Remix (ha ha)
Lloyd Banks (uh-huh)
Ha ha
It's like a throne that he don't even own
He won't sit down, give him a crown, he just throws it around
It's like a joke, he's like a king, but he don't rule a thing
He don't want the ring, don't want the loot, he's in it for the sport
Runnin' circles 'round his competition on the court
He appreciates your support but he ain't beggin' for it
And you can love it, you can hate it but you can't ignore it
You can't be that ignorant but you can try to sell him short
But you can't fuck with his last joint or the one before it
And he was born to raise hell like them country boys
And if I'm frontin' then you better come confront me for it
This is the story of a warrior, I know you know it
True warriors go ahead and make some noise (yeah)
It ain't healthy to be makin' niggas paranoid
Hit your corner with my weapon, I don't need my boys
I'm doin' a hundred-twenty in the fast lane
Kick back, just relax, let me do my thing
Don't give a fuck about you suckas, gotta maintain (yeah)
Money, power and respect in this rap game
He's straight out of a neighborhood where niggas hate
To see you blow and eat your dinner off a bigger plate
Their stomach's ache while he's loungin' in the big estate
And he hops in a hundred thousand when a nigga skate
Houses with a bigger gate, houndin' him's a big mistake
He won't surrender, he'll rather give up a rib to break
'Cause he remembers when they wouldn't lend a helpin' hand
So he was sittin' on green like a Celtic fan
Created a buzz to where you gotta mention his name
When you discussin' the illest player that's in the game
And he's ridin' with Em, 50 Cent, Doc and them
G Unit records, ain't a motherfucker stoppin' them (stoppin' them)
This is the story of a warrior, I know you know it
True warriors go ahead and make some noise (yeah)
It ain't healthy to be makin' niggas paranoid
Hit your corner with my weapon, I don't need my boys
I'm doin' a hundred-twenty in the fast lane
Kick back, just relax, let me do my thing
Don't give a fuck about you suckas, gotta maintain
Money, power and respect in this rap game
He's no magician, man, the kid makes sometin' outta nuttin'
So now niggas from his hood act like he owe 'em somethin'
They talk crazy 'til he send niggas to where they buck 'em
Ask 'em if it's a problem and he'll say, "Nah, it's nothin'"
He's was gonna help 'em out, but since they fronted, fuck 'em (fuck 'em)
He don't care how they feel, they can hate 'em or love 'em (ha ha)
He hold his own on his own, the kid is really thuggin'
He's rich now, he ain't changed so niggas think he buggin' (yeah)
He bulletproof everything case niggas try and buck him (uh-huh)
Keep two pistols on his hip, I'll show you where he tuck 'em
Niggas say they gon' get at him but they can't touch him
Try to catch 'em slippin', they creepin' and start bustin'
This is the story of a warrior, I know you know it
True warriors go ahead and make some noise (yeah)
It ain't healthy to be makin' niggas paranoid
Hit your corner with my weapon, I don't need my boys
I'm doin' a hundred-twenty in the fast lane
Kick back, just relax, let me do my thing
Don't give a fuck about you suckas, gotta maintain
Money, power and respect in this rap game
I can give you niggas somethin' you can talk about
I can turn you're smile upside down
You ain't no G, you a fuckin' clown
I can take your girl and tu-uh, turn her out
Don't hold it in, let it all out
I can give you fuckas somethin' to be mad about
Invite her in, send her back out
With my DNA all in her mouth

More underrated songs like this from 50 cent and Eminem are actually mostly better than their mainstream ones. Who agrees?
@shriharihudli8596
I agree. I’ve felt the same thing for years, underground shit is the best.
