Boldy James
Platinum & Palladium
[Intro]
My highly trained Strattonites, my killers
My killers who will not take no for an answer
[Verse 1]
You're now swimming in infested waters
Down in these parts, it get the deadliest
I wear the crown, so my heart weigh the heaviest
Built for this shit, I'm pressure-fit, re-up, then I repress a brick
I grab that jelly jar, then I shock it like a jellyfish
Can't name a n***a better than this 227 veteran
Auntie been closet-smoking though my AP is a skeleton
From shopping at Marshalls to who thеy sent the marshals after
Still undеr martial law though, I'm the ghetto Marshall Mathers
Never practiced martial arts, was too advanced from the start
Had a spot around the corner from Advanced Auto Parts
Came a long way ducking narcs, me and Shan at the park
Wops said we need a press, told 'em to hand me a scarf
Took two half zips I separated from the other two halves
A cut that I added, then I two-stepped it with a durag
On Schoolcraft with Sporto, we always had the last laugh
Vacuum-sealing hundreds, counting twenties by the trash bag
Let's get it
[Chorus]
My youngins quick to turn a n***a to a hashtag
For the Jack God, it ain't no telling what can happen
What make it even crazier, I'll get you fat for a ten
My lil' n***a, he gon' spin like he from Tasmania
The devil is a lie, I made him pay for my sins
Ain't know that Satan had a twin, his name was Damien
Who gave his life over to God when he betrayed to him
Who showed him the difference between platinum and palladium
[Interlude]
See those little black boxes? They're called telephones
I'm gonna let you on a little secret about these telephones
They're not gonna dial themselves, okay?
Without you, they're just worthless
[Verse 2]
You're now rocking with the greatest Laker
Quick to shoot my shot like I was Jason Prater
Iced-out techno marine wire aviators
Five bricks in the ceiling, me and lil' mommy chilling
Before a n***a had children, I was the babysitter
Chaperoning on them field trips, I had that maggie on me
Let any n***a play with Blocks, I bet he make the paper
Even the newscaster know them Detroit n***as shoot faster
Say he from the East, it must be two Gratiots
How you ain't thinking what you say before you speak out?
Rock with my gang, I never been the type to reach out
Outside the circle n***as, they don't be outside with us
We know they perfect, tell them n***as turn they savage up
I had enough of pillow-talkers tryna dap me up
Over a mil' in Santanas, tell 'em to add me up
Hate catching cramps in my fingers when I be bagging up
Don't ever let these n***as see your mix after you add the cut
[Chorus]
My youngins quick to turn a n***a to a hashtag
For the Jack God, it ain't no telling what can happen
What make it even crazier, I'll get you fat for a ten
My lil' n***a, he gon' spin like he from Tasmania
The devil is a lie, I made him pay for my sins
Ain't know that Satan had a twin, his name was Damien
Who gave his life over to God when he betrayed to him
Who showed him the difference between platinum and palladium
[Outro]
When I face my problems, I show up in the back of a limo
Wearing a two-thousand-dollar suit and a forty-thousand-dollar gold fucking watch
Let's get it
