Basquiat (feat. Fat Joe & Smoke Dza)

Yeah (Statik Selektah)
That's the, that's the shit
Let me hear my voice a little bit loud on the thing, yo
D.I.T.C in this bitch, Coca
Talk about your faults, yeah, uh

This is bad intentions, I'm pullin' up if I'm in your mentions
You wan' rump, I gives it up and stomp you senseless
Joey Crack, place your hand on the holy MAC
Only facts is given for niggas maxin' in prisons
I move dope, that white, call it Aryan eights
You know, time is money and I'm very impatient
I could tell you 'bout the walls that be movin' and shit

Sealed up the sheet rock, all the proof in the piff
You want static but less automatic, it's the young Prodigy
Show you 40 sides of Joe when bringing havoc
You want bars, well, it's truly nothin'
I break a leg every time I tear it down, no Boogie Cousins

I'll be swimmin' with the dolphins when I'm back in the crib
Shit, I should bring a coffin every time that I spit
I burn it down like Notre Dame anytime, no flow's the same
TrillStatik is Illmatic, the hall of fame (the hall of fame)

Call it Basquiat (Basquiat)

Keep Nip in your heart, he's a Basquiat, uh (Basquiat)

My mind scribblin' thoughts is invisible art
Fuck the political talk, I been sippin' on Bach
Bless the room way before my stoney spiritual starts
As I kick it with y'all, my phone ringin', got a lick from my dawg
These niggas cappin', that's a different facade
Shit, my livin' is art, this Sour Diesel is my business card
Hit the mountains, took a hunnid to chill
You can't trick us neither, we know all the numbers for real
Indie nigga like fuck a deal, I pay mines and my mother bills

That privilege alone is worth a hunnid mill (really)
Street nigga gettin' a lil' money still
Gotta watch out for the Fredos and the Henry Hills (right)
They'll never survive in the yard
They'll be finished way before I stuff this bud in the 'gar
Keep a holster, he can stomach the charge
Extra ounces in every pound, shit, that's the grower's regard
Yeah

Call it Basquiat (Basquiat)

Hol' up, I got an ounce sittin' in front of me
I'm about to sit back, relax and roll a blunt or three
And then a joint or two, and when I'm finished, I'ma point at you
With bud that's only smoked by an anointed few
You inhale the sensimilla then you feel a
Little bit triller, pass the tequila
You take a couple shots, then a couple totes
Then we go hit a couple spots and see a couple folks

Now some of them are connected
So be careful what you say so they don't feel disrespected
Every now and then, some shit is gonna get hectic
But you rollin' with me, the OG, you protected
The streets infected with haters and hoes
Gotta keep your eyes open, man, and stay on your toes
But don't worry 'cause you couldn't be rollin' with a triller crew
Now could you pass me the Gorilla Glue?

Call it Basquiat (Basquiat)
When you beat all the odds, call it Basquiat (Basquiat)
