9th Wonder
Just Don’t Speak
[Verse 1: Joe Scudda]
When I talk, don't speak just listen
Like music, I give you the guidelines, just use it
Remember where they came from, I'm the coach
So shut the fuck up if you want in the game, son
Or I'll have to put you in your place, the right mind
Get your own style, why you wanna ride mine?
Bitin' off more than you can chew
Fuck with me, I'll fuck wit' you
And I don't care who the fuck wit' you
Girly dudes, some real squirly dudes
Messin' 'round, hit you early dudes
Trust me, don't believe me? Rush me
I don't care about them guns you say you got 'cause your aim rusty
You're not real, how dare you test me?
You get your balls from Pacino and Joe Pesci
TV rappers, rip kids off like CD rappers (Nooo!)
Not the young scrapper or L.E.G. or Rapper Pooh
We're hitting now, what the fuck y'all really wanna do?
Nothing, stop fronting, start walking
Grab a fucking seat and just stop talking

[Hook: Joe Scudda]
If you see me at the bar
Just don't speak
When you see me in the car
Just don't speak
Oh, we used to go to school?
Just don't speak
Me and you was never cool
Just don't speak
Oh, you used to know my brother
Just don't speak
That don't mean you know Scudda
Just don't speak
Oh, you wanna hold something?
Just don't speak
Leg, let 'em know something
Just don't speak
[Verse 2: L.E.G.A.C.Y.]
Don't speak like No Doubt
The all-pro team, another blow-out
I'm saying what happened, I'm saying fuck rappin'
It's too sick, I don't give a shit who spits
Bastard, you see that? I'm ill enough to fuck up
Any rapper that breathes air, foul how I want it
Y'all riches, now, I must evolve, bitches
Halle Berry lookalikes to valley scary crooked dykes
I get it, girl's a gigolo
A different world like Piccolo, never fade
Why don't you get away, it's best that way
Never know what I might say, yo, I'm unpredictable
The top guns get at you, we Three Times Dope
EST with a dime of coke
On the frontline our hopes
That you're acting like a mime, but you spoke

[Hook 2: L.E.G.A.C.Y.]
When you see me in the spot
Just don't speak
If you see me on top
Just don't speak
Chase me, never talk
Just don't speak
J League, better watch
Just don't speak
If you see me in the street
Just don't speak
Yeah, 9th do beats
Just don't speak
If we ain't fam
Just don't speak
If you see me in Missi-Ann
Just don't speak
[Verse 3: Rapper Big Pooh]
The lead star tackle
Straight hands, don't wanna hassle
Swim move in your ear, hoe, hear me smack you
Or crapshoot when you're dealing with the shrewd, n***a
Nickname Casino Brown, I'm a huge figure
Post up where the MCs at
Nobody's dope, everybody just rap, they watching videos
Google live by the finest hoes
Cartier, flashing little neckwear, is really getting [?]
Take a seat, watch this pro do it
You remind me of Jamar Simpson Gayle, n***as just blew it
I smoke using like the finest green
Blazing up with the realest team, we getting high, n***as (Getting high)
Sometimes, I wonder what's your thoughts like
You couldn't bear witness to this and believe that your shit tight
You probably find it hard to sleep nights
Don't speak, cop the CD, n***a, this what we rock like

[Hook 3: Rapper Big Pooh]
If you see me in the club
Just don't speak
You never did show me love
Just don't speak
Who the fuck I look like?
Just don't speak
Yeah, we nice with this mic
Just don't speak
I never saw you at the shows
Just don't speak
Hands up, any row
Just don't speak
It's fuck y'all for now on
Just don't speak
Check it out, my word is born
Just don't speak
