Just get out from under the tableI'm not a pimp runnin a stableI'm a kid with a vision runnin a labelWith the freshest MC's with somethin to say tooWe cuttin the umbilical cord from the navelWillin and able to change the game for the betterA lot of crews claim they togetherThen they fall apart and blame it on cheddarPlease~! I stay professional in all my endeavorsSo we about to blow like Parliament in "V for Vendetta"They try to get you with the funny money
