know the ledge (juice)

Singer:eric b. & rakim

sip the juice cuz i got enough to go around

and the thought takes place uptown

i grew up on the sidewalk where i learned street talk

and then taught to hawk new york-

i go to queens for queens to get the crew from brooklyn

make money in manhattan and never been tooken

go uptown and the bronx to boogie down

get strong on the island

recoupe

and lay around. time to bulid my juice back up-

props back up

suckers get smacked up

don't doubt the clout

you know what i'm about

knocking niggaz off

knocking niggaz out

shaking em up

waking em up

raking em up

breaking em up. standing on shaky grounds too close to the edge

let's see if i know the ledge

corners' trifling 'cause shorty's here

i get cock-d liffin' forty's of beer;

here's a sip for the crew that's deceased

if i get revenge

then they rest in peace. somebody's got to suffer

i just might spare one-

and give a brother a fair one!

stay alert and on p's". and i do work with these- like hercules
