  • Ah ah
    Baby girl was draped in Chanel
    Said she love Tupac but hates some LL
    Seen her at the bar with anklets and toe rings
    She can take a prince, turn him into a king
    I was looking at her in the limelight, pearly whites
    Said her man get paper but he don't live right
    All these emotions flowing inside the club
    Do you really wanna thug or do ya want love?
    She gets the paper when it's time to get it on
    She keeps these clowns thinking like Jack B. Quick
    Honey smoke make you click, feel it in their throats
    No joke all this love, let it stay broke out
    Behind every playa is a true playette
    Bounce you up, outta there, push and check
    Taster's choice, have you nice and moist
    Or play paper games or floss the Rolls Royce

    Something like a phenomenon

    He was king of seduction, cop a suction
    Now she was the cat that worked construction
    Starve her with the paper, abuse the mind
    Dis a new lover, when you know it's on mine
    That's on top, lap dancin' got to stop
    You play out your chick cause your game is hot
    I give you two, Italian, ice my whole crew
    He's banging on my chest till it's black and blue
    You beefin', yellin' on the cell of my six
    You reach it then you hear the cordless click
    Now your club hopping, keep the Cristal poppin'
    Use my chips and take the next man shoppin'
    Hell no, must be out Chicago
    On your knees and your elbows each and every time
    That's why I love you mami, you
    Run your mouth though your legs over the bed baby
    Work me out

    Something like a phenomenon

    He was all souped up, but played it just right
    Mami I was full blown, my game was air tight
    I needed to switch up and get it in gear
    It's a whole new movie, a world premiere, yeah yeah
    Keep it jinglin', no more minglin'
    A brand new year, me and you can bring it in
    I'm sick and tired of the freakin', night to morn'
    Moanin' in the mirror with my Cubans on
    Let bygones be bygones, no more games
    Hope all the chicken heads go up in flames
    Now we in the brand new mansion, with the lake in back
    Got it all figured out, mami I like that
    Collect tips, cop his and her whips
    The voice a quarter mil'-on, close the safe
    But you're worth it playgirl, it's real in the field
    Say what you want, but keep your lips sealed
