Five Steez, Mordecai 
Check, check 
Yes, yes 
This is part of my journey 
Listen to me 
Yow 

You talk shit, I live it, what you dreamt of, I did it (yeah) 
F*ck a hater or a critic, I use them as a pivot 
Treat them like bigots, opinions is useless 
Facts is what matters and your work is where the proof is 
For years, I been doing this, and many others too (long time) 
Repping the movement and running with the toughest crews 
So pardon me if I ask who the f*ck are you
You such a fool, you move like a sucker do (uh huh) 
Check the catalogue, over the past five years 
Amount to many careers, please respect it (you better respect it) 
Especially if you never dropped a decent record 
Or even a recent effort, you speech is reckless (reckless) 
Check my ethics, put in work, stay on point 
It don't take much for me to write or lay a joint (uh huh) 
The hunger is still here, and I'm more determined 
I persevered, and the fire still burning 

I work, what about you
You complain all day, not a damn thing you do 
We could never par, you not in my crew 
You talk too much so I know you not true 
I work, what about you
You complain all day, not a damn thing you do 
We could never par, you not in my crew 
You talk too much so I know you not true 

I wake up, wish I could bake up 
Go to slave on the plantation and get my paper 
Still sending out applications with my data 
Even though I'm dope enough for Complex and The Fader (fi real) 
Large Up to Okayplayer, I'm the mayor (salute) 
Rhyme sayer, dragon slayer, this is my prayer 
I know I'll make it 'cause I believe in it alone 
And you hear it in my voice when I spit a poem 
With these words, I can beat you like sticks and stones 
Or I could reach you just like the teacher Mrs Jones (yeah) 
So I hit the studio and play Mordecai beats 
I get the truth to flow, it's from the core that I speak 
I'm on my grind like my niggaz that's more in the street (uh) 
Except it's not my backyard where I'm storing the heat 
I'm cooking up rhymes every day, reflecting my life 
Signed, sealed, from me to you, this letter I write 

I work, what about you
You complain all day, not a damn thing you do 
We could never par, you not in my crew 
You talk too much so I know you not true 
I work, what about you
You complain all day, not a damn thing you do 
We could never par, you not in my crew 
You talk too much so I know you not true 

A lot of speculation on the moves I've made (Dem a watch mi) 
Niggaz is sounding hurt like they dude got slain 
Busy watching me and can't emulate 
Trying to get my secrets, wanna interrogate 
You hella lame, see through like cellophane 
Walking with your head in the sky like aeroplanes 
I stay grounded as confident as I'm sounding 
Nuff man get boost up because of who deh around dem (uh huh) 
And some just pree evil for no good reason (yeah) 
Some are just demons, others straight heathens 
As long as I'm breathing, I promise to do good 
I have faults but I can't do what you could 
And that's hate on another for what they work for (nah) 
More than a surfer, you a stalker slash lurker 
That's why I treat you cold like Serbia, this ain't Persia 
I'm independent and we could never have a merger 

I work, what about you
You complain all day, not a damn thing you do 
We could never par, you not in my crew 
You talk too much so I know you not true 
I work, what about you
You complain all day, not a damn thing you do 
We could never par, you not in my crew 
You talk too much so I know you not true 
I work, what about you
You complain all day, not a damn thing you do 
We could never par, you not in my crew 
You talk too much so I know you not true 
I work, what about you
You complain all day, not a damn thing you do 
We could never par, you not in my crew 
You talk too much so I know you not true
I work
