[Intro]

Uh, check it out now

Uh, no doubt now

Uh, yo, check it out now

Uh, no doubt, yo


[Verse 1]

Special girl, real good girl

Biggest thing in my itty bitty world

Called her up and she made me feel right

Wish the bliss could never take flight

Sittin' back with this mic in my hand

Spittin' hot shit, tryin' to see grand

Imprinted on my mind every minute

Make my plans and you always in it, yo


[Chorus]

Uh, such a vivrant thing

Vivrant thing, a vivrant thing


[Verse 2]

And even though we both fly

Give each other space and not the evil eye

Actin' like grown ups

Don't even try to hide 'cause the spot blown up

Girlfriend tellin' you she wanna see

I say "I dunno," but you say "Gladly"

And when we both do hemp

We go on and on and on and on and on and

Sweeter than Ben & Jerry

Can I rhyme? Well, you know I gets mine

Sittin' round in my Abstract car

This Abstract thing goin' Abstract far, yo


[Chorus]

Uh, such a vivrant thing

Vivrant thing, a vivrant thing

Yo, such a vivrant thing

Vivrant thing, a vivrant thing


[Bridge]

Look at you, look at me (Check it, yo, check it, huh)

Look at you, and look at me (Yo, check it, uh, yo)

Yo.. such a vivrant thing

Vivrant thing, a vivrant thing

Look at you, look at me (Yo, check it, yo, check it)

Look at you, look at me (Yo, check it, yo, yo, yo)

Yo, such a vivrant thing

Vivrant, uh, uh-uh, uh


[Verse 3]

Gettin' back to my MC status

All the Willie that I kick make the other niggas mad, its–

Movin' to yo' town and situation

Shorty thought she subtle but she really was blatant, when she–

Shook her thing and violated

Now these wolf-like thoughts are formulated

I'm saying though, is there some heartfelt shit in here?

"Am I a strong black nigga?" Well shit, yeah

Plus we can hold a convo

Or go to the movies, my crib – whatever, yo

Just wanna see you by my side

We on 95, know the stash is in the ride

A rapping nigga for real

You would find me in a cypher if I didn't cop a deal

Rap slate like big weight

You buy, I sell, we split big cake


[Chorus]

Uh, uh, just move your little thing

Move it around and shake your little thing, uh-uh

Yo, such a vivrant thing

Vivrant thing, a vivrant thing

Uh, yo, you such a vivrant thing

Vivrant thing, a vivrant thing, yo

Uh, such a vivrant thing

Vivrant thing, a vivrant thing, uh

Vivrant thing, a vivrant thing, uh

Vivrant thing, ah out, yo, uh-uh

Yo
