Grand Puba is very special
Grand Puba is very special
Grand Puba is very special
Grand Puba is very specialNow many guys may come to you
With a line that isn't true an' you pass them by
But it doesn't mean a thing
'Cause Grand Puba got that game
So won'tcha let me try?
Now just because I drive a Mercedes Benz
That don't mean I'm gonna be trickin' on skins
See all I'm sayin' is la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, love me
It's Grand P, twist the L, yo, twist the L
See, I'm sayin' just la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, love me
It's Grand P, twist the L, yo, twist the LHere goes the man with the pecan tan
The one who flims the flam
The one who plays weak MC's out like ham
I got the style that be bangin' when the flow gets to slangin'
I be leavin' MCs hangin' on my jammy just swangin'
So many brothers try to be me
Only two can probably see me that's Ray Charles an' Stevie
My shit knocks from Lincoln popcorn down to Fraggle Rock
Me turn pop? Save that shit for Arnold Redenbach
'Cause when it comes to this, see, Puba's not a stranger
Get the honies hooked like they kids is hooked on Power Rangers
An' I ain't goin' no where, word is born
'Cause I've been doin' this since Shay Shay Lafon
I tell my record people everyday, We do this my way
'Cause when it comes to my music, I don't play
I'll came an' slay ya or I may ah
Make sure my getaway is more swifter than O.J., because 
Grand Puba is very special
Grand Puba is very special

Grand Puba is very special
Well, who dat, who do dat? 
It's Pubat, well true dat
While some try stealin' but they just keep failin'
'Cause there's nothin' but smooth sailin'
The way I bring it to ya, hon
Leave another stuck my scoop is how I get it done
There goes the little drummer boy, so purump papumpum
It's Grand Puba, hon
I hit it ruff like Agent Orange still puffin' stuff
I smack some mingos an' sit back an' watch my pockets fluff
Grand Puba here to get the party started
See, I come with the exotic while you're puffin' your narcotics
I'll be damned if this don't hitcha where it's suppose to getcha
I keep it flowin', now would I bullshit cha?
I create styles an' fashion with compassion
While others are simply trashin'
'Cause my shit is simply smashin'
Stud Doogie still with me
From sea to shinin' sea
Grand Puba is very special
Grand Puba is very special
Grand Puba is very special
Grand Puba is very special
Grand Puba is very special
Grand Puba is very special
Grand Puba is very special
