Fat Joe - The Hidden Hand lyrics

Your rating:
Yea, time to educate the youth (Speak on it God)
 Cause if we won't, then who will? (True)
 Terror Squad style, yo
 (Speak on it God)

 Yo, I was a wild adolescent, blessed with the foul essence
 Messin around with the wrong crowd, I learned my lesson
 Stressin all the things that I have not
 I pray to God I get my Uncle out the crack spot
 I hear mad shots, homicide come and play Matlock
 but never crack the case cause the defendant's a bad cop
 You feel me fam?  The devil's got a plan
 That's why Farrakhan formed a Million Man up in Washington
 The Hidden Hand even planned this man
 Have me goin hand to hand, killin my own clan
 But now I understand and see the big picture
 Fuck cryin about the struggle, I teach you how to get richer

 [Cuban Link]
 Shit is a hassle in this rotten apple, kids robbin coppin capsules
 Rockin tattoos, boppin with ankles locked in shackles
 Got the cops joggin at you, spittin rounds of clips, they down wit it
 New clowns'll make you feel as if the Bill of Rights is counterfeit
 Now it's been written that all men are equal, but then it's legal
 when they beat us and treat us as if we're different people
 We go for delf, fuck the cop's health
 I'd rather drop shelf and let off shots until my Glock melts
 Cause God dealt us a helpless hand, they made us sell this land
 so the palest man could build a selfish plan
 You know we can't trust the government, cause Uncle Sam is smugglin
 drugs for us to hustle all the stuff for him
 Even McGruff is in it, gettin a percentage
 Takin advantage, punishin just blacks and hispanics

 [Big Punisher]
 My heart is cold as ice, so I know I'm sheist, Big Pun was the kid
 that no one liked, my whole life, is one big roll of the dice
 Payin a price twice as expensive as white kids
 Destined for Riker's not knowin my existance was priceless
 IT'S LIKE THIS, my soul was lifeless, I earned stripes
 fightin the nicest in the crisis I slice em in half and make em dash
 like hyphens, invitin any rapper to Clash With the Titan
 The writing's like fighting cause rappers be biting like Tyson
 I'm hypein the crowd, keepin em Loud like my label
 I'm proud I'm able to lift from the bowels of the ghetto
 I found me a little sanity inside a career and a family
 No more wars and renderin tears to insanity
 So keep the salary and tear the mic, cause I love it
 There's my life, you judge it, fuck it Seis, I don't want it

 [Triple Seis]
 I'm a Dominican, stranded in New York like Filligan
 Don't wanna get locked up in the pen again
 But here they come, the faggots and cuffs, searchin for guns
 Turnin they ride on the side of the curb to see who runs
 They authorize the beast to walk the streets holdin heat
 Four deep, we puff production, my cheek, you know my steez
 Fuck the police, usin "probable cause" to break laws
 Behind the badge you try to cover up your racial war
 I got somethin for you boys in blue
 The system poisoned you, blew your cover, now what you supposed to do?
 I never let the faggot pull the trig first
 It won't be no American flag over my hearse
 What's worse, you know they disperse for bucks
 So take caution in the streets cause our protection sucks

 [Armaggedon]
 This dude, he had the darkest pads
 Who dressed up in the heart of brash
 Forever talkin trash
 How he stacked niggaz to almanac
 Gunshots to corner four police informants
 Stood like he modeled the latest fashions, sidewalk sideshow performance
 He raised the pull of grace, a razor blew his face
 Force calm the ?sere? plus a pack of the ?dunga dun? laced with toothpaste
 Life ain't to be gambled son, you could get trampled
 by people that act more like animals than mammals high off enamel
 That's what his poppa said whose locked for droppin Akmed
 in the candy store robbery probably to get his veins fed
 He ain't listen, he became a braindead cocaine head
 Older Mexicans knew, they killed him eatin ?bagualitos?
 But hey little kids, don't follow these dopes

 [Prospect]
 What?  Uh-huh, yea I can dig that
 They call me Prospect, I just came back from ?
 Had this track on pause, now I'm back on course
 It's lost on the Ave, tryin to take my life from the past
 Get this legal cash, ? without dad
 Kinda sad how he got dragged down to negativity
 Only if he had one love, trust for liberty
 this world would be a better place, get what it takes
 in a race to racism replace the snake in em
 Bad ones, want to spend lives and discriminate
 I'm tryin to keep this positive vibe, and from that
 I generate to the top, like Puffy won't stop
 I'm mature now, with one knot, from tryin to get locked
 And to the shorties on the block, tryin to twist 40 tops
 Get your act together, do some carpentry with a Black n Decker
 And stop speedin like a Kawasaki
 From my life, to your life, I'm touchin everybody Twinz watch me

 Everything we speak is the truth
 From Prospect to Munroe, here in a hot second
 The whole world run know, everything we speak is the truth
 Terror Squad
