Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Nighttime, bust it
This is dedication to my whole crew
Those that's true, they all know who
This is dedication to my real crew
They all know who, the ones that's true
Dedication to my whole crew
Goin' back a couple years
Before the tears and the fame, bust it
[Verse 2]
Do you got a court or family? Me neither
G's freeze, broke, splittin' one slice of pizza
Medina never seen a crew as fly, uh, bumpin'
Sayin' somethin' fresh, fuckin' labels keep frontin'
Ain't nothin', we bouts to make it, take it if we gotta
Now I got a daughter, do or die time, writin' rhymes on the rug
For to or whom it's all love, we don't bug
[Verse 3]
Same time Terrell caught a slug
I sew time, muscle chime in the city
Ain't got dimes for the week, no pity
Shitty ass rap need a firm gun clap
Revolution time, I'm cool like that
[Verse 4]
Go pop, I would never act a fool like that
I'm a panther, to a triple six, I'm cancer
Blow up time, magazines, TV
Mad shows, flows, airplanes overseas
Cash on point but I'm still on the D
Now I fell a nell with a flower
Never let a blossom, love, I want some, she got some
Make life, same time take life
Now it's gone but the shit goes on
Comrade click, memories stand strong
[Verse 5]
My joint go un-peeped for the brains I balled
I live in eternal hell for this pain I caused
Yes, yes, y'all, it's true, we got the Grammy
Blast, blast fool with my pound chrome jammy
Media clowns never did understand this
Essential ghetto slick as meadow
Me and C know that's the love one forever
Individual or together
[Verse 6]
My brother Sulaiman, knowledge be Dash, Dave and Mac
Fool, I die for the **** in my clique
Now I deal truth so I'm straight bullet proof
Then he got love, give me eternal youth
Maya Angelou, do what you got to
Yeah, baby, I catch you when we get there
Tell me mama, 'cause the kid's so legit
We goin' to the essence for some fly ass shit
Reach in, blow out, comb, that's how we do it
We goin' to the essence for some fly ass shit
Sure you right, uh
[Verse 7]
This a dedication to my whole crew
The ones that's true, we all know who
Dedication to my whole crew
We all know who, the ones that's true
Dedication to my whole fuckin' crew
We all know who, the ones that's true
Dedication to my whole crew
The ones that's true, I catch you
