This Is Real

[big l]

I drive up and down harlem blocks, iced out watch

Knots in my socks, cops think Im selling rocks

Pulling me over too see if Im drunk

But Im sober they wouldnt fuck with me if I drove a nova

Listen columbo youre mad because your money come slow

And what you make in a year I make in one show

Now you wanna frisk me and search my ride

Call me all kinda names try to hurt my pride

Youre just mad cause Im a young cat, pockets dumb fat

Talkin bout where the gun at, I been there and done that

Im through with that illegal life, Im stayin legit

I love to see cars come cruisin bye and playin my shit

I walk around with six thou without a pist-al, my whole clicks wild

Im rich pal, no more sticks Im makin hits now

I drink cristal, Im through breakin laws

I dont sell coke anymore, I do tours

So get that flashlight out of my face

To bring me down them jakesll do whatever it takes

Word up them federals got my phone and my house tapped

Praying that I fall for the mouse trap, I doubt that

Chorus: big l

Why do I end up in so much shit

I done came way too far to be callin it quits

Jake wanna lock me up even though Im legit

They cant stand to see a young brother pockets get thick

[fat joe]

Aiyyo enoughs enough, federals try to set me up

Put me in cuffs and crush what I lust into dust

Plus, they want a nigga sewed, but they know

Big joey crack aint never rat a cat that he know

Fo sho, death before dishonor; I left the streets alone

Since tone deceased it almost killed his mama

So ima keep doin what Im doin

Pursuin my dream til there enough cream to start my own union

And show these kids how legit it is

Shit is real I used to steal but now I own several businesses

So wheres your witness that you claim to have, sayin that Im takin half

Extortin new york and not payin tax

Im layin back, playin the role, playin the low

But its the same ol joe so dont get k.o.d

Hey yo Im gonna fry for what I never did

Or catch a heavy bid, why dont they just let a nigga live? 

Chorus 2x

"what would you do..

If the vicious enemy suddenly started comin at you..

Armed to the teeth, and ready to kill you? "
