Play for Keeps

How much must I repeat?

We only play for keeps

No time-outs, no free throws

No refs, no penalties

No handouts, no pit stops

No cheat codes, no sleep

But the drinks are on us

If you with it then pull up a seat

When you're roaming through the jungle

Talk is nothing, talk is cheap

Time is money, money is power

Power corrupts eventually, damn

So what are the options?

What are the choices left for me?

What other rule there's left to break

I guess my faith is a quest for me

Man got a dog and ain't got no leash

Man got a crib, it ain't got no lease

Man got a flow that got no brain

But I still get brain, no hands, no teeth

Nowadays, niggas the killas on the beat

But where I was raised all of the killas

was down the street

Better do your research

Feeling like I fell out of the sky and landed feet first

My squad go hard, my squad go concrete,

watch my team work

Hell yea, you can tell that, the boy fend to

it cause I took my seat first

3 course meal, full entrée, refills and

I want my dessert

So why not make a toast?

Tomorrow could always be worst

Now keep them bottles coming by the kiloliter

And get that Ana off your chest,

try to keep a clean shirt

I'm so grand hustle, you ain't even in my league sir

What's up with these nerds?

They be out here, gettin' their salad's tossed,

gettin' their leaves turned

The game just ain't

what it used to be, the quality is blurred

But a dying breed survived and a dynasty emerged

So put it in the air if you entirely concur

She call me hippie cause I live without any concern

Up on this green earth, I'm on them green herbs

Yea yea yea, I stay in them trees like the keblers

And they say that I look higher in person

As a kid I played in the yard, but now I'm astro turfing

I lived the actual version of the fantasies they utter

Made up stories of threesomes,

they must just be seeing double

Run for cover, here comes trouble

My heart is growing cold so

I gotta sleep with warmer covers

Polar bear pimpin', solar flare spittin'

Somebody tell 'em

that this is professional stuntin' and don't attempt it

Society is twisted, they tryna take us under

So when you see them folks, don't forget

to warn a brother

I made it out alive but still the battle is a struggle

Veni, vidi, vici, I came, I saw, I conquered

They mad cause I murdered the game

And their name wasn't in the will

You see, most of these haters are mad rappers

who's just still waiting on a deal

And they jealous of my success

cause my shoes cost more than their bill

But I'll never sit down at another table unless

I'm invited to the meal

To some it's like conquering mountains,

to me it's like stepping on hills

Remember the images in your mirror

can be bigger than they appear

And the truth can be hard to swallow,

depending the size of the pill

And by the looks it's about the time

that you had your prescription filled

My life, full-length feature presentation

There are no intermissions,

no time for commercial breaking

A fighter in his prime, a legend in the making

There's no debating

when you let your numbers make the statement
