In No Time - Green Street

A warrior’s mentality, boy how could you battle me

I put every one of my dreams over a salary

The weight that I be balancing, shaking off the tragedy

That’s why it’s safe to guarantee, there won’t be nothing that’s after me

But now I feel like the time is slipping

It’s like a bomb is ticking

Find me in the kitchen

With that Obama vision

That means I’m focused

Bringing hope to the hopeless

Bust shots on opponents

Duck shots I stay on offense

This don’t stop

Either we pop, or we gone Pac

Either we rock, or we gone rot

Believing in God, don’t mean you got heart

And I have no option

Go broke or get it popping

Used to hate to clock in

Refuse to boost your profits

I rather be shopping, island hopping constant

Mornings in St. Thomas, St. Lawrence for the nonsense

For dollars we go all in, enough to go around twice

To you all this sounds nice, this what my life sounds like

They tried to box us out the game, dog

But we’re back and we’re going in

No rings, no chains on

It’s just work so we’re going in

It’s my time that’s coming

And you can’t tell me nothing

This time is for the money

I hit the ground I’m running

About to do a hundred

This time is for the money

I’m trying to be respected in this game

My name connect with claims of «realest out»

I’m stealing dames, you still in doubt

You kicking shade then seal your mouth

Married to my fame

How could I switch it now and pick a spouse?

Work a nine to five, that corporate life’s a trap like in the south

I love my pops he didn’t bounce

Brother 'bout to go to Harvard

Mama know I’ll be a star

When times were hard we wasn’t starving

Niggas talking 'bout balling?

Kid I grew up by the Garden

As for winning, I could say a couple things

This where it started

Smartest kid that’s been retarded

Talking shit?

You get discarded

Tiger blood and lion hearted

Bitches acting pop now?

I’m still comfortable, I’m riding with my top down

I’m hopping out like, who’s hot now?

Say something

A free country, they don’t let a nigga make nothing

A game of thrones, you got to take something

So we lit the flame without a match

Ain’t nobody hot as us

Man I swear we got the juice, I look at ya’ll like not as much
