Yay-yay
It's your homie Ice Cube
With the three mix
But this time, I got the one and only with me
Mr.-Mr. Scarface
Two of the best to ever do it
And y'all motherfuckers knew it
I put the G in the ghetto
Boy in the hood like Ren, Eazy-E, Dr. Dre, Cube and Yella (Hello)
There he go, lil' nigga, big ego (Uh-huh)
'Cause I'll slap a motherfucker like Deebo (Smack)
And you about to be a witness to this shit
'Cause I'm about to give the business to this bitch
Now where the nigga go? (Where that nigga go?)
Is it typical
For one man to be that egotistical?
I'm in the dark room, bangin' on the ivory
Hittin' all the wrong keys, listenin' to my diary (Did that)
I love Cube for introducin' me to G raps
That was way before we did the song with G-Rap
Mr. Scarface is back
You niggas need to start facin' facts 'cause y'all wastin' tracks
You only get a minute to pray and a second to flee
Your number-one rapper second to me
What you expect him to be?
They know
It's my ego
All you hoes (All you hoes), you know (You know how it go)
It's my ego (Yeah)
They'll call you arrogant, they'll call you cocky too
Come back and beat they ass just like Rocky two
I'm your hero, he's a young weirdo
I've been here over thirty-five years, though
Little bastards always try to put the master out to pasture
That's a disaster
Young guns, they think they much faster
I'm the blaster, turn you into Casper, fool
Turn you into plaster, fool
Be hard as concrete in your casket, fool
I know the protocol, pride come before the fall
But your confidence, it need a overhaul
You kinda timid, me? I'm self-centered
You 'bout as loud and rowdy as Kawhi Leonard
Me and Scarface push you to the limit
Yep, we represent it, bitch, 'til you steppin' in it
We the shit
They know (Don't forget)
It's my ego (Ice Cube and Scarface)
All you hoes (All you hoes), you know (You know how it go)
It's my ego (Yeah)
It's my ego
All you hoes (All you hoes), you know (You know how it go)
It's my ego (Yeah)
