{Scarface:}
And you can tell
em I said it
I said muthafuckas is takin the
credit
Been in the game for 20 minutes and
they thinkin they legends
All on their videos
showin off frontin for the camera
One hit
wonders is playin games fakin stamina
I damage
ya throwin blows to your egos
Flossin new
leather think you the shit wearin these
clothes
And supposed to flash and have the
finer things
But can't seem to keep your
money, cause you're buyin rings
What is you
gettin, 7 or 6, new record contract?
Bustin
your bomb raps, but you ain't gettin your funds
back
Fuck that, I been around since '86
Way
before my muthafuckin mind played tricks
And
when Too $hort told me this bitch, it wasn't
givin
Cause I'm sick and tired of niggas
fantasizin they livin
All on the
tell-lie-vision tryina front like that's your
car
With a fat-ass cigar, you ain't no
muthafuckin star
What you are is a nigga lost,
dazed and confused
Back in the day that you
stepped in it is the day that you do
But on
the cool, some niggas been around since the
'70s
Steadily preachin to us all
longevity

[CHORUS]
You don't get shit
for free
Your own
destiny
Longevity
Longevity

{KB:}
10
years ago a friend of mine
Asked me to say some
MC rhymes
But back then I said: fuck rhymin, I
was tryina get laid
But now it's '98, I'm all
about gettin paid
Fuck that bullshit you
niggas be on in your videos
Drive the shit
your C.E.O. own
In their home, at their
parties, you niggas dummies
Muthafucka, fuck
the fame, it's all about the money
And then
the power (money and the power)
Slingin tapes
like powder
Everything I own is mine, don't
understand 'ours'
This's a serious
business
My nigga, take care of your
business
Especially you niggas with gimmicks,
your ass is finished
In the nick of time, fuck
havin the tightest rhymes
You better grind,
it's plenty fools dope without a dime
So I'm
tight with mines, and I prove that every
time
Just to let you niggas know I'm out to
get mine
That's
longevity

[CHORUS]

{Too
$hort:}
Who got the freshman flop or the
sophomore jinx
Rappers blow up, fall off, and
think
Been there, done that, about to make a
comeback
I'm on some new shit, not like my
young raps
I know what you sold, first album
went gold
Then you changed the style, shoulda
stuck with the old
Flows, and the old clothes,
cause now you fake
You ain't got no hoes
committin foul play
Hatin on me, but you're
waitin to see
Old school Too $hort in the
place to be
I ain't backstage chasin young
girlies
I'm chasin money, I'm in my early
30s
Still sellin records, and I'm still a real
player
Can't understand how you still could be
a hater
Said I don't stop rappin from the
start
If you don't believe me, go check the
charts
Bitch

[CHORUS]
