[Intro: Prodigy]
Yeah
Uh
Yeah
Uh
[Verse 1: Tek]
I'm blessed and I'm highly favored, gotta thank God (God)
Not laid up, bullet in my brain large (Large)
Let the record show I survived a couple wars (A couple wars)
Pops funeral, read the book of Vandross (That's for my father)
First time way outta town, early '90s
Memorial day, VA, wild grimy (Goddamn)
Kilos and O's, money and hoes
Changed the game, turned friends into foes (Friends into foes)
Block-huggin' n***as know we got the bottles up (We got the bottles up)
Mink drag, brought it just to fuck the bottom up (Just to fuck the bottom up)
Solid in the streets, fly akh, head high (Fly akh, head high)
From B-Stuy just like the big guy (Baby, baby)
'80s live, MB5
Can't compare to a legend, your shoes ain't my size (No)
Uh, LV trainer for the feet, NC for the weak
Move wild on the beat like, uh
[Interlude: Prodigy & General Steele]
Yeah
Uh
Yeah
Yeah
[Verse 2: General Steele]
Every effort reflect excellence (Excellence)
Respect elegance, pure essence, no decadence (No decadence)
Supreme regimen, work ethic, perfectionist (Uh-huh)
God body, hard body, no estrogen (That's right)
I'm not a thespian, I don't act no role play (No)
The Audi 8, got the raw yay in the hallway (Come get it)
Shout out to Broadway, Brick City, my clique gritty (Yountie, whatup?)
I'll sin for a paradise, the fifth with me (Peace to the gods)
Power refinement, gods in alignment (Uh-huh)
These bars are firin', just a product of my environment
Come fuck with me, don't fuck with me, got Buck with me
Get bucks with me or buck-fiftied, the cuts grizzly
Their pubs itchin', we stop pitchin', it's propane
Played no games, this dope potent as cocaine
Superb vocalist, so finesse what the focus is (Uh)
No rentin' what we invented, n***a, this ownership (This ownership)
[Interlude: Prodigy]
Yeah, we not done, in fact, we just begun
This is how we give it up for the streets
Yeah
Yeah, yeah, ayo
[Verse 3: Prodigy]
Bottom line, I shine stronger
Faster, longer, this is hardcore
What you doin' is more of a light FM
My shit is powerful, take it easy with this
This is not costumed, this act of viligance
Pure militance, one thousand percent raw out of Queensbridge
My borough the most thorough
Have you shook like you naked in thirty below zero
They say, "Tone it down some"
I turn it up, whatever happened to the real? (To the real)
But we not done, in fact, we just begun
This is how I give it up for the streets, this is murder
Nice and neat on the beat for the hood
This is project theme music (Theme music)
[Outro: Prodigy]
Alright
Yeah
Uh
Yeah
Yeah
Uh
Yeah
