Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yo, turn me up in the headphones
Like that?
Yeah
Bad boy
We ain't gon' stop
[Verse 2]
Now with Sean on the hot track
Melt like it's hot wax
Put it out, all the stores
Bet you could shop that
Leave a **** with a hot hat
Frontin' like bad boy ain't got tracks
Top that
This new gossip that young fly listener
Nickle nine licker
Floss, you die quicker
Big fast time, out of town, pie flipper
Turn crisp dollars to a crooked eye slipper
Everybody wanna be fast, see the cash
Play around they weak staff, get a heat rash
Anything a bad boy, away we smash
Introduce smash, bulletproof, we clash
I'm thorugh with bein' a player and a baller
Less run bad tricks, so I can spoil her
Makes one to be the one you respect
Even when you flex rock Versace silks
Over a steel v-neck
God dang, never sing so you suck my dudes
Clutch my Uz
Anything I touch, I bruise
Puff make his own noise
Queen stuck with ruse
Goodfellas, you know you can't touch those dudes
[Verse 3]
Don't push us
'Cause we're close to the edge
We're tryin' not to lose our heads
Get the feelin sometimes
Make me wonder why you wanna take us under
(Why you wanna take us under?)
I get the feelin' sometimes
That make me wonder why you wanna take us under
(Why you wanna take us under)
Can't nobody take my pride (Uh uh, uh uh)
Can't nobody hold me down
Oh no, I got to keep on moving
[Verse 4]
Broken glass everywhere
If it ain't about the money, Puff I just don't care
My necklace by the fly guys
Sometimes wise guys
Spend time in H-A-W-A-I-I
Mace can you please stop smokin' lala
Puff watch out, I'm a thug, I'ma die high
I be out in Jersey, puffin' Hershey
Brotha's ain't worthy to rock my derby
Though I'm never drug free
When I'm in the club, G
Boy, I know the thug be
Wantin' to slug me
Could it be I move
As smooth as Bugsy?
I be at the bar with too much bubbly
No, I think it must be
The girls wanna lush me
Or boys, the sympathy
The girls just love me
Brotha's wanna
Rock the Rolls
Rock the clothes
Rock the ice
Pull out glocks
Stop for life
I'm like, man, why these people got that trife?
Used to be my man, how you gon' plot on my wife
Do you think you snake me?
'Cause they hate me?
Or you gotta a PHD
Player Hatin' Degree
[Verse 5]
Don't push us
'Cause we're close to the edge
We're tryin' not to lose our heads
Haha ha ha
I get to feelin' sometimes
That make me wonder why you wanna take us under
(Why you wanna take us under?)
I get to feelin' sometimes
That make me wonder why you wanna take us under
(Why you wanna take us under?)
Can't nobody take my pride (Uh uh, uh uh)
Can't nobody hold me down
Oh no, I got to keep on moving
[Verse 6]
Quit that, uh huh
You a big cat
Where you chicks at?
Where you whips at?
Wherever you get stacks, I'ma fix that
Everything that's big dreams
I dig that
Don't knock me, 'cause you're borin'
I'm about to sail soarin'
Staight tourin'
Simply, a lot of men be wantin' to hate me
'Cause they words just don't offend me
You spare the cheese in the West Indies
Then come home to plenty
Cream Bentleys
You name it, I can claim it
Young, Black, and famous
Wit' money hangin' out the anus
And when you need a hit
Who you go and get?
Bet against us
Not a smart bet
We made kits, that'll rearrange your whole set
And got a Benz that I ain't even drove yet
[Verse 7]
Don't push us
'Cause we're close to the edge
We're tryin' not to lose our heads
Ha ha ha ha
I get to feelin' sometimes
That make me wonder why you wanna take us under
(Why you wanna take us under?)
I get to feelin' sometimes
That make me wonder why you wanna take us under
(Why you wanna take us under?)
Can't nobody take my pride (Uh uh, uh uh)
Can't nobody hold me down
Oh no, I got to keep on moving (Keep it moving)
Can't nobody take my pride (Uh uh, uh uh)
Can't nobody hold me down
Oh no, I got to keep on moving (Keep it moving)
[Verse 8]
Can't nobody take my pride (Uh uh, uh uh)
Can't nobody hold me down
Oh no, I got to keep on moving (Keep it moving)
Can't nobody take my pride (Uh uh, uh uh)
Can't nobody hold me down
Oh no, I got to keep on moving
