Money, power respect

(lil kim)
See I believe in money, power, and respect.
First you get the money.
Then you get the muthafuckin, power.
After you get the fuckin power muthafuckas will respect you.

(chorus [lil kim])

Help you sleep at night.

(sheek louchion)
Ayo my whole clique bout it, bout it.
We take yours while you pout about it.
Truck, step out the whores wanna crowd around it.
You could see me on optimum tv.
Go in your bathroom turn the light out. scream!
Bloody mary, 1, 2, 3.
Sheek aint your usual friend.
About to setchu up like kaiser and walk straight at the end.
Im done wit ice and charms.
Im tryin my whole casket when Im gone.
Pull up wit class on the don.
Once I meet em I greet em.
Kiss his feet for freedom.
Tell em thank you lord.
Cuz on earth I was gettin bored.
Now resurrect me back to this cat called sheek.
So I can make this album.
And get back the cats thats weak.
Two thirty, six two.
Me bust for you thats like a cat vs. a pitbull.
Gun, know clip full, keep hunger.
And plan for the future, cuz you figure
You gon be older
Way longer than you gon be younger.

(styles)
Only time could tell how the clock ticks.
Im really loved here but Im still a hostage.
Two personalities check the posture.
Smoke out the mouth clear out the nostrils.
You think of death but the life seem scary.
Im past the graveyard seein people hail mary
I aint chillin til Im out parachutin.
Race my man in mountain climbin for about ten diamonds.
Twenty five thousand a piece.
Fuck streets!
Tryin to own the island.
Forget about wilin.
Try ridin in the car that be glidin.
If I showed you where I lived you would think I was hidin.
Sling dick to chicks that dont speak english.
Wake up in trinidad, like fuckin em rich.
Come back. private jet
Live on set.
If you could shit gold like you split the decks.

(chorus [lil kim])
Its the key to life.

(jada kiss)
Yo nutin but the hotness.
Whenever we drop this.
Monotonous for yall to keep hatin,
Cuz yall never gon stop us.
I keep my rocks spotless,
And my hoes topless.
Take time try to figure out who da lox is.
Fear no one.
Kick rhymes like shoguns.
You scared to blow one.
Get robbed wit your own gun.
If I dont respect you Im ah check you.
And if I dont kiss you Im a peck you,
Right before I wet chu.
I sneeze on tracks an bless you.
Im special.
And if you like workin out,
Then Im gon stretch you.
Husslin is dead but we still get red.
Turn the spots in the bakeries to get back bread.
And yall said my monies spent.
But its in the bent.
So when the feds come the dogs cant get a scent.
For my story, self-explanatory
That Im the hottest thing on the street.
An yall aint got nutin for me

(chorus [lil kim])

(dmx)
Arf, arf.
This is a beat that I can freak to
Just drop the reals.
Plus a nigga wit the ill.
Yall niggas know my skills.
Ass from the grills get em up,
Split em up, wet em up.
And watch em come get em up,
Set em up.
When you do dirt, you get dirt.
Bitch, Ill make your shit hurt.
Step back like I did worse.
This aint no fucking game.
You think Im playin, till you layin.
To where? the junkyard decayin.
Moms at home prayin
That chu comin home.
But chu not, cuz you sittin up in the trunk
Startin to rot.
And hell is hot, I know because Im here now baby.
Its goin down baby.
Git the full pound baby.
And let off up in a nigga,
Especially if he think he bigga
Than my muthafuckin trigga.
Did i?
Can I get my?
Is it gone?
Dmx represent for one time.
Its on.
