Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm your mama, I'm your daddy
I'm that **** in the alley
I'm your doctor, when in need
Want some coke? Have some weed
You know me, I'm your friend
Your main boy, thick and thin
[Verse 2]
I'm your pusherman
I'm your pusherman
[Verse 3]
Ain't I clean? Bad machine
Super cool, super mean
Feelin' good for the man
Superfly, here I stand
Secret stash, heavy bread
Baddest bitches in the bed
[Verse 4]
I'm your pusherman
I'm your pusherman
I'm your pusherman
[Verse 5]
Solid life of crime
A man of odd circumstance
A victim of ghetto demands
Feed me money for style
And I'll let you trip for a while
[Verse 6]
Insecure from the past
How long can a good thing last?
Woo-hoo, no
Got to be mellow, y'all
Gotta get mellow now
Pusherman getting mellow, y'all
[Verse 7]
Heavy mind, every sign
Makin' money all the time
My LD and just me
For all junkies to see
Ghetto prince is my thing
Making love's how I swing
[Verse 8]
I'm your pusherman
I'm your pusherman
[Verse 9]
Two bags, please, for a generous fee
Make your world what you want it to be
Got a woman I love desperately
Wanna give her something better than me
Been told I can't be nothing else
Just a hustler in spite of myself
[Verse 10]
I know I can break it, this life just don't make it
Lord, Lord, yeah
Got to get mellow now
Gotta be mellow, y'all
Got to get mellow now
[Verse 11]
I'm your mama, I'm your daddy
I'm that **** in the alley
I'm your doctor when in need
Want some coke? Have some weed
You know me, I'm your friend
Your main boy, thick and thin
[Verse 12]
I'm your pusherman
I'm your pusherman
[Verse 13]
I'm your pusherman
