Testo Slippin - Lil' Kim
Testo della canzone Slippin (Lil' Kim), tratta dall'album Retro Rap Bangers
Now don't you know that they want to
Catch you slippin' with no protection?
Lead you in the wrong direction
Every n- around you is a reflection
Of you when you were at your lowest point in your life
'Cause n- wanna catch you slippin'
Don't let 'em catch you slippin', slippin', slippin'
No more Mrs. Nice B-
N- done flipped the script and got on some sheist sh-
Sellin' they soul when love is priceless
They kicked me when I was down and stuck in a crisis
I kept it all in, and now I'm 'bout to erupt
Man, f- the law, the whole system's corrupt
A street grudge put me in front of a judge
But I stood there like what, the Bee don't budge
It's a foul game, no such thing as fair play
And real n- get railroaded everyday
Words misconstrued and used against you
Then you get screwed when it's time to sentence you
World cavin' in, it's a sh- sitch-i-ation
A year and a day, three years probation
Public humiliation, poor representation
Guilty by association
Now don't you know that they want to
Catch you slippin' with no protection?
Lead you in the wrong direction
Every n- around you is a reflection
Of you when you were at your lowest point in your life
'Cause n- wanna catch you slippin'
Don't let 'em catch you slippin', slippin', slippin'
I'm a stand-up type, grew up in the projects
And that's worth more than material objects
A lot of things come when they know you got it
You a target, and now they tryin' to get in the pockets
Lawsuits, lawyers prosecute for profit
Meanwhile, the media promotin' the gossip
I had to say it, 'cause I'm that real with it
You shinin' like a star, then you gotta deal with it
And dudes pick to take these groupies to bed
Better watch it 'fore they write a book about like Superhead
F- 'em and leave 'em, then they after your paper
Put a hole in the condom and say that you raped her
See, you can be a rapper, athlete or an actor
Believe me, these devils find a way to get at ya
All it takes is some green and your face on the screen
F- it, just say I took one for the team
Now don't you know that they want to
Catch you slippin' with no protection?
Lead you in the wrong direction
Every n- around you is a reflection
Of you when you were at your lowest point in your life
'Cause n- wanna catch you slippin'
Don't let 'em catch you slippin', slippin', slippin'
In these streets, you gotta sleep with one eye open
And watch for the snakes and the Jakes approachin'
'Cause it could be the ones that you laugh and joke with
The ones you smoke with, and sold your coke with
I set you up for the right piece of change
And have your brains on the dashboard of the Range
Too often, I seen a n- layin' in the coffin
All 'cause some sh- was blown out of proportion
Everywhere you go, you gotta move with caution
'Cause the rap game ain't much different than the crack game
It's the new hustle, gotta have brains and muscle
Get too much money and these haters wanna touch you
Now I can see why they all on me
N- do dirty work, the sh- fall on me
Not only do you gotta watch the boys in blue
But the n- in your crew, you gotta watch them too
Now don't you know that they want to
Catch you slippin' with no protection?
Lead you in the wrong direction
Every n- around you is a reflection
Of you when you were at your lowest point in your life
'Cause n- wanna catch you slippin'
Don't let 'em catch you slippin', slippin', slippin'
