Acting - Intellectual

[Intro]

[Verse 1]

Yo everybody be strugglin', weed smugglin', jugglin'

Bubblin', cream-doublin', you're tired so I'm subbin' in

I love it when I rub it in, rediscoverin'

How to play the top to start hoverin', no recoverin'

Yo, today could be your done day

I be a legend like a Ac' while your style be like a Hyundai

You couldn't catch me like the Humboldt on a Sunday

Every day's a Sunday, maybe nigga one day

One day, shit like this just won't happen

Without jaw tappin' or gun clappin', just rappin'

Where niggas pull hoes not gats at the shows

Heat 'em up, be still froze, ghetto keep Edo. on his toes

My shit be bangin' more than Little Rock

Your little talk can get you stepped on like a sock

1-904 be my block

Tricks get with John like stocks, keep 'em open like Franklin Park

I lend ya heat like the end of September, boy remember

Or get caught in a new dilemma and make your chances a lot slimmer

You wanna drown me? But I'm a good swimmer

You see the light but it keeps gettin' dimmer

Linin' niggas up without clippers or trimmers

Rhymin' like beginners, straight up pretenders

I'm eatin' all you hoes videos 'cause they T.V. dinners

And since you niggas got a taste of the flow (Yeah)

This be on dogs when I'm lettin' niggas know (Yo)

[Chorus: Method Man]

Actin' as if it can't happen

[Verse 2]

I got peeps up in Lawrence, plus I got skills like niggas got warrants

Time to play the general while chumps play the sergeant

You wanna be a star and make a buck like Roger, get larger

I makes the hit that L.A. couldn't Dodger

Times is gettin' harder, slaughter minds that ain't broader

Sayin' shit I been thoughta, seein' through crews like water

'Cause they all be peanuts, just like Jimmy Carter

Won't be the beef starter, but finisher

Quiet and sinister while you be loud like a minister

I entertain to maintain and refrain

Away from chumps games and punk lames, buck names

Dogs bite you, think of what I might do

Invite you then ignite you, nigga, knowin' I don't like you

'Cause you's a weaklin', hard when you're geeked on the weekend

Im wreakin', your stee be leakin'

Yo, plus I gets open like a creakin'

My thoughts be comin' back deeper than a gang of Puerto Ricans

When they beefin', droppin' like leafs when the fall comes

I want cream in large bills and in tall sums

And y'all bums know a player's house, you couldn't come off

If you used graffiti on the mayor's house

So stop rappin' and start jackin', niggas actin' as if it can't happen

[Chorus: Method Man]

Actin' as if it can't happen

[Verse 3]

Yo, back in '91, yo, a nigga had to have it

I learned the facts of life without that trick Mrs. Garret

You better watch out comin' through, with my crew

They got the lye, I got the brew, more chickens on ice than Purdue

You better put them on lock down 'fore

They get the ten count knock down, hittin' it without my socks down

Cross-town, orange line in the mid bound

Up seven get you wet, nigga been drowned

Pretend now, I been down

Since the early 80's, got a chrome tre' eighty

Niggas wanna play me, act shady

Stopped smokin' squares, now I weigh one eighty

Silence the lamb but not a dog with rabies

You be high like the Air Force and deep like the Navy

You diddle like fiddles, got hit up with more flavors than skittles

While I remain cool like other side of the pillow

You hardcore buck clappin', big slappin', actin' as if it can't happen

[Chorus: Method Man]

Actin' as if it can't happen
