9th Wonder - Take it There lyrics

[Rapper Big Pooh] Ain't no way y'all could stop me Even if you made a carbon copy, I'd out-rhyme myself Put your wack sh** back on the shelf and push back the release You now dealing with an untamed beast I'm on the rise like an oven of yeast Been rocking these streets since Culture Club had album released In the States, around here money we play for big cakes And Betty Crocker ain't got nothin on that Nothin on DAT, nothin on wax, plenty to play Plenty to say, exclusive, come check this new sh** A blue chip but still looking for a scholarship Better get him now cause he's promising That's alright do', y'all ain't gotta f** with me Give me some months and you stuck with me Y'all monkey'd out, I'm in your life just funkin around Thumpin around, pumpin my sound, now dream on this here [Hook: Rapper Big Pooh] Y'all n***as ain't really tryna take it there You talkin big but you ain't tryna take it there Your house, your car, the mall, n***a I don't care J-League n***as bout to bring it anywhere Yo-Yo! Y'all n***as ain't tryna take it there You talkin big but you ain't tryna take it there Your house, your car, the mall, n***a I don't care J-League n***as bout to bring it anywhere [Phonte] Man, I was chillin at the mall on a Saturday Me and my girl and my son at the matinee The album just dropped so people start to gravitate Approached by five n***as dressed like Little Fabulae Doo rags and Yankee caps on, this kind of sad to say I showed 'em love, ain't no need for getting mad today Thanks for supporting us dog, that's all I had to say "Man, that n***a 'Te cain't rhyme" Man, n***a no the f** you didn't!!! Goddamn it we gon' settle the beef! n***as heard me singing hooks on The Listening, y'all thought it was sweet In my face rhyming, tryna redeem somethin Claiming you from up north like that's really supposed to mean somethin This rap sh** I take serious I ain't the nicest cat in NC, b**h I'm the nicest n***a period That's how them lames got dropped Had all them Chinese b**hes clapping for me at the Flaming Wok [Hook: Phonte] Y'all n***as ain't really tryna take it there You're talkin big but you ain't tryna take it there Your house, your car, the mall, n***a I don't care It's J-League, yo we bring it to you anywhere Y'all motherf**ers ain't really tryna take it there You're talkin big but you ain't tryna take it there Basketball practice, prayer meeting, I don't care Little Brother, yo we bring it y'all anywhere [Rapper Big Pooh] Don't take my speech for granted Them jaded eyes will get you topped off A hard knock off, you see this block of Down South n***as, yeah we get our rocks off [Phonte] Just to show y'all n***as that we not soft Bring the hot sauce dog, this hella proper n***as heard Peedi one time Now everybody think we wave our shirts like helicopters But I ain't hating though, ain't nothin wrong with that Bringin it live giving y'all a little more than that [Hook: Phonte] Ay yo-yo, y'all ain't really tryna take it there You're talkin big but you ain't tryna take it there Your house, your car, the mall, n***a I don't care It's J-League, yo we bring it to you anywhere Y'all motherf**ers ain't really tryna take it there You're talkin big but you ain't tryna take it there Your house, the car, the mall, n***a I don't care It's Little Brother, yo we give it you anywhere [*Phonte talks to end*]
