Straight outta Now Rule, brand new, keep it cool
We drop a jewel, and never stop at what we do
Always do what we must, everything that we touch
Is goin platinum and plus, comin through in the clutch
Straight outta Now Rule, brand new, keep it cool
We drop a jewel, and never stop at what we do
Always do what we must, everything that we touch
Is goin platinum and plus, comin through in the clutch
A lot of y'all niggas is eighty-fifth, on some shady shit
Bark is much worse than your bite, like a baby pit
In the pitch dark of the night, you's afraid to get exposed
Like the sunlight, which rose in the morning, froze in a gunfight
Forcin those who run wit'chu to re-evaluate
Affiliations, we salivate from hunger plates
For fucked up situations, and wonder when retaliation
Will occur, build, destroy, H-T or Hurr
It's time to fill the void, niggas kill the noise
To the young boys, fuck around wit' a grown ass man
Watch your tone or get acquainted wit' the back of my hand
Nubian brand, steadily influencin fans
For other rappers we gon' ruin your plans
What we doin stands as a motto, like Grace Jones
Nipple to the bottle, we pioneer and never follow
We out for the lion's share, now watch me take it there
(NEW YORK CITY RIGHT ABOUT NOW!)
Yeah, my verbal clarity speaks for my popularity
Sell five million CDs and give the proceeds to my favorite charity
Son I ain't gon' super splash you wit' no fantasy island shit
I mean I work hard for what I got and I be thankful for what I get
And if you practice, spit your verbals properly not sloppily
Like Monopoly, you can end up wit' cheese whips and property
Oh damn, silly ol' me, I forgot to let y'all know
There's one thing you should never do
In this game and that's sell your soul
I make a lot of sense, then I go and make the dollars
Work hard like blue collars, ghetto scholars that's hard to follow
Niggas say it's real rough today and I say, "What you say?"
They promise me forty acres and a mule
And all I got was a project and a subway
I stay positive, niggas mistake that for not hard shit
God, walkin North America like Master Fard
Me and my squad, separatin the peas from the pod
No bodyguard, fuck around and roll a tank through your yard
Straight outta Now Rule, brand new, keep it cool
We drop a jewel, and never stop at what we do
Always do what we must, everything that we touch
Is goin platinum and plus, comin through in the clutch
Straight outta Now Rule, brand new, keep it cool
We drop a jewel, and never stop at what we do
Always do what we must, everything that we touch
Is goin platinum and plus, comin through in the clutch
Man these dick in the butt rappers could get shot in the face
Dragged through the streets, and probably left someplace
I seen shootouts in Nepal, ballgames turned tragic
Niggas was gettin smacked and smacked again
In front of they girl, and she throwin away that ass
And I ain't really ask for it, cause a lot of niggas saw it
And yes my man Hap had bought me somethin from V.A
I was gon' hit him wit' dough, but he ain't really want no shorts
Cause we had worked together, and he knew I was true blue
Man I swore I would never go to V.A. again
'Til I found out, who killed my best friend
I can tell by the wind, somebody's gettin ready to bend
They lifestyle's about to end
I'm in these African cabs on stores run by the Arabs
Bitches are yeanin seem like they schemin
Hergaloid cats get flattened reduced to pigeons
That girl gave you crabs, but I can't explain those scabs
(Ha ha, where we at Splif' one time)
Straight outta Now Rule, brand new, keep it cool
We drop a jewel, and never stop at what we do
Always do what we must, everything that we touch
Is goin platinum and plus, comin through in the clutch
Straight outta Now Rule, brand new, keep it cool
We drop a jewel, and never stop at what we do
