Smif-N-Wessun - "Nothing Move But the Money" [Emcee(s): Steele and Tek] [Producer(s): Da Beatminerz] [Sample 1 (Multiple Elements): Heatwave - "The Star of a Story" (1:39)] [Sample 2 (Drums): Mighty Tom Cats - "Love Potion-Cheeba-Cheeba" (0:00)] [Verse 1: Steele and Tek] Let's get it on Stick 'em up. Word is bond. From what we've learned Smif-N-Wessun is sworn to take what we've earned From day one, me and my son, my son and me, we stick Together like family, so don't challenge we Right now, it's all about the currency, and I'm Representing the 211 with my new gun So who's funny with money that's mine or yours Or have a lot on his mind and even more in his drawers? No losses Get took by these two crooks from Crooklyn—that's My word—so if you're looking for a herb, keep looking. Yeah 'Cause we be looking too. Mr. Rippa, what you wanna do? On the creep, catch a crew that's sleep, get 'em For the cash—don't forget the stash that's hidden No time to waste, slip up, soft forbidden 'Cause this here is where we remain as pioneers Nothing to fear while we smell dough in the air [Hook: Steele and Tek] It's all about The cash. Still, don't nothing move but the money. It's all about The cash. Still, don't nothing move but the money. It's all about The cash. Still, don't nothing move but the money. It's all about The cash. Still, don't nothing move but the money [Verse 2: Steele, Tek, and Smif-N-Wessun] Mr. Rippa I think it's that time again. Shit, it's Forever on, so never will the drama end. You know I'm ready, son, so whichever ones come first It really don't matter 'cause they're all getting worse. No doubt This is what we're talking about. You better Hope you're not the next stop on our paper route. We don't Care. Throw your hands way in the air If you're right here, this might happen to be your nightmare, yo But everything's real in the core of the streets, where you do Go to war but you don't go to sleep. Don't peep 'Cause I got you covered, and I'll advise you Don't try to run 'cause I might surprise you The eyes do see a lot, we be on-point To the point 'cause some gods try to blow spots, but My joint keeps me easy, gentle Squeezes to release is what please me Kush and pain to maintain a solid frame, gotta Stay a step ahead of any changes in the game Criminal-minded, search and you'll find it We do our own thing 'cause society's blinded But I'm reminded that it's time to get paid 'Cause move-fakers fall in the grave that they made Who's safe from the neighborhood troublemakers? Staying high constantly on a search to get the papers [Hook: Tek and Steele] It's all about The cash. Still, don't nothing move but the money. It's all about The cash. Still, don't nothing move but the money. It's all about The paper. Still, don't nothing move but the money. It's all about The cash. Still, don't nothing move but the dough. It's all about The paper. Still, don't nothing move but the money, kid. It's all about The cash. Still, don't nothing move but the dough. It's all about The paper. Still, don't nothing move but the money, kid. It's all about The cash. Still, don't nothing move but the dough [Verse 3: Tek, Steele, and Smif-N-Wessun] Day turns to night as the crooks hit the pavement When the chrome's to your dome, we got you under enslavement Payment comes when I run up on your corner Before I warned ya, since I got the drop on you now, you's a goner Don't nothing move but the cash, aight? Don't play Fast—you might find that ass leaving in a bag tonight I'll beat 'em from the feet-up, plus my trigger finger's itchy Ready to get shifty when my pockets feeling empty Since we on a mission to get dough Move incognito to avoid any Five-O How low can we go? I know. Tell em' Timberland tree kicking in your cerebellum First, we smoke up the sensi Get irie, then get down and dirty Bucktown develops as we represent All the crooks that's stressed across the East and the West. Doing dirt Ain't nothing new to the crooks from the streets. Stepping to Our business just to make ends meet Bootcamp Clik putting shit under smash! You know the rules: don't nothing move but the cash [Hook: Steele and Tek] Still, don't nothing move but the money. It's all about The cash. Still, don't nothing move but the dough. It's all about The cash. Still, don't nothing move but the money. It's all about The cash. Still, don't nothing move but the dough. It's all about The cash. Still, don't nothing move but the money, kid. It's all about The cash. Still, don't nothing move but the dough. It's all about The cash. Still, don't nothing move but the money, kid. It's all about The cash. Still, don't nothing move but the dough [Outro: Tek] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! One time for your mind. To all the original crooks and the heads. Boot Camp Clik coming through
