What is paper to a nigga if the nigga don't stack
(Yo, why the hell you asking me that)
Why do these girls, look so good in the summer
(I don't know, I'm just saying this shit)
If you got ta-dat-ta-dat-tap for your lady would you wanna
(Hmmm, yeah, right)
Cause you answer the phone peace do that mean that you not a freak
(Hell no! That's right)
Cause you recognize me, yo, I got to speak

Yo, if I'm a intellectual, I can't be sexual

If I want to, does that mean I lack respect for you

You see a grown man, why fuck that young girl, are you lusting
(I might look twenty but I'm 15, slow down girl)
If you got paper like that, then why you still hustling

Now you know yo' stomach too big, to be wearing a shirt like that

So why, you want, to go and do that

Why ya why ya why ya why ya why ya wanna why ya wanna
Why ya wanna go and do that love huh

Yo why your girl gigiddy when my name come up
How come the industry build careers that don't last

Why do I need I.D. to get I.D.

Why do these fine ghetto women got so much ass
(Why'd you talking about our ass though come on now)
Why did Dr. J shave his beard and mustache
(Like this, and like this)
How you got high expectations but got no patience
