Fish
Raekwon & Cappadonna Lyrics

These are the men who lead the crime families of America
I am in control of thousands of men in organized crime except for drugs. However, drugs will lead to ruin.

We eat fish, toss salads and make rap ballads

Like eighty roman candles that backfired then slammed you
My music can be explosive, like a fireworks show, but can also cause trouble if you get too close.

Every day is like a video shoot, check this shit
My life feels like a movie, and I am always ready to show off and party.
