We came to pop in 

got ya ladies, draw dropping 

nobody can stop us, I was brought up in the projects 

and I got, tonz of haze from uptown 

we not trying to sell that shit, that's how we burn it down 

niggaz always drilling me, 'till they see my four pound 

bitches always feeling me, try to give me some head 

while I'm in the studio, try to make that bread 

not a contriet dude, or of with ya head 

yo, 1st Infantry and fed 

we gonna give you that gangsta music that hurts your ears 

but the fear in ya heart, when you see the gift 

we think big, A-L-C we get right

[Evidence] 

Yo, everytime I rest, I put it all on the line 

yo money never slept 

that's why I barely get blessed 

that's why I rarely go out, unless it's love at the club 

time is bread, that's what I'm about 

and all my peoples got cloud 

check the resum 

one step closer to goal everyday 

the game is to be sold not told 

I tropping heavingly, world connected got the livest crew 

we infinite, dropping gems but no clue 

[Chorus] 

[Alchemist] 

Every dollar I spend on wax , I turn it back into cash 

Jetting back to the lab, I'm getting back on my job 

I'm fully backed by the Mobb, I keep my back to the wall 

keep the blacks to my wall 

I'm trying to stack till I ball 

untill they cashing 'em all 

I wanna stack till this tall 

ain't gonna rap for to long 

gonna have to move on 

I'm gonna stash till I'm gone 

green grass on my longue 

fuck a bank account, I need extreme cash in my palm 

smoke blur in ya vision, 

you don't know who ya dissin' 

I don't learning no lesson 

I just hold my position 

I don't go with a pistol 

they just know I'm official 

shit, all I gotta do is start blowing a whistle 

my name is ringing 

my chain is swinging 

right now I'm speaking, but these beats are what I'm famous for fleaking 

[Twin Gambino] 

It's like rolling dice, we taking the bank tonight 

cut your face with a knife, now your scared for life 

all I want is ice, a car, a girl and a crib 

tired of doing biz, I just wanna live 

take care of my kids, fuck all that stress 

never wore a vest, only holding tecs 

[Chorus] 

[Evidence] 

We sold out every store in L.A. 

It's loyalty where I stay, but ain't promised today 

I keep my headlights on for 9-1-1 

and on July 4th I might shoot one at the sun 

independent regardless of the fact I'm a signed artist 

fuck a deal it matters who comes hardest 

when I entertain, It's like I took Sedrick for his name 

hunger is just a different form of pain 

I'm ready to eat, ready to hear my name spread on the street 

to the point where I don't talk, my trackrecord speaks 

to the point where I do a joint, that night it leaks 

to the point where Alchemist is a hundred grand a week 

bringing the heat, so clear you understand me 

raise the stakes, up the antique 

the better place, yo we land on winds 

Dilated, Evidence, Alchemist, Big Twins 

- Check it out 

[Chorus]
