[LL Cool J]
|
Look in the mirror while I tell you a tale
|
About a mogul named Uncle L
|
Sit on eight figures, man with a vision, move with precision
|
(He excels, they all fail)
|
Undisputed, the game got so polluted
|
that he turned his +Radio+ off
|
He +Needed a Beat+ so he could +Jingle+ them bells again
|
Watchin the plasma TV in the loft (with somethin soft)
|
with a leapord print outfit on
|
Cause he known to flood any mic he spit on
|
He's a (uhh uhh, +Phenomenon+)
|
Ice glistenin, listenin to +Break of Dawn+
|
He went from.. +Hollis to Hollywood+ in fact
|
Owned the Dow Jones and stacked the NASDAQ
|
Conference call with his broker, 'What's the yield on that?'
|
"Exotic Motorcars," we want a deal on that
|
|
[Chorus: sung + (LL)]
|
Mirror mirror (you go baby) speak to me (you flow baby)
|
What's this image that I see before me (you know baby)
|
It's a winner (you go baby) please believe it (you go baby)
|
I can see it so I can achieve it (you flow baby, you go baby)
|
|
[LL Cool J]
|
+Around the Way Girls+ be +Doin' It+ well
|
They love the way that man look on the (XXL)
|
On the Money magazine covers
|
When he stop at the light, it's like his Benz hovers
|
Smoke blowin from the chrome exhaust, of his Boxer Porsche
|
(Look at him, lickin his lips when his joint pull off)
|
Ever since +Boomin' System+, damn she missed him
|
She, couldn't resist him, dreamt she kissed him
|
In a, warm jacuzzi full of +Milky Cereal+
|
She said (I need love from the grand imperial)
|
I been his biggest fan since five years old
|
And now I'm 22, I love money (oooh)
|
+Backseat of the Jeep+, you need that
|
(Who do you love?) Baby repeat that
|
(Who do you love?) You need to keep back
|
Milk and +Pink Cookies+ he known to eat that
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[LL Cool J]
|
Tryin to get as much money as possible, no negative consequences
|
Knahmsayin baby? I'm goin long, feel me..
|
|
+Hey Lover+, I'm +Loungin'+
|
+Goin' Back to Cali+, cop a crib on the mountain
|
Strobelights jumpin off, birdies is bouncin
|
+(4)-to-the-3-2-1+, he stopped countin
|
Eliminated competition quickly
|
Phantom of the Opera on the low where your clique be
|
He feel his flow deep down in your artery
|
Peep her man's checkbook (uh) that's where his heart'll be
|
+6 Minutes of Pleasure+ for +Jack the Ripper+
|
Young players fall quicker from chicks and hard liquor (ahahah)
|
But uhh, he's +Bad+, he got +The Power of God+
|
In the Four Seasons, laughin at the L'urmitage(?)
|
He been there, mini-bars, R&B stars
|
Young groupies in the lobby on the search for (Bobby)
|
Young tycoon in the Steve Wynn suite
|
Readin e-mails with ten on repeat, I seen it
|
|
[Chorus + (LL speaking over, can't be heard clearly)]
|
|

|
