[Intro: O.C. (M.O.P shouting)]

(Bass) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

(My niggas) What the fuck, what the fuck, what the fuck

(Firing Squad, nigga) Ha, uh, yeah, ha

What, what, my M.O.P. Click (My motherfucking M.O.P nigga)

(For Life) Them niggas deep, what the deal, yeah (For Life)

O.C. nigga, coming for real, what (O.C.)

Uh, yeah

Check this shit out


[Verse 1: O.C]

Now check this motherfucking combo right here

Mash Out Posse SLASH

O.C. come together like a Glock and a clip

We won't jam when it's time to blast!

Bitch niggas on wax, we 'bout to get in yo' ass

We done played the background for too long

All my new shit, I'm namin' names, fuck it, it's on

I'm takin' it back to some Brooklyn shit, with this ten-man clique

Who don't know how to act, lookin' for some niggas to hit

And if you that rapper who think it can't happen to you

You might end up in the East River with some bale-ass shoes

I ain't playin' no more, I'm gonna bring it to your ass raw

I flipped the word around, nigga, this means (WAR!)

Yo, fuck that, Crooklyn's on the map forever

To Billy and Fame, I hold y'all niggas down for whatever

With mics or with the guns when it's time to shoot

To Crooklyn I give a 21-GUN SALUTE

(Come on)


[Chorus]

Flatbush

Crown Heights

"Thought I'd remind y'all"

Brownsville (Firing Squad)

Bed-Stuy

"Thought I'd remind y'all"

Bushwick *cut and scratched*

C.I.- *cut and scratched* "Thought I'd remind y'all"

Fort Greene *cut and scratched*

--East New York

"Thought I'd remind y'all"


[Verse 2: Lil' Fame]

I used to roll up, this is a holdup, MAKE 'em fold up

Come up out your clothes and get your whole shit swole up

This game ain't changed 'cause I became a rapper dude

I'm still a black cat, quick, and straight clap a dude

(Try to act rude) Play the mascot

With your clown ass ways, these days, look what your ass got

Mad shots to the body, I'm keeping it real

That cartoon-ass-nigga thought he was King of the Hill

That whole shit was animation, imitation

But I shipped that ass on out, like immigration

Ways of Emancipation, Proclamation

Constitutional rights in the LAST GENERATION

You're facin', M.O.P., O.G.'s

Flippin' this track with O.C

Niggas know we, hold this shit down for Brooklyn, nigga!

Where guns spark and leave them things smokin', nigga!


[Chorus]

Flatbush

Crown Heights

"Thought I'd remind y'all"

Brownsville

(Firing Squad, nigga) "Thought I'd remind y'all"

Bushwick

C.I

"Thought I'd remind y'all"

Fort Greene

--East New York-- "Thought I'd remind y'all"


[Verse 3: Billy Danze]

BANG, BANG! Right upside your head

Full cooperation, I'm taking donations, ante up the bread

(Clack, clack!) You guys got fat while we were gone

So the diamonds that in Rolex watches rocking, take it off

Put the rest of that shit in the bag

I would tear your ass to pieces, so dude please don't make me mad

(Here we go again!) You ain't known, I control my destiny

I only got love for the thugs that's next to me

(Who that?) Berkowitz, soldier, I'm ill

I told ya, I'm real!

And I've been doing a devil danly

Every whispers from my tears is sayin' (Daddy, don't fail me)

Although the work that I done in my front may never be even

I'm one of them dudes that niggas refuse to believe in

(Life is full of obstacles!) So I keep weepin'

(At 24-years old) My only goal is to keep breathin'


[Outro]

Brooklyn

"Thought I'd remind y'all"
