[Intro (Hook): Samples/Scratches]

Cos' I’m a ma ma ma ma ma ma man (x8)

Now let me hear my man now


[Verse 1]

Now you can be a nineties girl

I'll be your man from the two thousands

Equipped with a third eye seeing through a human being

Enough wit to split with a park-load of people

That say that I'm legit

And I could come through in difficult situations

A champ with a style ya can’t cramp with ya time and date stamp

Doin' the homework, I gotcha like a home clerk

Twenty-four sev' all year with the smirk

X-P I design the deep high science for the mind

When the sun moon and stars align

Like a rhyme, bustin' off in the park with the iron

Was what I did chillin' with the sharks and the lions

But now I'm witchu honey and we got so

Intertwined in the mind that you seek Large Pro

When you venture through the streets, in ya crib, in ya job

When you ‘bout to go to sleep in ya intimate garb


[Hook: Sample/Scratches]

Cos' I'm a ma ma ma ma ma ma man (x8)

Now let me hear my man now


[Verse 2]

Silly me lookin’ for love in all the wrong places

The smiles on my pals that grew into long faces

Let’s back-track, how I held it down in all cases

The ancient

Tale of a kid who caught pink slips

Playin' the fool, payin’ them dues, obeyin' the rules

Of the streets since I came into it

With the drum machine stocked I was makin' the music

Like Biz, still tellin' the world how it is

On my block right down away from Chuck [mile?] block

Last stop on the seven train was the hotspot

You could find big celebrities in their cars parked

Under the terrace, boy wondered with flourish

With the knowhow

Here’s a update, here we go now

Same drum machine, same mic to the showdown

Vibe with the dope sound

Hip hop [king/came?] with the crown

Ever since [I was] a child

Yeah but now I'm a ma


[Hook: Samples/Scratches]

Cos' I'm a ma ma ma ma ma ma man (x8)

Now let me hear my man now


[Part 2/Beat Change]


[Intro: Sample/Scratches, Large Professor]

Cos I'm a ma ma ma ma ma (x4)

Yeah

Like I say no doubt

Check it out

Cos' this is what the fuck it's all about


[Verse 1]

A lot of people like to talk about “back in the days”

But I was never one to run with the pack and the craze

I mean it's cool to reminisce, but it's times like this

Make me think about the future, not times I miss

See I used to wile out in IS 237

My man Tony [?] put me on and we was revvin'

The motor up to blow

But I still had to grow, in the mind now

Nine years later down the line

Time to come out the closet -

Not the funny way, the get money way

Don't play, I'm makin' a deposit

If not a withdrawal

So you can save ya oral

Sex, as I cash cheques

You'll get ‘plexed


[Outro: Sample/Scratches]

Cos I'm a ma ma ma ma ma (x4)
