hey yo this is the way we lay it down, on the L train

yo help me out now, yo yo



Hey yo, Black I need help

I mean immediately and right away

every single day I swear I'm gonna find a better way

my enemies are testing me

dissing me and grilling me

yesterday they cornered me and beat me down repeatedly



imagine me now its like I'm Mr. Negativity

its hard when you're packing

devils start attacking

I got no time for running

no time for hiding

now I got my crew and we about to get violent



so clear the streets

shake the cops

lets go get these punks

are you all down?

yo nobody better front

Sometimes I am a player

sometimes I am a pawn

No energy to run

but I gotta carry on



I resurrect myself

Lazarus he was a man who died

through the power of faith became alive

open up your eyes and spy Lazarus

better yet open up your heart imagine this



Riding on the train

Riding on the L train

I don't got no problems no more no more no

Riding on the train

Cruising on the L train

I will reach my destination for sure I know



Yo Black help me out

I mean immediately and right away

Meager is my property [?] and I don't got a hideaway

My enemies will badger me

track me down and capture me

yesterday they cornered me and beat me down relentlessly

Imagine me they used to call me Mr. Positivity

Hard when your slacking

Devils are attacking

I get no satisfaction

I get no gratification

In it for my self

(?)

I put my mind to my microphone

to your ear drum

listen close 'cause here it come

Sometimes I am a player

Sometimes I am a pawn

No energy to run still I gots to carry on



I resurrect my self

Lazarus he was a man who died

through the power of faith became alive

open up your eyes and spy Lazarus

better yet open up your heart y'all imagine this



Riding on the train

Riding on the L train

I don't got no problems no more no more no

Riding on the train

Cruising on the L train

I will reach my destination for sure I know



now check it out

to the bright and early morn'

we keep it on

nobody can ever know the patterns that we hold

sometimes we are the players

sometimes we are the pawn

we always carry on

we gotta carry on



to the bright and early morn'

we keep it on

nobody can ever know the patterns that we hold

sometimes we are the players

sometimes we are the pawn

we always carry on

we gotta carry on



Riding on the train (on the train)

Riding on the L train (on the L train)

I don't got no problems no more no more no

Riding on the train (on the train)

Cruising on the L train

I will reach my destination for sure I know
