Act Right
Method Man Lyrics

Awww shit! Ya know the name
I am introducing myself with a confident attitude, letting everyone know who I am.

Who flip flows like chessboards, there go the games
I rhyme in a clever and strategic manner, just like how one plays chess.

I'm drugs to the brain
My music is so addictive and mesmerizing that it can be compared to a drug for the brain.

Even on the 14th of February I ain't got no love for Elaine
I don't care for anyone or anything, not even on Valentine's Day when love is supposed to be in the air.

Back doin' my thang, right
I am back to doing what I do best.

Livin' the fast life
I am living life on the edge and enjoying every moment of it.

Bitch grab a seat at the bar, get you some act right
Ladies, come join me at the bar and let loose a little by acting right and having fun.

If that don't do it then rock, lets bring it back like
If sitting at the bar isn't enough, let's turn up the party by going wild and bringing back the good times.

Ever since I came up, rappers done changed up
Since I became successful, other rappers have changed and tried to follow in my footsteps.

Put your walking shoes back on and step your game up
Other rappers need to put more effort into their music and improve their skills.

I'm getting through off the books, rock we banked up
I am making lots of money and growing rich, even though it may not always be documented.

y'all don't think my shit off the hook, then y'all can hang on
If you don't think my music is great, then you can just hold on and be left behind.

I'm like a king that's so fresh so clean
I am like royalty that is stylish and fresh, always looking clean and sharp.

I leave niggaz like black coffee, no cream
I leave others at a basic level like black coffee, without any extra flavor or enhancement.

Come inside the party fuck up the whole scene
I come to parties to completely transform the atmosphere and create a vibe.

[Chorus:] Get up get up, ya know what we came here for What up what up, get your asses out on the floor Come on come on, I've been away for far too long Guess who's back and far too strong for ya niggaz (now) We feelin' good tonight, we hittin' 'dro like We gettin money and gettin' honeys that flow like My mic, my clothes, my life, my dough That's right everybody get some act right
It's party time! We came to dance and have fun. I am feeling great and unstoppable, enjoying the moment and living the high life. It's time for everyone to act right and join in on the fun.

Ya damned if you do, ya damned if you don't
You are in trouble either way you go, so you might as well make a decision and deal with the consequences.

Step inside my Range and get blammed if you won't
If you don't step up and take action, then there will be repercussions and consequences.

My Clan in the joint, man we got it locked
My group of friends are all together and we have control over the situation.

Like whatever niggaz got in the bank, I got it stopped
I have so much power and control that I can stop whatever anyone else is doing, including their money-making.

Y'all already know of my strength already growin'
Everyone is aware of my growing power and influence.

And this game many may come but few are chosen
Many people may try to be successful in the music industry, but only a select few are truly chosen and make it big.

I don't usually do this, but keep the party going like
I may not usually promote certain actions, but in this case, let's keep the party going and have a great time.

I get tips from BIG and Pac when they blastin' the heat
I am influenced by legendary rappers such as Biggie and Tupac when it comes to making great music.

If you's a rapper, don't ever ride the passenger seat
If you are a rapper, don't just sit back and follow others. Take control and lead the way.

One to grow on When up shit's creek, you get your roll on
When things get tough, it's time to take charge and make things happen.

Boy I never stop, I go on, so on and so on
I never give up, I just keep going and pushing forward.

Rappers can't fuck with me
Other rappers cannot compete with my skills and talent.

My career's like somebody put glue in your chair and now your stuck with me
My career is so strong and captivating, that once people start listening to my music, they can't stop and are always hooked.

I don't use pick up lines, I guess I'm just picky
I don't need to use cheesy pick-up lines to impress women, I just have high standards.

Extra extra read all about it Who shits they grounded, flies all around it
Breaking news! The people who are acting fake and disingenuous are getting exposed and everyone is noticing.

My trees don't doubt it, they green as a salad
My marijuana plants are thriving and healthy, green and fresh as a salad.

All American Express I never leave home without it
I always carry my American Express card with me, never leaving home without it.

I'll never go pop, Meth Man I'm bout it
I will never sell out and go mainstream, I am committed to my style and my roots.

Whenever I rock, the jam's over crowded
Whenever I perform music, the venue is always packed and full of people.

I'm never gonna stop, the fans won't allow it
I will never stop making music, as my loyal fans won't let me.

Yo, get it you got it, if you got it then good
If you understand what I am saying and you are in agreement, then that's great.

There's a lot of rappers rappin' but not a lot of 'em could
Many people try to be rappers, but few truly have what it takes.

I'm that boy in the hood that told Red Riding Hood
I am like the boy in the fable, guiding others and leading the way.

There ain't nothin but wars in my neck of the woods
The area where I am from is filled with conflict and struggle.

So! Who's ready for MC Whoa
Are you ready for the great MC Method Man?

What's beef? Beef is what I got teeth for
I am not afraid of confrontation or conflict, and am willing to fight for what I believe in.

I eat up everything on my plate then eat yours like
I take on any challenge, consume it and then take on more.

Stand up! Staten Island, Lond Island get some act right Every borough, New Jersey get some act right Each state, west coast, east coast, dirty south, midwest get some act right If it ain't well, it ain't right If it ain't Meth, it ain't tight So on that note like this, everybody get some act right
Everyone, from all different areas and regions, needs to come together and act right. Things need to be done correctly, and it needs to be done with the skills and style of Method Man. So let's get to it and start acting right.
