We got our own ideas! Yeah Antagonistic action, it's just a fraction Oof what I feel for you, I'll take my time in a rhyme Yo, let's bust a move, I'm steppin' with confidence Yes I know it's evident, a backseat to you that's irrelevant You see it's like this, you shot and missed, and now it's my turn You learn, you mess with the fire, you burn. and it's a heat up Situation sticky You're the duck, huh, I won't be picky, I'm bassin' You're chasing a dream that I'm livin' You stupid pigeon, cause even with the high flow, I keep a low pro You step off on me, and that's a sho' nuff n.o. I mean a no-go Yeah, something like that [Chorus: ] Fuck it, you're tryin' to step on my tip, yeah I'm a brother with a purpose (pump it up, T) So I'll take my time and serve this right Despite the negativity, Never want society to get the best of me You sold out, just another fool, holdin' out On the pockets of my brothers tryin' to get clout Step back, cast the vapors, your vision's blurred, check out my behaviour Calm, cool, never sweat the issue (so what you're saying?) What I'm saying is that we're past due Gotta stand up and be counted, can't you see the trouble keeps mountin', boy And I won't stand for it, so get off 'Cause I'm about to have a fit You can't step unless you step legit Enough talk y'all, this is it, let's get ill with this Yeah, yeah Suckers are trying to step off on my tip We got our own ideas! Suckers are trying to step off on my tip We got our own ideas! Suckers are trying to step off on my tip We got our own ideas! Suckers are trying to step off on my tip As I roast, you toast - can't stand the heat of the aftermath The worst you ran with you dis just to get a laugh the brother you ridiculed, they say you're the king of rules yeah, time for school, time for walking, I'm stalking, you're talking as you run your mouth down, I'm chalking up another way of gettin' paid in dividends in the end, my friend, its just a verbal blend yeah, get with that [Chorus: ] Brothers be jocking, freaks keep clocking Brothers be jocking, skeezers are clocking We got our own ideas!
