[Intro: DJ Premier scratches]
"I see..." "Basically over" "I see..." "Basically over" "I seen it"
"I see..." "Basically over" "I seen it"
"Control this rap" "Dunn dunn" "I see..."
[Verse 1: Blaq Poet]
The game's over, Feds took your Range Rover
Your man snitched and your girl's screaming, "I told ya"
About those over the shoulder boulders that you be having
Niggas smile in your face, behind yo' back they backstabbing
Laughing, talkin' 'bout all your business
How much you got to score with, to niggas you went to war with
How many guns you got and where you go to cop
You shoulda seen me coming down the block, you was gettin' hot
But you didn't give a fuck
You make a G in a day and spend it up in a black Benz tinted up
Pound of weed, twist it up, Henny pourin' out your cup
Livin' it up Daddy Warbuck style
[Chorus]
I watched niggas rise, I watched niggas fall down (Fall down)
I seen it all, it went down in my town (Where, where?)
Called Queensbridge, where the fugitives live
Where some rap kids (Rap kids) can turn to bigwigs (Bigwigs)
I watched niggas rise, I watched niggas (Yeah) fall down (Fall down)
I seen it all, it went down in my town (Where, where?)
Called Queensbridge, where the fugitives live
Where some rap kids (Rap kids) can turn to bigwigs (Bigwigs)
[Verse 2: KL]
My niggas rollin' dice and fled, braggin' to the nigga with the slice in his head
Now there's a price on his head
For pullin' out on little bro, flashin' his heat, he askin' for beef
Conference call, ready to brawl
Caught him on a Blaz'a, he breathin' hard like he got asthma
Choice words are spoke, headed for disaster
Last of the grammar I spit
Told him, "Fuck you and whoever you get", he's like, "Whatever, kid"
Fourteen days later – whole team made they way to my block
Young bucks with guns tucked and cocked
Like they runnin' the spot, I'ma load one bullet for all of y'all
You saw it on my face, war ready
I'm callin' the pace, it's gettin' more steady
Don't bite what you can't chew
Dumb little niggas like "That ain't you", yo, recognize what it coulda came to
Put a hole in you, just like a navel
[Chorus]
I watched niggas rise, I watched niggas fall down (Fall down)
I seen it all, it went down in my town (Where, where?)
Called Queensbridge, where the fugitives live
Where some rap kids (Rap kids) can turn to bigwigs (Bigwigs)
I watched niggas rise, I watched niggas fall down (Fall down)
I seen it all, it went down in my town (Where, where?)
Called Queensbridge, where the fugitives live
Where some rap kids (Rap kids) can turn to bigwigs (Bigwigs)
[Verse 3: Hostyle]
Now keeps your eyes on, screwball, these rap dons
Q.B. icons, play the project with a firearm
Fully loaded, I keep a razor that's corroded
I'll slash you with it, 'cause every rhyme is crime committed
Speak it 'cause I did it before, I got on
I dub niggas' moms up 'til they first born
'Til they only child, you pull car you'll get a wild one
I'm at the bottom of the struggle, tryin' to rise, son
A wise one, step ahead, keep my fam fed
Broke bread off this game and I held my head
You want details, then let's negotiate, crack sales
New guns that's watched the game, clientele
Yo, we rock well, we keep our name ringin' bells
From this mic to the street life, we doin' this right
See, we swore to these streets to vibe
And draw heat, fuck a peace sign, a waste of time, respect my nine
[Chorus]
I watched niggas rise, I watched niggas fall down (Fall down)
I seen it all, it went down in my town (Where, where?)
Called Queensbridge, where the fugitives live
Where some rap kids (Rap kids) can turn to bigwigs (Bigwigs)
I watched niggas rise, I watched niggas fall down (Fall down)
I seen it all, it went down in my town (Where, where?)
Called Queensbridge, where the fugitives live
Where some rap kids (Rap kids) can turn to bigwigs (Bigwigs)
[Outro: KL]
What you thought?!
Screw holdin' down the fort
Preemo on the track
What ya'll want now?
It's like dat
Feel it for a minute
