["Some get over the hump... bootleggin!



Some go down in the dark! Bootleggin.



Some get over the hump... bootleggin!



Some go down in the dark! Bootleggin.



Steady bootleggin! Steady bootleggin!



Steady bootleggin! Steady bootleggin!"]




Verse One: Sadat X




I've been watching you for about two weeks



Selling phony imitations of myself



if I chose to wild I might flip or break your table



Strong arms tappin all your pockets



Look, look at this tape, loose ass plastic



Copy machine picture damn straight I'm gonna hit ya



But I don't cause I maintain, you're just a common street peddler



offender, the question revolves



Is the record company involved?



Hmm, dig the reality, is that I'm bein played



Should somebody take the weight cause my pocket's like on E



That I can't see, therefore I burnt teeth



When I find the source to my loss of income



I gots ta see him Jack, yo I gots ta see



And the street vendor out there, don't steal don't sell my tape



I don't give a fuck about the plea that you coppin



Everyone's got problems sellin my tape ain't gonna solve em



On my ave... holdin your eye with a heatin pad



Dig the scene cat, knowledge the crime, know the time



Or you'll be out much more than a dime




["So many fingers... steady bootleggin!



Some of these high class ahead they still bootleggin!



So many fingers... steady bootleggin!



Some of these high class ahead they still bootleggin!



Steady bootleggin! Steady bootleggin!



Steady bootleggin! Steady bootleggin!"]




Verse Two: Lord Jamar




A kick in the ass from a leg and a boot



Constitute the right to shoot one who steals my loot



Bang ban
