INTRO:
Don't hate cause it's dangerous, don't hate cause it's
dangerous! (2X)
AHMAD JONES:
Out my cage / I was trapped / just escaped so I'm strapped /
with heat / this ain't make believe rap / this that real
cause I'm real'a / raised in the thick of this wilderness
makin' y'all sick cause I'm ill' a / often in tears cause I
feel I've been slept on for years but I'm still re-/ spected
by peers elite lyri-cists / today hip hop's an illusion like
smoke with some mirrors / label tripped so we shook like a
tambourine / called us odds / and they don't like gam-b-ling
/ let us go must be smokin' a gang of dank / this gon' blow
we don't care 'bout who thank it ain't / offered crumbs said
''Fool, we not after that'' / y'all gon' pay us or give up
that master dat / Think we slaves for these scraps? / nah,
we get paid for these tracks / this ain't that make believe
rap / at shows I kill it like a can of Raid / cause I don't
flow I explode like a hand grenade / just doin' what true
artists used to do / that's why I get love on more Alleys
than Lucy Lu / fools upset at us mad cause' we still afloat
/ Interscope attempted but can't kill us though / told 'em
no/ we ain't Limp Bizqit we got soul / on a mission with
intentions to heal the globe / gon' stay
in-de-p-e-n-d-e-n-t's / think we prostitutes and they some
pi-m-p's / we ain't signing nothing 'less we seeing cheese /
still I won't fake for no paper cause' we M.C/'s / I ain't
scared of no war cause' we warriors / that fight the power
like Neo and Morpheus / cut y'all out it just leaves a lot
more for us / blowing up B-I-G like we Notorious!
TENA JONES:
Nobody knows the trouble I've seen / nobody knows my sorrow
/ nobody knows the trouble I've seen / nobody sees
tomorrow
CHORUS:
Don't hate cause it's dangerous, don't hate cause it's
dangerous (4X)
