This is for my nigga Dumb and blindThey say a record ain't nothin' if it's not touchin', grippin' Draw you in close and make you wanna listen to it And if you real ill at makin' music The listna gonna feel like he living through it That's how my nigga do itI met slacks back in like ninety-one rappin' We went to Millersville to get away from gun clappin' It ain't last, I be in class dreaming 'bout Fifty-thousand fans up in the stands Screaming outEncore, yo I'm heading back to Philly Nigga you rollin' with me? I'm tryna get busy We walked dogs that was off the chain Lotta times at the shows people hardly cameI just, took it in stride as a part of the game but inside People down with me started to change It was a couple thangs, little syrup, little pills Instead of riding out on the road you'd rather chillI know the way the pleasure feels, I'm not judgin' But still I'm on a mission yo, I'm not buggin' I got fam that can't stop druggin', they can't sleep They can't stick to one subject they can't eat It's people steady comin' at me out in the street Like Riq yo what up with ya peeps, it gets deep, niggaYo, you need to walk straight masta ya high Son, you missing out on what's passin' ya by I done see these streets suck a lotta cats dry But not you and I my nigga We got to get C'mon over, over, the water C'mon over, over, the water Yo, water Yo, waterWe done been through many meals a couple of deals Shared clothes and wheels, killed mics and reels We done rocked shows abroad and slept on floors Trying to figure what the fuck we gettin' slept on forOr what we walkin' with the weapon for Weighted by the gravity law You know it if you came up poor my nigga Picture the bus up northYou know we made of everything outlaws are made of I'm far from a hata And I don't say I love you 'Cause the way I feel is greater M-illa you a poet son, you a born creatorAnd this'll probably dawn on you later It's in your nature Lyrics all up on you walls like they made of paper You gotta follow where the talent take ya Ya might fuck around and finally make it and that's real but yoYo, you need to walk straight masta ya high Son, you missing out on what's passin' ya by I done see these streets suck a lotta cats dry But not you and I my nigga We got to get C'mon over, over, the water C'mon over, over, the water Yo, water Yo, waterYo, I want ya all to understand I come from South Philly And when I walk the streets it's like a pharmacy They got all type-a shit anybody can get It go from H to X to Loosie cigarettesFor my ghetto legend, known for little shiest runnin' Cop Codine by the Quarts and keep comin', dumbin' Just embracing the dope like it's a woman Ya burning both sides of the rope and just pullin', tuggin'In between Islam and straight thuggin' Layin' everyday around the way and doin' nothin' See 'em all shakin' their heads and start shruggin' If they don't got a man like mine they gotta cousin An yo, you better be a true friend to himBefore the shit put an end to him Or give a pen to him And lock him in the studio with a mic 'Cause on the real it might save his life And keep tellin' himYo, you need to walk straight masta ya high Son, you missing out on what's passin' ya by I done see these streets suck a lotta cats dry But not you and I my nigga We got to get C'mon over, over, the water C'mon over, over, the water Yo, water Yo, waterYo, you need to walk straight masta ya high Son, you missing out on what's passin' ya by I done see these streets suck a lotta cats dry But not you and I my nigga We got to get C'mon over, over, the water C'mon over, over, the water Yo, water Yo, water
