[Prodigy]
Listen!
[Chorus: repeat 2X]
Iâve been doin this long before you
And Iâll be still doin this long after you
Letâs not forget, the Mobb donât play that shit
We take this more serious than just music
[Prodigy]
(âI told yâall!â) Iâm not the best
Iâm the best of all time, cominâ out of New York
Big poâ in your mouth nigga fuck your talk
Big Don Perginon P holds the fort
Iâm Top Rank, Mayweather, Golden Boy
You just a Friday Night Fight, up in B.B. Kings
Undercard-ass rappers wanna step in the ring
And get washed up, just so they can get that purse
I got the main event thirst, to headline a concert
These new niggaz come and they go, before long your
Favorite rapper gettingâ real beside his self
Nigga made a lot of money, now he ridin self
Ooh~! Thatâs so not cool, that might be gay
Iâm disappointed at yâall fallin for the hsit that he say
Thought you had better tase, I thought I raised you well
Iâm amazed at the shit, that yâall claim is ill
[Chorus:]
Iâve been doin this long before you
And Iâll be still doin this long after you
Letâs not forget, the Mobb donât play that shit
We take this more serious than just music
[Prodigy]
(âI told yâall!â) Iâm not the greatest Iâm
The greatest of all time, I deserve my spot
Rappers be jumin the gun, they get ahead of theyself
They get a taste of this lime life and lose they cool
I used to be a douchebag asshole too
Millionaire at 19, did what you try and do
I ainât gotta dress like a weirdo for star power
And I ainât build my career on rap drama
Now my physical frame attractive, I look good
And my songs is hot, no gimmicks Iâm just hood
Queensbridge âtil my death box, from my sweatsocks
Up to my skull cap, Iâm gullier than Lennox
Yeah! Donât bring scared business, around me
My 16 hard like Rockwilder and mastered
Iâm Godâs avatar, box protégé
I write a cannon puzzle, of paradox pays
Thought you had better taste, I thought I raised you well
Iâm amazed at the shit, that yâall claim is ill
[Chorus:]
Iâve been doin this long before you
And Iâll be still doin this long after you
Letâs not forget, the Mobb donât play that shit
We take this more serious than just music
[Prodigy]
(âI told yâall!â) Iâm not the infamous, Iâm
The most infamous there ever will be in rhyme
I, a.k.a., E.B.J.
But you can call me Big Boy Bars, for the time being cause
Ellsworth Bumpy goes hard in the paint
Like Iâm losin in the Finals and, itâs the last game
All I hear is Feddy Mercury, singin my theme
All Iâm thinkin is, celebration and victory
Ready to take on the world who want it with this nigga?
Sergeant songs, Captain Hooks, the big boss
Of reality rap, you just yappin your jaws âbout
Bodies you never caught, kiâs you never bought
Tours you never did, monies you never saw
You wanna be everything I was
Am, and ever will be understand that
You wanna be everything I am
Was, and ever will be, just keep in mind that
[Chorus:]
Iâve been doin this long before you
And Iâll be still doin this long after you
Letâs not forget, the Mobb donât play that shit
We take this more serious than just music
(âI told yâall!â) (3x to fade)
