Y'all youngins don't y'all need to be sleep? Cause secretly I'm the n***a that you dreaming to be It ain't as easy as that It's only one Mos, leave it at that Whatever shine you had I'm leaving with that I give a fat baby's a** where your peoples is at And where your heaters is at You f** around and catch a leak in your back Get a hug dogg you need to relax Don't get beaten up cause of rap And don't get mad at me cause you're whack sh** genetics is the reason for that You ain't seeing me I'm seeing to that I'm from the brightest hardest star to ever be on the map And that's the B-R-O-double y'all don't want no trouble rest Mighty motherf**in Mos Def... like that
