Stick up kids is out to tax
Stick up kids is out to tax
Stick up kids is out to tax
And this is how the story goes

Brothers are amused by others brother's reps
But the thing they know best is where the gun is kept
'Cause in the night, you'll feel fright
And at the sight of a four-fifth, I guess you just might
Want to do a dance or two
'Cause he could maybe bust you for self or with a crew
No matter if you or your brother's a star
He could pop you and jet without a getaway car
And some might say that he's a dummy
But he's sticking you and taking all your money
It's a daily operation
He might be loose in the park or lurking at the train station
Mad brothers know his name
So he thinks he got a little fame
From the stick-up game
And while we're blaming society
He's at a party with his man
They got their eye on the gold chain
That the next man's wearing
It looks big but they ain't staring
Just thinking of a way and when to get the brother
They'll be long gone before the kid recovers
And back around the way, he'll have the chain on his neck
Claimin' respect, just to get a rep

Stick up kids is out to tax
Stick up kids is out to tax
Stick up kids is out to tax
And this is how the story goes

Ten brothers in a circle
Had the kid trapped, the one with the hood, he said, "We'll hurt you
If you don't run all you jewels and pay
Give up the Rolex watch or you won't see another day"
See, they were on the attack
And one said, "Yo, you want to make this to a homicide rap?
Make it fast so we can be on our way
Kick in the rings and everything, ok?"
The kid was nervous and flinching
And little shorty with the 3-8, yo, he was inchin'
Closer and closer, put the gun to his head
Shorty was down to catch a body instead
Money was scared so he panicked
Took off his link and his rings and ran frantic
But shorty said, "Nah" pulled the trigger and stepped
It was nothing, he did it just to get a rep

And this is how the story goes
Y así es como va la historia
Brothers are amused by others brother's reps
Los hermanos se divierten con la reputación de otros hermanos
But the thing they know best is where the gun is kept
Pero lo que mejor saben es dónde se guarda la pistola
'Cause in the night, you'll feel fright
Porque en la noche, sentirás miedo
And at the sight of a four-fifth, I guess you just might
Y a la vista de un cuatro-cinco, supongo que podrías
Want to do a dance or two
Querer hacer un baile o dos
'Cause he could maybe bust you for self or with a crew
Porque él podría tal vez atraparte por ti mismo o con una pandilla
No matter if you or your brother's a star
No importa si tú o tu hermano son una estrella
He could pop you and jet without a getaway car
Podría dispararte y huir sin un coche de escape
And some might say that he's a dummy
Y algunos podrían decir que es un tonto
But he's sticking you and taking all your money
Pero te está atracando y tomando todo tu dinero
It's a daily operation
Es una operación diaria
He might be loose in the park or lurking at the train station
Podría estar suelto en el parque o acechando en la estación de tren
Mad brothers know his name
Los hermanos locos conocen su nombre
So he thinks he got a little fame
Así que piensa que tiene un poco de fama
From the stick-up game
Del juego del atraco
And while we're blaming society
Y mientras culpamos a la sociedad
He's at a party with his man
Está en una fiesta con su hombre
They got their eye on the gold chain
Tienen su ojo en la cadena de oro
That the next man's wearing
Que el próximo hombre está usando
It looks big but they ain't staring
Parece grande pero no están mirando
Just thinking of a way and when to get the brother
Solo pensando en una forma y cuándo conseguir al hermano
They'll be long gone before the kid recovers
Se habrán ido mucho antes de que el niño se recupere
And back around the way, he'll have the chain on his neck
Y de vuelta por el camino, tendrá la cadena en su cuello
Claimin' respect, just to get a rep
Reclamando respeto, solo para obtener una reputación

Ten brothers in a circle
Diez hermanos en un círculo
Had the kid trapped, the one with the hood, he said, "We'll hurt you
Tenían al niño atrapado, el de la capucha, dijo: "Te haremos daño
If you don't run all you jewels and pay
Si no entregas todas tus joyas y pagas
Give up the Rolex watch or you won't see another day"
Entrega el reloj Rolex o no verás otro día"
See, they were on the attack
Verás, estaban en el ataque
And one said, "Yo, you want to make this to a homicide rap?
Y uno dijo: "¿Quieres convertir esto en un asesinato?
Make it fast so we can be on our way
Hazlo rápido para que podamos irnos
Kick in the rings and everything, ok?"
Entrega los anillos y todo, ¿vale?"
The kid was nervous and flinching
El niño estaba nervioso y temblaba
And little shorty with the 3-8, yo, he was inchin'
Y el pequeño Shorty con el 3-8, sí, se estaba acercando
Closer and closer, put the gun to his head
Más y más cerca, puso la pistola en su cabeza
Shorty was down to catch a body instead
Shorty estaba dispuesto a matar a alguien en su lugar
Money was scared so he panicked
El dinero tenía miedo así que entró en pánico
Took off his link and his rings and ran frantic
Se quitó su cadena y sus anillos y corrió frenético
But shorty said, "Nah" pulled the trigger and stepped
Pero Shorty dijo: "No" apretó el gatillo y se fue
It was nothing, he did it just to get a rep
No fue nada, lo hizo solo para obtener una reputación
