Raekwon, Cormega - Honorable lyrics

(Mega, Mega what up?)
Ayo, the library of slangs -
Dutches up in Ukraine
Political prisoner, check the chain
Out the country with my dame
Televised gangsters, see me up close
Nothing's changed
Gettin' top on top, bags and duffels
I need the long Glock
You stupid? Don't play me
See 'em in drugs spots, plainclothes
All in shock
Dick out, can't even explain me
I live for the moment, give to the homeless
$20, 000 TECs, cribs is a bonus
You fuckin' with them niggas
Who bust straight
Menace to society drinkin' juice
In the hood, waitin'
Paper made me do it, your body we'll snatch
It's like a London flick against the Japs
Sittin' at the dice table, handlin'
Man to man
One-on-one, a hundred grand and your son

In life we're faced with obstacles
We want to achieve dreams
That might seem impossible
The odds don't lie
Look at mine - acknowledge truth
The streets raised me to
Be wise and honorable wise and honorable
The streets raise me to be wise and honorable
Wise and honorable the streets raised me to
Be wise and honorable

Beef and money don't mix, invest in peace
I've paid dues in the street
Respect is my receipt
Truth will set you free, except with police
Be aware when you sleep or
You could rest in peace
I elevate poetically, I'm incredibly deep
Never ball 'til you fall
Capisce? Stay on your feet
If you were anxiously waitin' for me
And Rae on the beat
Be gracious, understand patience is key
I once needed direction now
I'm facin' the East
To give praise like Mohammed
Indeed Allah opened my eyes
I'm watchin' my surroundings
Sharks and piranhas survive in
The warmest waters mama Sana won't allow me
To acknowledge doubters
Couldn't conceive I was built to prosper
Since a teen wearin' diamond
Jewelry in the projects if you get knocked
Housing's gonna seize your apartment

In life we're faced with obstacles
We want to achieve dreams
That might seem impossible
The odds don't lie
Look at mine - acknowledge truth
The streets raised me to
Be wise and honorable wise and honorable
The streets raise me to be wise and honorable
Wise and honorable the streets raised me to
Be wise and honorable
