***Spoken by Mase***
Yo, yo this Mase you know what I sayin'
You got niggas that don't like me for what ever reason
You got niggas that don't want to see me rich
You got niggas that's mad cause I'm always with they bi***
Then you got niggas that just don't like me
You know those PhD niggas
But you know I pop a lot of sh** but I back it up though
See there's a difference
See a lot of niggas pop the sh**
But a lot of niggas don't make hits
But it's like this whole Bad Boy sh**
We come to bring it to ya'll niggas
Me BI, Puff, Lox, who ever, Black Rob
If we want to dance we dance
***Mase***
Now trick what? Lace who? That ain't what Mase do
Got a lot of girls that would love to replace you
Tell it to your face boo, not behind your back
Niggas talk sh** we never mind that
Funny never find that, puff a dime-stack
Write hot sh**, make a nigga say rewind that
Niggas know, we go against the Harlem Jiggalo
Getcha hoe, lick her low, make the bi*** get her dough
I represent honnies with money, fly guys with gems
Ride with the tints, that be 35 percent
Foes who I lace so I look both ways
Cop says okay, my tint smoke gray
No way nigga leave without handin' me my sh**
Got plans to get my land and my six
Niggas I depend on to stand this sh**
Pop champagne like I won the championship (uh-uh)
***Chorus sung by Notorious B.I.G. and spoken by Puff Daddy***
Been around the world and I, I, I
And we been player hated (say what)
I don't know and I don't know why
Why they want us faded (heh-heh)
I don't know why they hate us (yeah)
Is it our ladies (uh-huh)
Or I drive Mercedes (uh-uh) baby, baby, baby
***Puff Daddy***
I was in one bedroom, dreaming of a million
Now I'm in beach houses, cream to the ceilin'
I was a gentleman, livin' in tenements
Now I'm swimmin' in all the women that be tens
Went from Bad Boys to the Crushed Linen Men
Now my dividends be the new Benjimens
Hoes of all complexions, I like cinnamon
Mase you got some hoes, well nigga, send 'em in
What you waitin' for let the freak show begin
Ha they came in a truck (naw Puff, that's a Benz)
Mercedes, c'mere baby, you don't like the way it's hot and hazy
Never shady you must be crazy
It's ridiculous how you put your lips on this
Don't kiss right there girlfriend I'm ticklish
And I be switchin' fees with a wrist full of G's
Nigga please I'm the macaroni with the cheese
***Chorus***
***Puff then Mase then Puff***
Now Puff rule the world even though I'm young
Now I'm making my business to see that all ladies come
Get 'em all strung from the tip of my tongue
Lick 'em places niggas wouldn't dare put their faces
Before I die hope I ever make a flow-by
In the brand new treasure the old try
Never my throat dry, even when the smoke lie
Eat the mami chochi and drive a low ride
We never ride far, pack five in the car
Save money for the drinks, I'm about to buy the bar
And everywhere I drive I'm a star
Little kids all on the corner scream "that's my car"
There was days couldn't be fly, now I'm in a T.I.
Come in clubs with B.I., now a nigga V.I.
Rock tons of gold, enough money I fold
Roll the way you want to roll
Break a hundred at the toll
***Chorus--repeat twice***
