[Intro:]

You know they gon' say
|
What Diggy know bout 88?
|
Well I know this much
|
They made a lotta money back then
|
And that's what mine lookin' like
|
|
[Verse 1: Diggy Simmons]
|
Aye lil, it's Diggy
|
Got the key to the city
|
Check my family tree
|
You know uncle taught Diddy
|
Who turned around and taught Biggie
|
And Biggie taught Jigga
|
So you can just imagine what he teaching me
|
My top down in the winter
|
My doors up in the summer
|
I pulled up to the light
|
And I drove off with her number
|
|
88 is the number!
|
Like Michael Irvin but younger
|
Ain't no preserving my hunger
|
|
Well I got 2 years in
|
And a couple of months
|
Yeah, the road was Bobby Brown
|
It had a couple of bumps
|
They be showing me love
|
Minus a couple of chumps
|
|
In my best Chris Tucker voice, "Is this watchu want?! "
|
|
[Hook:]
|
No need to front
|
Homie pardon my back
|
I'm gettin it crazy
|
How retarded is that?
|
I'm playin' my cards
|
Got a fist fulla ace's
|
And these lil faces
|
I'm spending you prolly could trace it
|
|
To 88
|
88 [x15]
|
(And I'm still spending money from 88)
|
|
[Verse 2: Diggy Simmons]

|
Derric D-Dot Angelettie
|
Compliments to the chef
|

[Hook:]
|
No need to front
|
Homie pardon my back
|
I'm gettin it crazy
|
How retarded is that?

|
[Verse 3: Jadakiss]
|
Yo, That's what my family was rockin'
|
I just sat back and watched em
|
I was only 13 So I ain't know nothin bout coppin'
|
I just knew that they had it
|
And if I asked then I got it
|
It all started from trees
|
Then it turned to narcotics
|
All the whips was exotic
|
All the chicks was erotic
|
|
All you needed was product
|
And somebody to test it
|
Find a good place to try it
|
Never keep nothin' on you
|
Find a good place to hide it
|
If I'm in it I own it
|
Cause if I like it I buy it
|
|
Keep the loud in the air
|
Kinekt like that I'm quiet
|
How'd you hop in this platinum
|
And you ain't even near gold
|
Cause I'm still spendin' money
|
That's 24 years old!
|
|
88 [x15]
|
(And I'm still spending money from 88!)
