I called every day to see how she was doin,
Every time that I called her, it seemed somethin was brewin.
I called her on my dime, picked up, and then I called again,

‘Oh, he’s just a friend.’

Blahzay-blah, you know who you are:
The red, black and green, the sun, moon and star.
Knowledge of self is being taught here on after,

No-frill rappers: you will evaporate, disintegrate, deflate to your fate,
as the great will dominate straight to the state
Of reignin’, gainin’…So put Kane in
That category. Period. End of story.

Your girl puckers her lips, so I stuck her.

Popularity don’t last long, I’m in it for classics,
Cause the other side of the biz is fake and it’s plastic.
