[Intro: Evidence]

Ladies and gentlemen...


[Verse 1: Evidence]

Hot's a hundred degrees and hotter

Hot is stuck on rooftops in N.O. four days with no water

Hot's a sold out tour, number one on Billboard

Hot could be that watch you didn't buy from the store

You ain't cold if you got no mack and step in the spot

And still leave with a girl who drop it like it's hot

Certain words flip, I'm on a roll

If the cops watch you move bricks, you hot; if you shoot bricks, you cold

Cold is can't get arrested, cold's alone gettin' old

Cold is too much product on the shelf, nothin' sold

Cats are froze, so cold they can't melt

Trust me, bein' cold's a cold hand to be dealt


[Verse 2: Casual]

Ayo, I spit hip-hop, Papa Nero, get my raw off, sawed off

Double barrel spitter considered a hitter

And if I'm ever cold, it's like Iceberg Slim

Nice words, brim tilted on the fedora

Killed it on the majority of rappers who swore on me

"He's so hot, and he's so boring"

DJ's on my cuts, they rub Neosporin

I'm Neo, don't fuck with me, though

Use infrared temperature sensors to convince 'em that my sentence is fire

It's why I'm hot, this is why you're not

I'm Casual, Evidence has guided, akh

I get witty with my committee and they consider me hot

[Chorus: Defari & Evidence]

You either hot, hot, hot

Or you're not, not, not

What's our motherfuckin' names?

Better get it right, people better get it right

("Evidence and Casual") ("Keep it hot")

You either hot, hot, hot

("Like the sun burn, burnin' down the block")

Or you're not, not, not

("It's so cold"), ("I'll leave em froze like ice")

("Hotter than lava") ("Colder than ever")

("Evidence and Casual") ("Keep it hot")


[Verse 3: Evidence]

Cold's when the thrill is gone, cold's the good die young

Cold's the villain, cold's how wanted the cold chillin'

Cold's no love at the door, turned away when you roll up

In the cold, cold is no money for cold cuts

Hot and cold, that's opposite extremes

I think, which way is worse—burn to death or freeze?

Hot's when you sellin' units, strictly word of mouth

We from the bottom of Cali, that's why the birds fly South

For the winter, copped a new crib, studio built in

It's hot, hot is not Paris Hilton

Tryin' to breathe, a cold world, inhale each breath

Still the sun can't chill, but every day the West sets


[Verse 4: Casual]

And when it's hot, I'm to the waves, stay pitchin' that top water

Smooth be hot, I'm with his daughter, he caught her at the Ramada, oops

Gotta be proud of the way I be outta this world

With the hottest shit, a bully with fully polished aquatic spit

Make beats, chop 'em up

Write raps hot as fuck

From the Bay to L.A. like the California Aqueduct

Stylin' on ya, whylin', my team might get violent on ya

I'ma smash when Cash catch you on the island, homie

What happened to you? See how much rappin' I do?

It's cold when what happens in Vegas never happens to you

It's hot when that booth sends Casual the crack

'Cause Evidence wanna bring Casual back

[Chorus: Defari & Evidence]

You either hot, hot, hot

Or you're not, not, not

What's our motherfuckin' names?

Better get it right, people better get it right

("Evidence and Casual") ("Keep it hot")

You either hot, hot, hot

("Like the sun burn, burnin' down the block")

Or you're not, not, not

("It's so cold"), ("I'll leave em froze like ice")

("Hotter than lava") ("Colder than ever")

("Evidence and Casual") ("Keep it hot")


[Outro scratches]

("It's hot")

("It's so cold")
