Yesterday I saw a B-girl crying Yesterday I saw a B-girl crying I walked up and asked what's wrong She told me that the radio's been playing the same song all day long So I told her I got something you've been waiting for I got something you've been waiting for Yesterday I saw a B-girl crying, I walked up and asked what's wrong, she told me that The radio's been playing the same song all day long So get your glass lift it up in the toast position We getting paper like John Travolta get it Cause we focused with it we supposed to get it You know me and my whole squad we so committed We not the kids coolin' out on the sofa wit it We about to dominate the globe like Oprah did it We getting paper like John Travolta nigga Well I'm a downtown shoota who that? The crown ruler is back He congruent to the shape of a mack Look how I do it yo I'm takin' you back This how you rise down to the foundation how sacred is that? I'm from the number one place on the map The generational gap with yet another sensational track And we don't stress for nothing I just press the button It's as simple as just makin' it hap To all the frauds stop fakin' relax And to the broads if you cakin' Then clap then shake it without breakin' your back I know the world been waitin' for that you been aching fa that Cause what they playin' on the station is wack And I'm a legend in the flesh that dress to impress The best is that which I accept and nothing less My stacks is grotesque my squad is so fresh You know its Black Thought and your boy the Bro Quest, but Yesterday I saw a B-girl crying I walked up and asked what's wrong She told me that the radio's been playing the same song all day long So get your glass lift it up and in toast position We getting paper like John Travolta get it Cause we focused wit it we supposed to get it You know me and my whole squad we so committed We got the kids coolin' out on the sofa wit it We about to dominate the globe like Oprah did it We getting paper like John Travolta nigga so lets go Hip-Hop ain't dead cause the pulse is in us I got the everclear flow they mimosa wit it We are the hope of the culture they posed to listen And I'm posed to pivot like I'm a forward in the league, I'm Oden wit it Yet don't owe them niggas nothin' but potent lyrics But if you ain't gotta dance they revoke your spinnin' So good rappers ain't eatin' they Olsen twinin' But I'm so committed, they have grown familiar With the counterfeit hitters they so so with it but they a Sosa with it. They Mark McGuire with the writtin' I'm Rodriguez On the road to riches this is the fork I'm hittin' This is the trial and error era no co defendant I push the seed every time like I'm Cody wit it I said they one hit wonders pneumonia to us I don't know you niggas hit the road my nigga Yesterday I saw a B-girl crying I walked up and asked what's wrong She told me that the radio's been playing the same song all day long So get your glass lift it up and in toast position We getting paper like John Travolta get it Cause we focused wit it we supposed to get it You know me and my whole squad we so committed We got the kids coolin' out on the sofa wit it We about to dominate the globe like Oprah did it We getting paper like John Travolta nigga so lets go Where my grimey figures at? look lively addressing the captain Show me where your first impression is at And where your dedication to the true profession is at How you laugh answer me what kind of question is that I'll show you where my rare essence is at the adolescence of rap The real muscle in the message of that My name trouble I'm a blessin' to rap And you can check my stats cause worldwide they attesting to that So nigga listen you can probably learn a lesson perhaps How I'm like bobby DeNiro Joe Pesc and them cats Am I the unsung hero oh yes if you askin' anybody that's aware of the classics They'll tell you I'm a legend in the flesh that dress to impress The best is that which I accept and nothing less My stacks is grotesque my squad? so fresh You know its Black Thought and your boy the bro Quest, but Yesterday I saw a B-girl crying I walked up and asked what's wrong She told me that the radio's been playing the same song all day long So get your glass lift it up and in toast position We getting paper like John Travolta get it Cause we focused wit it we supposed to get it You know me and my whole squad we so committed We got the kids coolin' out on the sofa wit it We about to dominate the globe like Oprah did it So lets go
