Prodigy of Mobb Deep
Eyes May Shine
[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
[Verse 1]
Look, you could've got away but your response wasn't quick enough
Can't preserve life 'cause the vest wasn’t thick enough
Teflon (Yeah) Napalm (Yeah) Homicide scenes
These are a few of my favourite things! (Yeah)
But I ain't Mary so ain't a damn thing poppin' (Yeah)
Only death disease and a whole lota palm trees (Yeah, tssh, yeah)
Not only for mics, Xzibit is a way of life
Until my death so I celebrate success (Yeah)
Best of the best (Yeah) wouldn't test these waters with a yacht
Sendin' sixteen shots across your parking lot (Yeah, P!)
All up in your proximity drinking Hennessy
Holdin' down ground like the Statue of Liberty
So nobody ever can rush my spot
And the torch stay lit so I ain't worried about shit (Like that)
It ain't where you're from it's all about how you represent!
Unfamiliar faces better know who you fuckin' with
[Chorus]
Eyes may shine, teeth may grit
And all of that shit
And you still won't step
So what's next?
All of a sudden you ain't sayin' nothin'
[You Better off buckin' yourself]
[You need to stop frontin'] (Yeah, yeah)
Eyes may shine, teeth may grit
And all of that shit
And you still won't step
So what's next? (Heh!)
All of a sudden you ain't sayin' nothin'
[You Better off buckin' yourself] (Yeah)
[You need to stop frontin'] (Look)
[Verse 2]
I'm only comin' through when it's time for collection
Xzibit forever nasty, spread like infection
Ain't no protection ever made by man to withstand this punishment
In other words runnin' shit (Yeah!)
Keep your eyes wide cause the style gets darker
I make papers and see more new cars than Bob Barker
And if the price ain't right then it's time to take flight
Let the piece go twice to make sure you see the light
Plus I'm dreaded not by the locks but by the cops
And flocks of females that only think with they crotch (Like)
Unlimited smoke
The bonified cut throat (Huh) Columbian necktie
Now don't you look fly? (Don't you look fly?)
I'll leave you there to be discovered by your mother
Or maybe your brother or your batty boy lover
No matter your background Xzibit never back down (Like that!)
Be prepared for static and semi-automatics in your grill
[Chorus]
Eyes may shine, teeth may grit
And all of that shit
And you still won't step
So what's next? (Like!)
All of a sudden you ain't sayin' nothin'
[You Better off buckin' yourself]
[You need to stop frontin'] (Yeah, yeah, P!)
Eyes may shine, teeth may grit
And all of that shit
And you still won't step
So what's next? (What's next?)
All of a sudden you ain't sayin' nothin'
[You Better off buckin' yourself]
[You need to stop frontin']
[Verse 3]
Yes, everything that come around go 3.6.0
Longitude and latitude
It's all in the attitude
I'm in the mood to put a twist on things
Xzibit here to rock the planet 'till the fat bitch sings
Shit is closer than you think
Don't blink it might be over in a matter of seconds
(Huh, huh, huh)
I'd like to say this off the record
But it's not (Not)
So I testify to the fact
Chron' mixed with the Yak make a hellified contact (Hah!)
It makes it easy for a n***a to trip
Unload the whole clip on your block then split! (Like that)
Ain't no answers to the test you taking
Never move fakin'
Can't be shaken
From a solid foundation like this
[Chorus]
Eyes may shine, teeth may grit
And all of that shit
And you still won't step
So what's next? (Huh)
All of a sudden you ain't sayin' nothin'
[You Better off buckin' yourself] (Yeah)
[You need to stop frontin'] (Yeah)
Eyes may shine, teeth may grit
And all of that shit
And you still won't step
So what's next? (What's next?)
All of a sudden you ain't sayin' nothin'
[You Better off buckin' yourself]
[You need to stop frontin'] (Yeah)
