uh, uh, come on, uh
it be the same cats that wouldnand't listen to my demo
now i want they ass in my limo cuz now iand'm a sex symbol
intercontinental, l.a. airplay, just like jay leno
now all the labels out wanna send a memo
to do a remix yaand'll, but mase say n-o
figure once i make it, theyand'll fake it
and ainand't nobody show me love when i was naked
and when he threw my tape in the trash, i laughed
now a niggaand' tape on blast, i laugh
figure as days pass, make more cash
and i push everything from e to h-class
four years ago couldnand't go to a show
i was standinand' on the corner sellinand' dope for dough
now i no longer hope iand'll blow, smoke my droll
on a yacht, nigga fuck a boat that row
1 - with all this money that we can make,
why yaand'll cats wanna playa hate?
do you wanna get money with us, do you wanna?
do you wanna get money with us, do you wanna?
with all this money that we can make
why yaand'll cats wanna playa hate?
do you wanna get money with us, do you wanna?
do you wanna get money with us, do you wanna?
[mase]
yo, the reality of it all, everybody canand't ball
if you had currency, you wouldnand't be worryinand' and'bout me
but see, i could go the whole summer, gold hummer
but iand'd rather go lex bubble, cuz itand's less trouble
make my dough and i just stack, no investment
i live off just that
money, hoes, and clothes, and shit that iand'm best at
but iand'm a bad boy so you gotta expect that
why do what most do? do what you and'possed to
make hot jams yaand'll, sell bicoastal
if you want a hit you can let me coach you
money back on anything that got my vocals
this is so true, i do what pros do,
cuz broke ainand't a state that iand'm tryinand' to go through
dealers give me credit any place i go to
drive out in the benz say andquot;let mase owe youand'andquot;
Repeat 1
[mase]
see, the moral of the story is
iand'm not here to replace notorious
iand'm just a young cat tryinand' to do his thing
harlem world style, pursue my dream, cuz see
the things that went 3 mil, i didnand't even like that
you say you got mad hoes, well weand'll see tonight
mase be the cat thatand'll lead you to the light
messinand' with me shorty, youand'll be a-ight
stop listenand' to all them cats on the block
that tellinand' you that mase donand't rock
cuz mase is hot and mase got a drop and a yacht and a big knot
to move you and your moms off the block
for real though, mase got real dough
that be in briefcases cats kill foand'
and since you canand't beat us, itand's best you join us
cuz i know you wonand't have this hold thatand's on us
Repeat 1 until fade
