[Intro]

Oh yeah, it ain't over, motherfuckers

Yeah, we supposed to elevate not segregate

And we got love for the East

And I know the East got love for the West

But there's certain niggas, you know what I'm saying?

Wanna talk shit, dissing where I'm from

So basically, for every action, there's an equal and opposite reaction


[Hook]

Now I'm a rap fan who never saw Bam' rock the park

In the Bronx, but I still snap skulls in the dark


[Verse 1]

So can you recognize shit is real?

When I shove this ampex 4-9-9 up your rectum

I'm ready to bust every bitch nigga's cherry

See these floods in January got me lookin' in the mirror

Screamin' Bloody Mary

Unnecessary representing, equal set tripping

Divided by my tennis shoe pimping

Got all ya'll niggas dipping, like Lipton Tea Bags, son

His steelo Jeet Kune Do – the way of the intercepting fist

Intercepting every subliminal diss

Geographic, prejudice against increments of incredulous legislature

Psychologically, I masturbate with the hands of fate

So bust nuts on Mother Nature, coming on your landscape

I'm pressing California license plate

For niggas in all 50 fucking states

But it's biting me and fighting me, inviting me to rhyme

I can't hold it back, I'm lookin' for the line

Takin' off my lambskin Marc Buchanan

'Cause I'ma make you see L.A. like Ed O'Bannon

Nigga come in peace and brothers can kick it

But you ain't gonna walk my streets

When back East, you selling wolf tickets

Reciprocate the player hating, bring the bullshit to you

Going through yo' coast, like the green Gary Gnu

Who said "No is good gnews"

But gniggas is gnot gnowing about the gnext shit that I be flowin'

So don't represent at my expense – it's too expensive

The first and last line of my defense is my sentence

You got caught off the coast of the Pacific Ocean

Found face down, floating, with your fucking neck broken


[Hook]

Now I'm a rap fan who never saw Bam rock the park

In the Bronx, but I still snap skulls in the dark

(Snap some neck for some live effects)


[Verse 2]

I walk the planet and create tremors

If nothing else, here's all you need to remember

"L-L-A apostrophe Y

L-L-A-K-C-U-F" for all you backwards-ass niggas

Psychologically, we grapple an MC

Like Gracie at the UFC, so place me in your octagon

Coward on mixtapes and interviews, I'm hearing you

Certain dissidents diss from a distance

Disrespect and discriminate

Nigga, I laminate that ass

And wear it at the New Music Seminar for a badge

Mash or get twisted

Dem gwan front like Rosa Parks, but them marks is broke wristed (Bitch)

Superiority complex – based on old statistics, now listen

Respect due to the pioneers

But what your borough did in '83

Is ancient history, bruh

So why these niggas acting like since they live in the state

That rap originates they automatically all-time greats?

It takes classic material to make phat shit

Not proof of New York residence and an accent

Who expresses the freshest?

The West Coast was resurrected

By me, I'm the motherfucking man like Homo erectus

So why it matter where rap started?

If I wanted to hear from the asshole, I would have farted

I'm a West Coast artist, down with cliques from 510 to 516

But diss indiscriminately and you diss me

Fundamentally is the ability to smother suckers

So if rap was born to another, then that makes me a motherfucker

'Cause I'm the type of nigga to go to yo' show

Fuck yo' ho

Then nut on yo' promotional T-shirt

Alert the solar eclipse, the planet Earth eternally verbally

I fucks your head up like Florence and Normandie, normally

(Normally)

(Easily I approach)
