Lyrics

0:02Its hell up in harlem my main man just caught a bad one
0:04Wetted by a magnum when he didnt have none
0:07That goes to show you that even when you're respected
0:09Brothersll still try ya if they think you're butt-naked
0:11So I went uptown to get the low-down
0:14To see who made the whole thing go down
0:16Word on the streets had it
0:17Some kids from the bronx with automatics
0:19Came to start static
0:20Some new jacks at the game
0:21Tryin to get a name
0:22Had a point to prove
0:23Wrong move
0:24So I can't wait to get em all straight
0:27Its a big payback when I retaliate
0:30Steam I gotta let it off
0:32And I can't wait to set it off
0:34To revenge my main man thats gone
0:35And as sure as my name is kane word is bond
0:37The beef is on
0:37Once again its on
0:39You got beef
0:40Once again its on
0:45You got beef you better save it for the muthaf**kin meat market
0:56Its time to show them how to get hard
0:58Callin a hit squad and pull all these clowns ciddard
1:00For tryin to friddont and fiddake the middood
1:02But when I get riddude - awesome dude
1:05So I took a little trip to brooklyn
1:06Bedstuy do-or-die is where I was lookin
1:09For my boys from roosevelt albany and marcy
1:11Plus I got a posse over in canarsie
1:14I'm talkin about ill brothers that don't play
1:16They sit around watchin scarface all day
1:18So here we go headed up to they scene
1:20Twenty deep in a van like the a-team
1:23We rolled up to see what this joints about
1:25When one of my boys in the van just pointed em out
1:27So without delay we reacted
1:28And started shootin like it was target practice
1:32When they saw that we wasnt messin around
1:34One tried to run so I had to chase him down
1:36I caught the kid by the corner store deli
1:38Kicked him in the belly like I was jeff kelley
1:40I did his jugular vein something violent
1:42Came back to see my crew made the rest silent
1:45We sent fifteen bodies to trapper john
1:48Cos the beef was on
1:50Once again its on
1:51(you got beef)
1:53Once again its on
1:56You got beef you better save it for the muthaf**kin meat market
2:08(I don't happen to trust people
2:10I sort of figured if you thought I was weak
2:12You'd mop the street up with me
2:14And I got to kill a lot more of your people
2:16To put you in your place
2:23You send your boys in I send em back in a paperbag
2:26Many screamed about a homicide
2:26But when I came to shut em down all the drama died
2:30I plead insanity when I got a jam with me
2:31And we roll like the corleone family
2:34I bring the boys thatll bring the noise
2:36In the aftermath everythings destroyed
2:39Like a crew of barbarians
2:40And brothers that want beef I make em vegetarians
2:43So don't even front and try to put it as if you're ruff
2:45Cos soon as I see ya best believe ima call your bluff
2:48And everyone else that tried to press up on me tuff
2:50Have fallen and they can't get up
2:52My game is a ill one
2:53Cos I'm a real one
2:54Lorda mercy
2:55Nuff controversy
2:56A gangster a khan
2:58A pimp and a don
2:59Waitin for the beef to be on
Its hell up in harlem  my main man just caught a bad one
Wetted by a magnum when he didnt have none
That goes to show you that even when you're respected
Brothersll still try ya if they think you're butt-naked
So I went uptown to get the low-down
To see who made the whole thing go down
Word on the streets had it
Some kids from the bronx with automatics
Came to start static
Some new jacks at the game
Tryin to get a name
Had a point to prove
Wrong move
So I can't wait to get em all straight
Its a big payback when I retaliate
Steam  I gotta let it off
And I can't wait to set it off
To revenge my main man thats gone
And as sure as my name is kane  word is bond
The beef is on
Once again its on
You got beef
Once again its on
You got beef you better save it for the muthaf**kin meat market
Its time to show them how to get hard
Callin a hit squad and pull all these clowns ciddard
