[Intro]
You know what this sh** means man (what?)
You know what this means for M.O.P. sh** to pop?
You know what it means for Brooklyn?
For New York? For the f**in streets?
For n***as that ain't got nothin
From sh** to sugar! My n***a
No compromise (at all) no changin (nope never)
M.O.P. is the streets - we ARE Brooklyn! (Salute)
Bushwick, Bed-Stuy, Crown Heights, East New York
Of course the 'Ville, Coney Island, Red Hook
All downtown Brooklyn man, it's G's around here
[Hook: repeat 2X]
Brooklyn! (Go 'head now) {C'MON NOW!}
Brooklyn, Brooklyn, Brooklyn, Brooklyn
Brooklyyyyyyyn! (Go 'head now) {C'MON NOW!}
Brooklyn, Brooklyn, Brooklyn, Brooklyn
[Billy Danze]
Geah! Since these n***as don't take the day off
Your bullsh** may not pay off
I'mma give you a guide on when you can ride
And which blocks you should stay off
Which projects you should go around
With or without a pound
(If these n***as catch you on they grounds)
They gon' lay yo' a** down
Now I ain't tryin to play you like a pawn and choose your every move
(We ain't sayin you a b**h either) but dude let's keep it cool
Keep your heater, it's nippy out, even when you see the sun
Don't be flashin your ones, bumpin your gums or fixin your gun
In East New York (East New York n***a) them n***as keep it rockin
Them Coney Island n***as is wild, they smile when they be poppin
My God, them Fort Greene n***as is beyond hard
They brick, I mean they sick, and they roll thick
Man there's blocks in Crown Heights, that ain't even got lights
It's dark, AND YOU DON'T WANNA GET CAUGHT UP IN ALBANY PARK NOW DO YA?
There's sparks down on Nostrand, there's sparks down on Kingston
Come anywhere near the 'Ville, I don't know what the f** you thinkin
This is
[Hook]
[Lil' Fame]
n***a just co*k the burner, n***a just pop the burner
n***a got ROCKED with the burner, it's a dirty game of murder
Get caught up at the ropes - n***a it's over
You a lucky n***a if yo' a**, ever even get a chance, to come out a coma
A lot of my dawgs around here, got a college education
And, they ain't get it from Penn State (NOPE) they got it from the state pen
It's veterans to rookies, n***as that pop off, and n***as that's p**y
But believe me dawg it ring off 'round here
Now I'm from (BROOKLYN) and I'm soldier, I'm sinister
Every day of my life is a like a movie Marxmen cinema
I'm from where them n***as be squeezin, where your man got k**ed at
Back in the day cause he ain't wanna come the f** up off the cheapskate
And I know it ain't sh** out here, but believe me I'm still out here
Man the n***as done seen me and asked what the f** I'm doin out here
I'm live from the borough of B-Rrah-O, O-KAYYYY
L-Y-N, I'm an N-Y-G from N.Y.C., that's
[Hook]
[Outro: Lil' Fame]
Yeah n***a, Brownsville up in this motherf**in b**h!

Mo' Peez up in this motherf**er
Ready to go right upside yo'... n***a!
That's how the f** we do it n***a
BROOKLYN! Stand the f** up in this one n***a
Yeah, Fizzy Wo'!
Mo' Peez in here, SALUTE!
