[Solomon’s Child (formerly known as Killa Bamz)]
Yeah, Soloman marked for life, a million to life
Thug for life, forever eyein the kid

Rowdy Brighton God-body
Smooth like a leather bop, ’83 hip-hop
Top of the world, get it rizzight
Big to your wizzife, murder cats for the right prizzice
Four-hundred and fifty-six on the dizzice
This is real lizzife, ain’t nothin sweet God
Sit down and think it through God
Cuz comin all outta ya face’ll get ya clap God

[Girl]
You are now listening to the sounds of Supreme Clientele

[Verse 1]
[Noreaga]
Got out the mall yo
This weeded cat rockin a fade
In my face askin can he see the grenade
I woulda let him see it
The way he came across yo I said nah, beat it
Steph told me buck him
When I reacted Will said chill f–k him
Yo it’ a small world ya know that we’ll see him again
He said f–k you
I said what, repeat it again

[Nas]
Chill son you’e weeded again
Slow down god you’re speedin again
Face lookin like you’re fiendin for Hen
Who that wit you, hide the gat yo n—a come here
You got a pistol that must mean you slingin again

[Noreaga]
Hey yo f–k it yo, I bucked him son
Cause he was on some stupid s–t
Thinking he the real thing
When he was just a duplicate
Saying that he hate our clique
Hate our s–t
Hate the Firm album and the CNN clique
He said he hate you and wish you ain’t have a six
He had coliseum jewelry no Tito tricks

Funny that my first choice today was Bjork’s “Hyper-Ballad,” directed by Michel Gondry, who also directed this video. When I switched my thinking to a less obscure artists, my first choice was Lenny Kravitz, “If You Can’t Say No,” but I eventually chose “Believe In Me,” from his album Lenny. I need you to believe in me. I need to believe in you and us too (2012 edit)
