[Man 1]

[Man 2]
Can't wait to make my trip outta town, son

[Man 1]

[Man 2]
Serious baby, we gon' do it, son
All them bitches, twistin' that tower, word

[Announcer]
Attention all passengers. This is the last call of the bus leaving to Northward Virginia, arriving in 10 minutes, leaving from gate G13, that's gate G13, to Northward Virginia

[Spliff Star & Men]
Ayo, ayo, here's y'all niggas tickets, man (Aight)
Bus leavin' right now (No doubt)
Ayo, listen to me, man, when y'all get on the bus, y'all niggas don't even sit together
Act like y'all don't know each other, like you're undercover on the motherfuckin' bus (Yeah) or somethin', know what I mean? (No doubt)
When y'all get there, an' all, fucker, y'all gon' hit the terminal, kna'imean, my nigga Ty gon' pick y'all up, know what I'm sayin'?
Take y'all to this hustlin' spot we got out there, Newton Park out on Norfolk, you know what I mean?
(Most def', most def')
Where the money is proper, the hustle is proper, you know what I mean?
(Uh-huh, straight gangsta)
Want you to go out there, y'all handle your business, man, you know what I'm sayin'?
(Alright)
Straight like that, aight?
(No doubt baby)
One love, man
(Peace)
[Man 1]
One, baby

[Busta Rhymes]
Okay

[Man 1]
Get up with you, man

[Man 2]
I'll miss you, get out

[Busta Rhymes]
Call me, call me

[Part 2: A Trip Out of Town]

[Verse 1]
Yo, it all began like, bust it
My nigga City 'bout to bounce on a trip
We met some niggas with a lot of things they wanted to flip
I told my nigga get the dough and keep the blau on your hip
Travel safe, you know that I'ma hold it down on the strip

Good lookin', word to mother son I give you my wid
But when I get back, I'ma bounce straight to your crib
On the strength, son slid and took it to the Greyhound
Wit' a burner in the knapsack, headed straight outta town
Now, three days pass I'm still on the strip
Doin' hand to hand with twelve capsule, stash-able clips
With little magnets on the side of the clips we planted like a project
When police come we stick the clips in any metal object
(Hey, freeze! Don't move! What you doin' up out here?)
Throwin' a nigga on the walls and try to search me down
(Show me some ID)
I laugh knowin' that my stash'll never be found
Well anyway, on the third day, son came straight to the strip
Wit' a new floss and shiny shoes on the whip
My nigga hit me with the latest, greatest
He told me get inside the whip so I can know just what the up to date is
He said he fuckin' wit' some Guyanese niggas, how ill them niggas is
What kind of dough they get, and how they handle they biz
How they connect with Jamaician niggas who speak American
And how they changed from medallions to iced out pelicans
And how they stay wit' four pounders
And speak American to try to blend in
Like they ain't obvious out of towners
Okay, I've never heard of workers gettin' five G's pay
For trips that last for only 2-3 day
How his Guyanese niggas be eatin' pasta but they love zucchini
Rockin' valor tennis suits by Sergio Tecchini
Them type of cats that call you because you can't call 'em
Rockin' baseball fitters with wild animal skins on 'em
How they rock silks and tailor made pants
And get a matching bally shoe for the silk to step in the dance
Washrags hangin' from every one of our back pockets
From every fine wine to champagne them niggas'll straight cop it
And set up shops in them neighborhoods that was residential
Rock laced whips while the workers'll floss the latest rentals
How they fuck with arrogant bitches who act pussy
And love to hustle wit' niggas and stash coke up in they pussy
After all of that I wanted ones
The way my nigga was talkin' so next trip I went to bounce with son
So now we out of town with Guyanese cats
Up in they gates bubblin' packages and layin' wit' gats
Shit was slow until the main fiend was offed
Just like a thief in the night
And spread the word that we was back with the white
[Interlude: Busta Rhymes & Men]
Ayo why don't you tell that crackhead to close the fuckin door
And shut the fuck up
Yeah man and clean the motherfucking spot up, smell like...(Shit, shit)
Break the fuckin' breakdown in the working city, yo go get the plates
And the gym star
Yo light that up, lemme hit that, gimme a light, yeah man cut that
Fuck this shit

[Verse 2: Busta Rhymes I Ongoing background story]
Yeah, see how we blowin' pa
The lookout niggas holdin' fort like they was watchtowers
Buggin' on how we went through, a half a brick every couple of hours
So on and so on, shit is good and we eatin'
First nigga to short a package'll catch the most brutal beatin'
The whole town, see we now own it
Carryin' on and blemishin' all in the hearts of the best moments
We stackin' cheddar now and shit is all clear
That we was growin' as workin' niggas wit' aspiring ideas
We love to floss and the feelin' of pushin' chrome shit
But in the grand scheme these niggas'll love to have they own shit
Now these niggas was really ready to swell up
We decided to separate from them niggas and make our shit develop
Off in to the wilderness of the wicked Husid
We set up shops and watched the games begin
So now we ballin' like a motherfucker, money was sick
Gas on the cheddar and these bitches ridin' the dick
Fuckin' everything from the local McDonald bitches with the biggest ass
To attorney bitches that'll beat a charge fast
We used to takin' niggas' custies and leave they set up on tilt
(Ayo, bring custies to me, I'ma hit you off, you over boy, aight?)
And watch 'em angrily scheme on the shit that we built
Ain't it funny how shit transpire in fact
Not too long after our ride we took the winner's stash, house was at
Some niggas tried to run a jook with things in they palm
(With issues again! Shit can't happen!)
Not a problem so immediately reach for the John
(Feelin' this, motherfuck you mean?)
Right away the gun, bust straight lifted a nigga
How we moved his organs with kickback, shifted a nigga
(Ah, what? Y'all niggas wanna play? What! What!)
Wild shots fire, everybody scatter like rats
Leavin' nothing but gunpowder and a trail of smoke in these gats
Now we got this faggot nigga blood on our hands (Yeah)
But fuck it, determined to fulfill the best of these plans (Fuck you mean, we doin'?)
Shit was hot but we was nowhere near ready to fall
My son said he shot, but he wasn't bleedin' at all
(Alright son? C'mon)
Word, I started buggin' when my nigga said he feel cold
Then I looked up on the right side of his shirt and found a little hole
So as we continue to radically blaze the fifth
Flame the iron, not giving a fuck, y'all niggas wanna rip?
Well we deaded three out of the four niggas who tried to jook
One nigga slid and think he got off the hook (Yeah)
Now let me find out one out of them three niggas we bodied
Was one of them Guyanese niggas who buy drinks up for the party
He was the nigga to flood the table with champagnes
Stupid motherfucker tried to front, we had to leak his brain
(Fuckers!)
Suddenly my nigga fell to the floor
And said his legs feel like them shits ain't got no feelin's no more
More the actin' up the more the shit I felt in my gut
(Get up)
The shit was all over as soon as the director said cut
[Outro]
That's a wrap, good actin' motherfuckers, good actin'
That's the shit I'm talkin' about
Y'all ready to watch the playback?
Fuck around, that shit be a box office smash, motherfuckers
Ehehe...
[Applause]

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

On this track from Anarchy, Busta decides to write a storytelling rap about a crime tale. Beginning with a skit, we are then led into some violin-based Nottz production, which provides a haunting backdrop for Busta to rip a tale similar to that in “Things We Be Doin' for Money” (Parts 1 and 2) from his 1997 album, “When Disaster Strikes…”.

The track comes in at number 13 on Busta’s 4th album Anarchy, and carries a similar sound to the previous track on the tracklist, “The Heist”. This is also the only song on this entire album to not have any hook, or at least singing of some sort, throughout the track.
