| Well. |

|
| Aww. |

|
| I find myself up in the sky again, fly-in
|
| So sincere, my dear, when I leave I cry within
|
| It’s lonesome here, candy painted oh so clear
|
| Represent the slums, Nappy through most of the year (Nappy Roots!)
|
| Shouts out to Aaliyah, live the life and very career
|
| On my wall I gotcha picture, God pray witcha
|
| It’s all on us, Nappy Boys 'In God We Trust'
|
| Regardless what, this ya boy R. Prophit whassup?!
|
| Nappy head and all, is the life for me
|
| Grand Marnier and we blowin trees
|
| This is the life God chose for me, chose for me
|
| Nappy head and all, is the life for me
|
| Grand Marnier and we blowin trees
|
| This is the life God chose for me, chose for me, chose for me
|
| I lent my apple comb to homes, gave my favorite brush away
|
| Went from baldheaded to all-dreaded, to just enough to braid
|
| It could be my lucky day, Nappy shirted up the shades
|
| Think I’m frontin, I’m cuttin somethin. |
| with my trucks and blades
|
| Let that man speak, step up — grab all my meat
|
| Greet you with my balls and my word in every handshake
|
| You damn straight, you worthless queer, price this landscape
|
| Awake, to a plate — of a homemade pancake
|
| Used to picture myself at the NFL Draft
|
| I just couldn’t remove the lens cap
|
| But I still kept my mouthpiece and my chinstrap
|
| I dread it all for a pimp hat
|
| Big body hog, new rag-top, pitch black
|
| Being average is ok, being different is alright
|
| Long as you stay in your means
|
| Then you know you keepin it real with yo’self
|
| And that’s Nappy right there…
|
| I’m in the '81 'Lac Seville, but got spend
|
| Limo tint, but see we ridin it like it’s a Benz
|
| Clamp somethin like a clam (Puff somethin like a pimp)
|
| I’m cuttin corners most players won’t attempt
|
| Skinny slum type, betcha bottom dollar that’s fa sure
|
| Nappy gonna be alright, through ups and downs and back and fer'
|
| What the hell ya talkin bout? |
| How much it cost to floss and ball
|
| We did it on a budget, rep the country till we fall
|
| Playa we in (Nappy!) enter this biz
|
| My love is in the slums and the people that’s near
|
| They love me dawg, do anything for me dawg
|
