Penny Jerseys Lyrics - Artist : Pete Rock
Brooklyn kids get biz
Shit, you know how it is Yeah, my whole block was in Penny jerseys Real shit, yeah My whole block was in Penny jerseys Let's take it there, uh Brooklyn kids get biz and business forever flowing like Get it how you know it like, it all becomes so alike Being what you see till they put the D's in the open right? It always seems to get brightest under the lowest lights We was tryna see what they try and keep out the open right? Motivated off being the 'need a motive' type Know the shit that's waiting is giving way To handing out dinner plates, and camping out sending strays The balance of bigger names, my pop's name did it all He said when a winner falls, don't think he ain't win at all Just think what that winning costs, and fuck tryna get a draw Leroy Campbell shopping, he said it while getting art Grew up where the walls was like a gallery The park was like a canopy And being under both is what provoke what all the balance be Seeing where the dope can help you go is what emphatically Kept me off the stoop more, truly yours Then I threw my Penny's on, and my block hit a pause Like, "Skyler them shits is hard" Then my block hit applause 'Cause I had the jersey with em, and it had just hit the stores And my shit was low key, I was just living God God help us to see what the park dealt us Nothing repeated ever Except when custies was eating better, they'd eat whatever I was running JV point, getting my three together Wrong time to be seeing better It seemed to get us Back when Illmatic was jumping up out a Rover Double parked on Waverly, it started to relate to me Drawn like it was made for me, corner store drapery But my handle was still there faithfully When son was saying that he hold a Mack 11 And attacking a reverend It felt God sent, so we wasn't asking no questions In front of the park bench where we saw the manic depressives That could make the floors lift when they got a pack of the essence Thinking regardless, if we know that that's what's expected Then we was all in to see what's in back of the dresser My peoples had older brothers to give them access I was older brother in my crib, dough in the mattress Still on my Penny shit though, talking through any zip code Corner 3 like a demo, 'fore the semi's would hit though I had the black away one and I had the USA one I wore em once a week and it felt like how Nas tape run Henny was in the freezer, we caught a splash Bitches would beep us and we'd be like where these quarters at to call em back Moms told me do what you do, but don't be rawing that I used to try and rip by the stoop but shorties was off of that I can bird box from the stoop to where the corner at And every hood feels like a loop if you embark from that Went to lunch with Penny and told him 'bout every part of that We ordered the same plates and then traded autographs 'Cause son, my whole block was in Penny jerseys I wore mine and it felt like the whole city heard me Son, my whole block was in Penny jerseys I wore mine and it felt like the whole city heard me Son, my whole block was in Penny jerseys I wore mine and it felt like the whole city heard me Son, my whole block was in Penny jerseys I wore mine and it felt like the whole city heard me |
