Previously

How the hell you gonna tell that man not to be violent?

'Cause he don't need to go the same route that I went

Been there, done that

Aw, fuck it, what am I sayin'?

Shoot 'em both, Brady, where's your gun at? *Gunshots*

[Verse 1: Kendrick Lamar &

Now kill yourself

Why'd you say that?

'Cause that's the American way plus it was fun

Man, you a damn jack-

-ass I know everyone wanna make me the scapegoat

Like your the greatest of all time

Fuck you

Asshole

Let's stop the bickering

That's the last time you see me ignorant

So you can kill the thrills of thinking we're not different

Yeah, yeah, you're embarrassed aren't you?

Couldn't control your arsenal

Maybe the next time I'm persuading you, jump in the car pool

So what's your answer?

Man you must have [?] your cracker

Oh no, another white joke, I'm laughing, how original?

You're asking for me to be on the shit that you on

Yeah, we can start with this cat named G Malone *Static*


[Interlude]

"Meet G Malone, a west coast recording artist that's destined for stardom, but acknowledging the false hopes that lie within the music industry, he ponders the thought of going back to drug distribution. Feeling unsure of this decision (DJ rock star

Exclusive)..."

Hey G, remember me?

It's yo' conscience

You know, the voice in yo head that never had fed your nonsense?

I know your getting famous and rather lifestyle is changing

But tell the truth

The music biz isn't what it seems, ain't it?

Don't listen to em G

Keep putting Watts on the map

Fuck that

You been gettin' money way before rap

I say you go back hustlin'

Gather some sherm, pack, and a black magnum

Through Wyatt's mad dog and a pit bull if it watched

Stop, no need to be moving backwards

Besides, your future brighter than half of these rappers

So what's the point of going back to the drug side?

'Cuz everybody knows that G's certified

What the fuck, you dumb as fuck

Oh, what, you jealous fool?

Cuz I know Malone, Keke Loc', and his brother Pool

Plus the Seventh Street-

Man you ain't nothin' but bad bitch

Aye, Malone, if your with it lemme get an ad-lib (yeah)


[Interlude]

"Meet Jay Rock, former quote unquote 'Menace to Society', now Warner Brothers recording artist dealing with the sudden uncertainties of even having his first official single released. He finds himself struggling, daily to overcome the temptations triggering his old criminal ways. At this moment, his conscience comes into play..."

Watt's finest

I told G he wit it

He said he bout to go OT

Forget it

I won't let you fuck up Watt's career

Woah, calm down

Somebody's getting sensitive here

You fucking right because you know Jay Rock is my favorite

Man you got a song with Lil Wayne and still ain't made it

Plus you just had a baby

So I know that shit is stressin'

Know how much pampers cost ya

We live in a recession

I suggest you rob tomorrow

Whatever in sight, whatever you like

And if that bitch resists tell that bitch goodnight

Like that's gon' make a difference

I know it will

What, prison?

I'm just sayin' what he like to do best

What?

Stealin', robbin', jacking guys for nice cars

Like the nigga did in 17

Did you say nigga?

It was a joke you know what I mean

I mean, I hope you know what I mean

Why you mad?

You're acting mean

I mean, you said the same thing earlier

What the fuck you worried for?

I thought we was a team man

You trippin' man

You glitchin'

You don't get it

You was right

You are different

You fuckin' right

Why the hells you gotta fuck with the future of Watts?

Okay, okay

Lets see the choice he makes before his album drops *Static*
