what i need

(feat. Kardinal Offishall, Sly Boogy)
[Intro: Kardinal Offishall]
Yeah, uh huh uh huh
Circle (huh), uh huh uh huh
T-Dot, uh huh uh huh
Kardinal, what it is though ******z
Yo check it (what I need!)
[Verse 1: Kardinal Offishall]
What I need is for **** **z to let me live (man, chill!)
Deal with ******z who's blood spill
Empty a couple clips and they label ******z assassins
Fact , show them my life is worth more than a contract (what I need)
What I need is for chickens to stop tricking, licking the kitten
And hitting every rap ******'s hit (what I need)
What I need is for people to love one God, one hoe, one time
******, respect the rhyme (word)
Chew the way that I flex, it's next level ************t
Turn off the beats, I cross off the treble ************t
What I need is for money to match clothes
Fifty dollars a word (word), million dollars a show (show)
Billion dollars a video, ten bucks a hoe!
Billion dollars a dozen, the Circle ******z know (yeah)
One dollar per president, fifty cents a CEO
Pay back but I still retake yo (blah!)
[Chorus: Prince Paul]
We keep it hot when we up in the spot
Everytime when we on the grind
Make it happen if you calling the shots
Do you and I'm a handle mine
My 2-way and my cellular phone
Be blowing up in a rediculous way
Sipping the game like I'm slanging the zone
The Mary Jane or a nickle of lle
What I need
[Verse 2: Sly Boogy]
What I need is a first-class ticket
And a five star luxury suite so I can kick it (what I need)
What I need is a fat ass podium
And my money up front when I'm packing a coliseum (what I need)
What I need regular rotation across the nation
On every radio station
Now that you know * *****, what you gone do?
And let me know so I can put the homies on too
From day one you been jacking you jaw
Like you is a boss hog **** **, raw acting a flaw
Talking about the mad connects and you cash your checks
But I have yet to see you flex and make it manifest
Claiming you got the hooks sitting up in the cut
When it's really another mother****** plugging me up
You question my credibility and test with threats
But you better show respect when you address the vet (what I need)
What I need is for you to quit bumping your gums
And shut the ****** up and quit jumping the gun
Cause we on the same team and came for cream
And we reign supreme, swimming in the mainstream (what I need)
What I need is some peace of mind and a fine dime
With an old piece behind
Some sticky green lime and a bottle of wine
So I can glide in my ride with the seats reclined
[Chorus: Prince Paul]
[Outro: Announcer talking]

Politics of the business
