Filthiest fiends scream for more Bless me out of state, howdy Jake's, Starks is back Niggas want work, now I pull back off a G-Pack Coke rocks flood the co-ops living gossip Them big lip niggas singing to cops need to box it Stop it, the projects overflooded with slow leaks The fiends get, new faces get wrapped in sheets I gotta get mine, like my old Earth, bless the cheese blind Sipping on fine wine, the power of the blacks refined (Raining) Divine Waiting on these royalties takes too long It's like waiting on babies, it makes me want to slay these But that's ungodly, so yo God, pardon me I need it real quick, the dope flow like penmanship Meat heads get pistol-whipped, I blow spots like horse shit So now talk shit nigga, what??

It's raining, he's changing My man is going insane, insane Word up dun Peace to Philly, VA, these days Word up y'all, word up The sun moon and stars fly cars, word up y'all No sunlight, more gun fights I've lost him to the street life, street life No cash flow, no more dough He's someone I don't even know, someone I don't know Rainy Dayz, getting through those rainy dayz I lost him to the street life, the street life, whoa
