I know there’s something in the wake of your smile I get a notion from the look in your eyes, yeah We’ve built a love but that love falls apart A little piece of heaven turns to dark Listen to your heart
There's a certain mystique when I speak, that you notice that it's sorta unique, cause you know it's me, my poetry's deep, and I'm still matic the way I flow to this beat, you can't sit still, it's like tryin to smoke crack and go to sleep, I'm strapped, just knowing any minute I could snap, I'm the equivalent of what would happen if Bush rapped, I bully these rappers so bad lyrically, it ain't even funny, I ain't even hungry, it ain't even money, you can't pay me enough for you to play me, it's cockamamie, you just ain't zany enough to rock with Shady, my noodle is cockadoodle, my clocks cuckoo, I got screws loose, yeahhh, the whole kitten-kaboodle, I'm just brutal. It's no rumor, I'm numero uno, assume it, there's no humor in it no more, you know I'm rollin with a swollen bowling ball in my bag, you need a fag to come and tear a new hole in my ass
[Chorus]
There used to be a time when, you could just say a rhyme and Wouldn't have to worry about one of your people dying But now it's elevated, cause once you put someone's kids in it The shit gets escalated, it ain't just words no more is it? It's a different ball game, you call names and you ain't just rapping We actually tried to stop the 50 and Ja beef from happening Me and Dre had sat with him, kicked it and had a chat with him And asked him not to start it, he wasn't going to go after him Until Ja started yapping in magazines how he stabbed him Fuck it, 50 smash him, mash him and let him have it Meanwhile my attention's pulled in another direction Some receptionist at the Source who answers phones at his desk Has an erection for me and thinks that I'll be his resurrection Tries to blow the dust off his mic and make a new record But now he's fucked the game up, cause one of the ways I came up Was through that publication, the same one that made me famous Now the owner of it has got a grudge against me for nothing?
