It's Alright
Co.Z Lyrics

Bounce if you wanna bounce, ball if you wanna ball
Do what you want to do, enjoy yourself and have fun as you please

Play if you wanna play, floss if you wanna floss
Engage in activities that you find entertaining, and express yourself however you like

It's alright, you heard?, it's alright, holla back
You're free to do as you please, and there's nothing wrong with that. Let me know if you need anything

Get ill if you wanna ill, smoke if you wanna smoke
If you want to act tough or smoke, go ahead and do it. It doesn't matter to me

Kill if you wanna kill, loc if you wanna loc
If you want to engage in illegal or violent activities, that's your choice. But be aware of the consequences

I need a ho in my life to blow on my dice
I want to have a woman in my life who can help me win at gambling

So we can make our points twice and skate out a town
We can make double the money and quickly leave town

I need that glow in my ice, e-class
I want my jewelry to sparkle and shine, just like a luxury car

Ladies screamin jigga you know we ease that, flowin out like jees-ass
Women are attracted to us and our smooth style and flow

Jay-z and me holdin the mic
Jay-Z and I are performing together, and we're in control of the stage

So when you like you find mc's so impolite
When you compare us to other rappers, you'll see that we're much more polite and respectful

And me I'm so into nice, got cats on the corner like
I'm all about living the good life, and people in the neighborhood know it

Don't me and jigga be flowin alike?
Aren't Jay-Z and I very similar in our style and flow?

Nah, not in your life ain't nobody copin like
No one can compare to us and our unique style

Mr. jay-z, shit you're crazy
Jay-Z is amazing and incredibly talented

I'm hot like the six maybe, deep dish with the great seats
I'm on fire with my skills, like a powerful car with the best features

I flow greater than you're navigator
My rhymes are better and more powerful than your navigational system

I drop in you're town, block you're data
When I arrive in your city, I make an impact and can even disrupt technology

Pimps all comin through with a hot pair of gators
I'm surrounded by successful and stylish men, who even wear expensive alligator shoes

And a crew with rocks the size of craters
My crew has huge and expensive diamonds, so big they could be mistaken for craters

Can't touch like hot potatoes, ya heard?
You can't come close to our level of success and power, and everyone knows it

In the middle of a war rockin a vest
Despite being in a dangerous situation, I'm still prepared and protected

Who's the illest shorty alive, I confess
I am the best and most skilled rapper around

I take nine to the chest and I swear to the heaven sky's, I bless
I've been in dangerous situations and have been shot, but I'm still grateful to be alive and blessed

The mics until the day I rest, till they can feel what I feel
I'll continue to perform and create music until I die, so that others can experience the same emotions and feelings as me

I'ma try my best, and if you real like I real
I'll always give my best effort, and I hope that others will do the same if they're truly authentic and genuine

You can provide the rest
Make your own effort to complete the task or goal

Anything left out, you can blame it on the brain, not the heart
If there's anything missing or incomplete, it's due to a lack of intelligence, not a lack of effort or feelings

I'm playing my part, stretched out, just about the best out
I'm doing my best and playing my role to the fullest extent

Any nigga realer than me, is in a mess hall with their chest out
I am the most authentic and genuine rapper out there, and anyone who claims otherwise is overcompensating

Any rapper with less clout, sell more records than me
Less successful rappers can still sell more albums than me, but that doesn't mean they're better or more skilled

We extort them as soon as they record 'em, bleek
We immediately take advantage of lesser-known rappers, as a way to further our own success

My name is clear, back when a shorty used to braid my hair
I have a clean reputation and was even an innocent kid at one point

On the project stairs, once I drop to a ceaser ma I don't need ya
I used to have a more simple haircut, but now I don't need anyone else's opinion or approval

From the block to the hot two-seaters
I've come a long way from my humble beginnings, and now I can afford luxury cars

On the two jew-el's I blew more money than latrell, who else?
I've spent a lot of money on my jewelry, more than even Latrell Sprewell

They don't know you, think they know you too well, you jell
People don't really know your true self, and they're jealous of your success and fame

Like flubber I hover above the city in a private jet
I'm flying high and living luxuriously, just like the fictional substance flubber in the movie

The livest set, press you're brakes, feds wanna investigate, mr. I don't cop nothin
I have the most exciting and impressive music performances, and even law enforcement wants to know more about me. But I don't take part in illegal activities

Less than eight, and anything involved with my name
I only associate with the highest quality and most prestigious items and events

Regardless of the fame
No matter how famous I become, I won't compromise my values or integrity

It's hard, I can't even walk through harlem again
My level of fame and success has made it difficult for me to go back to my roots in Harlem without attracting a ton of attention

Charge it to the game, I'm platinum like american express
I accept that fame and fortune have changed my life, but I'm still incredibly successful like the Platinum American Express card

My boy died, and all I did was inherit his stress
My friend died, and now I have to deal with the resulting stress and pressure

To make every jam tougher, you ain't my man fuck ya
I'm always striving to improve my performances and music, and I don't care about anyone who can't keep up

I suggest let you live right? negative, I swear
I won't let anyone tell me how to live my life, and I'll react negatively to anyone who tries

It's dough or die, I hope your soul provides you with an afterlife
Success and money are everything to me, and I hope that when you die, you'll still have something to show for it

Close you're casket tight
Make sure your funeral is well-planned and impressive, since that's all you'll have left

Take you're last two deep breaths and pass the mic to jay-z nigga, that's right!!
Perform your last rap and then give the stage to Jay-Z, who will continue to entertain and impress the audience
