    Even though R.A says in a Vlad TV interview that he hates this beat he went ill on the song anyway. Him losing his breath control during the end of his verse was pretty funny but still he killed it. One of the G.O.AT! So glad that he did the Cunt Renaissance with B.I.G!! Mysogonmy at it's finest!

      Stolen from a production duo called Hairy Diamond, who originally sampled the Ad Libs song “Giving up” and added the beat 5 years earlier

    [Intro]
    (Give it up!
    But it's just no use!)
    [Hook: sample]
    (Give it up! Oh Lord
    Give it all to you
    I try, but it's just no use!)
    [Verse 1: R.A. the Rugged Man]
    Hey yo, give it up, bust you up, no fuss, blood gush
    Cuss much, Russ Meyer bust nuts, crunch crush
    Guts bust, what's what? The white King Tut
    Out in Suffolk, look who they dug up, yup, it's the Rugged
    On a record with J-Live, I could hardly believe this
    I never thought I'd be rapping on no record with school teachers
    Pamphlets from the eighties, library, lies buried
    TV, tell lies visually, kid you with me, hostility
    "Humility, hillbilly, gorilla, he mentally ill, he silly
    Is he actually? Will he kill me really?"
    All that stuff you heard about me, is probably true
    Heard I got the AIDS virus, I probably do
    Ammunition spitting isn't missing, isn't you listening?
    Slithering, ridden in sin, slipping, sin delivering
    I'm sickening with sinning, sizzling rhythm, verbally hit him
    Did he did it, or did he didn't admit it?
    Pretend he ain't offending the men and women
    Every minute he in it, only
    Every illiterate ignorant critic will diss it
    Every idiot that ain't live it, they talking shit
    I'm R.A. the Rugged Man, get off, my dick
    [Hook]
    [Verse 2: J-Live]
    Give it up, for the Gods & the Earths, ladies and gentleman
    All the human families, the wicked can't stand me
    The righteous man hands me the mic, it's uncanny how
    One man's penalty, is another man's reward
    The label pun's ironic, courtesy of this sport
    Still can't stop a grown man from pressing record
    A free man can either be freedom or free label
    When you spent, what you make, to keep making, you can't save
    A damn thing, no savings, that's how life will enslave ya
    That's why I strive daily; to be my own savior
    I know when shine glows and reflects in my behavior
    So caught in between checks, I still demand respect
    So give it up, if your mission's belittling my position
    As a microphone physician, making you listen
    Me and Rugged Man relate, through a previous poem
    Like he said, I'm mad famous, for being unknown
    On records for ten years, I can hardly believe it
    Never thought I'd be perceived, as just some rapping school teacher
    Just some dude, that can cut and rhyme, same time
    Just some conscious kid, that's trying to save the world through rhyme
    Just another underground, hand-to-mouth microphonist
    Stop in mid rap, just to stop you in your tracks
    This will stomp you on your track, justice is not just
    Another ordinary rapper, I'm the Crown Royal block
    With a velvet bag, matter of fact, and since the swagger is back
    And backed by, a whole nation of millions
    You can't hold me, my new floor is my old ceiling
    That's why I'm guaranteed to leave you with something you lack, so just
    [Hook]
