La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la (uh)

Sittin' in a Caddy, right like Betty
Floatin' up the isle like the bride and her daddy
Hip-hop addict, hip-hop addict
Man I swear I'm on top like the attic
Yeah, bitch, I be with my dog like Shaggy
And we stay clean but we get dirty like Harry
Flyer than blue birds, cardinals and canaries
Fuck me, I'm all about "we" like Paris

I'm richer than Nicole and I'm a lion like her Daddy
I am hotter than the sun, day after Saturday
I swear I'm a savage like Lil' Webbie and Randy
Oscar De la Hoya, box you like a casket
Or Diego Coralles, nigga, keep jabbin'
See, my style it varies like drugs in an alley
My leather so soft, my paint prettier than Halle
Wittier than comedy, nigga, write a parody
But I ain't tellin' jokes, apparently
A parent, yeah, my daughter be the twinkle of my eye
You hurt her, you kill me, and nigga, I ain't 'bout to die
See y'all are at ground and my daughter is my sky
I swear I look in her face and I just want to break out and fly
Four tears in my face and you ain't never heard me cry

And when I'm in Detroit, I be ballin' like a Piston
Oh, and did I mention, I'm fly like a pigeon (okay)
Higher than gas prices and Las Vegas trickin'
I'm nine under par in a Bentley golf cart (huh)
The Polo be cream but the Prada's caviar (yeah)
Weezy, I'm sick (sick) from all this tourin' (ha)

Yeah, and I vowed to never trust another woman
In my life (life), and then I got horny (haha)

And sprinkle diamonds all over niggas, flawless and D-Class (huh, ha)

And zoom in with them cameras like I'm dickin' down Halle Berry (uh-huh)
My money help me do things that you niggas can't believe
Like purchase purses, places or them things that you can't conceive (huh, uh-huh)
Like interactin' with women the caliber of Janet (ha)
I sit and master my vision and massacre the planet (whoa)
I hope you niggas know just what it is
While I'm countin' my paper (ha), niggas know I'm handlin' my biz (okay)
