[Verse 1- Jadakiss]
Top of the food chain, its just the way that I do things
The dungaree seats in the blue range, I'm workin with new change
A gemini nigga with mood swings, had the fiends lookin for new things
I stop playin with birds, and started playin with words
The money wasnt right so I had to stay on the curb
And I'll be a playa later but for now call me ??? Kiss
If not that, mon take it Jada, I kick hard bars and blow hard weed
And be everywhere cuz I move at God's speed
And my aim is make ya'll bleed, ya'll got embarrassed in da class
When the teacher used to make ya'll read, uh huh, mind over matter
And that's all good, but fuck that my new shit is spine over bladder
And everybody tryna get to the top and that's all good too but right now I'm on da ladder
[Chorus x2]
Look at you then and look at you now
Dont let this cold cold world bring you down
[Verse 2 - Jadakiss]
I know your queen got her eyes on me, I got my eyes on your queen
The SMG is heinekin green, bad things you know before long
That we gon' get it on, my kit cost thirty and ten to put it on
No tints, windows clean, heavy windex, Gears on the steerin wheel
I shift her with my index real life is just in another form
Kiss of death, its about to be another storm I'm a goddamn ragin bull
Stay outta jail by just tellin myself the cage is full
Got niggas on the payroll just to squeeze, you're in no position to challenge, my expertise they get a bonus if they leave you old school
From the era of the 45 with a penny on the needle
Ball to the bosses so please dont violate or cross him
Or you'll be the corpse of the corpses
[Chorus x2]
Look at you then and look at you now
Dont let this cold cold world bring you down
[Verse 3 - Jadakiss]
Uh uh huh you know the word anger is just one letter short of the word danger
And I aint no stranger, never use a gat more than twice if you dont clean it
And never say fuck somethin if you dont mean it and when it comes to life
The root you been usin thus far aint workin right, take the scenic
Whatever faith you got, put it in a crook, wanna hide somethin from a nigga
Put it in a book, trust me this album the vapors gonna go around if you aint hot
You need paper to throw around yeah its gettin clearer everyday
When you wake up in the morning, look in the mirror and say
[Chorus x2]
Look at you then and look at you now
Dont let this cold cold world bring you down
