Shyne On
Baby Lyrics

Yeah , we gon go old school, ya know what I'm sayin'
We're going to do this in a classic, old school way

If you from where I'm from, ya know what I'm talkin' 'bout
People from my area will understand what I'm talking about

The way we do this here this is a cash money classic
This song is a classic from the Cash Money era

And I feel couldn't nobody do it the way I'ma do it
I believe that no one can do it the way I can

Ya know what I'm sayin' so, here we go world
So let's get to it, world

I'm bringin' it to your world from my world
I'm bringing my style to the world

Ya know what I'm talkin' 'bout look I say
As I said before, you know what I'm talking about

Get your shine on, get your shine on
Show off your success and your confidence

Get your shine on, so nigga stop hatin'
Don't hate on us, just focus on making yourself successful too

Get your shine on, you know we gonna make it
We're going to succeed and keep succeeding

In one you trust, the neighborhood is us
We trust each other in this community

And everything that I ride is 22s and up
Everything I ride/drive has 22 inch rims or bigger

And everytime that I slide, you know I'm platinum plus
Every time I'm seen, it's with the best of the best, representing success

Make the hood understand that we tryin' to come up
We're trying to achieve success and help others in the community do the same

24s on trucks, just the neighborhood lust
People in the community desire and want 24 inch rims on their trucks

Tell Lil' One, be cool everybody comin' up
Tell the young ones in the community to be patient, everyone will achieve success eventually

'Cause everybody wanna ride, everybody wanna shine
Everyone wants to be successful and show off that success

So how ya love that people? Everybody on the grind
This is the way it is, everyone is working hard to achieve success

And these projects cuts ya hood rich livin' lavish
Living in the projects may seem poverty stricken, but people are still able to achieve rich, lavish lifestyles

Those 14s, you know we had to have it
People wanted and had to have 14 inch rims on their cars/trucks

Once upon a time it was nothin' but madness
Life in the community was once very difficult and chaotic

Hustlin' right in front of my mama, Ms. Gladys
Doing illegal activities in front of family members

Chasin' paper, paper chasin', look that's all we know
We only know how to work hard to make money, and then use that money to achieve greater success

Comin' through the neighborhood on them 24s
Driving through the neighborhood showing off their 24 inch rims

Bet a thousand, shoot a thousand, nigga up it some more
Gambling and increasing bets as they go along

Fast money, cash money, that's all I know, one
I only know how to make and handle money quickly

They say, I walk around like I got an S on my chest
People say that I have a lot of confidence and swagger

That be that cash money piece, flow rest in the deck
It's the Cash Money lifestyle that gives me my confidence and ability to perform well

I'ma specially set, no testin' the best
I am unique and there is no one better than me to do what I'm doing

I'll be in class, no pencil, no test on the desk
I'm so good, I don't even need to study for tests and I don't use pencils

I'll make ya mouthpiece so beast like Delereese
I can make someone's voice and words have power and strength, like a character in a TV show (Delereese)

I'm from the south streets of beast like Lil' Weez
I come from the rough streets of the south, just like Lil Wayne

E, F, baby, for the team I rep daily
I represent the Cash Money team every day

I come to the defense like Champ Bailey, I'm gone wit it
I defend my team like a great football player (Champ Bailey) and I do it with confidence

A chrome kitted, a foam pit in the back of it
My car has custom chrome features and a foam pit in the trunk

Phony tittie bitches come home with me, get the business
Women with fake breasts come home with me and we engage in physical activity

I made bling bling, I'm like a lighthouse
I started the trend of wearing flashy jewelry and I shine like a lighthouse

So shut that ice in 'cause he ain't iced out
Don't try to compete with me, because you don't have expensive jewelry like I do

Pay attention closely, you niggaz can never roast me
Listen closely, because you'll never be able to insult or mock me

'Cause the maker of the testerosta knows me
Even the maker of the testosterone hormone knows who I am

Oh, he's so arrogant, the cocky kind
People describe me as being cocky and conceited

But you always looking 'cause I'ma shine, that's right
But people still look at me because I shine in all situations

Loud mics and big rims, nigga that's my life
My life consists of using microphones and driving cars with large rims

Comin' through the neighborhood with my homeboy price
Driving through my community with my friend Price

Let's get it understood, nigga that's my price
Everyone knows my price for services and performances

Come through the neck of the woods, you'll be alright
Come to our area and you'll be fine because we take care of our own

'Cause I'm pimpin', I'm pimpin', pimpin', I'm comin' through
I'm living the life of a pimp and I'm coming through the neighborhood

And I'm dippin', I'm dippin', dippin', them 22s
I'm driving through the streets while 'dipping' (bouncing up and down) with my 22 inch rims

And they spinnin', they spinnin' spinnin', them sprewells nigga
My rims are spinning around (due to the design of 'Sprewell' rims)

Them sprewells nigga, we makin' mail nigga
These Sprewell rims are helping us make money and become successful

Don't need no introduction in this
I don't need an introduction in this community, everyone knows me and what I represent

And I can grind in every ghetto, tryin' to stay hood rich
I can survive and succeed in any tough area, while still representing my roots

You can ask a nigga 'bout me, you know I'm 'bout my shit
If you ask people about me, they'll tell you that I'm committed to my work and success

I was made by guerillas, raised the hot boy click
I come from a group of strong, tough men known as the Hot Boy Click

'Cause I'm 'The Birdman' and I'll do you something bad
I'm 'The Birdman' and you don't want to mess with me

Have you heard man that I been slangin' them slacks
Have you heard that I've been selling a lot of drugs?

That's my word man, I won't stunt nigga
I'm serious, I'm not lying

I gonna stunt nigga, I'm gonna stunt nigga, one
I'm going to brag and show off my success

Get your shine on, you know we gonna make, one
Show off your success and confidence, because we're all going to succeed

So nigga stop hatin', you know we gonna make it
Don't hate on us, because we're all going to be successful eventually.
