after the cash, whats fuckin with that
all mighty dollars, replaced Allah
so holla back!
21 gun salute, let your pistols clap
just as long as the violence is black on black
glorifying that shit, now its a rap
a million sold for your soul
if theres a price for that
Vanilla Ice and Hammer
hip-hop or propaganda?
its mainstream now, that shit bumps in Montana
white boys in Iowa call each other 'nigga'
