Young, Rich And Dangerous

(album: Young, Rich & Dangerous - 1996)

[Mac Daddy]
I was thirteen, first on the block, making niggas jock
Cuz before me you never saw a shorty rock (rock)
My life did a three-sixty
Girls that didn't like me in class all of a sudden wanna fix me
(Uhh)
I went from waking up early catching a bus
To waking up late sitting in something more plush
Now no longer am I in a class full of kids
I got a one on one, thought I was a day at the crib
Everyday was different I didn't quit (didn't quit)
I got four twenty-S and didn't have a permit
Now I was (Rich as I was rich)
I had whatever would please me
A Benz, half a million dollar house easy (And who loud)
I got the top of the world, brauds making house calls
Doing things to me you would'nt believe, y'all
Cuz I'm this, I'm that, I'm steady shaking the spot
In the position where I can't be stopped (I'm)

Young (Young), Rich (Rich), Dangerous
(I hear voices sayin')
The world is yours, nigga, get it now
Get in the game, do yo' thing
and don't stop until it's locked down

Young (Young), Rich (Rich), Dangerous
(I hear voices sayin')
The world is yours, nigga, get it now
Get in the game, do yo' thing
and don't stop until it's locked down

[Daddy Mac]
(Well I'm) Sitting on top of the world
Going from coast to coast
Plushed out pre-votes doing more than most...
Niggas do in their own lifetime
See, since I was twelve a little shorty I've been getting mine
Not halfway, almost there in between
I'm talking 'bout this little nigga getting cream
Fulfilling dreams, making a name for myself
Steady doing things, learning the game getting wealth
I went from sitting in the front to riding in the rear (yeah)
I got a five-bedroom yacht sitting in Lake Le Neer
That's where, me and my crew discuss
Different ways for us to maintain in this game
And keep on kicking up dust
Sold out shows, magazine covers (lock down)
Making it easier for other little shorties to rock now
It's like this (uh-huh), that's how it be (say what)
You can't predict the future without mentioning me
(Cuz I'm)

Young (Young), Rich (Rich), Dangerous
(I hear voices sayin')
The world is yours, nigga, get it now
Get in the game, do yo' thing
and don't stop until it's locked down
Young (Young), Rich (Rich), Dangerous
(I hear voices sayin')
The world is yours, nigga, get it now
Get in the game, do yo' thing
and don't stop until it's locked down

[Daddy Mac & Mac Daddy]
Now my first name is Chris...A.K.A....Lenny ...with plenty
A millionaire before I reach the age of twenty
I'm surround by a crew of niggas living the same
Young (young) rich and dangerous and wear anything
Earrings, rings, watches full of ice, hell-a-merchandise
Hellicopter flights to little places called "Paradise"
Where I'm srrounded by three or four women
Poolside drinking them drinks with the umbrella in 'em
I got the money and the power living it grand
In this position I could hold the whole world in my hands
Shot calling, big balling, deal making I'm wanted
For then they think this is nigga here I got it all in
I'm just getting started and I'm deep like this
Oh, I'm destined to be the next Berry Gordy of this business
Cuz I'm this, I'm that, I'm steady shaking the spot
In the position where I can't be stopped (I'm)

[Big Rube]
Young enough to make mistakes
Exposed to all forms of good and bad,
The choices of many are the right choices of few,
Rich enough to make mistakes in a catastrophe
It won't stop wit dollars.
I'm known by millions,
Rich with knowledge and that power is dangerous,
That's where your fear starts,
You trying to come froom your poacket instead of your heart.
True youths come from within,
The only rich man is the one who knows the true value
of life and death, danger is present when countenance is absent.
Let your mind be the key to unlocking the beauty in your heart
and Godliness in your soul,
Live in it or rest in it, I'm gone

The world is yours, nigga, get it now
Get in the game, do yo' thing
and don't stop until it's locked down

Young (Young), Rich (Rich), Dangerous

Get in the game, do yo' thing
and don't stop until it's locked down
