They askin
Who you with
Where you atAre you good enough
Are you bad
Where your flows
Where your raps
Where your hoes
Where your flash
Where your cash, pack a mac, ratatat, cap an ass, catch a bag
Why you not like the others
Won′t you co-py the others
Cop what they covered
In, in
Army fatigues
March to the beat
Fuck a heart on a sleeve
Greg Fock meeting parents
Don't love, feed a parrot
Go fuck up a marriage
Be something they scared of
Cause someone apparently
Got them embarrassed
Cause they got nothing to fear
Aside from the comfort of fear
That′s why they guzzle a couple a beers
Then they go buck and fuck up history
Setting us back, BC BC
Makin a man fiend BC weed
Going blind just like BCC
Well they say history repeats
And they can't find their DVR
While they go mine the seeds of war
Got no time for these reports
Sponsored by these keys of coke
Who would rather feed their pockets than the poor
Oh fa sho
I'ma hold you down
I′ma hold you down
I′ma hold you down
I hold it down for my people
I hold it down for my people
I hold it down for my people
I'ma hold you down
I′ma hold you down
I'ma hold you down
I hold it down for my people
I hold it down for my people
I hold it down for my people
This is not a test or quest-on
On a bigger exam than your eye can see
You respond with the reflection
When you squint in the camera those signs′ll read
Imitate your peers - be like boy
Rookie of the year - we like Roy
Following the noise - wavelength
Chasing tsunamis you stay swept
Up in the mainstream
Yes men are nosy
Up end your pay stream
Distance from cozy
Cats who play it safe are some cowards who lack devotion
Plastic wilts in flames like a flower in fast motion
Careers in double jeopardy their answers filled with questions
Why leave an impression if it ain't impressive
They say where there′s smoke there's fire well I refute it
Too much smoke and mirrors, without no lighter fluid
Despite the buushit I guide a crew with desire to prove shit
Can't fight a movement with Ivy students al-Qaeda shooting
Rep the best of both mental sects
Vigilantes and intellects
Catching Jets - Winnipeg
Tell the world we ain′t finished yet
I′ma hold you down
I'ma hold you down
I′ma hold you down
I hold it down for my people
I hold it down for my people
I hold it down for my people
I'ma hold you down
I′ma hold you down
I'ma hold you down
I hold it down for my people
I hold it down for my people
I hold it down for my people
