Verse 3
Now its big buisnesses
You see them big bentley-skids
You see them Bee's on those shiny-a**
Rims of his
You can't find him in the woods
With his kids with his
Mob cookin breakfast with no S W A T
A good day this is
You could bull-sh*t with rap if you want
I pull the bull-sh*t to the back
And put rap in front
Now I'm State-Prop flickin' it
State-Prop stitchin' it

If only for a -while a day
I give them dollar-day
That's my ghetto -holliday
