First thing I can remember is an evening years back. The four of us was together even then. And from that time on, nothing was ever gonna be quite the same again. Yeah, especially us." [Royce Da 5'9"] + (Selena Jordan) G-G-God given, I'm killin this bomb bid'ness I'm callin rap that because I put my time in it I-I don't mind bein, ready to die as long as it's at an arena and we did it and my momma seen it This is my arm swingin, and my alarm ringin Fightin against time but writin is on singin In light of my wallet just look how the mighty have fallen You fell forward, say bye to them, say hi to Ryan maturin I can't (lose) cause God won't let me (lose) Bet against me and you gon' (lose) anybody'll tell you (nah) Nah, I knew the cats knew I was down so I fell back Hit the ground landed on my feet vertical, fell back through So you can (lose) I will never lay down and (lose) I-I-I was definitely about to (lose) then Eminem came like (nah) Nah, this shit is entertainin Listen to the shit they sayin, venom is sprayin Which is why, all I know is I'm at an all-time ultimate high inspired by an all-time low [Chorus 2X: sample from "Ali In the Jungle" by The Hours] "Oh-ohhh-oh, oh-ohhh-oh, oh-ohhh-oh" "How quick are you gonna get up? How quick are you gonna get up?" [Crooked I] + (Selena Jordan) In these days life is short, shots'll try to end you And this game is like a sport, comp'll try to pin you I leave the stage on life support when I rock a venue If you ain't got a knife and fork you probably on the menu If I ain't make history before I left It'll be like usin my last important breath before my death for snortin meth! More or less I'm, Jordan-esque, I ignore the refs I sell ya like you morphed into an orphan, yes! (Lose) Nah, I never (lose) Yeah, you said I would (lose) my destiny said (nah) Homie you went against me, foolish as Judas, nigga you're lost Now I'm feelin like Black Jesus, wrong nigga to cross Won't (lose) if I refuse to (lose) The fact that I used to (lose) is makin me say (nah) This is how we attackin it, four rappers who passionate took the idea of a group and re-imagined it without plannin it, now the whole planet has to admit that's the shit! [Chorus] [Joell Ortiz] + (Selena Jordan) Uhh, e'rybody y'all invited to a crazy party Have some fun blockin the sun with the Shady army These women is feelin like skin baby they be on me My flow water for sure, I'm a great tsunami I'm with my awesome clique, on another tourin trip From front of the stage all the way back to the door it's thick Like secretly filmin a mob we recordin hits What a fuckin lifestyle, maybe that's why I'm on my dick (Lose) Man I ain't about to (lose) I don't know how to (lose) you beatin the Yaowa?

(nah) But if y'all need me to make it clear, for those slightly impaired Like a flat in a snowstorm with no gas we ain't goin nowhere We the 60-minute group cause this year finna be hour/our year! [Chorus] [Joe Budden] + (Selena Jordan) A mixture of showman and skill, imposin my will, a visionary Want me with my back to the ground, I ain't with the missionary Walk in my shoes and reap all that I gained Along with every invisible wall that accompanies fame Louis Vuitton frames cover the scars that go with stardom Got enemies that I birthed, these bars are for postpartum So I tuck me the steel plate They threatenin me from behind a condom but you can't scream fuck me and feel safe You'll just (lose) some people are prayin I (lose) I thought I was set up to (lose) then Slaughterhouse came like (nah) Nah, so I live by a real simple philosophy If you stay grounded watch God keep givin you reasons not to be Can't (lose) it's not in my plan to (lose) If I so happen to (lose) is that even possible? (nah) Keep that outta my reach, still I'm prayin the sheep get manifested Let the flow stage dive and hope that the fans'll catch it If you ever persevered you should understand the message [Chorus] [Outro] "The rest, what they say, is history."
