit is leanin', it's to the left
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's just leanin', dribblin', like we gave it a bag of doujie
Or a bag of that Tango and Cash
It's just leanin' and shit, '70s, Lord Tariq, yo
[Verse 2]
Yo, ay, yo, I been through many places
Done many things, seen the eyes of many faces
From New York to Texas to the places I'll go next, it's
Not a racist or sexist and the best is The Lord, nonetheless, it's Gunz
Nothing less than a Lexus, bubble-eye with VVSs
Troubled minds and troubled times
Stacks, I'm tryna double mine, I'm in a six with double dimes
And a couple of 9s, me and Trax back to back
Circle the block a couple of times and we
Searchin' for this **** that try
I'm bubblin' mine, if we don't get him now
Then we will in due time
I bust enough shots to kill him two times
I do crimes, I get caught then my mind's definin' my son's rhymes
'Cause my thoughts stay runnin' like thugs from one time
I been through it under the influence, bustin' off and runnin' into it
See me? Say, "He didn't do it"
Put the 9 to his mind and blew it
'Cause sometimes I lose it, gimme a gun and I'll abuse it
Fuckin' with my family, my bitch, my money or my music
Makin' killers say, "He's too sick when he do shit"
But I'm on some new shit and it's too late, the fuse lit
I treat my 9 like a new bitch and the shit do kick
[Verse 3]
I'm on the Cross Bronx with Fat Joe and my man
On the east side of town with a blunt in my hand
Soundview, Monroe, Castle Hill, Bronxdale, Rosedale, Academy
Lafayette, Cozy
I'm on the Cross Bronx with Fat Joe and my man
On the east side of town with a blunt in my hand
Commonwealth, Theriot, White Plains, Randew, Olmstead
Boynton, Colgate, Watson
[Verse 4]
Play rap loud, politickin' business with the crack crowd
Fact file, funny how I never seen a rat smile
My last trial's one of the reasons why I rap now
But still could plow any **** actin' irrational
Fuckin' with me's worse than duckin' police
After puffin' some trees I'll probably be abductin' your niece
Murderin' beats since the days of permanent crease
Been around the block, seen grams converted to keys
Ah, Cartagena breaks hearts in Argentina
My missus slugs to love me, my wife act like Anita
Terror Squad'll die for the cause even if it means
Blowin' up things and takin' over City Hall
My shit is raw, straight from the Panama shores
If the feds can't catch me then they make up a law
Can't take it no more, **** is fake to the core
My state pen friends'll leave you broken, negative N.O.R.E.
Bet it all on the Terror Squad Clique from Forest
Real Bronx **** that's heartless and spark shit
Regardless, **** shouldn't've tried that shit
That's why motherfuckers gotta die like this
[Verse 5]
I'm on the Cross Bronx with Gunz, my man
On the south side of town with a brick in my hand
Forest, Melrose, McKinley, The Boulevard, Washington
Paterson, Broadland
I'm on the Cross Bronx with Gunz, my man
On the south side of town with a brick in my hand
Brook Ave, Cypress, Hunts Point, St. Charles, Littleville
Trinity, Creston, Walton
[Verse 6]
Yo, I had a dream that a team had a scheme
Keepin' the beam on my head like a infrared, he's dead
But I redeem, now I'm back, ****, it's on, ****
Run, ****, Joe, ****, Pun, ****, Lord, ****, Gunz, motherfuckers
Ain't really knowin', I'm really goin'
And feelin' I'm showin' that my main objective
Is Benzes, Lexuses, cop Rolexeses, get bigger than Texases
So fierce, bitches, they be callin' me Exorcist
Far from a devil, I'm God, I mean I'm Gunz
And I shine like sun, rhyme like none
Find my gun, got beef with this **** with hits and shit
Chips and shit, run around here switchin' shit
Tellin' people, "Don't play that, you gotta play this"
Tellin' Screw, "You ain't sayin' that, you gotta say this"
You can't wear that, you gotta wear this
Well, hear this, I go in your chest and leave you earless
Fearless, the only thing between us if you stop my cream
Is a Glock 19, and I'ma pop like steam
Tryna stop me and mine from eatin', you need a doctor with a hundred
Gauze pads, ****, to stop you from leakin'
And a prayer from the deacon as you weaken
And words from the Funkmaster Flex
Dog shouldn't've been reachin', there's only one gun
For what it's worth, that's me, that's it, bury your shit
Right in the earth
[Verse 7]
I'm on the Cross Bronx with Big Pun and my man
On the west side of town with a gun in my hand
West 74, Vice Ave, Bryant, Longfellow, Ho' Ave
Platona Park, Boston Road, Prospect
I'm on the Cross Bronx with Big Pun and my man
On the west side of town with a gun in my hand
Lambert, Treemont, Concourse, Jerome Ave, 3rd Ave
Ogden, Webster, Simpson, uh
[Verse 8]
Yo, we the Bronx Avengers, partners in these pelon adventures
We them monster **** in your dreams
I be stompin' you senseless so be conscientious
If you march against us I'ma call me gentes
And you non-descriptors gonna have to face the consequences
We large percenters and you small change
Hittin' **** long range, chrome gauge, leavin' ****
John Blaze, crime pays if you nice with yours
The Bronx is where you fight for yours
Ice across, slice cigars, light cigars all day
Wildin', freestylin' in the hallway, Broadway ain't got more drama
Than Watson off a card game
This ain't the old days, shorties is bustin', ain't no fuckin' jokin'
Some **** called me a German, I had to bust him open
My brothers holdin' me down with heavy artillery
Chevys and willies be chillin' in front of every facility
Joey from Trinity so he raps Forest, you could save the best for us
But you still better place your bets on us
Bronx, baby, where the best get blown, my restin' zone
Come on, ****, test your throne
I'm blessed with chrome, so leave your vest at home
I don't aim for the chest, bitch, strictly necks and domes
[Verse 9]
I'm on the Cross Bronx with all three of my mans
Runnin' up in your spot with the MAC in my hand
Pure Energy, Checkmate, Blue Thunder, Obsession
Pulp Fiction, Purple Rain, Punisher, Southside
I'm on the Cross Bronx with all three of my mans
Runnin' up in the spot with the MAC in my hand
ATL, LA, Chicago, Detroit, DC, Carolinas, Boston, NY
