The Tunnel - Onyx, Cormega, Papoose

Yeah!

Yeah we takin niggas back

You know what I’m sayin?

It’s sunday night, Westside Highway, 27th and 1th avenue

The notorious, home of the juxs, home of the robberies

Home of the bodies, the illest club in New York, The Tunnel

Yo!

Let’s take it back to The Tunnel, where the hoods will run upon you

For the jux son, as soon as they play (Shook Ones)

The wolves from Brooklyn, always roll deep

(Who Shot Ya?) Somebody gettin rocked to sleep

Security make you take your Timbs off in the winter

And walk through the metal detectors before you enter

When you get inside, might be a homicide

With that New York hip hop, somebody might get shot

This is where they snatch jewels razors will splash you

Flex screamin out in the club don’t let 'em gas you

Niggas takin pictures of money you know, cash rules

Bitches givin head, in the unisex bathroom

This is hell where the criminals dwell

Half the goons in the club just came home from jail

Other half couldn’t come 'cause they couldn’t make bail

It’s cold on the Westside (It ain’t hard to tell)

In The Tunnel!

The Tunnel!

(Let's take it back)

Let’s take it back to The Tunnel!!!

(L-L-Let's take it way way back!)

The Tunnel!

(Let's take it back)

Let’s take it back to The Tunnel!!!

(L-L-Let's take it way way back!)

Posted up, goons ferocious jewels cold as fuck

Those who dream about schemin, we woke 'em up

My Fort Greene niggas was born to squeeze triggers

My Queens regime was at the bar deep chillin

The Tunnel was the place for all the street niggas

You know it’s real

You can go in there and see people you know from jail

Home at last holdin stacks and dough in hand

Moment in silence Big L was always there

And Chris Lighty ran The Tunnel, he was the man

I’ve seen Diddy buy the bar out and shut it down

Please believe Free and Nitty didn’t fuck around

I walked the crowd with Tims on because my style

Is New York to the fullest, we don’t bow

All the dudes who want the crown are fuckin clowns

The Tunnel is proof, street niggas run this town

(L-L-L-L-L-L-L)

The Tunnel!

(Let's take it back)

Let’s take it back to The Tunnel!!!

(L-L-Let's take it way way back!)

The Tunnel!

(Let's take it back)

Let’s take it back to The Tunnel!!!

(L-L-Let's take it way way back!)

Stickin niggas at The Tunnel is how I use to eat

Soon as you step foot on that cobblestone street

And this is the same spot where Hype shot Belly

You could get popped, end up gettin shot in yo' belly

Come through stuntin like yo' ass is bad

You’ll get juxed up sent out in a plastic bag

This the grimiest club in the whole city

I’m talkin stick up kids, murderers, NYPD

Westside on 27th down the block from the projects

Just walk into The Tunnel you’ll get shot up and carjacked

I partied with killers, rapers and lifers

If it wasn’t for the bitches you would think it’s Rikers

That’s back when, I never smiled alot

Was on my (New York State Of Mind) shit around the clock

And it wasn’t just niggas from the N.Y.C.

It was C.T., D.C., V.A., P.A., N.C., L.I., M.D., N.J.

At The Tunnel!!!

The Tunnel!

(Let's take it back)

Let’s take it back to The Tunnel!!!

(L-L-Let's take it way way back!)

The Tunnel!

(Let's take it back)

Let’s take it back to The Tunnel!!!

Sticky, 'mega and Fredro Starr black ski mask hoodies and crowbars

Hip Hop purist prestige lyrical flow gods

Grew up in The Tunnel we came here to expose y’all

To the most dangerous night club in the whole world

Unemployed ex-cons thugs thuggin with no job

Chain snatchin stick up killers who came to go rob

Pocket nife gemstar boxcutters to blow y’all

Drug traffickin coke, pills and hydro jars

Fly diva hoodrat dime bitches with no draws

Fingerwaves braids and shades givin out blowjobs

Walked around the corner The Tunnel line is so long

Skipped everybody, Brooklyn niggas is so strong

The ice grill era, face fightin get stoned on

Punch you in face and givin you a fuckin nose job

Them bougie clubs and day parties control y’all

The real recognize the real we don’t even know y’all
