Know The Ledge - Eric B. & Rakim[00:00:00]

Sip the juice cuz I got enough to go around[00:00:07]

And the thought takes place uptown[00:00:10]

I grew up on the sidewalk[00:00:12]

Where I learned street talk[00:00:14]

And then taught to hawk New York[00:00:15]

I go to Queens for queens[00:00:16]

To get the crew from Brooklyn[00:00:17]

Make money in Manhattan and never been tooken[00:00:18]

Go Uptown and the Bronx to boogie down[00:00:20]

Get strong on the Island recoupe and lay around[00:00:22]

Time to bulid my juice back up[00:00:24]

Props back up suckers get smacked up[00:00:26]

Don't doubt the clout you know what I'm about[00:00:28]

Knocking niggaz off knocking niggaz out[00:00:30]

Shaking 'em up waking 'em up[00:00:32]

Raking 'em up breaking 'em up[00:00:34]

Standing on shaky grounds too close to the edge[00:00:37]

Let's see if I know the ledge[00:00:39]

Corners' trifling 'cause shorty's here[00:00:49]

I get cockd liffin' forty's of beer[00:00:51]

Here's a sip for the crew that's deceased[00:00:53]

If I get revenge then they rest in peace[00:00:55]

Somebody's got to suffer I just might spare one[00:00:58]

And give a brother a fair one[00:01:00]

Stay alert and on ps[00:01:02]

And I do work with these like Hercules[00:01:03]

Switch to southpaw split your right jaw[00:01:06]

'Cause I don't like fall[00:01:08]

I'm hype when night fall[00:01:09]

Smooth but I move like an army[00:01:10]

Bulletproof down in case brothers try to bomb me[00:01:12]

Putting brothers to rest like Elliot ness[00:01:14]

'Cause I don't like stress[00:01:16]

Streets ain't a place[00:01:18]

For innocent bystanders to stand[00:01:19]

Nutting's gonna stop the plan[00:01:21]

I'll chill like Pacino kill like DeNiro[00:01:22]

Black Gambino die like a hero[00:01:24]

Living on shaky grounds too close to the edge[00:01:26]

Let's see if I know the ledge[00:01:29]

Shells lay around on the battleground[00:01:39]

Dead bodies are found throughout the town[00:01:41]

Tried to put shame in my game to[00:01:43]

Make a name I'm a[00:01:44]

Put it on a bullet put it in your brain[00:01:45]

Rip the block like a buckshot[00:01:47]

Who cares where it goes just keep the casket closed[00:01:48]

No remorse when a life is lost[00:01:51]

I paid my dues paid the cost[00:01:53]

And my pockets are still fat[00:01:56]

Wherever I'm at I get the welcome mat[00:01:57]

Even if my crew steep with one deep[00:01:59]

I attract attention people like to peep[00:02:02]

So come say hi to the badguy[00:02:03]

Don't say goodbye I don't plan to die[00:02:06]

'Cause I get loose and I got troops[00:02:08]

And crazy juice[00:02:11]

In control of many like Ayatollah Khomeini[00:02:12]

Hang out wit Smith and[00:02:14]

Wesson don't try to play me[00:02:15]

I'm at war alot like Anwar Sadat[00:02:17]

But no warning shot my gun is warm alot[00:02:18]

When I cook beef the smoke will never clear[00:02:20]

Areas in fear but this here's a fear[00:02:22]

Living life too close to the edge[00:02:24]

Hoping that I know the ledge[00:02:27]

A brand new morn no time to yawn[00:02:37]

Shower's on power's on[00:02:39]

Late for school I catch the train[00:02:41]

Girls sip Cristal and whisper my name[00:02:43]

I push up like an exercise[00:02:45]

Check the intellect and inspect the thighs[00:02:47]

Select the best one pull her to the side[00:02:49]

Keep her occupied for the rest of the ride[00:02:51]

Read my resume she's know I'm 'ready cool[00:02:54]

Just meet me after school[00:02:56]

We can moan and groan until your mom come home[00:02:57]

And you be calling me Al dope Capone[00:03:00]

Sweatin' me she didn't want to let me loose[00:03:02]

Come get me that's if you want to sip the juice[00:03:03]

'Cause the streets await me[00:03:05]

So I take my gun off safety[00:03:07]

'Cause alot of niggaz hate me[00:03:08]

Coming out of the building they set me up[00:03:10]

Sprayed wit automatics they wet me up[00:03:12]

In a puddle of blood I lay close to the edge[00:03:14]

I guess I didn't know the ledge[00:03:17]
