Mobb Deep - What Can I Do? Lyrics

[Havoc]
Yeah... uh-huh ("What can I do?")
Yeah yeah... (What's goin on man?)
(The f*ck is goin on man?)
Yo ("What can I do?")

To make that paper was the trait that I received at birth
Niggaz jealous and hatin on me ("What can I do?")
When they plottin and schemin on me, the hammer just keep it on me
F*ck the fame and glory ("What can I do?")
When your shorty gets nasty and horny, she all over me kid
You locked down, doin a bid ("What can I do?")
With a nigga, tryin to take food off of my plate
And you know I got a kid ("What can I do?")
When my stomach touchin, ribs showin
You off in the corner glowin ("What can I do?")
Nothin else, but to take what's yours, convert it to mines
From the cash to the shine ("What can I do?")
When shit is so f*cked up, can't tell wrong from right
Right from wrong ("What can I do?")
When they say, life is short, to you it's the cash
Todday it's seemin long ("What can I do?")
Now I try to keep a positive look, my motto to jux
But can't seem to stay focused ("What can I do?")
They say, an unoccupied mind's the devil's playground
So I sat and wrote this, to kill time ("What can I do?")

[Prodigy]
Yeah yeah that's that gangsta shit son
I feel you my nigga.. (that's right that's right) ("What can I do?")
(Infamous baby you ain't know?) We gon' do it like this
(That Mobb shit nigga) ("What can I do?")

But send niggaz to hell
They try and stop me from cashin in man ("What can I do?")
But squeeze without thinkin, flip without warnin
I got the drop on 'em ("What can I do?")
You know, give it my best, empty this clip
And if live and happen to snitch ("What can I do?")
Except, find his home, bring it to his family
Should I shoot his moms? ("What can I do?")
F*ck it, send him a warnin, lick that bitch
Let him know the shit is on ("What can I do?")
It's not my fault, it's just the game we in
And when you violate codes ("What can I do?")
But punish niggaz for they actions
My shit jam when I start blastin, no ("What can I do?")
Just relax, take out the clip, fix that shit
Put the clip back and keep goin ("What can I do?")
Man you gotta keep your thug showin
People take kindness for weakness and so ("What can I do?")
But be a cold-hearted bastard
This world is f*cked up, and that's how it go ("What can I do?")

(F*ck that son, Infamous nigga) ("What can I do?")
(For two-thousands baby, y'all niggaz got your own) ("What can I do?")
(Your little run, your little five year run ten year run)
(Y'all niggaz small time baby) ("What can I do?")
(Small time baby, beneath us baby)

("What can I do?") ("What can I do?") ("What can I do?") [echoes]
