Bully

[Intro]

Yo, check it out

What's fucked up... is I don't see either one of us budging

[Verse 1]

"I'm withholding my anger

Though I'd like to be the strangler

Of this punk ass little pussy's puny neck

It's my right to insist

That he acknowledge my existence

But he just displays complete lack of respect"

That's what he says to himself

As he use his magazines to trash me

As he sits with both his feet up at his desk

Smokes a bag of his weed

And starts imagining things

And he just can't see that he's manically depressed

And in his jealousy and envy

It just whirls him in a frenzy

As he turns on MTV and sees my face

He don't exist in this world

So he just twists and he twirls

Spirals and spins 'til he hurls himself into rage

And it's destroying him slowly

'Cause he does not even know me

Even though he sees me everywhere he goes

So he just tortures himself, he has no fortune and wealth

So he extorts someone else to get his dough

And now he's acting like a bully so he tries to push and pull me

But he knows that he can't fool me so he's mad

And he has no choice but to scream and raise his voice up at me

'Cause it annoys him to see that I ain't scared

[Hook]

You ain't no motherfucking (bully)

And I ain't bowing to no motherfucking (bully)

I won't allow it, ain't gon' cower to no (bully)

I'll be damned if I don't stand up to a (bully)

Fight like a man and throw my hands up to a (bully...)

And I know it must be fucking with you emotionall(y...)

[Verse 2]

Now I'm not trying to make no more enemies, no more unfortunately

There's so many other motherfuckers that just are

They just keep hounding at me

Now that I'm down with 50

Suddenly now I got beef with this faggot Ja

But his ass is such a puppet, Irv could shove his whole hand up it

And just make him say what he wants him to say

But Suge has Irv's on a string and Irv's so nervous that he

Says anything to this man to keep him at bay

So now Ja thinks that he's so tough and Murder Inc.'s the big bad wolf

And they go huff and puff and blow our label down

But our building's made out of bricks so you ain't taking out shit

And dog you just did a song with Bobby Brown

So now you try to pull the race card and it backfires in your face hard

'Cause you know we don't play that black and white shit

Plus this stylist that you fucked when you was ecstasied up

Was just a man who's dressed up as a white bitch

[Hook]

You ain't no motherfucking (bully)

And I ain't bowing to no motherfucking (bully)

I won't allow it, ain't gon' cower to no (bully)

I'll be damned if I don't stand up to a (bully)

Fight like a man and throw my hands up to a (bully...)

You must be taking too much (E...)

[Verse 3]

Now what bothers me the most about hip-hop is we so close

To picking up where we left off with Big and Pac

We just lost Jam Master J, Big L got blasted away

Plus we lost Bugz, Slang Ton, and Freaky Tah

It's like a never-ending cycle that just seems to come full circle

Everybody's gotta be so fucking hard

And I'm not excluding myself 'cause I been stupid as well

I been known to lose it when someone says something smart

But as we grow as men, we learn to let shit go, but then again

There's only so much bullshit we can really stand

We all got reps to uphold when someone steps on our toes

It's no exception, it goes for every man

But if Irv really gave a fuck about Ja like he claims he does

He'd wake him up and make his boy get off them drugs

But he just keeps feeding him pills so if that E doesn't kill him

Someone from G-Unit will and I ain't buzzed

Dawg, I'm talking to you straight if the situation escalates

Any worse, we're gon' lose another soldier to this game

And if I get killed for this rap I got a million in cash

That says I will get you back in Hailie's name

[Hook]

You ain't no motherfucking (bully)

And I ain't bowing to no motherfucking (bully)

I won't allow it, ain't gon' cower to no (bully)

I'll be damned if I don't stand up to a (bully)

Fight like a man and throw my hands up to a (bully...)

Irvine, get your boy off that (E...)

[Outro]

Get at me, dog
