Listen to me everybody, I got a story to tell
Well, well

Ono wanna beef with that steam fish?
Tell your artist, keep my name out your mouth or you won't have no peace
Compared to Canibus your pit bulls are poultry
You and Biggie made a dope team, but I'll roast Beans
So be careful how you approach things
My name ain't J-to-the-mwa, man I got a flow that stings
It's rap music, you confuse it if you want to
I might still diss you just to see what you gonna do
You must be getting insecure or something
I'm just admiring your shit man, I ain't gonna touch it
I been through a lot of things in my life but I learned from it
Put yourself in my shoes, don't I deserve something?
The only difference between me and you is a budget
Don't make me have to go and sign with Suge or something
Remember this, history repeats itself
Whenever that never-ending hunger meets itself
Everybody want their wealth, peace and health
When I was fucked up you didn't give a couple G's to help
Did you? No, you waited for my cheese to melt
You want all the hot beats and the streets to yourself
Well, my patronymic is different enough to attract interest
From anybody in the rap business and I'ma get it cash or credit
Besides a little drama with my first two records
Rip the Jacker's image is unblemished
Come on, I wouldn't bite you, I look at you like my dentist
I thought you was number one recommended, why you offended?
Hip Hop ain't your property, you ain't the only tenant
If I win the lottery you can't tell me how to spend it
You got something to say don't put your henchmen in it
Your little monkey-faced artists that you signed for pennies
I refuse to serve 'em like Denny's, you know they rhymes is petty
Don't tell me that your school of Hard Knocks turned preppy
None of you mother fuckers know me and you never met me
And if my name wasn't shit then you wouldn't sweat me
That's absurd right, me getting busy get on your nerves right?
You really are listening to the words right?
High when I wrote this but sober when I spoke it
It's not like I tried to promote it like Jay-O did
You notice? Man I was never focused on you
I just spit hard on the mic 'cause my shit is hot too
I went out and bought your album two times I ain't hating
Next thing I know you're talking Jamaican like you're a native
But you're really violating, you don't know what you saying
Canibus ain't in the game so you know he ain't playing
I had nothing before and I have nothing now
Fucking with a nigga with nothing only brings you down

Listen to me everybody-rybody-rybody-rybody...
