[Intro: JID]
Yo, what's good? This is kid JID, and I'm here at the 2017 Hip Hop Awards Cypher with the homies, Kodie Shane, Cozz and Ali Tomineek. Yo, DJ Premier drop that, bruh
[Verse 1: Cozz]
Look, I'm tired of ****** rolling around like they've been holding it down
When I been picking it up, you must be joking around
For months I ain't spoke a sound, but I'm back in the mac, been crafting that crack
That'll have 'em gasping and asking if they can have it, nah
Just tryna do better and switch up a few letters
You know, from EBT to BET
I be E.T., ain't expect to see me speak
Right in front your TV screen, I'm cold, at
Twenty-years-old made Cozz & Effect and got respect and now watch when I drop Effected
You probably gon' drop a pendant, that's off the chain
I paid my dues [?]
Got a lot to lose and a lot to gain and that's not gon' change
No regrets as I write these songs
Just continue to spit fire as my life drag on
You barely would last a round, better kill that quick
You scary ****** is clowns and you still ain't It, gone
[Verse 2: Kodie Shane]
They say money don't make the man but, damn, I'm makin' money
Spent bands on Rick Owens, I'm laughing at my opponents
Put a big wheel out and I bet that she hoppin' on it
I know they want me to fail and they gon' keep waiting on it
Put the faucet on my neck and let it rinse, I'm balling, ain't no defence
You ****** play on the bench, lookin' at me while I switch
Gears, I am so unfazed and, baby
I don't have no fear, uh, please don't touch my [?] and baby
Please don't touch my hair, I think them girls with me so let 'em in, I don't care
I know that they really not my friends, I'm aware
Somebody peekin' through the window, we ain't scared
We ain't scared, hahaha
[Verse 3: Ali Tomineek]
Yo, ayy, check
I ain't sorry for the way I came into this ring
Enter the Dragon, Bruce Lee how I'm kicking this thing
Check the name, it's Ali, never miss when I swing
Anything that I spit'll [?], stick with the [?]
I shook a beat, I'm from the stars like a Wookie be
Now they asked for the booking fee, I'm very amazed
Yo, what's happening? Look and see, my area changed
I guess I'm Kaepernick, took a knee and married the game
That's why BET callin', they aware I'm [?]
Be very afraid, my thoughts kinda get carried away
I swear that my brain's wearing a cape, preparing for Sway
It's operation domination 'til I'm buried away
My barriers break, can't be confined, I ain't gonna lie
They get declined, overstepping over statements of mine
Maxine with the way that I rhyme, I'm reclaiming my time
If my cypher was longer you would say I'm the greatest alive, ah
Yeah
[Verse 4: JID]
Um, look
Scribble the ritual, show me a sicker individual
'Cause time critical, sensitive, rigorous training
Venomous fangs, my teeth clench, I envision a pain
You feel is insane but I been the same
I've been away for many days, channellin' my behaviour
Hasta lue-go back to Africa they say
Pack a bag but ****** grab a Gat for the melee
[?] to the races like Ricky Bobby or Tay-K
Your favorite rapper act like Sheneneh holding a chopper
I never sold work but my homie, he really got a
Few pills, lil' white girl in his sock
Never touch that boy like he Afrika Bam-
'Bout to out of here, scram, off of your property, land, BET
JID beastin'. you can't see 'em, I'm paramecium
Pardon me, [?] 'cause I thought I seen [?]
They don't want beef, them boys vegan
Gimme the ring, them boys teethin'
Better put your hands up to the ceiling 'fore them people start squeezin' and find alliances
[?] pistol [?] pledge allegiance, I do defiant shit
Eyeing your shit because I ain't shit, run your diamonds
If you resist then empty the clip, I'm like a scientist
A Black [?], that boy crazy
Jack old ladies, smack your babi—I ain't gon' do that
I'm just playin', we good, haha, yeah
