Poppa Yo (Intro)

(album: Subject - 2003)

Ayo, Papi, yo
Huh?
I know you got that knowledge for us, man
Well, I done lived 70 years
Right
And then I ain't get there by being a fool
Right
I don't think
I mean, I'm telling you it's true, I don't want to lie to you, young guy because there—there—there is no point in lying
I figure if I can tell somebody to help 'em, I'll tell 'em
Now if you wanna listen, you listen, if you don't, go 'head on, take yo' knocks, and go 'head on
Man, I've been through some hell
Down the road and around
They—they are not going to find a woman that do everything that he want
I don't have time right now
See that?

Ooh, everybody up in the 3-1-3, won't you feel me
Ladies, grab your dresses if you want to
Shimmy shake your foot like you supposed to
Pop lock if you represent the city of the mota'
Hitsville — City of Motown
Errol Flynn if you represent the city of the mota'
(Place where) Headwrap chicks be drinking mocha
(Place where) Weaved rocked down to the shoulder
(That's right) Ohh, pop yo' fist if you represent the East Coast
Designer gear Prada like the most do
Pop yo' shizznit if you represent the West, fool (Yeah)
San Diego to Santa Cruz
Hot chicks from LA too
Texas on up to ATL
(What about) Back down south where the ladies swell
(What about) Florida with hurricane ladies
I'ma pop my collar 'cause I represent the Dwele
Got no choice but to rep that way
(Ooh) Pop yo' fist if you checking for the Dwele (Where you at?)
We checking for you in every way
(Ooh) Pop yo' neck if you loving what the beat do
(Ooh) Pop yo' fingers, ladies if you love the beat, too
(Ooh) Pop yo' ass if you shaking at the gent' bars
(Ooh) Poppa this in yo' deck (Ooh)

An—Andwele and one of this friends over here
They got a tape recorder on me, but it doesn't make any difference because I'm gon' talk shit anyhow, aha
