~#**************#~
Hip-Hop better wake up, the bed to makeups
~#**************#~
Some of yall be faker than a drag on make up
~#**************#~
Got issues to take up, before we break up
~#**************#~
Like Elektra let go Miss Anita Baker
~#**************#~
I love Jacob, but jewelry wont fix my place up
~#**************#~
Gotta stay up, studio nights to cake up
~#**************#~
Now check my flavor, rich folks is now my neighbors
~#**************#~
I got cable, now check out how I made my paper
~#**************#~
Hip-Hop dont stop, be my Lifesaver
~#**************#~
Like Kobe and Shaq if they left Lakers
~#**************#~
Im like an elevator DJ on the crossfader
~#**************#~
Black people wake up and see your ass later
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Missy Elliott]
~#**************#~
If you dont got a gun (Its alright)
~#**************#~
If ya makin legal money (Its alright)
~#**************#~
If you gotta keep ya clothes on (Its alright)
~#**************#~
You aint got a cellular phone (Its alright)
~#**************#~
And ya wheels dont spin (Its alright)
~#**************#~
And you gotta wear them jeans again (Its alright)
~#**************#~
Yeah if you tried oh well (Its alright)
~#**************#~
MCs stop the beef, lets sell (Its alright)
~#**************#~
[Verse 3: JAY-Z & Missy Elliott]
~#**************#~
I need rims that dont glisten and a booming system
~#**************#~
First piece of change I see, Im gon get one
~#**************#~
745 no license to drive
~#**************#~
I aint even got a home, I guess Ill live in my ride
~#**************#~
Fuck it (Rewind)
~#**************#~
(I can hear myself, but I cant feel myself)
~#**************#~
(I wanna feel myself like Tweet)
~#**************#~
745 no license to drive
~#**************#~
I aint even got a home, I guess Ill live in my ride
~#**************#~
Fuck it, couple karats in the ear wont hurt
~#**************#~
Need a nice chain, laying on this thousand dollar shirt
~#**************#~
Evisu Jeans cover the rectum, my kick game just like David Beckham
~#**************#~
Anybody in my way, I wet them
~#**************#~
Ima be this way till the cops come catch em
~#**************#~
Til detectives sketch em
~#**************#~
On the sidewalk wit chalk, New Yorks infections
~#**************#~
Til I got taught a lesson
~#**************#~
Couple niggas gone, couple went corrections
~#**************#~
Emory Got 10
~#**************#~
Ty got fifteen, nigga even my kin
~#**************#~
Got five years bringin nineteen in
~#**************#~
But just think I used to think like them
~#**************#~
Now they gotta live through the pictures that I send them in the pen
~#**************#~
Hope you dont start ya life where I end
~#**************#~
