[00:20.28]One-fifty-eight lewis avenue
[00:21.65]Between lafayette and van buren, that was back during
[00:24.59]The days of hangin on my bed-stuy block
[00:26.58]With spence and mitch, followin my cousin murdoch
[00:29.02]All the brothers were real, goin for what they feel
[00:31.58]By the way, peace to my man sha and big neal
[00:34.20]Now in ninety-three Im still bein me
[00:35.88]You think my fridgerator aint full of olde e? huh
[00:38.50]A lot of times I get fly with a suit and a tie
[00:41.12]Yeah I went from rags to riches but I still rock the saggy britches
[00:43.63]And I dont try to act brand new
[00:46.07]Eatin escargots and usin words like rendezvous
[00:48.88]The ghetto life Ive seen a lot overcome
[00:50.94]Make a little money and then forget where they came from
[00:53.56]Livin a plastic lifestyle, youre more false than dentures
[00:56.74]Dont make me pull your file -- stop shammin!
[00:59.05]Stop, hold-up, pause, wait

[01:18.16]So why you wanna be what youre not?
[01:19.79]And claim to have things that you know you aint got
[01:22.28]Youre just a fantasizer -- spendin all your money
[01:25.15]On lustrous pink oil moisturizer
[01:27.51]Just to make your hair curly and thin
[01:29.32]You say, black is beautiful, but then you go and bleach your skin
[01:32.62]Money youre worse than yacub
[01:34.18]Cause their are eight stages of graft and you broke down to two
[01:37.00]Plus you got a bad case of jungle fever
[01:39.55]And nmmana-nah-nah I just cant believe ya
[01:41.98]Its quite obvious you dont wanna be a black man
[01:44.42]So whats next - youre gonna join the klu klux klan?
[01:46.79]You sold out to your race and its a big disgrace
[01:49.43]You cant look your own people in the face
[01:51.61]You wonder why it aint no black schools or hospitals
[01:53.86]Youre makin millions of dollars and its pitiful
[01:55.85]That you can donate to leukemia all the time
[01:57.97]But you cant give the nation of islam a dime
[02:01.28]They mention muslims, you change the subject
[02:03.34]You cant even shake farrakhan hand in public
[02:05.71]That whole busy attitude is a sham
[02:08.33]Umm bro, umm brother, umm.. brougham, stop shammin

[02:27.31]
[02:28.12]Change the groove and funk it up a little bit
[02:29.78]
[02:40.01]I look in the mirror, at times I say, damn black caesar
[02:42.46]Howd you get to be the woman pleaser?
[02:44.47]Cause I remember when girls didnt notice me
[02:46.78]And now they wanna come and talk to me like jodeci
[02:49.60]Its strange, how back in the days I couldnt get with em
[02:52.18]Now all of a sudden the honies they wanna give me rhythm
[02:54.38]Well ima hit it, but still I show no pity
[02:56.31]So I hope you dont think you gonna be in my next video
[02:59.18]And many brothers I never even ran with
[03:01.12]Be actin like they been hangin with me since I was a kid
[03:03.93]I mean just to get a piece of the action
[03:05.98]Man they start rememberin more times than michael jackson
[03:08.42]
[03:09.29]But I cant fade to the tag-alongs
[03:11.66]That want me to drag em on
[03:13.47]Frontin like a friend just so I can put em in
[03:16.47]But you cuttin yourself paper thin - stop shammin!
