  • Yeah ma, your dude is back, made back roof is back

    Where my hustlers where my boosters at
    I don't care what you do for stacks
    I know the world glued you back to the wall

    I been through that, been shot at shoot back
    Gotta keep it peace like a Buddhist
    I ain't a New Jack nobody goin' Wesley Snipe me
    It's less than likely, move back
    Let I breathe Jedi Knight
    The more space I get the better I write
    (Oh) Never I write, but, if, ever I write
    I need the space to say whatever I like, now just

    I brought you from the projects
    And I'm a take you to the top of the globe so let's go (change numbers and go)
    Uh huh yeah, uh (now girl I promise you, no substitute)
    It's just me

    And I goin' tell you again let's get ghost in the phantom
    You could bring your friend we could make this a tandem
    You could come by yourself and you could stand him
    Best believe I sweat out weaves, give Afro puffs like R.A.g.e.
    You get if you could move it
    Back it on up like a you Haul truck
    Then run and tell them thugs you heard HOV knew
    He and the boy for real make beautiful music
    He is to the east coast what Snoop is, to the west coast what Face is to Houston
    Young HOV in the house it's so necessary
    No bra with the blouse it's so necessary
    No panties and jeans that's so necessary
    Now why you fronting on me is that necessary
    Do I to you look like a lame
    Who don't understand a bra with a mean shoe game
    Whose up on Dot Dot Dot and Vera Wang
    Ma are you insane, let's just
    (What you want me to do?)

    (Change clothes and go) You know I stay, fresh to death
    I brought you from the projects
    And I'm a take you to the top of the globe so let's go (change numbers and go)
    Uh huh yeah, uh (now girl I promise you, no substitute)
    It's just me

    Uh, uh (sexy sexy) Woo!
    Uh huh (sexy sexy) It's so necessary right)
    Uh huh, woo! (Sexy sexy) that's right it's a groove
    Uh huh, it's a groove (sexy sexy) bring it back

    Young HOV in the house it's so necessary
    No bra with that blouse it's so necessary
    No panties and jeans it's so necessary
    Why you fronting on me?
    Let's go to my hotel cause this don't go well
    With those S Dots, gotta to stay fresh ma

    But y'all niggas acting way to tough
    Throw on a suit get it tapered up, and let's just

    (Change clothes and go) You know I stay, fresh to death
    I brought you from the projects
    And I'm a take you to the top of the globe so let's go (change numbers and go)
    Uh huh yeah, uh (now girl I promise you, no substitute)
    It's just me
