Beef is not what Jay said to Nas
Beef is when the working folks can't find jobs
So they trying to find niggas to rob
Trying to find bigger guns for them to finish the job
Beef is when the crack babies can't find moms

Beef is the cocaine and AIDS epidemic
Beef don't come with a radio edit
Beef is when the judge is calling you defendant
Beef, it come with a long jail sentence
Handed down to you in a few short minutes
Beef is when your girl come due for a visit

Beef is high blood pressure and bad credit
Need a loan for your home
But you're too broke to get it
And all you little kids doing is getting

Beef, it come with a long jail sentence
Handed down to you in a few short minutes
Beef is when the judge is calling you defendant

Beef, it come with a long jail sentence


To tell you how she pregnant by some other nigga
Beef is high blood pressure and bad credit
Need a loan for your home but you're too broke to get it
And all you little kids doing is getting AIDS epidemic
Beef don't come with a radio edit
Beef is when the judge is callin' you defendant
Beef, it come with a long jail sentence
Handed down to you in a few short minutes
Beef is when your girl come due for a visit
Tell you how she pregnant, boss him off a nigga
Beef is high blood pressure and bad cr-
