Represent

Ya' listenin' to Elmatic
 Fire that weed up and put it in the air
 Represent, represent (x4)
 Straight up shit is real and and any day could be your last when you pass
 Your sand has dropped now your hourglass in the flash
 The corners is where they pitch rock
 To move into a rich block
 Find somebody up in your crib
 You gotta' switch locks
 Niggas pull triggers and ditch Glocks
 Over things a bitch jock
 As sick as a Hitchcock flick
 To be a big shot, looks appealing
 The life of crooks getting money off the books, fuck a shook civilian
 We took the illing and mistook the feeling
 Of climbing to the top, stay in when you don't know where the cops laying
 Loading guns, pop, spraying
 Just to get the hands on your clock to stop swaying
 Enough to cause both of your knees to drop praying and niggas stop playing
 Cause I was told to represent
 By OG's claiming the D and repping Flint
 Pushing old school whips on 20s they kept in tint
 Represent, represent (x4)
 They call me El, I'm not your legal type of fella
 Bong smoker
 pipe inhaler
 keep a strong poker
 Face, playing my cards right,
 Cops will run in your place for hard white, treat you wrong, poke ya
 I know these snitches telling in fact
 I'm smelling a rat and the aroma is quite thick
 They shut down your light lick bright quick
 Charging you with shit that might stick
 Frank White
 All you little niggas with locs on
 Counting your figures, downing liquors, getting your smokes on
 For the hood putting your city on the map
 Young girls throw they
 kitty
 and they titties on your lap
 Catch you slipping while you tricking
 Stick the clip in, to get paid and leave you sicker than that AIDS symptom
 They play your man like fools, feel the heat from the tools
 Empty your wallet take off your jewels, you know the rules
 Represent, represent (x4)
 See my stacks is fat, this is what it's about
 Ice Cube conflict with MC Ren
 Around the time when 3rd Bass was dissed by X-Clan
 I used to wake up every morning with
 my ear in a box
 , Kane, Finesse, Freddie Foxxx
 the Nas CD
 GangStarr
 the Lox
 Now-a-days I need the greening of cash just like the next man
 Using my mind to make shit move, just like an X-Man
 I'm talking checks, grands, commas and zeros
 Growing up, my heroes palm firearms at dineros
 Some of them went to jail, got life in the cell
 Others got death, dwelling in Hell, most of 'em fail
 When you laying low and the police is hot on your trail
 Do you think of suicide or are you plotting for bail?
 This is words of wisdom from El
 Try to rise up above
 Keep an eye out for snakes, represent, one love
 Represent, represent (x4)
