Scram
Freddie Foxxx Lyrics

Rockin is a state of mind for niggaz who really do it
True emcees live it, they don't just talk about it

Leavin suckaz behind and can't move through it
Real emcees leave weak rappers in the dust and can't be slowed down by them

You cut a throat to do better than niggaz doing better
Some rappers will do anything to be on top, even if it means taking out those who are better than them

But you can't cut the neck of the second letter
You can't get rid of those who are ahead of you by taking out the second letter of their name (e.g. LL Cool J)

Niggaz swearing that he nice when he really suck
Some rappers claim to be great when they actually suck

And yo ruck why do rappers say they thugs and gangstas
Foxy wonders why so many rappers claim to be tough guys and gangsters

When they halloween dress up nigga panty hose
But in reality, they are just playing dress up like on Halloween, wearing panty hose as if they're tough

Acting like he hard with them new edition candy girl flow
Some rappers try to act tough despite having a soft, poppy flow like New Edition's Candy Girl

I'm funky like george sir knows
Foxy's flow is funky and undeniable, like George Clinton's music

I'm real like tax time you try to escape
Foxy is as real as paying taxes -- you can try to avoid it, but he will always catch up to you

I clamp down on your real estate and your fake estate
Foxy will take control of both your actual possessions and your fake, inflated sense of worth

That means everything rented borrowed stolen
He's coming for everything you acquired illegally, whether it was rented, borrowed, or stolen

I Come like ?? it us
Unclear meaning

Under pressure buss it
He performs well even under pressure

Philly soul reaching
Referencing Philly soul music that he channels in his music

Bumpy heart touching
His music has a deep emotional impact

Jazzy like jeff nigga I'm not a giraffe
He has a smooth, jazzy flow like DJ Jazzy Jeff but is not a tall, long-necked animal like a giraffe

I'm bumpy abdu jamal I clap you fast
Foxy is tough and dangerous like political prisoner Mumia Abu-Jamal and will easily take you out

And be dead centre chest like the gold medallion
He will hit you right in the center of your chest like a gold medallion necklace

That hangs around a neck on a old italian
Referencing Italian mafia members who wear gold chains

Scram kid your new to me you bother
He doesn't have time for weak, new rappers

Cause I know you niggaz really ain't thugs
He knows that many rappers who claim to be tough guys are not really thugs

you trying to be hardcore but you really not
They're just pretending to be hardcore

I'll write your eulogy you bother me
If you get in Foxy's way, he'll take you out and even write your eulogy

It'll be no help from family or friends
No one will be able to save you once Foxy is after you

nobody can really help you now
You're on your own

Here I am the real emcee
Foxy is the real deal, a true emcee

Writing off sucka emcees like I'm dmc
He easily takes out weak emcees like the group Run-DMC

Little killers in the bm 3
He's got some dangerous members in his crew

Follow one be in the black 600 with the one true v
His crew follows him with a black Mercedes-Benz S600 with only one V12 engine

I'm in V12 but wherever I dwell
Even when he's in a high-powered car like a Mercedes-Benz S600 with a V12 engine, he'll always be in control

They bust for me in heaven they bust for me from hell
Even in the afterlife, Foxy's influence and power will be felt

Cause I'm still hot any rapper I fear not
He's not afraid of any other rapper because he's still on top

I give it to you raw like my pops was gil scott
He's not holding back in his music, just like his father Gil Scott-Heron didn't hold back in his activism and music

Mama was jill scott humming melodies
He comes from a family of talented musicians, with his mother Jill Scott providing beautiful melodies

My head on her chest feeling the bass in her breast
He comes from a musical background, with his mother's music even affecting him on a physical level as he felt the bass in her breast

Time nor space exists for the man that knows the eternal
A wise man who understands the eternal doesn't worry about time or space

Don't make me return you
He can easily send you back where you came from

You can pull it out wave it no doubt
You can try to intimidate him with a weapon but he won't be scared

But before you bust it off here's one to think about
Before you shoot, consider the consequences

Come to bumpy get your heart tested
If you want to prove yourself, go to Foxy and he'll test your courage

If you pass you'll be passing out
If you pass Foxy's test, you'll be so relieved that you might faint

I'm blasting in and I'm blasting out
He's coming in strong and leaving even stronger

I'm more convinced now than on a part on my life
He's more confident than ever before in his life

That I'm a die with rhyming kids and a rhyming wife
His music will always be a part of him and his family

I'm a body every nigga that ever did me trife
He's not afraid to take out anyone who has wronged him before

That's word to great grand grandma indian and her carving knife
He swears on his native ancestor, who was skilled with a knife

I'm power in its finest hour ask queen latifah
He's at the height of his power right now, just ask Queen Latifah who he's worked with

Whose the hardest rap gansgta that she'll ever speak ta
Foxy is the toughest rapper that Queen Latifah has ever encountered

Matter fact check my album industry shook down
His album has scared the music industry and made them take notice of his undeniable talent

Niggaz is shook down
Other rappers are intimidated by him

Its time for revolution
He believes it's time for a change and a revolution in the music industry and beyond

Cause I see booty its wax prostitution
He sees the shallow, sexualized nature of some of the music industry and calls it out

'I'm the chairmen of busting niggaz with chairs
He's the boss of taking out weak rappers

Cracking niggaz heads open with heineken beers
He's so tough that he can even crack someone's head open with a beer bottle

Most people see my shadow black and wide
People recognize Foxy's influence and power even when they can't see him in person

But can't see my heart black with pride
They can't see the passion and pride that drives him to make powerful music

Cause you got a devil inside
Some rappers are so evil and misguided that they have a devil inside them

Plotting for the spot where the late great biggie reside
Some rappers will do whatever it takes to reach the level of legendary rapper Notorious B.I.G.

I be a father like big chuck
Foxy will take up the mantle of being a father figure for the younger generation, like Biggie's mentor Big Chuck

Raising my son and keep the enemy close and bust their gun
He will raise his son to be prepared for all threats and to take out his enemies

I step to a few niggaz and made em all one
He has the power to unite different rappers and bring them together

With a 16 shot beretta that I call fun
He takes out his enemies with ease using a 16-shot Beretta

Music must reflect the time time reflect the music
Music should accurately represent the time and era it's being made in, and the time we're living in should be reflected in the music

The shorty come correct if you next to use it
If you're next up to use the mic, make sure you come correct

From lil bow wow to lil zane
He's seen rappers come and go, from a young Lil Bow Wow to Lil Zane

I told lista kane brother little daddy shane
He's even given advice to newcomers like Lista Kane and Little Daddy Shane

I always spit a nigga name
He'll call out anyone who's not at his level

And hope to god he answer then I get all in his body
He's not afraid to get physical with anyone who disrespects him

Like a nasty cancer
He's not a pleasant presence, but rather a destructive and invasive force

I take honour and take pride in the mic and I fight for it
He takes pride in his craft and is willing to fight to keep his place at the top

Like it was a civil rights baby
He sees the microphone as a tool for a greater cause, like the Civil Rights Movement
