Make A Move (Original)

[Intro: DMX]

Yeah-yeah

Wild moves a hustler's gots to make

To get that cake

And if you fake, or you a snake

Then get bagged by jake

And that's how that's goin' down

Let me holla at you, yo

[Verse 1: DMX]

It's two o'clock and I'm just about to hit the streets

Until I knock off this rock, I don't get to eat

Sometimes it's like that's the only reason why I hustle

Step on toes, strong-arm and show a little muscle

It ain't no real dough, that's why a nigga feel so frustrated

I hate it, seein' crab niggas that made it

And I'm robbin' niggas just as broke as myself

Livin foul and ain't lookin out for my health, where's the wealth?

It ain't in New York, cause niggas talk about going out of state

Money got an eighth, comin back, coppin' a lot of weight

Where's my plate nigga? I'm hungry too

So I'ma do like hungry do (what?) and get a hungry crew

Niggas that ain't never had, and doing bad

Will be glad to get up off they stoop, lookin sad

Grab your bags, it's about to go down

We going to this hicktown, let's get the low-down, on how they get down

I gots to make a move and make it soon (uh-huh!)

I gots to take the block and make it boom (c'mon!)

I gots to make a move and make it soon (what?)

I gots to take the block and make it boom (c'mon?)

(DMX)

I gots to make a move and make it soon

Gots to take the block and make it boom

We comin through so make some room

Found something that could be something if I pump it up

This kid Black is the only thing that could fuck it up

His purple top, thirty-five smalls is ringin' bells

But I'ma crush him with the black 40 double-L's

I send two niggas back up top, and come back

We chop up rock, by midnight, we open up shop

It's four in the morning, I'm still on the block creepin

Killin the cash, while yo' ass is sleeping

Look here, I'm what they call a true hustler

Cause nigga if I ain't know you since I was like six

Then I don't trust ya

And we'll bust ya over somethin petty like two dollars

Put something hot up in that ass and watch you holla (Ahhhhh!)

You think I'm here for the hoe flow? I want the dough flow

And fuck the po'-po', a nigga keep a fo'-fo'

I gots to make a move and make it soon (uh-huh!)

I gots to take the block and make it boom (c'mon!)

I gots to make a move and make it soon (what?)

I gots to take the block and make it boom (c'mon?)

(DMX)

I spend my money on niggas cause niggas get me rich

And a bitch ain't doin shit but sucking my dick

Niggas is family now, and we stand strong

Thirty niggas over six blocks, making the cash long

Shit is good, because niggas gettin' what they been wantin'

And we see the same shit, up in New York niggas frontin'

Stick up kids hunting, but I ain't got no love for 'em

I keep the burner and the duster with the gloves for 'em

Them motherfuckin knockers come at us and chop us

And I know they, really tryin to stop us, they wanna drop us

So we pump, from the alley

And the last house we use as a cash house

Is holding up strong as a stash house

I got runners that run for twelve hour shifts

And when them niggas keep they count correct, I don't riff

Cause I ain't tryin to hear that "nigga took your pack" shit

I ain't tryin to hear jack shit, you fucking black bitch

I ain't a greedy nigga, all I want is a five year run

And if I don't make it, then fuck it, let me die near a gun

Got bitches to transport without an escort

I'm makin moves from D.C. up to Westport

Local police ain't a problem cause they don't even stress ya

It be them ATF niggas that have you under pressure

So you know, I ain't gon' never put my Glock down (why nigga?)

Cause I'm a hustler motherfucker, and I'm holding my block down

I gots to make a move and make it soon (uh-huh!)

I gots to take the block and make it boom (c'mon!)

I gots to make a move and make it soon (uh-huh)

I gots to take the block and make it boom (c'mon?)
