Up In Here

(album: Doggy Bag - 2001)

[Jermaine Dupri:]
Yo
Yo
Yo
It's crazy
You hear that?
That's my man Bow Wow
And you know it's off the hook when we up in here
So So Def, let's go

[Bow Wow (Jermaine Dupri) {Both}:]
Microphone check, one, two
Ain't nobody coming like I'm coming when I come through (Uh)
So get ready, I'm the real deal
And you can see what I'm saying even if you're standing {two blocks away}
I'm from the CO and I won't {stop}
I'm only fourteen, making more than your pops
I'm saying, {you already know} what I'm about
If you don't, take cover 'cause the dog is out (Ruff)
You can either flee the scene, or keep your frown
Better yet, find something else to do 'til I die down
And that ain't happening no time soon (Why?)
'Cause I keep hitting y'all with the boom
It goes back to back, we the empire (Oh)
Get out the way or get burned by the fire (Yeah)
My plans ain't to stay in the racks
So run and tell your friends the phenomenon's {back}

[Bow Wow (Jermaine Dupri):]
Up in here (Uh)
I know you want me, want me, baby girl, here I am, come get me (Oh)
Up in here
Off the chain and you know that I brought Ohio with me, uh
Up in here
Now get loud, jump off in the crowd, let me see what you're all about (We crazy)
Up in here
Now this my world, and all I wanna do is see you let the dogs out (Ah)

[Tigah {Jermaine Dupri}:]
Oh, you thinking it's a game, huh?
Playboy, you gotta be a little more realistic and state your claim
When I say we off the chain
I'm talkin tigers and dogs, not puppy dogs, they can't run in the stands {That's right}
From Ohio to Lauderdale, we keep it crackalacking
I bust a corner on 22 and the jails and it ain't nothin you can tell 'em (Uh-uh)
'Cause we the future and the stakes is high, you got stocks, you better sell 'em
Man, I'm too legit to quit
In a half a year, I won't be nothing to lick with
Get it? Lick with (Ha)
Man, I'm talking dividends
Mercedes and Benz, trip to Saweto
Cuties in Switzerland and I still grip lows
You know that lil' black boy, when I come around, it's like a fashion show
With Lil Bow Wow (Hell yeah)
Of course, you know who I be
T-I-G-A-H and I make em say, "Ah", when I'm

[Bow Wow (Jermaine Dupri):]
Up in here (Oh)
I know you want me, want me, baby girl, here I am, come get me (Uh-oh)
Up in here (Yeah)
Off the chain and you know that I brought Ohio with me, uh (Yeah)
Up in here
Now get loud, jump off in the crowd, let me see what you're all about (Ha-ha, let me see)
Up in here
Now this my world, and all I wanna do is see you let the dogs out (Ruff)

[Bow Wow (Jermaine Dupri) {Both}:]
I'm doing too much (Uh-huh)
They call me young Walter Payton 'cause I come through the line untouched (Untouched)
Saying no matter what, I won't be your pop
If the dog lay on it, it's {going to the top}
I done changed the game
I got all the girls, even Lil' Kim screaming my name (Uh-oh)
You can fight it, fight it, and try not to like it
But you kids'll go crazy if they don't see me
I'm {So So Def} to the end (Uh)
Around here, we hit and do it over again (Over again)
How many of y'all can say that? (Huh?)
How many of y'all at fourteen were sitting back watching paper stacks? (Nobody)
It's a known fact that all the greats got started at this same age (I did)
I ain't trying to say that I'm the greatest yet, but I will say I'm going down that page, 'cause I'm

[Bow Wow (Jermaine Dupri):]
Up in here (Up in here, man)
I know you want me, want me, baby girl, here I am, come get me (Here I am)
Up in here (Yeah)
Off the chain and you know that I brought Ohio with me, uh
Up in here (Uh-huh)
Now get loud, jump off in the crowd, let me see what you're all about (Yo)
Up in here
Now this my world, and all I wanna do is see you let the dogs out (Let 'em out)
