(Hook x4)
I just, speak my piece, keep my peace
Cubans with the Jesus piece, with my peeps
Packing, my piece, Jesus
Packing, my piece, Jesus
(Verse: Common)
I'm iller than most, sick with it, feelin' the dose
In a butter soft leather but I'm still with the toast
Toast to brawls, you know, the millions is close
Feel the ghost of Notorious, tell me who the naughty is
She get live like an audience, I do what I do, no need to state the obvious
Poli' with girls with bodies like uh, poli' in hotel lobbies
Light a J, it's just me and Marley, look at the poster
Do what I supposed to for the culture
Early b-boy, down with d-boys, build to destroy
My pride 'n joy is my daughter named Omoye
Ye, that's my nigga from back in the day
All that whoop-de-wah-whop, man, fuck what they say!
Played the lotto for my gran' with a bottle in hand
Lay it down for the world, for Chicago I stand, and
(Hook x2)
I just, speak my piece, keep my peace
Cubans with the Jesus piece, with my peeps
Packing, my piece, Jesus
Packing, my piece, Jesus
(Verse: Common)
Yeah, yeah, they like that, I write raps from on top of the world
Popular girls always wanna pop in my world
I pop out in the boroughs
And go to L.A. to get hay
In the middle of the barn with a princess I lay
Yo, this time of shit happens every-hmm, once in a while
You know I won't front with the style
Bring life to the party like a woman and child
From the land of the humble and proud, summers is wild
Ah! Made the unmadeable! Ah! Go to parties I'm paid to go!
Me and Cuzzo talked the hustle
About doing good business like Rick and Russell
You I know I guzzle red wine till it's bed time
On my paper like headlines, she want the head shine
Er'time, my time, the streets is watchin' like a Rollie
Do it for the hometown and the homies, uh
(Hook x8)
I just, speak my piece, keep my peace
Cubans with the Jesus piece, with my peeps
Packing, my piece, Jesus
Packing, my piece, Jesus
