[Chorus: sampled singer (Inpsectah Deck)]
 One of these days and you wont be long (It wont be long now)
 One of these days and you wont be long (You bound to come up)
 One of these days and you wont be long (Keep your eyes on us)
 One of these days and you wont be long (Yeah, yeah, yeah, Deck)

 [Inspectah Deck]
 I'm from the home where the buffalo roam
 And niggas don't give a flyin' [bad word]  Talk with signs up, walk with the iron tucked
 Leave your eyes wide shut
 Money bag's on +The Table+, gots to get locked up
 Rebel I's simply slicker, pick up a pretty sister
 Dig her out on +The Table+, bend off the remy licker
 Head splitter, deliver so cold I send shivers
 From many figures, battle the world or any [bad word]  I'm Uptown +Saturday Nite+ like Bill Carr's
 Got weed in the jars with vanilla cigars
 On the strip, eyeballin' the chicks, holdin' the mix
 Blast off of my [bad word]  vibratin' the whip

 [Chorus: sampled singer (Raekwon)] 
 One of these days and you wont be long (That's what you call it pa)
 One of these days and you wont be long (Chef!)

 [Raekwon]
 Yo I'm sicker than the V12 [X5]
 With cracks in the Rolly jumper all we do is Drink [bad word]  Drive
 Real niggas raise up, Mommy get your feet off +The Table+
 The cable luck bare, my man got me one on his leckle
 It's nothin' for me to get up with you, guts with you
 Blow off them matches and sit up with you
 Aiyo the streets, what is gettin' more crazy?
 Stressin' me nothin', investin' the leathers, we all into things blazin'
 Slingin' coke is just a normal habit, rappers we wear
 Straddlers with cannons and hatchets gettin' cheers
 Yatzis are fresh off the block, block squeezin', it's real
 If we get real, put pop, poppin' at your blocks equal
 Take these niggas and throw 'em in lakes, it's business
 Rake these niggas on the mic, display your ninjas
 Nines crowns verses your nine towns
 Run up with nine 9's, brown down, get to lyin' you down

 [Chorus: sampled singer {U-God} (Raekwon)] 
 One of these days and you wont be long {Yo} (That's what you call it pa)
 One of these days and you wont be long {Yo, yo}

 [U-God]
 I come from the slums, I ain't no dummy
 My testiment talk, represent money
 This +Verbal Intercourse+, fueled by exhaust
 The bread winner, head spinner, coldest with the force
 No remorse, endorse the rap artist
 So flamboyant cos I pimp slap the hardest
 Ever since the +Triumph+ we've been missin' them soldiers
 We came tonight, boy the mission is cobra, full exploder
 Bulldose through the rubbish, I'm in too deep boy
