Intro: Ol' Dirty Bastard
|
|
Man man, look at the sky
|
All the stars
|
Man the stars are beautiful tonight...look at them!
|
|
Chorus: Mya
|
|
Ghetto superstar, that is what you are
|
Comin' from afar, reachin' for the stars
|
Run away with me, to another place
|
We can rely on each other, uh huh...
|
From one corner to another, uh huh...
|
|
Verse 1: Pras Michel
|
|
Uh, yeah, yo, yo
|
Some got hopes and dreams
|
We got ways and means
|
The supreme dreamteam
|
Always up with the scheme
|
From hubcaps to sellin' raps
|
Name your theme
|
I'mma rise to the top
|
Floatin' on this cream
|
Who the hell wanna stop me
|
I hated those who doubt me
|
A million Refugees with unlimited warranties
|
Black Ceasar, datin' top divas
|
Diplomat in Middle East, no time for a Visa
|
It just begun
|
I'mma shoot them one by one
|
Got five sides to me
|
Somethin' like a pentagon
|
Strike with the forces of King Solomon
|
Lettin' bygone be bygone
|
And so on, and so on
|
I'mma teach these cats how to live in the ghetto
|
Keepin' it retro-spective from the get-go
|
Lay low, let my mind shine like a halo
|
Politics with ghetto senators on the deal-o
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Verse 2: Ol' Dirty Bastard
|
|
One two, and you don't stop, yo!
|
My eyes are soar bein' a senator
|
Behind closed doors hittin' truth to the C floor
|
You rich don't know us, ignore
|
The tug of war while the kids who are poor
|
Open new and better drugstores
|
So I became hardcore
|
Couldn't take it no more
|
I'm gonna reveal everything
|
Change the law
|
I find myself walkin' the streets
|
Tryin' to find
|
What's really goin' on in the streets
|
|
Verse 3: Pras Michel
|
|
Yeah, yo, yo, yo...
|
Now every dog got his day, needless to say
|
When the chief away
|
That's when them cats wanna play
|
I told you, dance around you fools, like Casius Clay
|
Stretch my heater, make you do a part of beret
|
Kick your balls like Pele`
|
Think I'm doin' ballet
|
Peak like Dante
|
Broader than Broadway, get applause like a matador
|
Cry, yellin', ol?
|
Who the hell wanna see me, from B.K., to Cali?
|
Come on...uh!
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Verse 4: Pras Michel
|
|
Yeah... yo, yeah
|
Just when you thought it was safe in a common place
|
Showcase your finest and lose your bets on a horserace
|
Two face, kickin' 'n defaced out like Scarface
|
Slow your roll money, let me put on my screwface
|
|
Verse 5: Ol' Dirty Bastard
|
|
And I'm paranoid at the things I say
|
Wonderin' what's the penalty from day to day
|
I'm hangin out partyin' with girls that never die
|
The C.O.'s pickin' on the small frys
|
My campaign tellin' lies
|
I was just spreadin' my love
|
Didn't know my love
|
Was the one holdin' the gun in the glove
|
But it's all good as long as it's understood
|
It's all together now, in the hoooooooooooood......
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Pras Michel: All...Stars, yeah, yeah, yeah
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Ol' Dirty Bastard: Shake it baby!, shake it baby!
|
