Shawty Lo - Speaks on I'm da Man lyrics

The song wasn't even called "I'm da Man" at, at first, you know what I'm saying? I used to come to the studio, run through beats and sh**, you know what I'm saying? I had like that beat, and I've been writing a verse, you know what I'm saying? I had did the first verse, you know what I'm saying? I was thinking, you know what I'm saying "Man, what the Hell this hook gon' motherf**ing be?" You know what I'm saying I couldn't come up with it, you know what I'm saying So my, me and my President, Born Immac, you know what I'm saying We, goddamn, you know, he heard the, uh Me saying "I'm the man" inside my verse And he chopped that motherf**er up and put that, like, "I'm the man", you know? And then, you know what I'm saying, like n***as in the street, like, coming up to me like "Damn, Lo, man. We know you live that sh** for real, man We don't know nothing about home or other n***as, you know what I'm saying? We don't know nothing about them n***as, man, you know what I'm saying? We wanna, you know what I'm saying, we wanna hear you" I said, man, I swear I thought that sh** was luck And next thing you know, I just start vibing And doing more songs and more songs And sh**, everybody said, "sh**, boy. You the one, Lo You just don't know it, you're the one"
