Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Uh-huh, yeah yeah
Duro, you gotta let it bump
Uh, uh, uh, like that, yeah
Come on, bring the chorus in
I'd risk everything
For one kiss, everything
Yes I'd do anything (Anything?)
Anything for you
[Verse 2]
I'd do a bid, loose a rib, bust a cap, trust in that
Run up to heaven doors, exchange my life for yours
Leave a steak out the door, mi casa su casa
Just remember to turn the lights off in the hall
My brother from another pop, minus one shot
We Nino and Gee Money, man, we all we got
From the stoop to the big dudes
Stoppin' us from playin' hoops
And us gettin' mad, throwin' rocks off the roof
[Verse 3]
Straight thuggin' man, I thought we would never progress
But look at us, man, we're young execs
My **** Dame, my **** Biggs, my **** Ty
My **** High, my **** Gotti
We embody all that's right with the world
No matter how pretty she is, you never liking my girl
That's how we run when you ain't around
I'll spank ya son, keep him in line
If you should die, I'll keep him like mine
God forbid, keep this in mind, my ****
[Verse 4]
I'd risk everything
For one kiss, everything
Yes I'd do anything (Anything?)
Anything for you
[Verse 5]
I'd risk everything
For one kiss, everything
Yes I'd do anything (Anything?)
Anything for you
[Verse 6]
I know momma, your little baby
But these streets raised me crazy
Product of my environment, nothing can save me
Thanks for lettin' me bloom, for your wisdom, for your womb
For the roof over my head, for my shoes, for my bed
For the most important lesson in life was when you said
"Strive for what you believe in, set goals and you can achieve them"
Thanks for the days you kept me breathin'
When my asthma was bad and my chest was wheezin'
Thanks for the look of love just as I was leavin'
On nights you thought I wouldn't come back, that left you grievin'
[Verse 7]
Thanks for holding down the household when times was bad
As a man, I apologize for my dad
When the rent was due, you would hustle like a pimp would do
That wasn't the life meant for you
You're a queen, you deserve the cream, everything that gleamed
Everything that shines, everything that's mine
[Verse 8]
I'd risk everything
For one kiss, everything
Yes I'd do anything (Anything?)
Anything for you
[Verse 9]
I'd risk everything
For one kiss, everything
Yes I'd do anything (Anything?)
Anything for you
[Verse 10]
Dear nephews, I'm writin' this with no pen or a pad
And I'm signin' it your uncle, your best friend, and your dad
Don't look back if you fall and you're feeling bad
I'm right there from your cut to when you peelin' the scab
If it comes a time when you ain't feelin' your real dad
Put my face on his body, don't wait for nobody
Don't follow no ****, that's ho shit man
Stand on your own two, do your shit man
[Verse 11]
The world is yours, some girls are nice, some girls are whores
Don't listen to your crew, do what works for you
Standing back from situations gives you the perfect view
You see the snakes in the grass and you wait on they ass
Bite your tongue for no one and whatever is said
Take it how they want, a closed mouth don't get fed
You know my number when it's code red
If you wrong my ****
You my nephew, fuck it, we get it on my lil ****
[Verse 12]
I'd risk everything
For one kiss, everything
Yes I'd do anything (Anything?)
Anything for you
[Verse 13]
I'd risk everything
For one kiss, everything
Yes I'd do anything (Anything?)
Anything for you
[Verse 14]
I'd risk everything
For one kiss, everything
Yes I'd do anything (Anything?)
Anything for you
[Verse 15]
I'd risk everything
For one kiss, everything
Yes I'd do anything (Anything?)
Anything for you
[Verse 16]
Roc-A-Fella
Ruff Ryders
Swizz Beats
It's almost over y'all
Jigga, how real is that?
Uh, uh, uh, lights out ****
[Verse 17]
(Jigga) What's my motherfuckin' name?
(Jigga) And who I'm rollin' with huh?
(My ****) uh-uh-uh-uh
**** better get it right, bitches better get it right
Who?
(Jigga) What's my motherfuckin' name?
(Jigga) And who I'm rollin' with huh?
(My ****) uh-uh-uh-uh
**** better get it right, bitches better get it right
[Verse 18]
Yeah, from the crap tables down in A.C.
Back on the block, Jay-Z motherfucker
From the, the, the Roc
Went solo on that ass but it's still the same
Brooklyn be the place where I serve them thangs
B., my **** was strugglin', to the 'burbs they came
And then we got to hustlin', murderin' things
I dipped in my stash, splurged on a chain
Now I'm Titanic, Iceberg's the name
Leave players on injured reserve, hurt the game
The best way to describe me in a word, insane
I dick down chicks all emerged in my fame
Jigga been dope since Slick Rick's first chain
The God, send you back to the earth from which you came
I'm baking soda, water, fire, merged with 'caine
Ladies don't know me, said, "I heard he's vain"
Well guess what, mami? I heard the same
You heard the name
[Verse 19]
(Jigga) What's my motherfuckin' name?
(Jigga) And who I'm rollin' with huh?
(My ****) uh-uh-uh-uh
**** better get it right, bitches better get it right
Who?
[Verse 20]
(Jigga) What's my motherfuckin' name?
(Jigga) And who I'm rollin' with huh?
(My ****) uh-uh-uh-uh
**** better get it right, bitches better get it right
[Verse 21]
Yeah, uh, I got a license to kill, so I stare at the gat
Roc-A-Fella, Ruff Ryders, **** scared of that
Got a new motto this year, don't fuck with my ones
Knock on your door, three in the mornin'
It's just us and the guns
See, I scrambled with priests, hustle with nuns
I got the mind capacity of a young Butch Cassidy
**** get fly, let 'em defy gravity
.45 rapidly lift your chest cavity
[Verse 22]
Streets won't let me chill
Always been a clumsy ****, don't let me spill
Motherfuckers want to wet me still
I remain y'all
More than one, like five divided by four
Shit, this just the hate that's been provided by y'all
Reciprocated and multiplied by more
You likely to see Jigga in a widebody or
Drop-top Bentley Azure, holla at me y'all
[Verse 23]
(Jigga) What's my motherfuckin' name?
(Jigga) And who I'm rollin' with huh?
(My ****) uh-uh-uh-uh
**** better get it right, bitches better get it right
Who?
[Verse 24]
(Jigga) What's my motherfuckin' name?
(Jigga) And who I'm rollin' with huh?
(My ****) uh-uh-uh-uh
**** better get it right, bitches better get it right
[Verse 25]
I don't give a fuck if I sell one or one million but I think you should
'Cause if I only sold one, then out comes the hood
All black in the club, the outcome ain't good
Them **** act like wolves, how come? They could
'Cause we don't drop hits, we drop bombs that smash
Till the wrist is lit up, the arm look like glass
The necklace chipped up, the charm it flash
Could fuck up your eyes like the bombest hash
See the reason why chicks let me palm they ass
All I gotta do is let 'em call me Shawn de'Glass
Let 'em sit up in they whip till I launch it back
Snap they necks, then shoot 'em till they arch them back
The calmest cat, trust me when I palm this gat
Kill your mind, body and soul, push your conscience back
Monster's back and Flex drop a bomb to that
And e'rybody sing along to the track, c'mon
Uh-huh, uh, uh
[Verse 26]
(Jigga) What's my motherfuckin' name?
(Jigga) And who I'm rollin' with huh?
(My ****) uh-uh-uh-uh
**** better get it right, bitches better get it right
Who?
[Verse 27]
(Jigga) What's my motherfuckin' name?
(Jigga) And who I'm rollin' with huh?
(My ****) uh-uh-uh-uh
**** better get it right, bitches better get it right
Who?
[Verse 28]
(Jigga) What's my motherfuckin' name?
(Jigga) And who I'm rollin' with huh?
(My ****) uh-uh-uh-uh
**** better get it right, bitches better get it right
Who?
[Verse 29]
(Jigga) What's my motherfuckin' name?
(Jigga) And who I'm rollin' with huh?
(My ****) uh-uh-uh-uh
**** better get it right, bitches better get it right

[Verse 31]
Lights out ladies
Come here, baby, you drive me crazy
(Where all my baby thugs)
Don't want nobody but you, my baby
(And all my ladies sing)
Hold me tight and call me your lady
Make me scream your name
[Verse 32]
Come here, baby, you drive me crazy
(Where all my baby thugs)
Don't want nobody but you, my baby
(And all my ladies sing)
Hold me tight and call me your lady
(Yeah)
Make me scream your name
[Verse 33]
I took you out of Jacob's in clusters
Busters, they wanted to rush us
Love the way you sparkle when the sun touch ya
When you blush you turn blue if your grade is right
You can light up the whole room turning day from night
When the summertime is in and the tops are down
With you around my neck, we lock the whole block down
It took short sleeves and lounging to understand
The reason they call you ice, everybody freeze
[Verse 34]
Ain't a pendant in the sun who can shine like you
And that platinum in the charm, who can blind like you?
The direct reason why **** do the crimes they do
I used to snatch the necklace right off them reckless fools
Guess I was jealous that they was so next to you
So I devoted half my time to invest in you
The other half was spent on protecting you
'Cause you belong to me, now sing ya song for me
C'mon
[Verse 35]
Come here, baby, you drive me crazy
(Where all my baby thugs)
Don't want nobody but you, my baby
(And all my ladies sing)
Hold me tight and call me your lady
Make me scream your name
[Verse 36]
Come here, baby, you drive me crazy
(Where all my baby thugs)
Don't want nobody but you, my baby
(And all my ladies sing)
Hold me tight and call me your lady
Make me scream your name
[Verse 37]
I'm often with you, so they wonder 'bout the juice I got
I took from the projects and an abusive pops
From the bottom to the top, the skateboard to the drop
From the nada to the Prada, I got ya like I got ya
From the first time I put you 'round my neck and locked ya
It was then I knew, everywhere I went you'd follow
Soon I spent every dollar, you became my habit
Other brothers vice was smoke, mines was carats
The more checks I got, the more I laced my crew
The rocks got bigger, watch face got blue
Tricked a little bit, shit, I laced my boo
Fuck it, my mistress, I laced her too
Cop my jewels twice, like deja vu
If they ever met in the mall, it was over y'all
Just the way I do, and either way you win
I mean the thugs love ya when you're girl's best friend
[Verse 38]
Come here, baby, you drive me crazy
(Where all my baby thugs)
Don't want nobody but you, my baby
(And all my ladies sing)
Hold me tight and call me your lady
Make me scream your name
(And all my ladies sing)
[Verse 39]
Come here, baby, you drive me crazy
(Where all my baby thugs)
Don't want nobody but you, my baby
(And all my ladies sing)
Hold me tight and call me your lady
Make me scream your name
[Verse 40]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
In the wedding band you love, in the gold chain you thug
Sometimes you're given just because
And the tennis bracelet means they want relations
Know that they wanna fuck ,the only reason they give you up
In the hands of gold diggers, you never enough
Rings, things, just never enough
But me and you together gon' shine to the end
I mean the thugs love ya, but you're girl's best friend
[Verse 41]
Come here, baby, you drive me crazy
Don't want nobody but you, my baby
Hold me tight and call me your lady
Make me scream your name
[Verse 42]
Come here, baby, you drive me crazy
(Where all my baby thugs)
Don't want nobody but you, my baby
(And all my ladies sing)
Hold me tight and call me your lady
Make me scream your name
[Verse 43]
Come here, baby, you drive me crazy
(Where all my baby thugs)
Don't want nobody but you, my baby
(And all my ladies sing)
Hold me tight and call me your lady
Make me scream your name
[Verse 44]
Come here, baby, you drive me crazy
(Where all my baby thugs)
Don't want nobody but you, my baby
(And all my ladies sing)
Hold me tight and call me your lady
Make me scream your name
[Verse 45]
Come here, baby, you drive me crazy
(Where all my baby thugs)
Don't want nobody but you, my baby
(And all my ladies sing)
Hold me tight and call me your lady
Make me scream your name
[Verse 46]
Come here, baby, you drive me crazy
Don't want nobody but you, my baby
Hold me tight and call me your lady
Make me scream your name
