Lloyd Banks, Benny the Butcher - Living Proof(2022)

[00:10.33] Uh
[00:11.23] I done cracked the dial again on your meter, despite your limits
[00:13.85] If I was you, I wouldn't rap with me, either, I'm psycho with it
[00:16.71] I'm gon' knock a thirty-pack off a hater, you're lipo-kitted
[00:19.69] Unavoidable, ironic they take an L like no limit
[00:22.88] Tryna carry weight that's dead will only hold me back
[00:25.43] Sometimes you gotta have a fall out to see the truth, and you showed me that
[00:29.14] Freezing my shoulders what I'm coldest at
[00:31.33] You see the ones you shit on all on your way out, this life is a cul-de-sac
[00:34.82] No surrenders, wish I was born earlier
[00:36.99] Put me in the golden era where I can flourish
[00:39.52] Me and adversity cruise together
[00:41.54] Counted me out again? yes, who do I owe the pleasure?
[00:44.08] Thank you, him, her and whoever
[00:45.96] Banks is a wanted man, big up to my band, keep drums in public
[00:48.63] I should drop again, three sundays in June, my sons will love it
[00:51.62] Poison my food for thought, hope my critics become disgusted
[00:54.39] These scriptures are one of ones, never had a re-run to judge it
[00:57.69] When it's said and done, I'll be the only one
[01:00.20] My drive ain't fueled off love, ain't got to show me none
[01:03.03] You niggas got shit but time, just got the rollies done
[01:05.86] And we only run when the police come
[01:10.07] A hundred salute, prepare the troops (ah)
[01:12.10] I'm goin' out on my roof, ain't hear to truce (the butcher coming nigga)
[01:15.82] Don't care to make a friend, rather you hear the truth (me and my nigga Banks, ah)
[01:18.69] Real niggas always regroup, I'm living proof (you know how we do it, you know what it is, uh)
[01:21.49] I'm the East Side rider in twenty bands of designer
[01:23.87] At the fight in Brooklyn, sittin' one row behind Madonna
[01:26.73] Don't do me no favors, I'm too gangster to break a promise
[01:29.53] I ain't leave the mansion and I spent twenty at Saint Thomas, uh (twenty at Saint Thomas)
[01:32.54] Y'all naming rappers I'm better than, but that's irrelevant
[01:35.88] 'Cause I'm the elephant in the room, even around veterans
[01:38.65] You probably makin' bread, but don't know how to stack it, do you? (nah)
[01:41.69] I make fifty bands and still go home to a pack of noodles
[01:44.38] Had the best work, then got a net worth that they had to google
[01:47.13] I promise that I'll be richer by the time I run back into you, uh
[01:50.76] Beef with a rapper explain to me how, nigga (me, how?)
[01:53.50] You don't wanna see this k and me wavin' you down with it, ah
[01:56.47] My record label hate that I hang with these wild niggas
[01:58.98] Too focused for that 'cause fractions can't be allowed with us (uh-uh)
[02:01.81] I'm Pac back then, when that nigga played in juice
[02:04.67] Brought the title upstate like when Melo played in 'cuse, uh
[02:07.60] When it's said and done, I'll be the only one
[02:10.15] My drive ain't fueled off love, ain't got to show me none
[02:13.24] You niggas got shit but time, just got the rollies done
[02:15.95] And we only run when the police come
[02:19.57] A hundred salute, prepare the troops
[02:22.68] I'm goin' out on my roof, ain't hear to truce
[02:25.34] Don't care to make a friend, rather you hear the truth
[02:28.28] Real niggas always regroup, I'm living proof
[02:30.97] Uh, victory is the greatest treasure, came together
[02:34.19] Winning personified, excellence on my name, forever
[02:37.34] Money flurries became the weather, rain, whatever
[02:40.44] Count up the scars, you'll breathe hard
[02:41.68] Way too much pain to measure
[02:43.27] Long as I been climbin' for some time, my nigga
[02:45.22] Rhyme pulitzer, compliments of recent contradiction, fifteen pounds of liquor
[02:48.48] Ain't you helped me up behind the picture, snuck me time elixir
[02:50.83] Prada slippers, this shit's a breeze, let me be honest with ya
[02:54.27] Fuck you think I do this for attention never moved me none
[02:56.81] Funny how envy infiltrate circles, that's where it usually comes
[02:59.78] Niggas singin' they soul away, hate what the gangstar movies done
[03:02.53] Frontin' pics in the district, you know that ain't where your jewelry from
[03:06.17] Never been time for tentative talks
[03:07.67] Pray that my pen gives remorse
[03:09.11] Pain is my friend on this course
[03:10.70] Clones with identical flows
[03:12.04] Dense sentimental, hit harder than any physical loss
[03:14.72] Splinters from times I been crossed
[03:16.47] Imbalanced, chemicals off
[03:17.92] When it's said and done, I'll be the only one
[03:19.73] My drive ain't fueled off love, ain't got to show me none
[03:22.84] You niggas got shit but time, just got the rollies done
[03:25.73] And we only run when the police come
[03:29.29] A hundred salute, prepare the troops
[03:32.49] I'm goin' out on my roof, ain't hear to truce
[03:35.39] Don't care to make a friend, rather you hear the truth
[03:37.86] Real niggas always regroup, I'm living proof (proof)
[03:40.96]
