[Intro: Tek & Steele]
Yo (Yo)
You remember Al? Niggas used to always be bugging back in the day
Niggas used to be buckwilding, right?
Yo, niggas used to be on some, yo
Matter fact, yo, check it out, son, I, I'ma, I'ma kick this shit to my man, kid
So let me hit this first (Aight)
Kick that shit (Yo)
Before I go to bed, I take an L to the head
Reminisce over words that was once said by my man
God rest his soul, I was told stand bold
When under pressure, don't fold
To my brother, my nigga Rambo, you know we love ya
I wish you was around to see us rip through the underground
Smif-N-Wessun dedicates this to my man Sean Grady, the R
One love, baby pa
Yeah, yeah, haha
[Verse 1: Tek]
Grab ahold of your heart and visualize as I kick it
A hollow-point slug comin' out a black biscuit
You inches from death, we 'round the corner comin' quick
We methed out our minds and just don't give a shit
Goddamnit, gun shots we bust from the clip
Wicked bad boy, stash the burner on my hip, so
Fill your oaths and get dead, Mr. Buster
'Cause we ain't got love for none of y'all motherfuckers
Chief the black bar, hard to do a ride-by
You're too leery to live, but you nah waan die
All these MCs with your fancy names and gangs
I know from the heart that it not mean a ting
Big up to all the real heads with the knuckle game
Rest in peace to all my niggas that was murdered and slain
[Refrain: Steele & Tek]
Rest in peace to all my heads, you know what I'm sayin', keepin' it real on the streets, word
To my partners in crime, this is how we do crime (That's my crime partner)
Partners in crime, yeah (Yeah, you know how we do, dun, that's my crime partner)
Partners in crime, every day, back to back (Yo, you got your crime partner?)
Partners in crime (Yeah), yeah (Me and my nigga), no doubt (We crime partners)
[Verse 2: Steele & Tek]
All heads realize (Recognize)
Smif-N-Wessun on the rise (You better recognize)
"All" meaning each and every individual
Who listen to that voice in your head when it be kickin' truth
The heads that represent around the way
Showin' and provin', keepin' it movin' 'til they break day
Realize what's before your eyes
Then see if you see the same real as we
When I say Smif-N-Wessun, this is what I mean
Nothin' alive or in dreams could ever come between
Original Clik, roll through the thin
And when shit got thick, we still managed to stick
Doing crimes with Decepticons of a sign of the times
Help we at times to keep our minds organized
So our knees don't bend (Don't bend)
For the enemy, Tek and me crime partners 'til the end
[Refrain: Tek & Steele]
My partner in crime, yeah, yeah (Rolling thick with my crime partner)
My partner in crime, you know how we get down, yeah (Each and every day, stepping through with my crime partner)
Bucktown, you know we got partners in crime, hah, yeah (Yeah, crime partners)
Everywhere got partners in crime, you know what I'm saying (Keep it real, in the heart, keep it true)
[Verse 3: Steele]
From the heart of where it all started
Bucktown, Boot Camp, representing for all the dearly departed
Next, we coming to speak to the real MCs
'Cause the weak MCs blow in the breeze
Smif-N-Wessun holds the remedy
Running with the Boot Camp on the search for the enemy
And if he happens to be amongst we
Fuck this, we bring him to court and serve justice
[Verse 4: Tek]
See, me and my Clik got a thing going on
True to the game and the love makes us strong
For everyday trials and tribulations
You try to stop us, get rocked by a nation
See, my forefront of soldiers ready to blow ya
Leave your back broke and your body slumped over
The war is on and the stakes is getting high
You kill a man dead if him shit where him lie
It's the code of the streets when you're out with your peeps (Word)
Bumping on the beat, be on-point for the sweeps
Pigs harass that ass for the drug cash
Armageddon soon come, keep the gun stashed
But in the meanwhile, sess ease the stress (Yeah)
Taking gunshots through the nose to the chest
Bless the sensi that get me irie
And all praises due to the almighty
[Refrain: Tek & Steele]
Yeah, no doubt, Smif-N-Wessun representing like this (Partners in crime like this)
For all the heads on the street, walk strong, yeah (No doubt)
Rest in peace to all the heads that's gone (That's gone like this, like that)
Partners in crime (Yeah, and my crime partner)
From the cradle to the grave (Boot Camp Clik doing it like this)
Partners in crime (Hah)
[Verse 5: Steele]
Before I go to bed, I take an L to the head
Reminisce over words that was once said by my man
God rest his soul, I was told stand bold
When under pressure, don't fold
To my brother, my nigga Rambo, you know we love ya
I wish you was around to see us rip through the underground
Smif-N-Wessun dedicate this to my man Sean Grady, the R
One love, baby pa
[Outro: Tek]
One love to my nigga Big Bo like this, yeah
