Uh, somethin' new
[Chorus x 2]
Stop, drop, shut 'em down, open up shop
Oh, no
That's how Ruff Ryders roll
n***** wanna try
n***** wanna lie
Then n***** wonder why
n***** wanna die
All I know is pain
All I feel is rain
How can I maintain
With mad s*** on my brain?
I resort to violence
My n***** move in silence
Like you don't know what our style is
New York n***** - the wildest
My n***** is wit' it
You want it? Come and get it
Took it, then we split it
You f*****' right we did it
What the f*** you gonna do
When we run up on you?
f*****' wit' the wrong crew
Don't know what we goin' through
I'm a have to show n*****
How easily we blow n*****
When you find out there's some more n*****
That's runnin' with your n*****
Nothin' we can't handle
Break it up and dismantle
Light it up like a candle
Just 'cause I can't stand you
Put my s*** on tapes
Like you bussin' grapes
Think you holdin' weight?
Then you haven't met the apes
[Chorus x 2]
Is y'all n***** crazy?
I'll bust you and be swazy
Stop actin' like a baby
Mind your business, lady
Nosy people get it, too
When you see me spit at you
You know I'm tryin' to get rid of you
Yeah, I know it's pitiful
That's how n***** get down
Watch my n***** split round
Make y'all n***** kiss ground
Just for talkin' s***, clown
Oh, you think it's funny
Then you don't know me, money
It's about to get ugly
f*** it, dog, I'm hungry
I guess you know what that mean
Come up off that green
Five n***** or a fiend
Don't make it a murder scene
Give a dog a bone
Leave a dog alone
Let a dog roam
And he'll find his way home
Home of the brave
My home is a cage
And yo, I'm a slave
Till my home is a grave
I'm a pull paper
It's all about the papers
b****** caught the papers
Then how they wanna rape us
[Chorus x 2]
Look what you done started
Asked for it, you got it
Had it, should have shot it
Now you're dearly departed
Get at me, dog; did I rip s***?
With this one here, I flip s***
n***** know when I kick s***
It's gonna be some slick s***
What was that look for
When I walked in the door?
Oh, you thought you was raw?
Boom! Not anymore
'Cause now you on the floor
Wishin' you never saw
Me walk through that door
With that four-four
Now it's time for bed
Two more to the head
Got the floor red
Yeah, that n****'s dead
Another unsolved mystery
Is goin' down in history
n***** ain't never did s*** to me
b**** a** n***** can't get to me
Gots to make the move
Got a point to prove
Gotta make 'em grove
Got 'em all like "ooo"
So the next time
You hear this n**** rhyme
Try to keep your mind
On gettin' p**** and prime
Stop, drop, shut 'em down, open up shop
[Chorus x 2]
Stop, drop, shut 'em down, open up shop
Oh, no
That's how Ruff Ryders roll
n***** wanna try
n***** wanna lie
Then n***** wonder why
n***** wanna die
All I know is pain
All I feel is rain
How can I maintain
With mad s*** on my brain?
I resort to violence
My n***** move in silence
