Lloyd Banks
Element of Surprise
[Verse 1]
Uh, start the pay homage discussion, y'all n***as cloned me, cousin
You climbing up in the ranks, but I'm big homie punchin'
Retired three of my jerseys, Ginóbili, Tony, Duncan
Got a low tolerance lately, these nosy hoes is something
Picture me stuck in my era, a frozey pose assumption
My twenty-four's a mamba bite, with eights I'm Kobe dunkin'
I helped you all off the strength of my heart, you owe me nothin'
They all the same, can't tell 'em apart with Rollies frontin'
How you gon' threaten me with rеlevance? I left alrеady
Separated from entertainment, now my head is steady
The industry can SMD, I keep the letters ready
Always been disciplined, the dedication's necessary
You gas your favorite to bait me, I'll make a casket out him
Don't compare me to n***as without a classic album
It don't matter how long I'm missin', they'll ask about him
Fuck all that new drip, jewelry under my jacket drownin'
[Chorus]
You want a hundred thousand dollar wrist (Like this)
Better be careful, it goes down around this bitch (One miss)
Gotta be mindful that the women out here switch (Real quick)
Don't let 'em blind you, you'll be out here laying stiff (Real stiff)
Handle your business, it ain't worth you lookin' cool (Lookin' cool)
It won't be funny when the dollars chasing you (Chasing you)
They drop some money on your head, you gon' be food
If you ain't got your shit together, think it through
Be careful, fool
[Verse 2]
Uh, planning my come up and jottin' names is all I've been doing
Blame my society, it made me a horrible human
Started improving, effects of a honorable student
You'd rather be the boss of nothing than part of a movement
Shit, I'm just really getting started, Cubans over my Caesar
Jordan killed n***as with his shot, they shootin' over his sneakers
Winning and tragedies go hand-in-hand, I know the procedure
I'm associated with dangerous n***as, no misdemeanors
Father a senior, made me a junior, I brung the third
Cocky and arrogant, they don't respect a humble word
They put that voodoo on me, gotta overcome the curse
Serve you concussions with the rear end of my Thunderbird
Dick ridin' is clout-chasin', I wish them n***as dead
And a thot is the new chickenhead
A half a pound of gelato just for the clique to spread
Never had a pot to piss, now it's lobster bisque
[Chorus]
You want a hundred thousand dollar wrist (Like this)
Better be careful, it goes down around this bitch (One miss)
Gotta be mindful that the women out here switch (Real quick)
Don't let 'em blind you, you'll be out here laying stiff (Real stiff)
Handle your business, it ain't worth you lookin' cool (Lookin' cool)
It won't be funny when the dollars chasing you (Chasing you)
They drop some money on your head, you gon' be food
If you ain't got your shit together, think it through
Be careful, fool
