[Intro: Ludacris sample]

I'm the MVP, I'm stupid with this rap shit!

[Hook: Ludacris w/ DJ Premier scratches]

"Here I am"

"I'm the man" "Word!"

'DTP's about that bomb shit!"

"LUDA!"

[Verse 1: Ludacris]

When Premier puts the needle on the record then I put it on blast

Your flow's garbage, I throw it in the trash

I'm the MVP, I'm stupid with this rap shit

Rewind the verse, make the track do a back flip

Your speakers poppin on a handstand

They sneak dissin niggas, throwin little jabs like Bam Bam

But I'm a bad man, they amateurs like at Apollo

I wipe em off the stage like Sandman

God damn man, what the hell you smokin on?

It's Ludacris, I got more cheese than provolone

And the chrome is home, so I'm never home alone

And only keep friends with two X chromosomes

So I command all these rappers, put the mic down

Throw a grenade in your mouth, nigga bite down!

Because I'm back with Premo on the track

Takin it to the essence, showin niggas how to rap

[Hook: Ludacris w/ DJ Premier scratches]

"Here I am"

"I'm the man" "Word!"

'DTP's about that bomb shit!"

"LUDA!"

[Verse 2]

Still hungry as the day I began, I heat the booth up so much

The engineer caught a muthafuckin tan

I'm the truth when it comes to it (true!)

I hold hip-hop for hostage, since 2000, I put a gun to it

And I run through it, like a Jamaican Bolt

And everyday's a vacation on Jamaican smoke

Cloud your whole block, talk shit and hear the fo' pop

One, two and it don't stop

And my delivery's invadin your vicinity

Hennessey is my remedy, taking shots like Kennedy

And I been a G for a long time

To these streets, I'm connected like I'm online

On time for whatever

And every time an album drop, I drop BIG like Voletta

I'm ahead of the competition, they wishin that I just fade off

My career for your life, let's trade off

[Hook: Ludacris w/ DJ Premier scratches]

"Here I am"

"I'm the man" "Word!"

'DTP's about that bomb shit!"

"LUDA!"

[Verse 3]

Eight years in the game, ain't a damn thang changed

So I brought it back to one of the tracks

Of where the damn thang came

And he goin down in history, cause he don't sleep

And he the first southern rapper on a Premo beat

I ate the kick and the snare, the samples always taste fine

And I shoot a hot 16 from the baseline

I'm on point like CP3

And I'll be goin down in rap as the MVP

[Hook: Ludacris w/ DJ Premier scratches]

"Here I am"

"I'm the man" "Word!"

'DTP's about that bomb shit!"

"LUDA!"
