…regroup, I'm living proof (You know how we do it, you know what it is, uh)
[Verse 2: Benny the Butcher]
I'm the East Side rider…
…to make a friend, rather you hear the truth
Real niggas always regroup, I'm living proof
[Verse 3: Lloyd Banks]
Uh, victory is the greatest treasure…
A hundred salute, prepare the troops
I'm goin' out on my roof, ain't hear to truce
Don't care to make a friend, rather you hear the truth
Real niggas always regroup, I'm living proof (Proof)…
…and mixed with jewels of wisdom
Hip-Hop Still Living
[Verse]
Lyrical finessing' without question is how I'm rocking this here flow
Mc's move the crowd, but I'm the…
…living broke instead of excelling in living, who built this prison
Is it truly the ones we loving to blame
Who no where to be…
…but I got a message in mine....
Hip-Hop still living
[Chorus]
[Verse]
Remember the music that used to encourage you through…
…heart when it all goes down
I ain't plant my flag, give it all I have
Man, how the hell y'all gon' sound?
No fake shit, whatever y'all on now

But what seems like so much fuckin'
So it comes a very fucked…
…t-shirt, you can blast my music
Roll the reefer, reminisce and cool it
Leave no regrets and always eat the truth
When…
…j2k's
In the whip im about with da boys
I was goin thru shit and my aunt said God is good and I replied all da time but u can hear the…
…they find a reason and a trigger to squeeze
Like when ur rights are the only thing a nigga can read
Coz what u know about people not believing the truth

Hey, it's lit
Call my partners up, we going up, you slowing up
I never judge, we do indulge
In truth I never…
…told you how it gets
It's that mix, ain't rap long
Rap, puffing an hour
I'm in a all black top, strapped like [?]
So I can go top…
…mind and, I'm willing to trade my soul if you can find it
An even exchange I'm young and deranged
All these drugs in my body

Hey, it's lit

In truth I never…
…cotton mouth
Down another bottle with my n*ggas
Before this was a movie we pictured us living bitter
And I forgive 'em, whatever, whatever…
…my mind and, I'm willing to trade my soul if you can find it
An even exchange I'm young and deranged
All these drugs in my body…
…blind while they living all their days
Me? Since I'm the weird one I see shit in black and white while I'm living black.and.grey…

[Outro]
And I know you can't stand the truth, but I guess I'm living proof. Whatever I'm not just made me into what I really am
And I'm…
…sorry if you're disappointed, but it's not about what you wanted. I'm gonna live my motherfucking life anyway I can…
…about your ass often
You should wanna sleep in the bed I was jacking off in
It's a reason these motherfuckers is backing off 'im
He…
…was wack
And it offended me like, floozy, why you dissing my music?
And you can ask Proof, we come from Chopper City
Minus the wack suit and the…
…niggas got a lot of nerve
It's magic, you Skip
I'm Jameer, my spot's reserved
Your spot's a reserve
Niggas is scared of the truth…
…'fore I press record
It‘s like a mess, you know
Yeah what‘s the best to show?
Am I the best in flows, can I get Western hoes…

Some type of wet these hoes, can you take off your clothes, damn
Excuse the dirt, dirty language

…their only goal is looking for the big D
Only tryna get famous, so she be the B (TF?)
That was mean, but that‘s really what it seems
All you…
