Verse Of The City (Stop The Music Album Version) - NEW BREED
You thought you did but you don't know me
I'm all cities inside your Sony
The realest heads ain't no man phony
I'm every man from every land in every jam
I intend to drop bombs and succeed at every plan
I'm that heavy handed hood up to no good
I'm the smart quiet type of brother to start a riot
I'm that lover boy playing R&B in his car
The thugged out cellar dweller hell with being a star
Man I'm that rich kid my moms a doctor dad's a lawyer
Or the broke brother sold out
Ready to die for you
I'm from the nines world wide
Always up in a cipher
The hard core hustler twenty five to lifer
The one who never once stepped
Foot in a church
But met God then that was the end of my search
I'm the kid with the black hoodie
When you're walking to class
Spitting lyrics in the air like I'm ready to blast
Yo I'm the verse of the city the song of the hood
I spoke the truth when nobody else would
I rocked the shows when nobody else could
The Breed ran spots most crews never stood
We go deeper then your eyes can see
More than your average crew nah we're New Breed
We're the verse of the city the song of the hood
Try and step to us I wish y'all would
We are too strong for your hands to hold
Never switch even for a million records sold
We're the verse of the city the song of the hood
Try and step to us I wish y'all would
I cry the tears one shed when their ain't strength left
Sometimes I feel I'm in a dream but ain't slept yet
And while I'm prayin just to make it to the next step
These whack rappers talk trash while they cash checks
Man I know we all thought it before
What would happen if I let truth walk out the door
And speak garbage
Instead of dwelling
On the Awesome and Sovereign
Guess I'm blessed or cursed
Depending on which way you look at the verse
Cause I see it from right to left and
I read it from last to first
Because everything in this kingdom is backwards
Still out the air I extract words
Never lack words for hypocrites and actors
I master this art that we call our own
I love being in a 360 all in a zone
That's where I'm comfortable even
Though I'm far from home
We go deeper then your eyes can see
More than your average crew nah
We're New Breed
We're the verse of the city the song of the hood
Try and step to us I wish y'all would
We are too strong for your hands to hold
Never switch even for a million records sold
We're the verse of the city the song of the hood
Try and step to us I wish y'all would
We deserve a standing ovation for single
Handedly manhandling this whole nation
Tunnel Rats demanding rotation
Cause it's evident obvious y'all emcee's copy us
But if it's God you trust then do what you've been told
Cause I'm gon keep moving until I'm dead and gone
Spitting lead in my songs
Not concerned with what I earn
No regrets can't forget the ones who said I was wrong
I got blood in my vains and Dert in the track
All I need to proceed is for this blood
That I bleed to pump harder faster
Adrenalin rush for this art that I master
Make you want to take the Tunnel Vision off the rack
Rip it out the wrapper rock the rhythm to the max
And if in fact one of you cats
Ever want to step in the game
Never do it for the money or fame
We go deeper then your eyes can see
More than your average crew nah we're New Breed
We're the verse of the city the song of the hood
Try and step to us I wish y'all would
We are too strong for your hands to hold
Never switch even for a million records sold
We're the verse of the city the song of the hood
Try and step to us I wish y'all would
We go deeper then your eyes can see
More than your average crew nah we're New Breed
We're the verse of the city the song of the hood
Try and step to us I wish y'all would
We are too strong for your hands to hold
Never switch even for a million records sold
We're the verse of the city the song of the hood
Try and step to us I wish y'all would
