Who Am I
Snoop Dogg feat. Nancy Fletcher Lyrics

Ey, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Introducing the song with enthusiasm

Tha Dogg Pound's in the house (the bomb)
Acknowledging the performers of the song and expressing a positive attitude

Snoop Doggy Dogg (the bomb)
Acknowledging the artist's own great performance

Snoop Doggy Dogg (Dogg)
Addressing himself by his nickname

From the depths of the sea, back to the block
Starting to describe his journey with a simile

Snoop Doggy Dogg, funky as the, the, The D.O.C.
Describing himself as funky like another artist

Went solo on that ass, but it's still the same
Describing his solo career but staying true to his roots

Long Beach is the spot where I served my 'caine
Explaining where he used to sell illegal drugs

Follow me, follow me, follow me, follow me, but don't lose your grip
Encouraging the audience to stick with him, but cautioning against getting too caught up in the lifestyle

Nine-trizzay's the yizzear for me to fuck up shit
Stating that he's planning to cause some trouble this year

So I ain't holdin' nothin' back
Not holding back in his music

And motherfucker I got five on the twenty sack
Referencing a drug deal and boasting about his wealth

It's like that and as a matter of fact (rat-tat-tat-tat)
Asserting his own confidence

'Cause I never hesitate to put a nigga on his back
Promising to use violence if necessary

Yeah, so peep out the manuscript
Encouraging people to take a closer look at his lyrics

You see that it's a must we drop gangsta shit
Asserting that gangster music is a necessity

What's my motherfuckin' name?
Asking the audience to identify him by his name

It's the bow to the wow, creepin' and crawlin'
Describing his own smooth style

Yiggy yes y'allin', Snoop Doggy Dogg in
Reciting a catchy phrase and identifying himself

The motherfuckin' house like every day
Stating that he's always around

Droppin' shit with my nigga mister Dr. Dre
Collaborating with another artist

Like I said, niggas can't fuck with this
Asserting his own dominance in the music industry

And niggas can't fuck with that
Saying that his collaborators are also untouchable

Shit that I drop 'cause you know it don't stop
Producing music without pause

Mister One Eight Seven on a motherfuckin' cop
Rapping about killing a police officer

Tic-toc, never the Glock, just some nuts and a cock
Refusing to use guns, instead using his own strength

Robbin' motherfuckers, then I kill them bloodclaats
Bringing violence to the people he robs

And I step through the fog and I creep through the smog
Describing the act of moving through Los Angeles

'Cause I'm Snoop Doggy (who?) Doggy (what?) Doggy (Dogg)
Asserting his name again with a catchy phrase

Now just throw your hands in the motherfuckin' air
Encouraging the audience to get involved physically

And wave the motherfuckers like ya just don't care (Dogg)
Encouraging even more physicality and calling himself by his nickname

Yeah, roll up the dank and pour the drank
Promoting drug and alcohol use

And watch your step (why?) 'Cause Doggy's on the gank
Warning others to be careful because he's on the lookout

My bankroll's on swole
Describing his wealth

My shit's on hit, legit, now I'm on parole, stroll
Saying that he's successful and now free from legal trouble

With Tha Dogg Pound right behind me
Having backup from his friends and collaborators

And up in your bitch, is where ya might find me
Insinuating that he's not just a musician, but gets involved with women too

Layin' that, playin' that G Thang
Describing his own sensual style of lovemaking

She want the nigga with the biggest nuts, and guess what?
Boasting about his own anatomy and his ability to attract women

He is I, and I am him, slim with the tilted brim
Identifying himself as the attractive man previously mentioned

Snoop Doggy Dogg (the bomb)
Asserting his own greatness again

Da-da-da-da-da, do-do-do-do-do-do
Singing a catchy phrase

Da-da (the bomb)
Repeating the phrase

Doggy Dogg, Doggy Dogg, Doggy Dogg (the bomb)
Repeating his own name and asserting his greatness yet again

(Bow, wow, wow, yippy-yo) (the bomb)
Adding another catchy vocalization

What is his name? (Dogg)
Rhetorically asking the question to hype up the crowd

Snoop Dogg and the Dogg Pound (Dogg) (the bomb)
Acknowledging his collaborators and their greatness

Oh, yeah, Snoopy Dogg, Snoopy Dogg
Addressing himself by a playful nickname

Snoopy Dogg (the bomb)
Asserting his own greatness

Yeah, yeah (Dogg), I know his name
Responding to the earlier rhetorical question

Come on Snoopy, come on Snoopy (the bomb)
Encouraging himself in another playful way

And Tha Dogg Pound
Acknowledging his collaborators again

Snoopy Dogg (the bomb), Snoopy Dogg
Repeating the playful nickname with assertiveness

Snoopy Dogg (Dogg, Dogg)
Repeating the playful nickname and his own name again

(Nasty Dogg, Doggy Dogg)
Adding another playful nickname and repeating his own name again
