Yo, I'm in the cut like Kirk Matlin
The world knows me from rappin'
The girls know me from mackin'
The only thing still crackin'
You know what it is
I kicked the square biz
And I'm the best thing goin'
Runnin' things like I'm Jesse Owens
True to life modern day bilingual Donald Goines
Players with the passport we play the whole map
50 Girls in 50 states we been did that
And still doin' that Magnum spent 50 stacks
16 Hours overseas what you know 'bout that
Late night, 5 stars, 24 hour bars
That never leave our sight
Girls line up when I write
I got 'em dark as a Pepsi or lighter as a Sprite
It's whatever you like
If your price is right
I'm Bob Barker in his prime every day and night
But I'm the D to the E-F-T
Everything's a write off cause don't nothing come free

I'm super crazy with it
I embrace with a fitted
Written by Keith Kanaza, sunset master
Girls pull strings off bikinis faster
I'm their pastor like Troy with egg foo young and soy
The trips are bigger than St. Croix
Jamaica, Passa Passa
DVD's watch the mob remove concrete
You could play Hoffa
Quick like Mustafa
More speed than Muhammad
Philip Bailey or Halley's Comet
My vinegar stay balsamic
You guys retired
You told me you promised
You English muffin talkin' like Thomas
