Respect (The Grind Date Mix)

[Chorus]

So far I've come to find

There's no one here, life I fear

I came for nothing, they have gone

Nobody-

So far I've come to find

There's no one here, life I fear

I came for nothing, they have gone

Nobody-

So far I've come to find

There's no one here, life I fear

I came for nothing, they have gone

Nobody-

[Verse 1: Dave]

Hey, yo, I'm proud to be Black, y'all, wish I could bring Jay back

DJ put the needlе to the haystack

Pump beats like '86 pumpеd crack

Raise the heat for the summer, we Fahrenheit

Banners like cash on your corner, papered and OD

Make your girl wanna shake in front of little ol' me

Even when I'm rock bottom, still the most poppin

Hold crops like John on the farm, then Johnny your Fox

Boxcutter clean cut stem from the PA

Not your everday outcast, we outlast

Used to bust a tommy gun, now I blast off with a check

Might as well, I done earned the respect

[Chorus]

So far I've come to find

There's no one here, life I fear

I came for nothing, they have gone

Nobody-

So far I've come to find

There's no one here, life I fear

I came for nothing, they have gone

Nobody-

[Verse 2: Pos & Dave]

Here to jumpstart the art again

The sparkplug W-O-N

I trouble your whole squad again

In a class by myself, so selfish in my ways

Shave my head bald, I'm too fly for toupes

Ain't nuttin sweet yet, never actin bitter

Shut your spitter small fry, you too dry to wet me

And if you could, you think I'd really let you?

In and out the hood, I get much respect DUE

Got two {?} Supa Dave bandana

Shut your camera lens and use your senses

Recognize it's Pos, Mase and me

Stressin R-E-S-P-E-C-T, see?

[Chorus]

So far I've come to find

There's no one here, life I fear

I came for nothing, they have gone

Nobody-

So far I've come to find

There's no one here, life I fear

I came for nothing, they have gone

Nobody's home

No one's home

No one's home

[Verse 3: Pos]

B-boys, got to love them b-boys

They wanted to be the man, expand and destroy

They gave up mock necks for Glocks and TECs

While we kept it Magnetic like Kool Keith and Ced

Don't play me, youngin, play my record instead

It's the Soul, you know us as De La

You know us to say hi to them ladies, are ripe for the picking

Don't discriminate, we do head grabs and tickets

Sneaking up on you like two shots of Patron

This is grown man music but still the young use it

I know the ledge to keep the street on the edge of they seat

Like Red knockin' heat out of the park!

[Chorus]

So far I've come to find

There's no one here, life I fear

I came for nothing, they have gone

Nobody-

So far I've come to find

There's no one here, life I fear

I came for nothing, they have gone

Nobody-

So far I've come to find

There's no one here, life I fear

I came for nothing, they have gone

Nobody-

So far I've come to find

There's no one here, life I fear

I came for nothing, they have gone

Nobody-
