Lyrics and translation
Original
One more time for y'all. Ye-ye-ye-yeah. Huh. If you didn't know, you know now.
OutKast. State-onia, we shittin' on everybody talkin' that bullshit.
Now Peter Piper picked a pepper, that was his downfall.
I'm down with Dre 2000 'cause he got my back, y'all. Ball if you want to, but do it with some class, G.
Ask me, do OutKast got some flows so you can blast me?
Nasty niggas on the block, they see you shinin'. And ya nears in the studio see me rhymin'.
Don't get me wrong, got four albums, stay consistent.
You got a bodyguard, I let my nigga tote the biscuit. With your cap back, you got blood up on your fur hat.
Cap, cap, your link snap, you slumped off in your Cadillac. For what though? Some diamonds and a
Bentley what you died for. Aight, ho. I'ma bake my cheeks and let my mind grow.
Prioritize to live too.
Tell these other niggas how you bought your kids some tennis shoes. Let these brothers know that your mama, she got her house too.
Let these niggas know that your sister went to finish college without you.
I doubt you do that though, so do this here and keep that bullshit out of our ear.
You too near me not to hear me, you hopin' to conceal me.
The love for the music keepin' me -goin', stay real.
-'Cause they know where you live, and they see what you drive, and they say they gonna put one in your helmet. 'Cause you brag 'bout that watch and all those things that you got.
Them dirty boys turn your pound cake to red velvet.
Yeah, this nigga one of them flaws. Yeah, we got this nigga now.
Yo, T, I got a nigga right for us. I'ma take him to the hotel. You know how it's gon' go.
-Nigga, keep braggin'. -Yeah.
-Yeah, we dyin' now.
-How can you measure a nigga by multiple figures he may got, got, got?
Had he not purchased the newest Mercedes that loses value soon as you drive that bitch off the lot, lot, lot.
Would he still be the latest most wanted, doggonit, you want it, he got it type nigga 'round the town, town, town?
Had he not played it so flashy as you and half of these niggas hurtin' and workin', would he be found, found, found?
In a hotel room, shot up with his dick shoved in some bitch gotta lot of. . .
Bill Gates don't dangle diamonds in the face of peasants when he Microsoftin' in the place. You gettin' on my nerves while I'm gettin' on your case.
Consider your surroundings or you leave without a trace.
'Cause they know where you live, and they see what you drive, and they say they gonna put one in your helmet.
'Cause you brag 'bout that watch and all those things that you got. Them dirty boys turn your pound cake to red velvet.
I know you got the biggest bankroll and you ballin'.
Follow the leader because the leader, he is all in. Ass like Juan Valdez, I think he scared.
'Cause my nigga cool so good, he got that toolie to his head. Yeah.
Little did he know that lurkin' in the closet.
No matter what you call that -Playboy sure got caught.
-Don was the one who came in contact with those with logos who prompt to sell crack.
On this megaphone, hey, look, world, I'm on. You off, he floss hard as we celebrate the fact.
Little did he know that lurkin' in the closet. No matter what you call that
Playboy sure got caught.
'Cause they know where you live, and they see what you drive, and they say they gonna put one in your helmet.
'Cause you brag 'bout that watch and all those things that you got. Them dirty boys turn your pound cake to red velvet.
'Cause they know where you live, and they see what you drive, and they say they gonna put one in your helmet. 'Cause you brag 'bout that watch and all those things that you got.
Them dirty boys turn your pound cake to red velvet
