[00:57.32]Cold knocking niggaz out
[00:58.58]Tell my tales by word of mouth
[01:00.32]Ya
[01:00.61]You know me
[01:03.28]When the sun goes down
[01:04.30]And the lights in the city get low
[01:06.38]Where you gonna hide
[01:08.34]When your peeps ain't around
[01:09.40]And there ain't no place to go
[01:11.59]Where you gonna hide
[01:13.53]When the hood starts watching
[01:14.56]And the boys got they eye on your safe
[01:16.45]Where you gonna hide
[01:18.59]Ain't nowhere to run
[01:19.65]And there ain't no hiding place
[01:21.23]Don't compare me to jokes
[01:22.45]I'll strangle the air in your throat
[01:24.04]Like you jump from a chair and choke
[01:25.45]In mid-air from a rope
[01:26.87]Got a big gun and carry a scope
[01:28.41]The flair of the smoke
[01:29.46]Keep niggaz quiet like words that librarians spoke
[01:31.71]I'm arrogant
[01:32.25]Outlandish
[01:33.45]Blow your face out
[01:34.31]And shake out the dandruff
[01:35.38]The jakes won't make out the handprints
[01:37.52]I'm as real as it gets
[01:38.70]With the steel and the clips
[01:39.86]Bark and make niggaz duck
[01:40.89]And kneel and do splits
[01:41.91]It gets no realer than this
[01:43.01]It's Tay and Elzhi dropping that definitive sh*t
[01:45.61]This should have been a double album
[01:47.26]Commemorative disc
[01:48.29]Cause hip-hop might need us
[01:49.80]And in your town
[01:50.72]No telling where you might see us
[01:52.29]My whole team coming through in tees and wife beaters
[01:54.86]Out
[01:55.33]Doing their damn thing like beavers
[01:57.29]Yo
[01:57.63]It's P to the H-O
[01:58.83]I finish the job
[01:59.68]Plus my Dominican Broad
[02:00.93]Making me chili con caso
[02:02.59]Work and plan a perfect verse
[02:03.99]Then burst like a person
[02:04.98]That jerked from a circus cannon
[02:06.47]Then landed to the earth
[02:07.52]It's me on the song
[02:08.54]Featured your fleet
[02:09.22]Breathing is strong
[02:10.10]It's a gypsy reading a palm
[02:11.66]With a drawn heater
[02:12.91]Never gone of the wrong **
[02:14.74]A bong chief
[02:15.38]Of the don ballest
[02:16.24]As long as the bronze is bronze sneakers
[02:17.97]Got ways of a thuggie
[02:19.31]Thinking I won't come and get you
[02:20.37]Dressed like a gun with pistols
[02:21.52]And AK's in a bundle
[02:22.85]And Tay is blazing it lovely
[02:24.11]Cause I'm one with the game
[02:25.31]So I sat back
[02:26.29]Chilled
[02:26.64]Dropped Foreign Exchange
[02:27.93]And a lot of rap niggaz got lost
[02:29.84]Heard Phontigga carrying tunes
[02:31.58]And assumed he don got soft
[02:33.26]They didn't understand it was my next direction
[02:35.61]So I'm playing postman and addressing questions
[02:38.14]Like
[02:38.56]Yes I'm still a LB
[02:39.67]No I'm not leaving
[02:40.85]No I don't eat meat
[02:42.10]But yes I'm still beefing
[02:43.44]But all these wack niggaz putting records out

[02:49.84]And I ain't worried
[02:50.80]About people biting Minstrel Show
[02:52.14]They still teething on "The Listening"
[02:53.67]Where you gonna hide
[02:55.33]When the sun goes down
[02:56.68]And the lights in the city get low
[02:58.83]Where you gonna hide
[03:00.74]When your peeps ain't around
[03:01.77]And there ain't no place to go
[03:03.91]Where you gonna hide
[03:05.86]When the hood starts watching
[03:06.86]And the boys got they eyes on your safe
[03:08.82]Where you gonna hide
[03:10.98]Ain't nowhere to run
[03:12.01]And there ain't no hiding place
