Three Names Lyrics

Original Lyrics

NIGGA WHO? NIGGA WHAT? Uh Uh Yeah Play your hand, touch paper Can't touch the throne of Ali Boubacar Bonkano Nigga what? Nigga who? Y'all know damn well what Bonkano do Gossip, gossip, nigga, cut the shit Loose lips, loose change, that's a bad investment Came from the deep end, now the deep end got a witness Name ring through the walls, every brick got a digit Nigga who? Nigga what? Fuck the captions, fuck the shit you heard Whole damn biography built off three words Blank page, crooked pen, somebody forged the margins Now the ink got weight, every stroke left a charge in Nigga what? Nigga who? Silver tongue, but the sentence came counterfeit Nigga what? Nigga who? Big shoes, little footprints — who fitted that shit? One loose thread and the whole damn weave get stripped Static in the wire, now the signal got bent Smoke in the mirror, but the glass keep evidence Three names on the marquee, ain't no understudy here Red ink in the ledger, every figure disappear Nigga who? Nigga what? Whose hand on the seal? Nigga who? Nigga what? Whose name on the bill? Nigga who? Nigga what? What the fuck? Nigga what? Bonkano on the beat, floorboards know the pressure Built the weight from the ground, now the ground need a stretcher Rumor wear sneakers, truth move in leather Lab-grade diamonds still crack under inspection Nigga who? Nigga what? Pretty little picture with a frame full of cracks Gold leaf on the surface, still the wood showing back Name carry weight like a briefcase full of bricks One stamp on the page make the counterfeit split Nigga who? Nigga who? Nigga what? Nigga what? Play your hand, touch paper Can't reach this altitude, Bonkano skyscraper Dice hit the felt, now the odds look altered One card face down got the whole deck compromised Nigga what? Nigga who? Table tilted, now the cards got burned Cold shoulder, warm receipt, that's a strange exchange Velvet on the envelope, but the balance still changed Keyboard keys bent, couldn't crack what was coded Front-page ink can't rewrite what the ledger recorded Nigga who? Nigga what? Who wired the fuse? Nigga who? Nigga what? Who lit the news? Fuck the fake shit, fuck the side-door pass Sneak-print footprints all over the glass If the shoe fit, let the sole leave proof Bonkano name heavy, make the floor tell truth Ali Boubacar Bonkano Three names carved deep, that's a permanent inscription Nigga who? Nigga what? Say all three, feel the room shift position Nigga who? Nigga what? Say it with your chest Nigga who? Nigga what? Who the fuck next? Play your hand, touch paper Can't touch the throne, different floor, different access Nigga who? Nigga what? Y'all know damn well what Bonkano do Gossip, gossip, nigga, cut the shit Rumor got a passport, truth don't need the trip Headline got a price, fine print got the figure Bonkano name stamped — counterfeit leave fingerprints Nigga who? Nigga what?
