Crosstown Beef ( Remix) Songtext / Lyric

(Redman)
Long I, too
Medina Green
The Mighty Mos Def
Can't forget Cess
Everyday
Lace the beats up, tell 'em, D


[Ludacris]
Four AM, laid up at the res
Got a call made my heart jump out my chest
My man's got beef at the dance, exits is blocked
Enemies outside with they heat on cop
He's says that if he goes outside
He knows he gon' get clapped
My man from way back

[Master P
Ain't going out like that
He got peoples in the club and his ties is strong
But he know that they can only hold it down for so long
So now he's trapped off and he's calling on me
To come and represent like I'm GOD
Of course I must agree, 'cause this is family
If tables was turned he would do it for me
So now I'm hopping out my bed
Ready put a nigga never seen pon dead
Guess a black man can't have no peace
Pull out my heat
Woke up out my sleep over crosstown beef


CHORUS:
Crosstown beef be like crosstown traffic (thick)
Brothers be on some real shit
Every man get scared and prepare for confrontation
When the slugs penetrate, you feel a burning sensation
Crosstown beef be like crosstown traffic (thick)
Brothers be on some real shit
Every man get scared when prepared for confrontation
Getting closer to God, in a tight situation


[Redman]
Yo, check it

It was a friday in the month of may
Around the time when everybody put they game on play
See my girl was out in Deesa, it was all on me
I figured I would hit the metro on the mad LD
Now everybody know what the spring time is about
Players polish up they game, 'cause the shorties be out

(Ludacris)
I was rocking jewels and my wears was crisp
My man said there was a jam
That I should not miss
I hopped in the livery without a moment to spare
And when I rolled up on the function everybody was there
I was catching sexy stares from the shams in the rear
I saw my peers and heads I hadn't seen in years
So now I was getting caught up in the nightlife mix

(Master P)
Then I see my main man from my old time clique
Oh shit, not my nigga Mos Def in the house
Oh shit, baby paw, I ain't know you came home
We talked about that and this and way back since
When I seen a caravan sporting wild, dark tints
Had its window half cracked and they was cruising slow
And was circling the block like they was po po
Said I was jibbing with my man so I paid it no mind
That's when the shots rang out from the passenger side

(Lil`Mo
It was a .45 bark that made us all duck down
Girls was letting out screams as shells hit the ground
I was looking for my man so we both could split
That's when he turned to me and said:
"Yo, Mos, i'm hit!"
I guess the street life don't leave a nigga alone
Laced up at the party and he just came home
If he survive I know he gon' retaliate
If he don't, they bought theyself a burial plate
Either way situation status on code red
I'm on the horn to tell the fam its on like Con Ed


-CHORUS-

[Cash]
"I just came out the bing and shit is mad real
This shit ain't bout nothing"

[Ludacris]
"Son I know how you feel"

[Cash]
"My girl is in the world trying to raise my seed
There's mad shit that she want and mad shit that she need
Plus she got some nigga, knocking at her door"

[Ludacris]
"Who dis?"

[Cash]
"Some crab-ass cat that she messed with before
Always acting wild, disrespecting my G
I think he need to go, what's the verdict, DC?"

[Ludacris]
"Verdict guilty, left hand on the scene
You might be locked down but you're part of the team
If you say "He gotta go", then that's what he gotta do
Ain't nothing sweet, son, yo, you know I'm here for you"

[Cash]
"No doubt, come check me on the day of knowledge born
Cause this phone shit ain't real, yeah that tap shit be on
Plus the God wanna see you, so pull his name too
Cause he soon come home son, you know how he do"

[Ludacris]
"Yeah the God get down so I see you on the VI
I'm a do my best to get this broad to bring you some lie
Peace to the Gods, read your math, hold your head
And as far as that kid goes, remember what I said"
