One Mic Lyrics
[00:06.33] One time, yeah, yeah
[00:13.60] Yo, all I need is one mic, one beat, one stage
[00:16.73] One nigga front, my face on the front page
[00:19.23] Only if I had one gun, one girl and one crib
[00:22.24] One God to show me how to do things his son did
[00:24.94] Pure, like a cup of virgin blood
[00:27.11] Mixed with 151, one sip'll make a nigga flip
[00:30.56] Writin' names on my hollow tips, plottin' shit
[00:32.99] Mad violence, who I'm gon' body? This hood politics
[00:35.77] Acknowledge it, leave bodies chopped up in garbages
[00:38.19] Seeds watch us, grow up and try to follow us
[00:40.78] Police watch us, roll up and try knockin' us
[00:43.45] One knee I ducked, could it be my time is up?
[00:46.18] But my luck, I got up, the cop shot again
[00:48.65] Bus stop, glass burst, a fiend drops his Heineken
[00:51.22] Ricochetin' between the spots that I'm hidin' in
[00:53.82] Blackin' out as I shoot back-, fuck gettin' hit!
[00:56.48] This is my hood, I'ma rep to the death of it
[00:59.17] 'Til everybody come home, little niggas is grown
[01:01.54] Hoodrats, don't abortion your womb
[01:03.36] We need more warriors soon
[01:05.06] Sent from the stars, sun and the moon
[01:06.74] In this life of police chases, street sweepers and coppers
[01:09.31] Stick-up kids with no conscience, leavin' victims with doctors
[01:11.97] If you really think you ready to die with .9s out
[01:14.62] This is what Nas is 'bout, nigga, the time is now!
[01:17.08] Yo, all I need is one mic
[01:21.93] All I need is one mic (that's all I need)
[01:26.88] All I need is one mic (all I need, niggas)
[01:32.42] All I need is one mic (yeah)
[01:37.75] All I need is one blunt, one page and one pen
[01:40.43] One prayer, tell God forgive me for one sin
[01:43.42] Matter of fact, maybe more than one
[01:45.27] Look back at all the hatred against me, fuck all of them!
[01:48.67] Jesus died at age 33, there's 33 shots
[01:51.46] From twin Glocks, there's 16 apiece, that's 32
[01:54.02] Which means one of my guns was holdin' 17
[01:56.57] 27 hit your crew, six went into you
[01:59.02] Everybody gotta die sometime, hope your funeral
[02:01.10] Never gets shot up, bullets tear through the innocent
[02:04.64] Nothin' is fair, niggas roll up, shootin' from wheelchairs
[02:07.13] My heart is racin', tastin' revenge in the air
[02:09.67] I let this shit slide for too many years, too many times
[02:12.29] Now I'm strapped with a couple of MACs, too many .9s
[02:14.81] If y'all niggas really with me, get busy, load up the semis
[02:17.52] Do more than just hold it, explode the clip until you empty
[02:20.12] There's nothin' in our way, they bust, we bust, they rush, we rush
[02:23.32] Lead flyin', feel it? I feel it in my gut
[02:25.60] That we take these bitches to war, lie 'em down
[02:27.10] 'Cause we stronger now, my nigga, the time is now!
[02:30.26] All I need is one mic (that's all I need, niggas, that's all I need)
[02:35.36] All I need is one mic (there's nothin' else in the world)
[02:40.45] All I need is one mic (that's all a nigga need to do his thing y'know)
[02:45.61] All I need is one mic (this is all I need)
[02:50.97] All I need is one life, one try, one breath, I'm one man
[02:54.32] What I stand for speaks for itself, they don't understand
[02:57.43] Don't wanna see me on top, too egotistical
[02:59.44] Talkin' all that slick shit the same way these bitches do
[03:02.14] Wonder what my secrets is
[03:03.71] Niggas'll move on, you only if they know what your weakness is
[03:06.85] I have none, too late to grab guns
[03:08.59] I'm blastin' 'cause I'm a cool nigga
[03:10.03] Thought I wouldn't have that ass done? Fooled you niggas
[03:12.56] What you call an infinite brawl, eternal souls clashin'
[03:15.15] War gets deep, some beef is everlastin'
[03:17.89] Complete with thick scars
[03:19.02] Brothers knifin' each other up in prison yards
[03:21.36] Drama, where does it start?
[03:22.88] You know the block was ill as a youngster
[03:24.75] Every night it was like a cop'll get killed
[03:26.96] Body found in the dumpster
[03:28.20] For real a hustler, purchased my Range
[03:29.87] Niggas throwin' dirt on my name
[03:31.23] Jealous 'cause fiends got they work and complain
[03:33.21] Bitches left me 'cause they thought I was finished
[03:35.17] Shoulda knew she wasn't true
[03:36.56] She came to me when her man caught a sentence
[03:38.62] Diamonds are blindin', I never make the same mistakes
[03:40.90] Movin' with a change of pace
[03:42.25] Lighter load, see now the king is straight
[03:44.11] Swellin' my melon 'cause none of these niggas real
[03:46.47] Heard they were tellin' police, how can a kingpin squeal?
[03:49.01] This is crazy, I'm on the right track, I'm finally found
[03:51.96] You need some soul-searchin', the time is now
[03:53.98] All I need is one mic (yeah, yeah yeah yeah)
[03:59.20] All I need is one mic (all I ever needed in this world, fuck cash)
[04:04.38] All I need is one mic (fuck the cars, the jewelry)
[04:09.41] All I need is one mic (to spread my voice to the whole world, baby)
[04:15.33]
