Acknowledge Lyrics

Acknowledge - Masta Ace

...

"Pay homage, respect ."

Yeah, one-two

".Acknowledge the rep"

Uhnnh. I don't know what you cats was thinking

"Pay homage, respect ."

Musta been crazy

".Acknowledge the rep"

To step up on stage, at CMJ, mention my name?

I hear these cats, but I ain't listening

A little faint dissing, a little scratch, a little paint missin'

But I still gleam and glisten, hot like a stream of piss 'n

I'm about to have ya whole team wishing

That you never got this shit started

You about to be dearly departed, you gotta be nearly retarded

To let me hear my name mention, try'na gain attention

Now I'm runnin' through this game lynchin'

And I heard a few cats tryna take shots on the low

These XFL rappers tryna fuck with a real pro

One thing; who named y'all the High and the Mighty?

To me, ya'll just sound like a couple of High Whities

You had to be on mad coke and XTC

To think for a second, you can stand next to me

Look, don't ever again mention my name in ya freestyles

Or I cut off ya transmission faster than Lee Miles

And I heard ya album, this must be something you're new at

My cellphone stay ringin', like a slap in the ear

So I hope y'all don't plan on making rap a career

Cause ever since Heav' was in Vernon I been burnin'

Next year, y'all be up in Rawkus, interning

And I shoulda let it known what your government names are

To make sure you +Take It Personal+ like Gang Starr, motherfuckers

"I got one lyric, pointed at your head for start

Another one, is pointed at your weak ass heart"

And that go for any other so called rapcats, in the game

"Pay homage, respect"

"Acknowledge the rep"

"Another fake jack I slay with my spectac' rap display"

And believe me, I ain't forget about him, naw

"Pay homage, respect"

Nope. "Acknowledge the rep"

Just you wait

"Acknowledge the rep"

Yo, yeah I heard of the Boogiemann when I was a youth, scary

And I found out that he was as fake as a tooth-fairy

Since my last mission this nigga's been ass-kissing

I took a minute, I gave your single a fast listen

Tell me this, no pot to piss in? How you dissin'

You group holmes are about to report that you missing

And I don't know who was worse, the track or the verse

I'ma get to your producer, but I'm smacking you first

See I couldn't even find one nigga that heard of you

I did find a few cats that wanted to murder you

But I told 'em "Chill", I let 'em know you was my son

And I promise I can pay support to you twenty-one

Consider me the clothes on your back and a warm meal

Who knows, this might just get you a deal

And the day that your album go on sale for the first hour

Just remember like Nas nigga, +I Gave You Power

I figured I give ya some help, cause you need lots

I make your producer change his name to Speed Nottz

Tell him I say "Fuck him!" for doing the tracks

Matter of fact, fuck Fat Beats, for doing the wax

I'ma diss you via e-mail and then through a fax

I'ma diss you by two-way, I ain't gon' never relax

I'ma diss you over fast, slow track or no track

If your shit wasn't so wack, I dissed you to yo' track

You that little fish that I catch and I throw back

And by the way, give 50 Cent his flow back

You that cat in the club that get hit with a bottle

Fuckin' with me? You better off trying to hit lotto

And don't answer back, this is hard shit to follow

And you can't spit nigga, so you obviously must swollow, motherfucker
