Lyrics

[Verse 1: Mystic] I was just sixteen when I stepped on the scene / as a microphone fiend/my eyes fullof dreams / I'm a highschool drop out with a B-Girl masters / thought the_point_of_the craft was_to plaster the_masses / with classics well-written like fables and tragedies / y'all know the style embrace the mind gradually / my philosophy is that it's hard to lie / the soul gets tattered and torn so we begin to die / man, honesty is golden / maybe that's the way the truth got stolen? / would never claim to be a saint / peep the pictures I paint / the joy came from the pain / the sun from the rain / for those who broke me down / and fed me false / the whole world knows now I was found from lost / so I walk the talk / what you see is what you get / with 4th Avenue Jones' but it ain't hit you yet [Chorus] Don't talk no more / ask how I'm doing keep it moving say I'm fine / We Don't talk no more / my time costs money cause my money is my time / Don't talk no more / see me with my crew and Avenue we on the grind / We Don't talk no more / don't talk [Verse 2: Tena Jones] Tena Jones wasn't fake and I stayed / takin' it day by day with these raps now I'm makin' 'em pay / shape poetry like bakin' some clay / took a while to hit/ now constantly we get radio play / they didn't think I had the heart to flow / dun' grew up, the first girl blew up out of Arkansas / Little Rock dirty south pride / getting love whether on the East End or the South Side / They say money make the world go round / and rap cats with stacks of money make some girls go down / Tell your daughter she's a queen Miss / to me it's clear she has no idea what self esteem is / I don't stop when brotha's yellin' come here / I can't holla / keep a real tight circle / squares I can't follow / Tena stay hungry with mines like Rottweilers / y'all girl's silly sayin' you dimes, I'm 'bout dollars [Chorus] Don't talk no more / ask how I'm doing keep it moving say I'm fine / We don't talk no more / my time costs money cause my money is time / Don't talk no more / see me with my crew, the Avenue be on the grind / We don't talk no more / don't talk [Verse 3: Ahmad Jones] Since I graduated high school in '93 dun' made a real good livin' off these rap songs / at 27 I'm washed up? / That's funny to me cause I ain't been livin' that long / so fresh and we clean / perhaps like them ATLien cats/ the 4th Ave / Will Score like my Fugee fam'/ and make a hundred million dollars off our Vocab M-O-D I'm a C-E-O / money folder / committed to dispellin' a myth them haters told ya / must be off that 'bama weed / give up the doja' / How can I be a casualty? / I'm still a solider! / The J-O-N-E-S has more or less dun' answered every doubters question with a yes / the Lord has blessed us / And I've babbled on in songs too long / to see my momma in that Avalon she owns / she need a Lexus / so I be choppin' up these beats in my MP / and moppin' up that money / haters see us poppin' up on T.V. / You think Ahmad's invisible / keep searchin' / cause you don��t be workin' hard enough at this to ever see me! [Chorus] Don't talk no more / ask how I'm doing keep it moving say I'm fine / We don't talk no more / my time costs money cause my money is time / Don't talk no more / see me with my crew, the Avenue be on the grind / We don't talk no more / don't talk [Bridge: Nene White] Don't talk no more / let me make it plain / I'm in it to win it/ no it ain't a game / you can take the fame/ But don't talk no more / cat got my tongue / in the fast lane gotta run / can't stay broke cause I'm not the one / Don't talk no more
