Album: The Future is Now
Title: If You Got Love
{*Pete Rock scratches various samples at the beginning*}
[Verse One]
I used to be a piece of shit `til I dropped it, (?) convict
Straight projects, prophets, that`s the object
Hunger pains spit the beef out, I kick the teeth out
We Non Phixion, up in the club with heaters out
No doubt, insanity the motive, I`m never broke
Body strapped with explosives, suicide bat ya team poseurs
Teenybops rock Tachini tops and arm holsters
Lookin like feds in posters, devils and brokers
I got a lot of love, but if you want hate, I got a lot of guns
You want crack? I got a lot of drugs, it`s kinda bugged
the way the world can make a righteous man turn savage
I try to be peaceful but the world prefer madness
And I`m a business man, supply and demand
Make you feel like when your fam get in a shootout and your man die in your hands
Most dangerous rap group, any question that I ask you
Thug be the answer to the question that`s the truth
[Chorus]
If you got love for your mom - that`s Non Phixion
If you got love for your dogs - that`s Non Phixion
If you got love for the Gods - that`s Non Phixion
What? That`s Non Phixion - What? That`s Non Phixion
If you got love for your peeps - that`s Non Phixion
If you got love for your seeds - that`s Non Phixion
If you got love for the streets - that`s Non Phixion
What? That`s Non Phixion - What? That`s Non Phixion
[Verse Two]
BK to Mount Vernon, money-earnin non-stop
I lost a lot of people, I Reminisce with Pete Rock
Gunnin through public housing, some brothers never get out
I got love for my dawgs, now it`s time to break the fuck out
We pealed out, that`s when I dumb out, three on the hip
I don`t kick bars, I spit scars, shit that I live
And all you platinum cats, I`m about to run in ya fridge
We all about food, belly up, two in ya ribs
Ain`t doin a bid; nah I`d rather hang from a sheet
It`s all love son, prove and let my man speak
Truth is, you never know when it`s your time to go
We all famous and we got files, lettin you know
[Chorus]
[Verse Three]
Aiyyo I seen it all from what the truth should be to what the truth is
I think America been tryin to kill me for two years
But I`m still alive, arrive under heavy surveillance
Eyes be some ol` tel-lie-vision cameras, platinum gangster anthems
Make the world wanna grab the magnum and BUST
All we got is us, our family`s the only one we trust
Chronic and coke, smoke spearmints, study pyramids
Dope in the heroin syringe when you hearin this
I`m like a near death experience
I open up your eyes and your minds to the lies they be givin us
If we don`t kill them, they killin us
And I`m ready to die, but they still can`t kill the love
[Chorus]
{*Pete Rock scratches to end*}
