Look right here, this how we goin' do this
Hook up the turn tables, Woof get on the keyboard
And we gon' run this one, ya heard?
Eh eh, check it out (This Cash Money chemistry, baby)

Cash Money (what you say, boy? 500 Degreez)
Cash Money

Cash Money

Hey, let me slide in the Benz with the fished-out fins (come on)
Hit the mall wit my girlfriends, dish out ends (come on)
'Cause you know it ain't tricking if you got it (nope)
Copped baby girl what she desired
It's chump change ma, marijuana scholar
Knowin' what I got up in my Styrofoam cup, that purple stuff (okay)
It was given to me at birth to stunt (okay)
So that's why I cop the Bentley with the leather and the fur in the guts

Hey, hold on, mami, them whips on dubs (hold on, mami)
Cadillac truck, 28's, no rub (no rub)
Slide in the Benz, fins, bubble-eyed lens
Car show in New York, y'all know who wins
It's the Birdman daddy, with the Gucci and Prada
Slant back cup truck, no rims, can't holla
It's that Louis, Fendi, on Ostrich streets
It's the tailor-made daddy, mami do you love me?

Baby, I'm a stunna
I ain't gon' change it (I told y'all)
Don't you know it's a way of life? (I told y'all)
Mami, do you want it?
'Cause I'm about to bring it (I told y'all)
Oh baby, can't stop the stuntin', no no (bring back that beat)

Pop one, pop two with them new Nike shoes (yeah)
Royal blue Jag' on them 22's (22's)
Flip white to green, 500 Degreez
In that Cadillac truck on them 23's (23's)
I'm the boss of the game with the money and fame
All these naked women that pop champagne
And these marble floors stay high as Rick James
And if you know my name then you know my game

It's Lil Woadie from the Hot Block with serious flow (serious flow)
Gotta get dough, 'cause y'all won't feel me, bro (feel me, bro)
But, y'all don't hear me though (hear me though)
'Til I'm rolling down my window where my grill is show
And you know I probably pump it through the hood on them 24's
Word, rims poking out the side of the err
Glock have ya ribs poking out the side of your shirt
I'm a 17 nigga and I ride through the turf (Hollygrove)

Baby, I'm a stunna (I told y'all)
I ain't gon' change it
Don't you know it's a way of life? (I told y'all)
Mami, do you want it?
'Cause I'm about to bring it
Oh baby, can't stop the stuntin', no no

Hey, and my pinky glow 'cause my rings is so
Blingy, blingy, yo, stop blinking though
We smoke stinky stinky dro
And we don't cop them incey wincey O's
And we don't stop, nah, we blow, fuck the people
Everywhere we go we smell like, "Ew"
Birdman, my Pa so that make me go
Fly like an eagle, fasheezy

See they think 'cause I stay English turn
That Stunna don't have a OZ to burn (light it up)
I go in each store and ball like a dog (yeah)

Cars on the streets, all on the lawn
Ice in my teeth, all on my arms
Tats in my face, my back and my arms (what)
Tats in my face, my back and my arms

Baby, I'm a stunna (I told y'all)
I ain't gon' change it
Don't you know it's a way of life?
Mami, do you want it?
'Cause I'm about to bring it
Oh baby, can't stop the stuntin', no no (check me out)

Yo, there it is, ya lil' low life
See, I'm a professional, you a rookie
Fuckin' game so serious I could sell a hooker some pussy
Nah, that's some serious shit
Oh yeah, believe that
Who we rolling with?

Oh, I forgot about peace, peace
I mean, piece of pussy, piece of land, piece of property
Just a mind game
Piece of mind, ya know
Piece of something, motherfucker

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
