Just get out from under the table I'm not a pimp runnin a stable I'm a kid with a vision runnin a label With the freshest MC's with somethin to say too We cuttin the umbilical cord from the navel Willin and able to change the game for the better A lot of crews claim they together Then they fall apart and blame it on cheddar Please~! I stay professional in all my endeavors So we about to blow like Parliament in "V for Vendetta" They try to get you with the funny money
