Lyrics

I want everyone to put, put their two fingers in the air right now
This a joint with Mos Def and Freeway, it's called "Two Words"
We in the streets, playa, get ya mail (Hold your hands up high)
It's only two places you end up, either dead or in jail
Still nowhere to go (Ooh-ooh), still nowhere to go (Ooh-ooh)

Now throw ya hands up, hustlers, busters, boosters, hoes
Everybody, f**k that
Say "Hell yeah, hell yeah, hell yeah, hell–"

Ay, yo, two words, Chi-town, South Side, worldwide
'Cause I, rep that, 'til I f**kin' die
One neck two chains, one waist two gats
One wall twenty plaques, dues paid, gimme that
I am limelight, Blueprint five mics
Go Getters rhyme like, should've been signed twice
Most imitated, Grammy nominated
Hotel accommodated, cheerleader prom-dated
Barbershop playa-hated, mom-and-pop bootlegged it
Felt like it rained 'til the roof caved in
Two words, Chi-town raised me crazy
So I live by two words: "f**k you, pay me"
Screamin', "Jesus, save me"
You know how the game be, I can't let 'em change me
Cause on judgment day, you gon' blame me
Look, God, it's the same me
And I basically know now, we get racially profiled
'Cuffed up and hosed down, pimped up and ho'd down
Plus I got a whole city to hold down
From the bottom so the top's the only place to go now
