The Code Songtext
von B Wise

If you not with the code, you can get lost
Small set of rules, but they do the most
Boys from the area, you can get crossed
And I paid all my dues, yeah, they know the cost
If you not with the code, you can get lost

I′m on my own time, don't need your cosign
No time for your time, with the boys, then it′s show time
Yeah, pick apart the competition
Miss me with the dissing, I stay on a mission
I said pick apart the competition
Miss me with the dissing, I stay on a mission

Hey, uh
'96, Man, you know the rules


Bootstrapped, 'bout to go to war
′Round here they call it school
Man, I hate the country boy
Used to fuck around with me
′Til I left the country, now they all salute the boy
Grew big balls in an instant
Mike Tyson in my jeans, but we distant
I was knocking biggies out when they tried to run their mouth
You can meet the Lord like it was a christening

Say a prayer for the boys that ain't here

When the riots happened, brother, I was there

Redfern, Cronulla to Maxfields
If you got the text message, then you know the deal
Racial tension in the city, it was getting high
Wasn′t from the area, but we was always down to ride
2170, All the boys know the code
'Cause we live by the code

If you not with the code, you can get lost
Small set of rules, but they do the most
Boys from the area, you can get crossed
And I paid all my dues, yeah, they know the cost
If you not with the code, you can get lost
Small set of rules, but they do the most
Boys from the area, you can get crossed
And I paid all my dues, yeah, they know the cost
If you not with the code, you can get lost


I′m on my own time, don't need your cosign
No time for your time, with the boys, then it′s show time
Yeah, pick apart the competition
Miss me with the dissing, I stay on a mission
I said pick apart the competition
Miss me with the dissing, I stay on a mission

Doin' the most in my Lancer
Killing competition off like it's cancer
Call me Allen Iverson, I′m the answer
Orange Bathing Ape, I′m buzzing like Fanta
I got all the moves, I'm just like a dancer
Gimme top, ′cause I could never romance her
All I wanna see is just the dollar sign
But I chose the path rapping on the basslines

Talk about bass, I'm the man on the ground
You had a problem, call your man, I′m around
You know the Nigel boys be holding it down
It's been like that since I moved out to your town

I need the bank building up, counting digits
Just getting started, we′re nowhere near finished
Percy like Miller, we building, no limits
'Cause

If you not with the code, you can get lost
Small set of rules, but they do the most
Boys from the area, you can get crossed
And I paid all my dues, yeah, they know the cost
If you not with the code, you can get lost
Small set of rules, but they do the most
Boys from the area, you can get crossed
And I paid all my dues, yeah, they know the cost
If you not with the code, you can get lost
