[Prodigy]
|
First of all we the one and only
|
Infamous and Mary Blige
|
Coming straight, ghetto poetry
|
And ain't nothing changed but the size of the money
|
I'm still that same 'g'
|
Can you say the same thing?
|
|
[Havoc]
|
Must be blind to the fact Mary Queen on the wax
|
We the kings on the streets
|
Ain't know where your heart at, look inside
|
And you'll find a entertainer, one of a kind
|
That's way ahead of her time
|
Take a look
|
|
[Mary]
|
Oh I need to know
|
If you can get into my mind
|
Stimulate it
|
Give me good love all the time
|
Or are you just another man
|
Who's after me for all my paper
|
Looking for a ride that's free
|
|
[1 - Mary]
|
Deep inside I wish you'd see
|
That I'm just plain old Mary
|
Deep inside I wish you'd see
|
That I'm just plain old, plain old Mary J. Blige
|
|
[Mary]
|
Now you see for seven years I lived life openly
|
So it's hard to find someone who really knows me
|
So I say these things just so that you can know
|
That you can't be with me
|
If you're trying to change my flow
|
|
[Mary]
|
Now if you take away the house
|
And you take away the clothes I wear
|
And you take away the diamonds
|
I'mma still be standing here
|
And if you take away the voice and the money
|
I will always be my nigga's favorite honey
|
And if you take away the car I drive
|
I'mma still be Mary Blige
|
|
[Repeat 1]
|
|
[Prodigy]
|
Let's separate the bullshit from the truth
|
Straight up, I ain't got time for new friends, I need paper
|
We came up from the trenches
|
It was like pulling teeth without sedation
|
From the benches to the Bentley seats
|
Nigga, we the M-O-B-B
|
What, you ain't heard? You can't see?
|
Ever since the cash they wanna hound P
|
Oh now you got L-O-V-E for me
|
|
[Havoc]
|
Doing this for about a decade Mobb and Mary
|
Troopers in the game with a heavy load to carry
|
After all the trials and tribulations
|
Rumors we faced, the media invading our space
|
That's the price you gotta pay
|
Take away by signs of whips
|
I'mma just plain old me at the end of the day
|
You can say what you choose
|
God gonna see me through
|
Criticize all you want 'till your face turn blue
|
I know you see
|
|
[Mary]
|
If you take away the house
|
And you take away the clothes I wear
|
And you take away the diamonds
|
I'mma still be standing here
|
And if you take away the voice and the money
|
I will always be my nigga's favorite honey
|
And if you take away the car I drive
|
I'mma still be Mary Blige
|
|
[Repeat 1 till end]
