Album: The Kryme Wave Song: Streets Without Kryme Typed by: Cno Evil [Intro: Triple O.G.] Kryme Life in effect, Triple O.G. with him We gon' set this off, you know the deal It's happening, just when you thought it was safe Now you got to lock your door [Chorus: Kryme Life] It's my time and I be, on my grind, or the sleep I'm constantly on my feet, defeat mind I'm hard as concrete, niggas is weak, with sweet lines So ask yourself, what's the streets without Kryme It's like an ill ass beat, without rhymes Or a schoolboy counting to ten, but skipped nine Boroughs need me, like the alcoholic need wine So ask yourself, what's the streets without Kryme [Kryme Life] I'll save your mind, I'd rather fuck with the beef than with the swine Grab the feet, people or choice, lead, deeping the voice Bring forth a whole new breed, none of us moist Niggas know they own role, I keep 'em in, good at the cross Paid thirty for clean fills, pockets all swoll Me and my boys, pump drills in the project Bringing the noise, self employed, fuck a straight line We crooked, wilding then bookings heading for state time Aiyo from Staten to Brooklyn, my niggas take shine Got my wolves hollering, looking, you can't escape mine If you can smell what I'm cooking, when the beef is on I move swooping the film, and you softer than cushion Coming through the door, shoving and pushing, throwing my elbow Like Luda, niggas'll do ya, up in this hell hole I'm rapping, shooting for platinum, but I don't sell clothes With the mic, I hold stripes, like a pair of shelltoes [Chorus] [Kryme Life] Believing, a lot of people wouldn't be eating It's all we know, they got us running through the street peacing Clean corners, no policemen, if a nigga wasn't doing his thing To make ends meet, he fucking up his sequence A fool would say Kryme don't pay, but you telling me Caught tickets that move from misdemeanors to the felonies Heavy surcharges, our rage is bail That's all money, the judges getting paid like hell Lawyers and C.O.'s, plus the lawmakers is well The system lose out, when these jails got empty cells Don't even speak about the inmates, drop and load, til they all count For the phony conversary, just to think straight Living the legal life, I'mma get paid Cuz when you live a legal life, there's a lot at stake People die, leave they families to cry at wake Daughters and sons growing up, without no one to guide them safe [Chorus 2X]
