[Marsha Ambrosius] To everybody who knows my story To all of those who came before me My time is now, I´m gon´ do it all over again Ain´t nothin´ new ain´t nothing change
I´m still gonna do it my way Yeah I still remain So tell me why you hate the game So tell me why you hate the game This time I do it better just because
[Nas] Y´all know what it is The streets named me Illmatic but yet I´m still at it Can´t hate us
[Nas] Felon, Vice behind me on the intersection Sex and drugs my anthology on perfection Dress superb, admired by conspirists Who wanna try me but ain´t high enough to 4-5 me up
Child of the 80s, y´all niggas is lazy Complainin´ ´bout labor pains nigga show me the baby And my nigga Game light another L, pass the bottle Pro-black I don´t pick cotton out a aspirin bottle Yeah I learned my lessons and heard y´all snitchin´ Witnessin´ you rockin wit´ narcs confirmed my suspicion Green fatigues on, my niggas I´ll bleed for ´em I can show ´em the water but can´t make ´em drink it And I can show them my fortunes but can´t force ´em think rich And still I don´t abort ´em when and if they sink quick
Ignore the ignorance I rep the brilliance of Queensbridge And pray the feds let Murder Inc. live
[Marsha Ambrosius] To everybody who knows my story To all of those who came before me My time is now, I´m gon´ do it all over again Ain´t nothin´ new ain´t nothing change I´m still gonna do it my way Yeah I still remain So tell me why you hate the game So tell me why you hate the game This time I do it better just because [The Game] I don´t talk about my guns nigga I Just Blaze
[The Game]
´Pac is watchin´ B.I.G. is listenin´ While Pun talkin´ to us Jam Jay still spinnin´ To every nigga listenin´, I was supposed to be amongst kings My mom shouted out at my christenin´ And while you still listenin´, Shyne locked in a manhole And Cam got shot inside his Lambo, it´s ample Life is a gamble, 15 years old, red rag around my head My sisters used to laugh and call me Rambo Seen Eazy´s legacy melt away like a candle I rekindled the flame, Dre created The Game Nigga Wit a Attitude, from the cloth I came Young homie ate his way up from the bottom of the food chain Keep the crown, clown. I rock a L.A. Dodger fitted
Showed my ass at Summer Jam but New York was down wit´ it Now the ball´s in my court never dribble out of bounds wit´ it Behind the back to Nas he alley oop to Jigga, nigga
[Marsha Ambrosius] To everybody who knows my story To all of those who came before me My time is now, I´m gon´ do it all over again Ain´t nothin´ new ain´t nothing change I´m still gonna do it my way Yeah I still remain So tell me why you hate the game So tell me why you hate the game This time I do it better just because [The Game]
Check it, me and nasty puffin´, it´s a classic trust me I even pass the dutchie to them niggas that don´t love me I´m talkin´ niggas that never wanted to see me on top Same niggas that never wanted to see The Doctor´s Advocate drop Flop, I think not, I fuck you rap niggas like virgins Dre took my trainin´ wheels off it´s curtains I don´t need no encore no claps no cheers The Game ain´t over this the beginning of my career The endin´ of yours the endin´ of his Like Flavor Flav´s clock, I´m back to handle my biz Nigga it´s Game time that was Dre´s favorite line
Back when Proof was in the booth and I recited his lines And I still think about my nigga from time to time Make me wanna call 50 and let him know what´s on my mind But I just hold back cause we ain´t beefin´ like that He ain´t B.I.G. and I ain´t ´Pac we just eatin´ off rap One love
[Marsha Ambrosius] To everybody who knows my story To all of those who came before me My time is now, I´m gon´ do it all over again Ain´t nothin´ new ain´t nothing change I´m still gonna do it my way
