B.i. Vs. Friendship Lyrics - Gangstarr

*GangStarr's "Who's Gonna Take the Weight?" plays in the background* 

It's like, a friendship, and a business partnership 

And, we have to always be concious of the difference 

between em; because y'know, some things can happen 

that'll ruin one or the other, so 

we alwa-we always stay concious of those things 

Those obstacles that can, y'know trip us up 

because we ain't trying to go out like that 

*Primo scratching fades in gradually* 

"friends" "business" (repeat 3X) 

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHRAHHAHHH!!! 

C'mon! Motherf**ker! Yeah! ... 

GangStarr! GangStarr! M.O.P. 

Ghetto people!

Son you're supposed to be my man, but you ain't wise enough to realize 

this is B.I., see I wanna taste the whole cake 

Some things in this industry, sh*t be so fake 

Make no mistake, if you're my man you'd understand 

about the plan, to stack hundreds of grands (That's right!) 

And how to stand, on much more acres of land 

And to expand from the days of goin hand to hand 

So like I was CEO I do my thing son 

and turn this underground rap thing to my kingdom 

Release a fistful, of rhymes for the fiscal year 

MC's are wishful f**kin with this here 

They stuck with the tear, for fear they foresake a brother's love 

it's clear -- I'd have to be the better man I'm thinkin 

The 7th Letter Man ain't got no time for petty speakin (uhh) 

So we go our seperate ways I see the fork in the road 

I know I blessed you with a portion of gold 

and some good fortune to hold, so KEEP THAT 

while I keep it movin, just like truckloads 

of interstate cargo, taxin niggaz like U.S. embargoes 

You my man like I said so all the best 

You shoulda known we do sh*t differently than all of the rest 

Can't afford to let a link be, loose in the chain 

It's time for us to get mad more, juice in the game 

You're buggin son (that's right) that's word to Billy and Fame 

So I'ma stay the game, that we play to win (Yeah!) 

So I don't care what you say to her or say to him 

The object son, is to excel and lead 

And niggaz be bluffin fallin for nothin but greed 

M.O.P. and Guru 

If it's animosity 

Let me know 

If you plottin to stop my dough 

Time to go! 

GangStarr, M.O.P. nigga 

Tryin to blow! 

If you my man you could understand! 

*repeat 2X* 

I'm true to myself y'all, and I'm a down as* nigga! 

So don't fool yourself, clown as* nigga! 

I always been the type of cat that'll put it on ya 

since back in the days when Laze snatched me off the corner 

And every since then, the whole game changed 

Everybody's against, Lil' as* Fame 

They wanna see me stretched out with my back smokin 

Left for dead in the street with my back opened 

So I don't keep friends I just roll with 

niggaz I was RAISED WITH, went out in a BLAZE WITH 

In the penile, to B.ville, down to Grayson 

And we thick together, in these last days kid 

So I don't have what you call friends 

cause when it's on then they gone in the end! 

But I'ma handle my business indeed 

Cause niggaz be bluffin fallin for nothin but greed! 

Hey yo what happened to the love soldier? It never crossed my mind 

that you would doubt my love inside and test my pride 

I divide, anything that I got 

with my M.O.P. staff -- WE ALL AND WE OUT! 

To the First Family loyalty, is no game 

We them type of niggaz that, money won't change 

We all aim, for the big picture 

but to me it don't mean sh*t if your dogs ain't witcha 

I sacrifice my main arteries -- WHY NIGGA?! 

Ain't nobody never loved me, like my niggaz 

See my business is my friendship and my friendship is my business 

Can I get a witness?! (Preach on nigga!) 

Hey yo we went through all out wars, half-assed tours 

Travelled 'cross this land with heavy contraband 

(See you my man!) And you ain't never got to 

second guess or question the love of William Danze (Sho' nuff!) 

I am invaluable, to my niggaz 

cause they all rest there in thirty-two -- BETTER THAN NOTHIN! 

Think of William when they start bustin, I hold you down 

(When them body parts pop up cousin) I'll be around! 

"friends" "business" (repeat 6X to fade)
