"Socialize" lyrics - LLOYD BANKS
I'm coming out of S-O-U-T-H-S-I-D-E
You out the whip, boy, can't even get a test drive free
Just left the jeweler again, told him to make my neck pop, 3D
Hope it was worth it to cross me, won't get a next time, see me
Coming to you out a neighborhood that hands out free scars
If I can rewind the clock and back the vans out ERs
From the city that ain't the quickest to hash out remarks
Went from shithole to four-and-a-half to five-star key cards
Fuck you sayin'? Kilo won at the weigh-in
Pocket full of dissection, I'm keepin' all your complainin'
Far from celebratory, I'm leaving on the occasion
Imagine them throwin' jabs at me with the style that I gave 'em
Shackles, gon' have to cage him
As far as the road, I'm ragin'
Nigga, two fucks wavin', revolver accompany while I'm bathin'
The comeback's been amazing
Here's to my getting money engagement
Wrote my motherfucking signature in pavement
I'm not to play with
[Chorus:]
Fuck you gon' give me? I got my pride
Getting it makes me feel like I'm alive
Expect 'em to snake, you won't be surprised
Niggas claimin' they ride or die and hide
No matter what you say to me, it's in the eyes
Niggas'll do anything to survive
RIP, Imma do it for the guys
You tryna make moves or socialize?
They numbers shavin', you inexperienced, movin' out the stores
Put these pics up from cruises, makin' them losers pout some more
Left a copycat pattern, harder to prove I'm not the lord
In other words, I'm that nigga, check your confusion at the door
Killed the underground, lately safe to assume I'm out for more
[?] still pickin' the screws up out the floor
You got a filter on your life and ain't shit without couture
I ain't stayin' long but I dropped a deuce on 'em way out the tour
Haters never shine, just step aside, my second time regroup
Ain't no question 'bout it, weapon crowded, steppin' out the coupe
These perfected lines I specialize and mesmerize pursuits
I need an extra prize, my severed ties should recognize the truth
Better check your aura, ain't got a convo, comment, or question for ya
Knew you all my life and a stranger'll be your best supporter
Bet I won't respond to it, ain't no birds in the pecking order
I don't give a fuck 'bout your nod, nigga, I never saw ya
[Chorus:]
Fuck you gon' give me? I got my pride
Getting it makes me feel like I'm alive
Expect 'em to snake, you won't be surprised
Niggas claimin' they ride or die and hide
No matter what you say to me, it's in the eyes
Niggas'll do anything to survive
RIP, Imma do it for the guys
You tryna make moves or socialize?
