Built pyramids

Featuring Large Professor

(Intro)
Large Pro,
It's my first Large Pro beat
You a genius nigga
I'm honored
And with them gray's in your beard,
You lookin' more like a genius

(Verse)
Flushing Meadow Park, drive my heights 8 store
We playing baseball, then we slangin 8 balls
Mission impossible, alley cattie shot,niggas got shot too
Locked at the hospital
Jamaican Ave., chicken patty with the cocoa bread
I know Jamaicans on drugs, call em cocoa heads
Tits lookin at the front door, always want more
So I got drugs pump and more
This is my belief, my philosophy, geography
Ecology, biology, psychology
I used to spit Gillette razors, hand in hand with my Pakistan man
We made vapors
Fish scales from Jackson Heights Columbians
I.S. 61, was raised for no republicans
And I don't mean to get all political
But Mitt Romney don't plan to do shit for you

(Hook)
What the theory is, some like to won at night, we the areas
Tell em what it really is
Built pyramids, ground up from the streets
It's that Q talk serious
What the theory is, some like to won at night, we the areas
Tell em what it really is
Built pyramids, ground up from the streets
It's that Q talk serious

(Verse)
Yo, see I'm a student of a game how I pay attention
You so poor that you can't afford to pay attention
Catch me downtown by L.E.S.
Or up in Flatbush, Fort Green by dys, who you be with
My niggas I was locked up and swaffed with
Killers that kill killers marvelous
I know you never used a gun but got bodies
You can do the math, go and ask who you at
A1, since day 1, just ask
G-Shock watch, flooded with the black diamonds
Louboutin's with the spikes is for weirdos
I'm hood nigga, I don't wear those
Still a dapper dan, design still immaculate
Gucci ain't make that, nah, but it's they fabric
And still I get cabbage with it, punch style
Gold piece Lazareth

(Hook)
What the theory is, some like to won at night, we the areas
Tell em what it really is
Built pyramids, ground up from the streets
It's that Q talk serious
What the theory is, some like to won at night, we the areas
Tell em what it really is
Built pyramids, ground up from the streets
It's that Q talk serious

(Verse)
Yo, you wanna fly in the city, you gotta go to Queens
Fly out of the city, you gotta come to Queens
My borough birthed John Gotti
Another killers, big drug dealers, wild ball players
Lamar Odom, World Peace Artest
Kenny Anderson, Kenny Smith, Lefrak the best, yea
Rafer Alston, Anthony Mason, Mark Jackson on a lay up line
They got action
Supreme court where I fought, but these ball playing niggas
Rep Queens on a court
Talik and Kimani could have made it
And Raheem manchild, the fuckin' hood's favorite
Orchestrated, sort of related,
Black and Puerto Rican, like Los we stay faded cause
Yeah, on the real to the real, on the real to the real

(Hook)
What the theory is, some like to won at night, we the areas
Tell em what it really is
Built pyramids, ground up from the streets
It's that Q talk serious
What the theory is, some like to won at night, we the areas
Tell em what it really is
Built pyramids, ground up from the streets
It's that Q talk serious.
