|
Who's the man (you better recognize) |
|
[Verse One: Ed Lover] |
|
POOOW! Look who stepped up the back kid |
|
Not Michael Jackson or the Ol' Dirty Bastard |
|
Drinkin' that Shaolin tank slang I'm blastin' |
|
The way a record but still kept the plastic |
|
Hurry up, with styles that I've mastered |
|
Lyin' gives me pleasure so therefore I'm fastin' |
|
OOOH NO just can't help |
|
So heyyea heyyea heyyea ho! |
|
Ya catch the flow, too late I let it go |
|
If ya didn't already, act like ya know |
|
Five knuckle sandwich from five guys named Moe |
|
Peace, arrivederci, I'm out the door |
|
But before I go please say I'm your choice |
|
My AT & T but your truuuue voice |
|
Check it out I'm on Mista Dennis |
|
Row row my boat through the channels of Vene |
|
ZWAYLA! Hey Poppa the saila |
|
To cure, to cure, I'm diggin that Layla |
|
Hathaway, can we get away pretty |
|
Run a hundred miles as if my name was Speedy |
|
Gon-zalez, peace out to Harlem |
|
I'm outta here, uh |
|
You suckers get demolished |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
Who's the man [x5] |
|

|
Who's the man (I believe that's me) |
|
Who's the man (well let your S-T-Y-L-E go free) |
|
[Verse Two: King Just] |
|
Yo I'm the man, who made me the man that I am? |
|
What motherfucking part you ain't understandin'? |
|
I slam tracks like King Kong Bundy |
|
I wrestle alligators like Crocodile Dundee |
|
Girls want me, but I ain't got no time for the drama |
|
Fuck them bitches, I'm the man slash comma |
|
The horror got my back, and then Dre put me on the track |
|
And now it's on like that |
|
I react, like the Juice I get loose |
|
Like one-fifty-one proof, I send a mutha off this roof |
|
Poof presto chango, rearrange ya |
|
Straight from the mental of the Shaolin's temple demented |
|
45 King put the swing in the thing |
|
And now I sound like a motherfucking diamond ring |
|
Swing, just like Tarzan |
|
(Buh dah buh dah) I'm the motherfucking man |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Verse Three: Todd One] |
|
Can I be the man, can I be the man, can I be the man? |
|
Yes I can, yes I can, yes I can can |
|
It's Todd ONE! Y'all know my stylo |
|
Sittin' in the back smokin' uh, shootin C-Lo |
|
Tryin' ta make a buck, tryin' to get some butt |
|
Time to push your luck |
|
Betta pecka women, all y'all get stuck |
|
And I'm dippin', messin' with them bitches |
|
Cause you know and I know that they out to get them riches |
|
But I be chillin' G, just like a villain B |
|
So when I rip it I be gettin' top billin', see |
|
All that other shit is deaf and mute |
|
Because you can't be the man if you ain't got loot |
|
Gettin' money is the routine, I'm on a loot scheme |
|
Gotta get the dough, get the dough, that's my new theme |
|
Todd One's little niggas got flavour |
|
If I ain't the man, then the man is my neighbour |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Verse Four: Notorious B.I.G.] |
|
What's up y'all, whatcha gotta say |
|
Big smoke chronic all day, all day |
|
Split MC's that's a lesson like George Jefferson |
|
Wheezy tried to skeez me, couldn't please me |
|
Floor inch nex, through Detective Ralph's neck |
|
Cause he kept on beggin' for shit |
|
Now Big keep on wreckin' the shit |
|
And the chronic (cough) got a nigga (cough) rockin' shit |
|
Castratin' like that Bobbitt bitch |
|
And if ya don't know, now ya know my flow |
|
Y'all pick like an Afro, wet like soooo blo |
|
Toe to toe niggas can't match |
|
Bullets all catch up in your necks and your backs |
|
So Little Ceeese, pass the lot please |
|
Give honey a pillow, she ain't got the scuffed up knees |
|
I'm the killa, no one gets illa |
|
Who's the man? I see him every morning in the mirror, uh |
|
[Chorus] |
