1, 2, 1, 2
Yeh why'all can hear me
Make the drumming sound yeh
Lets ride yeh yeh
Be clear we here lights out
Eat here sleep here my house
Rhyme wasting time wasting

Feds want me caged in
Hope they got patience
More you win they want you to lose
I don't floss no more I drop jewels
Hope we might chill the heights real
Still we got fire that will melt your ice grill
Know the deal once we hit record
Hit the floor
New era this is war
Lord I'm the answer without a question
No evidence no possession
Stop stressing
Shit I got moves to make
Streets is dark but still I illuminate nigga
I could see the way
Till I see the end to me and BIG meet again yeh

[Mark Curry]
Curry going hit again
Dreams your living in
This what you coulda been
Every city foot scene gets scrilla with em
Kid shortchange the dealer
The game be gorilla
Ain't nothing illa
Aka 800 toll free aside
I rose to be a Bad Boy til' I die
The official bonafide (fide)
Tested and tried (tried)
Get in like Canson
Work from the inside
When I ride eyes are wide
Ain't that I lick when I walk
My some pimping to my stride
Some wit a emphis on my side
Cause I understand niggas out to get I
Living the life
Is no lie
Been a great thing to do
Nuttin I could think change the view
Although it might seem strange to you
Its plain to me
I'm here with you
Lets give them what they came to see

[Big Azz Ko]
Yow yow aiiyo
We exceptional
Congressional
Its best that you bester crew
Wit your flesh going bruise
Blood goin ooze and
However you choose your ass goin lose
This ain't the blues
Don't things that cruise
Go bring the news
Wit flows meaning cruel
From few options
To cruise hopping
Now fools plotting cause I chart topping
From bounce checks to being in effect (fect)
And it don't stop till they reinterbect
Rhyme calisthetics
Bad Boy anesthetics
Will twist me like crippie
Amanda Chevitts
Back flips tactics
Be on measure
Hat tricks wit only dimes and better
Nigga just for that cheddar
O please I switch cheese to leather

[Loon]
Uh yeh uh yeh uh
Check it out yo
Why'all niggas say what why'all want to say
Feel how why'all want to feel
Who give a fuck dog kill who you want to kill
Just keep it real when it come to me
'cause all my niggas in the slums kinda hungary
On my right where my gun going be
Bitches ain't getting a crumb from me
Member when niggas used to run from me
All of a sudden niggas names is buzzing
Nigga in the game got a little chain becuz
Heard the nigga signed a major budget
But I'm the nigga made you love
Now you want to change the subject
I ain't sweating that animosity
I'm deading that
Instead of rap imma smack you dead in your trap
I don't give a fuck what I said on a track
Niggas know me better than that
Niggas I could neva be wack
My money way to ahead of you cats
I'm going strait to the top where the cheddar be at
Wassup wit that
Yeh bad boy nigga
Fuck why'all want to do

[P. Diddy]
As why'all can see when have come to the end of our program
Very important that I let why'all know

For all your support
For everybody that's been down from day one
I love you
We love you
P. Diddy and the Bad Boy Family
We out

Aiiyo BIG we miss you

Overall Meaning

The song "The Last Song" by Big Azz Ko featuring P. Diddy, Mark Curry, and Loon is an ode to the hip-hop industry that highlights the struggles and challenges faced by rap stars. The lyrics are a testimony to the game's ruthlessness, the way it spits out the ones who can't keep up, and how they muster the strength to keep on trying despite the odds. The song's chorus is a farewell message, alluding to the fact that it may be the last song they ever record.

The first verse sung by P. Diddy speaks to the pressures of success and the sacrifices artists make to achieve it. He raps about how the feds want to see him fail and how he has to constantly shift his game to avoid getting caught. The refrain "more you win they want you to lose" is a testament to how success can be fleeting in the industry, with fans turning on a dime to punish those who fall from grace. P. Diddy talks about how he's not concerned about material goods anymore and how he's all about dropping knowledge in the lyrics.

The second verse featuring Mark Curry is a "what could have been" narrative, with the artist lamenting his past choices and reflecting on his journey. He talks about how he rose to fame as a Bad Boy insider and how he's been tried and tested to reach his current status. He builds on the first verse by speaking to the behind-the-scenes machinations of the recording industry, making it clear that it's all about who you know and how well-connected you are.

Overall, "The Last Song" is about the highs and lows of being a rap artist and how it's all about sacrifice, hard work, and talent. The chorus serves as a gentle reminder to fans and other artists that this may be the last time they hear from the ensemble, making it a touching swansong to the unique rhythm and lyrical stylings that have come to define the genre.
