show and prove

Singer:banks, lloyd

i hit the lick

i'm gone

it's hard enough just hanging on

in this game of the strong who play the pawn?

swarming you on a day when it's calm

remain alone

love

honour and karma all part of my favourite songs

i've been down

too long

the only way to pay 'em back's to show 'em

i'm a show 'em all

they don't want me to go

but i'm going

there's a lot of ways to make it

and more ways to lose it

you gettin' to it? then make it count

i got hallways of music

big world raised a ruler

my boys knew it and they can vouche

everybody chasing that money

as soon as it comes niggas act funny

what's the hatin' bout?

same niggas holdin ya baby

got the intentions so crazy

tryin to get into your paper route

ah

i bet the same bitch you trustin'

got your name up for discussion

ass bussin' to rock her world

she on the crowd tip

chicken head and proud as shit

infatuated with foul shit

diamonds

rocks and pearls

uh

he lost a homie to the same grind

poison girls

sick to my stomach

tryin' not to hurl

ah

we live the blood sport

it's game time

fuck your hood

to free mine

else get to rock the hood

i hit the lick

i'm gone

it's hard enough just hanging on

in this game of the strong who play the pawn?

swarming you on a day when it's gone

remain alone

love

honour and karma all part of my favourite songs

i've been down

too long

only way to pay 'em back's to show 'em

i'm a show 'em all

they don't want me to go

but i'm going

uh

gotta learn to handle the pressure

you let the industry stress you

you be pushed out before your time

me

i love that

shout out to heckler

the money bag collector"
