Locksmith With God (feat. Xzibit, Ras Kass & Brevi)
[Brevi]
Beware the company that you keep (God!)
[Locksmith: Verse 1]
I was raised in a different era (what)
The set of values that y'all use could never pair us
Y'all confuse celibrity with integrity, so I regretably, readily expose what's in the mirror
Bitch nigga, what the bidness is?
Fake rappers do more damage than any minstrel did
Now the fairer skin has been peppered in, the era ends
They done got better at coonin' than most these niggas is
Step & fetch some recognition
Do we really like this shit? Or are we victims of repetition?
Every record pitchin', they pickin' the least, most definitive
I don't follow trends, the purposefuly try to limit his
Let's eliminate the label from the genre
Let the labels lactate fate in the form of karma
If you calmly disagree, the label you as a problem
I'mma be a thorn in their side until the embalm him
God...
[Brevi: Chorus]
We walk with God!
Beware the com-pa-ny you keep
Them here to long!
People will recognize family
Walk with God!
People will recognize family
[Xzibit: Verse 2]
I was raised with respect, so I live by a code that was laid by the vets
When y'all niggas pay homage to your ancestors
When y'all niggas be honest, y'all let the man getcha
Tap Dancin', Man-tannin' & spoon slappin'
Bandwaggonin' & hand slappin' the grand dragon
I hate the fact that I was right when 10% of the weak shit is hoggin' up the light
And why is it only poor niggas poorin' up the Sprite
I survived the struggle. I'm blessed, driven & humble
When I pull that base, I make it a double, yeah (Oooh Hoooooo!)
Cause I came from King T, i Emcee, I kill Rappers & think backwards
So it's like you're f..cked
Catch fades between takes & I'll touch y'all up
Let's lube the beat breaks, watch me f..ck y'all up
That's on God we trust, Xzibit
[Brevi: Chorus]
We walk with God!
Beware the com-pa-ny you keep
Them here to long!
People will recognize family
Walk with God!
People will recognize family
[Ras Kass: Verse 3]
Word to the motherland, our future is backwards
Black shores, hijacked Moors became the crack whores
Rap off, what snitches gettin' stacks for
Marcus Garvey, Black Star polishing black bird
Only real ones come aboard, we don't wanna record
We accept Jee-sus like you love the Lord
Born again, like Jason Ultimatum
They can't control the prophesy, so they hate him
Under-rate him
I read the haters DNA verbatim (Whoo!)
Electrocute a nigga like Raiden
This is called Rap. Y'all sayin' we too lyrical?
That's like making square basketballs, not spherical (Facts!)
Master say some dumb shit, y'all repeat it like Jigaboos
You dumb nigga, you
Pain hit you like whips
?, then make your physical flip
Inventing more styles with more bows in this bitch
[Brevi: Chorus]
We walk with God!
Beware the com-pa-ny you keep
Them here to long!
People will recognize family
Walk with God!
People will recognize family
