[Intro]

Yah, Queens nigga

Ali Vegas

Generation gap spokesman for the youth

L.E.S., urban wolves y'all

Big things connection, yah

Yo how you going y'all check it



[Ali Vegas]

Yo, yo have you ever had to change huddles

Move to a differant hood see the same struggles

Crab routines got the game muffled

Old players wish to death but got the same shuffle

One move could leave your brain puzzled

That's why I stress essentials, bless the tempo

with knowledge that perfects the mental

Come to Queens see what the rest is into

I lost a round but it wont happen twice

I got emcees on their knees steady asking christ

How come when they was Ali's age they wasnt half as nice

I treat a vet just like an ap-pren-tice

Cause the words I speak is more street than crack and dice

I was put here to rap, L.E.S. let me hear the track

D.O. know I spit a verse make the snare collapse

Any affair I'm at my peers is strapped

From up north to the telly

And all my peers caught in the belly

Living life similar to bums sincere black



[chorus]

Another day, another dollar, another nigga in court (whats that)

That's the theme of New York

And if you dont plan to play hard

you might as well stay the hell off the court

That's the theme of New York (I aint going nowhere)

where the hustlers work hard for their cash and they hate taking shorts

That's the theme of New York (the system got them locked down)

And all the grimey niggas plot and scheme

to take the shit that you bought, that's the theme of New York



[Ali Vegas]

Aiyyo these New York City streets is hot

even police get shot

neighbors never speak a lot

and citizens they beef with cops

avenues flooded with p.c. shops

and reifer spots

my place is a sneaker box

some say I need to stop

others ask me  when my cd drops

I tell them when they stressed to hear it

I got felons serving like me while the rest they live it

I walk the streets at night but never pivot

only bullets swerve my words

go through your vest and wet your spirit

y'all critics got a lot of nerve

I'm him to the third

a new king has emerged

from out of queens by turning verbs into perfected lyrics

and tommorrow they'll say



[chorus]



[Ali Vegas]

Yo police blitzed the crack game

drug alias switched to rap names

fat chains attract fame

innocent wigs get split when gats flame

cause the ignorant mix their wits with bad aim

a young brain stormer

hit harder than hurricane Carter

a mental sparker

we can rhyme to see whos pencil sharper

you are raps newest propaganda

speak with smooth and proper grammer

planets start minana

turning cash legal

just imagine if wanna cap people

impregnate the rich daughter of Rich Porter

and create a crack sequel

now thats lethal

what you say gangsta



[chorus]



[Ali Vegas sung]

I dont kow the plan

the system snatched half of my dynasty

I dont want to leave the city

but I know one day they'll try the real on me

(so what you say, what you say gangsta
