Verse one:
{lilÂ’ ya}

Regional manuel aka tec-9 stay strap keep a blunt
DonÂ’t give a fuck about one time(ha) jumped six
But now heÂ’s out gettinÂ’ paid(ha) yellaÂ’s doinÂ’ the bow
So is tec and the lilÂ’ ya damn it must be a dream
IÂ’m a born entertainer heÂ’s a lyrical fiend
Three black brotherÂ’s love each other keep a fat check
AinÂ’t a nigga in the city who can fuck with tec boy

Give him credit because heÂ’s all that
But I got love and respect me for my nigga tec

I got to give it up
Much respect for my nigga tec fool
I got to give it up
Much respect for my nigga tec
I got to give it up
Much respect for my nigga tec

Second verse:
{lilÂ’ ya}

Started sellinÂ’ at eleven went to jail when he was twelve
Had him bond as a juvie and mutherfucker made bail
Went back in 91 they caught him with some weigh, a beamer
And a tec nine gun made it to the tenth dropped out and went the wrong way
Had the lord in his heart so itÂ’s a better day thereÂ’s only one tec-9
Never be another nothinÂ’ like my daddy but more like
My big brother never let me slip kept my mind right
Scratch each otherÂ’s back because we love livinÂ’ the
Legal life beinÂ’ a daddy in the rap world
