[Lil Wayne]
Shhh
Gangsta to the core
Ankle wrap flamer
Paint your kicthen floor
Wit ur w****
s*** you can't ignore
Things you indore when u f***** wit the boy
All i hear is weezy don't kill me no more
I hear your bullshit
I play mat at door
I'm not a category
I aint there wit ya'll
I got a positive vibe but i ain't scared of ya'll
Git the kid n**** did never that at all
That rat a tat go off
A black kak kak kak
I gotta b**** so fine her name perrion(?)
She no how to stash quarters in a carry on
I blow outta town

Uptown in the buildin not a sound
Cuz killas don't get heard about
They get whispered about
Or you get murdered out (n****)
[Chorus: Birdman (Lil Wayne)]
Well let me take to to the neck of the woods

And if you got enemies (yeah)
Your son got enemies (believe that)
That's uptown energy n****!
[Birdman]
Don't waste no time on no bullshit
If it ain't hood s***
We spend a lil paper n****
Well if you catch em in the hood n****
It's all good s***
Go head do me that favor n****
Well let me take you down deep in the inside
It's where they hustle and the homies try to get it right
It's when you gotta ride
It's when the homie die
And the money can't stop the pain in the inside
[Chorus: Birdman (Lil Wayne)]
