Pillmatic

[Intro: Boldy James]

No matter what, keep it street

No matter where the record business is going

Or what's trendy or what's hot

Always stay where the streets are

I'm Illmatic talking firm biz to you, baby

227, 55th

Where we at with it?

[Chorus: Boldy James]

I'm pillmatic with the lighters and these Loar tabs (Ayy)

I'm real savage on these thotties and these whorebags (You know)

I'm drillmatic, I got shooters and they more than willin' (Rrra)

I'm pillmatic, all these bloopers and these orange pillies (It's Blocks)

I'm stillmatic with this MAC and two Russians (Uh-huh)

A brick of Lenny Kravitz and them magic school buses (Let's get it)

I'm pillmatic with them Perc 10s and them 80s (Them 80s)

I'm Illmatic, talking firm biz to you, baby

[Post-Chorus: Ambra Denise & Boldy James]

I'm talking firm biz to you, baby (Talking firm biz to you, baby)

Talking 'bout the pharm, that is (I'm Illmatic, talking firm biz to you, baby)

I'm talking firm biz to you, baby

Talking 'bout the pharm, that is, that is, that is, that is for real

[Verse 1: Boldy James]

I'm pillmatic with them smirks and them tangerines (Uh-huh)

Keep a pill cabinet full of syrup, purple, red and green (At home)

I'm still trafficking them chirps with the Medellín

That's highway robbery, Celestine Prophecy (Uh)

ConCreatures, 50 Gwuap, the new state property

Roc-A-Fella Records with them rocks, we a dynasty

Mr. East Warren Buffett, Big Daddy Warbucks (Eastside)

Maxwell, house of double coffee cup from Starbucks (Ayy)

Stack twelve thousand in Milwaukee when them arms touch

I need another foreign, couple of sprinters and a tour bus (Cha-ching)

So we can see a quarter-tick in the next twelve months (Gwuap)

Big Gun hit me with some shit, could put a three on it (Yeah)

Tell 'em, "Meet me off of Nottingham," my nigga E want it (Hah)

[Verse 2: Taj Mahal]

Silly-rich future, piss-poor past (Yeah)

Started with them candy bars and them Loar tabs (That work)

Get it on gone fast, spend a bag then let's sport the loot (I'm on my way)

Knives like a rabbit, in the back, we whipping turtle coupes (Yeah)

Businessman and I ball like a hoop in a suit (Ballin')

Bitch asked me what I do, "I just get to the blue" (Yeah)

She know grind, time to shine, so we knockin' the boots

Laborin' them orange pills, I'm enjoyin' the fruits (Gwuap)

Mr. Pillmatic, you want it? 'Cause I still got it

Fly as fuck all my life but I still traffic (I'm trafficking)

I've been getting to the skrill and I'm still active

Tour coming to your city, called Pill Traction (Gwuap)

Making everything stop when it's go time

I'm in my bag next to the work—oxymoron

All this mud in my double I could pour a puddle (Juice)

Like H1 in the crib, guaranteed to bubble (Bro)

[Verse 3: Boldy James]

A hundred hundred dollar bills, five hundred blues (Cha-ching)

Two hundred hundred morphines, five hundred orange (You know)

So get your umbrellas out 'cause the coming storm (Ayy, ayy)

Never went to college but I cut the blow with the dorm (Blocks)

Old school pay me to cook up for him

He know I'ma put on a show in the kitchen when I perform (Skrrt, skrrt)

Pull up in DeLorean, got these niggas shook off of the shake (Ayy)

Tap dance on them yams, let the soda cook off of the base (Yeah)

Rock 'em with the MAC, drop 'em in the trap (Drop)

Fuck the money, homicide season bodies getting stacked (Doo-doo)

Hully Gully, sliding with the strap, choppa twist his hat, no cap (Click-clack)

Hit him with some shit that stop him in his tracks

It's the feioso from the six, but I be on siete (Seven)

Grew up on the one with the Gualas and the Eses (The one)

Shot a thousand big moons, 40 North of jefe (Uh-huh)

Free my cousin Spoony, FEDs gave that boy a decade (We still)
