Big Shots Lyrics

Big Shots lyrics

[ VERSE 1 ]

Once upon a time there was a big diesel kid

Who just got sprung from a 10 year bid

10 years is a long time, he left as a pup

But came out as an adult, about to act up

Out on the block he played the average street games

Gamblin, scramblin, just to build up a name

Pumped a few pockets, he got on the spot

Not until he bought a Benz did his name get hot

Out on the streets slingin big rocks on concrete

Those who tried to play him, they cold got beat

I mean cold, you dissed him and you just got smoked

Then he'd take your spot and leave your family broke

Even five-o was petro and wouldn't even act up

To give him a ticket, they'd have to call in for back-up

That's how extra and large the boy got

Just gettin started in the game of a big shot



	(Gangsta boogie, gangsta boogie)



[ VERSE 2 ]

It only took two years for all of this to occur

He met a light-skinned squally and flipped over her

She was dope alright, but the girl was so young

Her eyes was so lovely that money was strung

This kid was 23 and the girl 16

See, another street king had now found his queen

And he was runnin things, puttin others in fear

Makin 20 g's a week, and that's a million a year

Steppin out to the club with his girl in a mink

Wearin custom-made jewels and big fat links

Go upstairs where his place would be set

With the choice of Dom Perrignon or Moët

Four soldiers undercover loungin with his brother

Everybody strapped with a vest and a rubber

Just in case somebody's girl got hot

But she was bagged and ragged in the club by a big shot



Extra large



[ VERSE 3 ]

Spots from the east to the westside he ran

If money was power, then this kid was He-Man

Never again would homeboy go thirsty

Cause he bought a mansion in Patterson New Jersey

The house that was owned by Lou Castello

At the age of 25 life was so mellow

A father of 4, each had different mothers

That's to my knowledge, might have had others

Nothin could go wrong, the world was his

Until one day somebody gave him a quiz

To see if he was thorough or just a front

A kid pulled out and got smoked like a blunt

The brother knew how to react on impact

Bust him in the shoulders, opened up his back

Three more to go, what was four deep

Who were sent on a mission to put him to sleep

He dipped in a Benz, bein pursued by a van

Picked up the cellular phone to call his man

They strapped up and loaded up in the trucks

With A.K.'s, nines and Uzis, ready to buck

Now homebody was doin like 100 quick

Down the block cold jettin and not sweatin conflict

Bullets were flyin from the van behind him

His boys were rollin, but they couldn't find him

The city was large, and they had to think fast

He had on a vest, but what if he crashed?

The brother made a right, and what happens then?

A big yellow sign that read 'dead end'

Now he could give his soul to the essence to keep

All of a sudden there were shots from a black jeep

It was his young girl who met him at the spot

Cause she was always taught first hand from a big shot



[ VERSE 4 ]

19 year old female was so bold

Her and the homegirls always had ammo

The brothers in the van just kept on firin

Deep in the background the sounds of sirens

The kid in the Benz, got out and got shot

Caught two in the leg, and the leg was real hot

He fell to the ground with no strenght to run

The clip was empty in his automatic gun

The girl in the jeep had blocked off the street

Tryin to save a big shot from defeat

Crazy gunfire last for a while

But then came the trucks with the Bigfoot style

A.K.'s and Uzis weighed more than tons

Killed the three brothers that tried to run

The ones who lived were arrrested by the cops

But the charges were dropped, the judges were paid by big shots



[ VERSE 5 ]

Listen, it's not hard to take charge

Life of a big shot is extra large

Strictly do or die, makin moves direct

Cause a big shot will always get just due respect

>From east to west coast, mainly minorities

Make enough money to buy the authorities

Dollars are chill when the women are real hot

So no matter what, you'll always remember a big shot
