The Chase
A To Z Lyrics

Greyhound bitch, stay down bitch
Addressing someone as a submissive and obedient 'bitch'

Bout to set up shop with Jay, round this bitch
Planning to start business with Jay-Z in this area

Half a brick of Yay', 'bout to lay down this bitch
About to start selling drugs in this place with a significant amount of product

('Til November?) Nah, I'm here to like slay down this bitch
Not planning on leaving this place soon, and intending on dominating the drug trade

What you think? I don't wanna have to spray down this bitch
Threatening to use violence if necessary

Call my whole team, from around the way down this bitch
Bringing in a group of associates to help with the operation

I'm tryin to stay down this bitch, play down this bitch
Attempting to establish a long-term presence and keep a low-key profile

Had a sound, so my nigga Jay drown the six
Playing loud music from Jay-Z's car to mask any suspicious activity

Roll the windows down and, wait round this bitch
Leaving the car windows open and waiting in the area, potentially for customers or deal opportunities

But there's a couple things 'fore it's OK round this bitch
Making sure the local community is accepting of the operation before proceeding

I gotta talk to the natives, let em know I'm here
Meeting with local residents to establish rapport and let them know of intentions

For all to get the paydays, first I line up all the haters
First, dealing with any opposition or rivals to ensure profit without interference

I got jobs for ya, drop stars for ya
Offering work and connections to locals

More arms than Green Bay's Brett Favre for ya
Claiming to have access to an abundance of weapons

Money propositions hope that's not a problem for ya
Offering financial incentives to whoever cooperates

If so, Jigga be here, day after tomorrow for ya (that's right!)
Implying Jay-Z will deal with any issues that may arise in the future

Gotta get that paper dog
The motivation is to make money

Gotta touch that, love that, paper dog, uhh!
The desire is to fondle, love, and obtain money

Gotta have that grab that paper dog!
Insisting on obtaining and seizing money

Gotta spend that, bend that, split that, get that
Willing to spend, manipulate, divide, and obtain money at any cost

When I needs that, G stack, tell me where the weed's at?
Asking where to find marijuana to sell

I got my two guns, I came to scoop ones
Carrying firearms and intending to acquire more drugs

A down ass bitch and she down to click
A loyal woman who is willing to help and potentially commit violent acts

Got a nice little hooptie that I get around with
Driving an unremarkable and average car to avoid attention

And my plan is, not to leave this town 'til I'm rich
Staying in the area until achieving financial success

Gotta find a nigga sellin all them ounces and shit
Searching for someone selling drugs in bulk

Tell them get down with the click or get found in a ditch
Forcing cooperation or threatening violence if necessary

See I drop down and strip, I turn around and spit
Performing a dance move (a 'strip') before speaking

Not to hit em, just to let em know the sound of shit
Making a loud noise (not necessarily physical) to intimidate or assert dominance

Return later that evening in the club with Fox
Going to a club later that night with someone named Fox

And I got the snub nosed for those that love to box
Carrying a small yet deadly firearm to potentially use in self-defense

I'm in search of them young niggas that hug the block
Looking for young men who regularly sell drugs on street corners

All day, til it's light gray outside
Referring to the drug dealers' long working hours

Shoot dice talkin shit all day outside
Playing craps and engaging in conversation while working

And even when it's hot, they outside
Continuing to work despite unfavorable weather conditions

Let em know, how it's gon' go, Bonnie n Clyde
Asserting control and referring to oneself and partner as the famous criminal couple

And ayo, you will want me on your side
Implying that the singer's support is valuable and potentially useful

I got that stress and I got it the best
Being in possession of high-quality, pure drugs

I ain't got it to give but I got it to test
Not giving away drugs, but testing their quality for potential buyers

And if you wanna get down, all you gotta invest
Offering opportunity to make money if willing to contribute

Is your time, I gotta move this in a, week or less
Only allowing a short amount of time to complete the business deal

For the next couple of days I brought her all I possess
Giving all possessions to a female partner for safekeeping

The Rolex, necklaces with the VVS
Referring to expensive personal jewelry

Between the driver and the passenger with a TV rest
Having a television in the car between the two front seats

For my top draft picks I cop the new GS
Buying high-end vehicles for the most valuable associates

Now all the little soldiers wanna roll with my team
Attracting followers to be part of the business operation

'Cause I ain't sold 'em a dream, I just showed em the cream
Leading by example and producing monetary success without false promises

Picked em up in the afternoons and told 'em some things
Recruiting new associates during daytime hours

You know the regular shit you do when you moldin them teens
Giving guidance and advice to younger recruits

Yo, never lay your head where you holdin them things
Advising not to keep drugs in personal living spaces

Your family then your business, nothing goes in between
Prioritizing personal relationships before business

Never fear no man, put four in his Beem
Not being afraid of confrontation and potentially firing four shots at someone's car

Drop your gun then, blow the scene, ya heard me?
Putting down one's weapon and leaving the situation quickly and discreetly
