Steady Bootleggin Lyrics

    ["Some get over the hump... bootleggin!
    Some go down in the dark! Bootleggin.
    Some get over the hump... bootleggin!
    Some go down in the dark! Bootleggin.
    Steady bootleggin! Steady bootleggin!
    Steady bootleggin! Steady bootleggin!"]

    Verse One: Sadat X

    I've been watching you for about two weeks
    Selling phony imitations of myself
    if I chose to wild I might flip or break your table
    Strong arms tappin all your pockets
    Look, look at this tape, loose ass plastic
    Copy machine picture damn straight I'm gonna hit ya
    But I don't cause I maintain, you're just a common street peddler
    offender, the question revolves
    Is the record company involved?
    Hmm, dig the reality, is that I'm bein played
    Should somebody take the weight cause my pocket's like on E
    That I can't see, therefore I burnt teeth
    When I find the source to my loss of income
    I gots ta see him Jack, yo I gots ta see
    And the street vendor out there, don't steal don't sell my tape
    I don't give a fuck about the plea that you coppin
    Everyone's got problems sellin my tape ain't gonna solve em
    On my ave... holdin your eye with a heatin pad
    Dig the scene cat, knowledge the crime, know the time
    Or you'll be out much more than a dime

    ["So many fingers... steady bootleggin!
    Some of these high class ahead they still bootleggin!
    So many fingers... steady bootleggin!
    Some of these high class ahead they still bootleggin!
    Steady bootleggin! Steady bootleggin!
    Steady bootleggin! Steady bootleggin!"]

    Verse Two: Lord Jamar

    A kick in the ass from a leg and a boot
    Constitute the right to shoot one who steals my loot
    Bang bang like it ain't no thing to the bastard
    Who sold my shit before it's mastered
    Now how the fuck did you get a copy?
    It's an inside job or the security is sloppy
    But nevertheless I'm doin my best to solve this mess
    I find out, I blow a hole in his chest
    It's black music that they wanna discredit
    Garth Brooks ain't bootlegged cause they'd never let it
    happen, that's why I'm cappin and slappin
    All the motherfuckers sellin tapes to young black kids rappin
    They try to say hardcore don't sell
    But everywhere I go they killed my shit well
    New York to California everywhere in between
    know the flavor of the God so what the fuck do you mean?
    I gotta get my props in ninety-two it's up to you
    the listener to do your part and buy that bullshit from the start
    I can't get back what I don't receive
    Best believe they got a trick up they sleeve

    ["Too much bootleggin! Too much bootleggin is goin on!
    Too much bootleggin! Too much bootleggin is goin on.
    Too much bootleggin! Too much bootleggin is goin on!
    Too much bootleggin! Too much bootleggin is goin on."]
