Verse one:
 
 {lil' ya}
 
  
  Regional manuel aka tec-9 stay strap keep a blunt
 
 Don't give a fuck about one time(ha) jumped six
 
 But now he's out gettin' paid(ha) yella's doin' the bow
 
 So is tec and the lil' ya damn it must be a dream
 
 I'm a born entertainer he's a lyrical fiend
 
 Three black brother's love each other keep a fat check
 
 Ain't a nigga in the city who can fuck with tec boy
 
 Went from quicker to key's left it all alone
 
 Gettin' paid legal got the bitches all on his bone
 
 Give him credit because he's all that
 
 But I got love and respect me for my nigga tec

 Much respect for my nigga tec fool

 Much respect for my nigga tec

 Much respect for my nigga tec
