I Got It Made |
I’m your idol, the highest title, numero uno |
I’m not a Puerto Rican, but I’m speakin so that you know |
and understand I got the gift of speech |
and it’s a blessin, |
so listen to the lesson I preach |
I talk sense condensed into the form of a poem |
full of knowledge from my toes to the top of my dome |
I’m kinda young--but my tongue speaks maturity |
I’m not a child, I don’t need nothin for security |
I get paid when my record is played--to put it short |
I got it made |
I’m outspoken-- |
my language is broken into a slang |
but it’s just a dialect that I select when I hang |
I play it cool--cuz coolin is all that I’m about |
just foolin wit tha girlies, yes I’m bustin it out |
I’m Special Ed and you can tell by the style that I use |
I’m creatively superior, yo--I never lose |
I never lost cuz I’m the boss |
I never will cuz I’m still |
the champion, chief one, won’t lose until-- |
I choose |
which I won’t cuz I don’t retreat |
I’ll run you over like a truck and leave you dead in the street |
You’re invitin me, a titan to a battle--why? |
I don’t need your respect cuz I-- |
got it made |
I’m talented, yes I’m gifted |
never boosted, never shoplifted |
I got the cash, but maoney ain’t nothin |
make a million dollars every record that I cut and-- |
my name is Special Ed and I’m a super-duper star |
ever other week I get a brand new car |
Got twenty, that’s plenty yet I still want more |
kinda fond of honda scooters--got seventy-four |
I got the riches--to fulfill my needs |
got land in the sand of the West Indies |
even got a little island of my very own-- |
I gotta frog--a dog with a solid gold bone |
An accountant to account the amount I spent |
gotta treaty with Tahiti cuz I own a percent |
got gear out wear--to everyday |
boutiques from France to the U.S.A. |
and I make all the money from the rhymes I invent |
so it really doesn’t matter--how much I spent, because, yo I make fresh rhymes--daily |
you burn me--really? |
Think, just blink and I made--a million rhymes |
just imagine if you blinked-- a million times |
damn I’d be paid-- |
I got it made |
I’m kinda spoiled |
cuz everything I want I got made |
I wanted gear--got everything from cotton to suede |
I wanted lead--I didn’t beg I just got laid |
My hair was growin too long, so I got me a fade |
and when my dishes got dirty, I got Cascade |
when the weather was hot, I got a spot in the shade |
I’m wise because I rise to the top of my grade |
wanted peace on Earth, so to God I prayed |
Some kids across town thought I was afraid |
they couldn’t harm me-- |
I got the army brigade |
I’m not a trader |
if what you got is greater I’ll trade |
but maybe later cuz my waiter made potato -n- alligator souflee-- |
I got it made |
