southeast to pennsylvania
if i ain't whippin a land
nine times out of time i rhymes upon the l train
foun-tains over rugged moun-tains
diggit i came too far to front
so i'm meditatin on how to maintain
stepped off at city hall into the rain;
and ran into my nigga named dane - i mean hakeem
and we was buildin on how we could organize the team
for this capital gain bein that we in the rap game
he said he figured he same
we realized this a planet of cream
conglomerate rap spark the flame
the fifth from the ill-power hill at that
he dropped me off within the streets of south phil'
where niggaz think that killing's living real
shorties is getting wetted
fulfilling their fantasies to set it
by the fifth you get beheaded
i pivot through my borough givin pounds to the dreaded
at the lye spots i got credit; could run em down
in alphabetic-al order it's sorta pathetic
i'm livin life within a labryinth of nonsense
this is a consequence of being philly residents

i walk through this field with 'iminals
try to make it to-wards the generals
hard-headed rugged captains
walkin head on through action
turnkeys on the closed caption
i bring the skills of wizardry
so now you see the picture vividly
seduce your brain from the temple over instrumentals
the swift camp -- mannerism is to scan your vision
you can't eclipse the sun
but still they'll strap a gun
to shoot caps that spook cats and rappers hung
now you might tube across from the diners where you find em lost
the bad lieutenant kill your camp
you're now a victim of reality
for three to five if convicted
because most cats will live corrupted
it ain't no pity in this inner city niggaz fuckin
exquisite i exhibit the shine now check it out

inclined to rap about facts
shit is real like e packs
couldn't faze the true heartache
but then few remember this
plain jane styles internal
derived from mindstates of cold crush tapes
and beat breaks seduced by means to elevate
equates my views with the passing
those matching this intellect identify
intertwine one thought in uni-son
we exquisite i exhibit the shine
