Lyrics: 

Intro: Mase

Yo yo, this Mase, youknowhatI'msayin?
You got niggaz that don't like me for whatever reason
You got niggaz that don't wanna see me rich
You got niggaz that's mad, cause I'm always with they bitch
Then you got niggaz that just don't like me
You know, the, those P.H.D. niggaz
But you know I pop a lot of shit but I back it up though
see it's a difference, a lot of niggaz pop s**t
But a lot of niggaz don`t make hits
But it's like this whole Bad Boy s**t
we come to bring it to y`all niggaz, me, B.I., Puff, Lox, whoever
Black Rob
If you wanna dance, we dance

Verse One: Mase

Now trick what? Lace who? That ain`t what Mase do
Got a lot of girls that`d love to replace you
Tell you to your face Boo, not behind your back
Niggaz talk s**t, we never mind that
Funny, never find that, Puff a dime stack
Write hot s**t, and make a nigga say, `Rewind that`
Niggaz know, we go against the Harlem Jigalo
Getcha hoe, lick her low, make the bitch, hit the do`
I represent honies with money fly guys with gems
Drive with the tints that be thirty-five percent
Hoes hope I lay so I look both ways
Cop says, `OK, my tint smoke gray`
No way, nigga leave without handin me my s**t
Got plans to get my Land and my 6
Niggaz outta pen`ll understand this s**t
Pop champagne like I won a championship (uhh, uhh)

Chorus: sung by Notorious B.I.G.
spoken words by Puff

Been around the world and I I I
And we been playa hated [say what?]
I don`t know and I don`t know why
Why they want us faded [ahehe]
I don`t know why they hate us [yeah]
Is it our ladies? [uh-huh]
Or I drive Mercedes [uhh, uhh]-aca
