Telling It How It Is lyrics

[Verse 1]
What's up ya'll my name is Esham Smith
The chosen one with the giving gift
Of speech to teach and just flow like fluid
I pray to God to make sho' I can do it
n*ggas spitting venom, jealous talking sh*t
But those who oppose can suck my di*k
I'm not in it to win it, I'm in it to clock duckets
Jump on the stage, grab my di*k and say "f*ck it!"
My brother named James is a hardcore n*gga
Got the Mini-14 with a squeaky trigger
We're coming out hardcore, give you what you came for
We're just some n*ggas that opened up Hell's Doors
Esham is here and I came to tell you
My sh*t's so dope it's drug paraphernalia
I hate to be the one to tell them you ain't sh*t
But if there's any questions asked I'll be telling it
f*ck it I'm running a play like a marathon
I'll grab the mic and begin to carry on
I'm the E to the S to the H to the A to the M
And I'm him, so don't ever try to down me
My shadow it darkens your doorstep so be warned
The Devil's been inside me ever since I was born
This is your first and last warning
You better pray to God you'll be alive in the morning
[Verse 2]
I'm cooler than the ice on the ground in the winter
When I grab that mic I am finna'
Kick a rhyme in your face, back to back with the bass
Then all the hoes will know Esham's in the place
I'm slicker and quicker, see I don't drink liquor
Wine is fine, but it's about that time
For me to jump up and say my name again
See I don't stop rappin' 'til the party ends
All ya'll silly hoes chasin' Trues and Vogues
But you always see E in new jewels and clothes
Never thought I would get it, now I got it now you want it
I'm going to use and abuse it, so I might as well flaunt it
I'm going to shake my thing, bust a rap, don't sing
See my name ain't Elvis but I'm the king
Not the same old gimmick, not the same old game
If you don't nod your head then I'm to blame
But I guess I got to go until the next intro
But remember Esham's dope, ho
