Heist of the Recession
9th Prince Lyrics

You'll see, watch how it come together
I'm about to explain how our plan comes together, just watch.

That nigga 9th Prince is back? Oh, word?
Wow, people are surprised that I, 9th Prince, am back.

As I open up Marcus, chumps become targets
Once I start rapping, people who underestimate me become my targets.

Shooting at the sergeant, I'm uptown, laughing at these clowns
I'm making fun of other rappers and taking shots at them while I'm out in the city.

Surround sounds pounds the grounds
My music is so loud it vibrates through the streets.

We in front of a deli, little Shawn playing skully
We're outside of a deli, watching a kid play the street game skully.

Short Rico, just copped three kilos, and a light skin Benito
Rico and another guy named Benito just got three kilos of drugs.

Then I saw Is, he was walking with a wiz
I saw my friend Is walking with a girl.

Yo, son, I got a come-up, a heist, so we can both get nice
I have a plan to rob someone so we can both benefit from it.

Rock pimps in Jamaica, live in paradise
If we get away with this heist, we can live like kings in Jamaica.

But first we need guns and masks, to complete the task
In order to rob someone, we need to have weapons and disguises.

No doubt, son, just come with me upstairs
Okay, let's go upstairs so I can get the weapons.

So we can get them Glocks out the closet
We need to take the guns out of the closet.

Live the scene, to do what we gonna do
Let's act out our plan and do what we came here to do.

Get them niggas and they muthafucking crew, so here's what we do
Let's go after our target and their crew, and here's our plan to do it.

We lay on 'em, play on 'em, then sneak through the back on 'em
We'll ambush them, distract them, and then sneak in from behind.

Oh shit, 9th Prince, I ain't expect this shit
Oh no, I wasn't expecting to see 9th Prince here.

A bitch and a seed in the kitchen
There's a woman and a child in the kitchen.

So what the fuck, you wanna still go through with this, shit?
Do you really want to go through with this now that we see there are innocent people in the house?

Come on, nigga, let me know
Come on, tell me if you still want to go through with the heist.

Aiyo, fuck it, let's move, that's when I heard a voice
Okay, let's do it anyways. Then, I heard someone else's voice in the background.

Que pasa, boy, ay Rico, give up the goods or die hard in the hood
Someone is threatening Rico to either give up the drugs and money or die in the neighborhood.

Benito started reaching for his Suge Knight, desert eagle
One of the guys is trying to take out a gun.

With the infered light, Is had a half stick of dynamite
Is has a stick of dynamite with a light attached to it.

Nobody move, nobody die tonight
If everyone stays still, no one will die tonight.

All we want is the drugs and money, Playboy bunnies and honey
We just want the drugs, money, and women.

Rico try to play stupid, we don't know what you talking about
Rico is pretending that he doesn't know what we're talking about.

That's when I put the four-fifth, to his bitch face
I put a gun to Rico's girlfriend's face.

And said, yo Rico, give me what I want
I told Rico to give me what I'm asking for.

Or I splatter her fucking brains, all over the place
If he doesn't comply, I'll kill his girlfriend right there.

Then shot Benito in the chest, thought he was dead
I thought I killed Benito by shooting him in the chest.

Bitch ass nigga had on a muthafucking vest
But he was wearing a bulletproof vest.

Now see, muthafucka, what you made me do, made shit hot
You see what you made me do? You made this situation worse.

Lay you on the spot, now I got a body on my Glock
I killed someone and now their body is on my gun.

Stupid muthafucka trying to play hero, run your stash
He was a stupid guy trying to be a hero, so we took his drugs and money.

You don't know I blast that ass for that cash, kid, I'm starving
If you try to resist, I'll shoot you for that money. I need it to survive.

Yeah I do robbing, if the shit is right
I rob people if it's worth it.

Just like the shit up in here, tonight, with 9th Prince
This heist with 9th Prince is worth it.

Ramsack this place, so we can get the fuck up outta here
Let's quickly search this place so we can leave.

And head to them Islands
We'll go to the islands with our stolen money and drugs.

Rico finally gave in, walked him to the closet
Rico finally gave up and showed us where the drugs were.

That's when I spotted it, laying in the Gucci bag
That's when I saw the drugs, which were in a Gucci bag.

Slap, treated Rico like a fag
I hit Rico, treating him like a weak person.

Snatched up the three bricks, then it was time to split
I took the drugs and it was time for us to leave.

We ran out the crib, jetted up Broadway
We quickly left the house and ran up Broadway street.

Come on, son, yo, we out, yo, yo, we got that, son
Let's go, we got what we came for.

Came off my nigga (yeah, son, yeah, son)
We succeeded in our plan.

(You know how, yeah, son, yeah, we gon', yeah
We know how to do this and we succeeded this time too.

We just gonna eat with this shit, anyway
We'll use the stolen money and drugs to have a good life anyways.

Next man eat off the next man, shit
If you have to, use other people's resources to survive.

That's how it should be, youknowhatimean
That's just how life is sometimes.

For real, you can't even fault us for that, knowhatimean
Can you really blame us for doing what we have to do to survive?

For real, man, we gotta eat by any means necessary, son
Seriously, we have to do whatever it takes to survive.

For real, 9th, knowhatimean, for all my niggas, knowhatimsaying
9th Prince, we do what we have to do for ourselves and our friends.

For real, get down like that, that's how we get down)
That's just how we operate and survive.
