Lansky (Feat. Tay Diggs)

Gentleman gangster, we love that

My reputation can often at times precede itself
Fixer I can fix it reach out to me if you need some help (I gotchu)
We been needin wealth since we got off the boat the greed was felt
And now I'm on a mission so history don't repeat itself
I can see myself rubbin shoulders mobbin wit Luck and Bugsy
Somewhere off in Harlem we runnin lottos where get ugly
Not for nothin I hit my Jewish cousin for tips wit money
Gotta keep it tight for these people who tryna get it from me
Livin bummy isn't somethin we aspire to be you dummies
You don't like us say it wit ya chest my we ain't chummy
End up in Miami where it's beaches and it's always sunny
You ain't got the chance to catch a breath boy if you always runnin

I'm a gamblin man
Run the casino come up in Kansas then
On black again I do it in roulette I bet a grand and then
Hand in hand we sit with the house as they run the scam again
Banish them for countin the numbers like Meyer Lansky them
I'm a gamblin man
Run the casino come up in Kansas then
On black again I do it in roulette I bet a grand and then
Hand in hand we sit with the house as they run the scam again
Banish them for countin the numbers like Meyer Lansky them

An outsider but rider for crime syndicate (that's me)
Between me and the big guy what my repentance is
It's no convictions we ain't no wit no life sentences
Not even worth it for you to try makin sense of this (oh!)
Picture this, gentleman gangster but acting sense-a-less
Citizens, better beware cuz there isn't censorship
Vintage, see I done elevated the penmanship
Remember this, live by the code if you on some criminal (yeah)
Open a casino and make some c-notes while up in Cuba
Biggest corporations the CEO that's the chairman to ya
It's apparent to ya the rarest form of the fairest ruler
Then I take my winnins in all percentage and see my jeweler

I'm a gamblin man
Run the casino come up in Kansas then
On black again I do it in roulette I bet a grand and then
Hand in hand we sit with the house as they run the scam again
Banish them for countin the numbers like Meyer Lansky them
I'm a gamblin man
Run the casino come up in Kansas then
On black again I do it in roulette I bet a grand and then
Hand in hand we sit with the house as they run the scam again
Banish them for countin the numbers like Meyer Lansky them

Things have changed look around you too much at stake at hand (uh huh)
I'm teaching manners to mine, cuz that's what makes a man
Take a man and pin him against a wall tryna break a man
And that could cause a man to go crazy and make a statement man
Face it I do not have the power to change the past
But I have the power to change perception and make it last
I know at times my moral integrity isn't brass
But the saint in me is hoping to steadily make a splash
I might go to court but fightin the cases
That they have brought against me
An angel with a dirty face if I could quote it simply
All I know is smarter not harder and that's why no one rinsed me
I'm winnin big on my gambles because I know they risky (ahh!)

You know somethin like that could get you hurt
Ay Momo- get out your seat
(Stay swanky)

Meyer Lansky twistin flippin no handsy
Women be poppin plan B Joey Cool is my mans G
Coolin runnin thru traffic I'm on a mission
Can sit at any table I'm vicious and really pitchin (tell 'em, ay)
And weak interrogate em they snitchin
Imma high stakes roller them 7s be really hittin (back to back)
Bulldoze I don't know ya might call of duty and scope em
I'm really fast out the holster, but from the shoulders I'm doper
I rope rope em and dope em, cooked up I'm doper
Mentally Scotia Nova, chasing billions like Hova
I'm very focused the succas already know it (know it)
Been lit since the dribble the streets is really my pulpit

I'm a gamblin man
Run the casino come up in Kansas then
On black again I do it in roulette I bet a grand and then
Hand in hand we sit with the house as they run the scam again
Banish them for countin the numbers like Meyer Lansky them
I'm a gamblin man
Run the casino come up in Kansas then
On black again I do it in roulette I bet a grand and then
Hand in hand we sit with the house as they run the scam again
Banish them for countin the numbers like Meyer Lansky them

Gentleman gangster, that's how it should be done
