- VERSE #1 -
Making your way down the road of life
Meet 2 many people trying 2 wrong your right
Taking your kindness for weakness and when U speak
People get shocked now ‘cause U them weep
Talk about unity but what do U know?
2 faced attitudes sho’ ain’t the way 2 go
Thinking they’re someone ‘cause they got the stroke
I’ll pass U in the gutter when your ego’s go broke
- CHORUS -
What U get is what U see
No mistaken identity
Get your damn self totally free
Today I’m gonna be ME
- VERSE #2 -
Thought U could put me aside? (no no)
I’m sure your mama told U that I’m larger than life (I know she told U)
Don’t give a damn ‘bout your royalties (they mean nothing 2 me)
U never made enough 2 quite acknowledge me - no (U never made enough 2 pay me)
Now people say that you’re threatened now is this true?
I’ve seen your face with the things I do (I know you’re scared)
U tried 2 keep me down and brush me out the way
I could write a better song than your album in a day (and U know that)
- CHORUS -
So let me play...
- VERSE #3 -
U didn’t wanna play with me
That’s okay ‘cause I still remain free
When U open your mouth it ain’t very nice
When I open my mouth you’re gonna pay the price
Now I ain’t saying that I’m betta than U
But I know what I can do
It seems now that you’ve seen it yourself
U wanna do your damn best 2 put me on the shelf
(Oh no that ain’t gonna happen!)
