A Puppa Nas a rock and come in, nah mean?
We celebrate like I finished probation, boy-boy
Knotty Head with no chaser, boy-boy
From the mouth, I can spit out a razor, boy-boy
Open up your facial like your boy Roy in his prime
Eat food, dinnertime, Jr. Gong, pass the Guinness
Handle business, black Velvet sippers
Females never bid us farewell, they with us
'Cause we arrive on the scene just like a high beam, nah mean?
Don't let us have to make the 9 scream, nah mean?
At your racial policin' regime, nah mean?
Spiritual like a Elohim, nah mean?
In a casino or a yacht, wherever I'm seen
My brothers and sisters are never forgot, nah mean?
Don't wanna hear another soldier drop, nah mean?
Another dope addict get shot with the morphine
And Feds are indictin' my block, nah mean?
They're wearin' red from they shoes to they top, nah mean?
I'm wishin' that all the violence would stop, nah mean?!
We nuh like the sound of siren, nah mean?

We send a bwoy go tek intravene, nah mean?

You think a lie we badder than Al Pacin' (Nah mean?)
It's genocide, it's a genocide
It's a genocide, it's a genocide
Fifth floor, cookin' raw, had my own supply
'Cause of capitalist ways, that was back in the days
So now I do rap and it pays

Eat food, dinnertime, Jr. Gong, pass the Guinness
Handle business, sipping black Velvet

Say I’m the real deal in a Rasta regime
Bush Bungalow is where I dwell with my queen
Trash to the bone in camouflage green
A lot of them can’t go the places we’ve been
A lot of them can’t see the sights that we’ve seen
That’s why their faces all twisted and lean, you know what I mean?
They better mind we kick it off clean, you know what I mean?
