Let's Get It On
Tupac & Notorious B.I.G. Lyrics

Yea this is uh Super funk you know what I'm sayin
This is a really funky song.

This is for all the players and playetts wherever you at you dig
This song is for all the players and playettes out there, no matter where you're at.

I'm talkin about from this side to that side
I mean every side - east, west, yours, mine - it doesn't matter.

It's all about being funky man
The key thing is to be funky.

Aiyyo give me that microphone
Hey, give me the microphone.

It's Heavy D the baritone and I'm home alone dig it
This is Heavy D the baritone and I'm all by myself.

and I'm always staying freshly dipped on 1-2-5th
I always stay fresh dressed when I'm on 125th Street in Harlem.

where the dogs bark and the dreadlock be sparkin spliff
It's a neighborhood where dogs bark and Rastafarians smoke weed.

Okay okay okay okay it's Heavy D again
Alright, Alright, Alright, it's Heavy D again.

Hallelujah I'm on your T.V. screen again
Thank God, I'm back on your TV screen again.

You see me on your MTV and on your BET
You can see me on MTV and BET.

and on your local focal point video show
And on your local video show.

Nigga this how it flow so fly like an eagle
This is how I flow, and it's smooth like an eagle soaring through the sky.

No sequels no weed but I get love from all the thugs
I don't need to make any sequels or smoke weed, but I still get love from all the tough guys.

cause they still my people
Because they're still my friends.

I'm dynamic punks panic when they see me
I'm charismatic, and punks get scared when they see me.

They get all shook up when my mic's hooked up
They get scared when I'm on the microphone.

Untouchables at your door
The Untouchable gang is at your door.

(Let's get it on)
(Let's get it on).

All you wack rappers hit the floor
All the bad rappers need to get on the floor.

How should I plead forever thuggin on a quest to get G's
How should I plead when I'm always out here trying to get money?

Runnin from enemies ever since the days of a seed
I've been running from enemies since I was a little kid.

I'm under pressure the stress will have me drinkin
I'm under a lot of pressure and it makes me want to drink alcohol.

thinkin niggaz after me much too paranoid to blink
I'm always worried that someone is going to come after me, so I can't even close my eyes.

Wonder why the police don't want to see me stackin G's
I don't know why the police don't like it when I'm making money.

They after a playa but I won't let em capture me
The cops are looking for me, but I won't let them catch me.

I gotta thank the lord for the weed and the nicotine
I have to thank God for weed and cigarettes.

I can't sleep close my eyes I see wicked deams (deamons)
I can't sleep because I have terrible nightmares about demons.

I keep my pistol by my bedside one in the chamber
I keep a gun by my bed, and there's already a bullet in the chamber.

Preoccupied with homocide my life's in danger
I'm always thinking about killing somebody, and my life is always in danger.

Rollin down the four-five beware of stangers
When I'm driving down 45th Street, I have to be careful of strangers.

Hand on my 4-5 that's what the fame does
I always have my gun with me now because I'm famous.

I'm probably wrong but I'll never know it till I'm gone
I might be doing the wrong thing, but I'll never realize it until I'm dead and gone.

From out the ghetto where the jealous motherfuckers roam
I'm from the ghetto, where there are a lot of jealous people.

Pass the weed let that Hennessey get to me
Give me some weed and Hennessy to drink.

before the penitentiary
Before I have to go to prison.

I thought you knew I stay true to this rhyme thing I do
I thought you knew that I'm always true to the art of rapping.

I have all the honeys saying, "Go Pu'!"
All the girls love me and tell me to keep going.

I flip a style from the projects building 70 apartment 6C
I come up with my raps while I'm in my apartment in the projects.

I turn food stamps to green stamps rough power amps
I make the best of what I have, and I've even turned food stamps into money.

and sold weed under corner lamps but now I'm just microphone talkin
I used to sell drugs, but now I'm just rapping on the microphone.

So when you see my ass have my cash or just keep walking
If you see me, you better have money for me or you should just walk away.

Niggaz got more game than Genesis
There are guys out there who are really good at getting women.

Seen a movie in L.A. now everybody want to see
I saw a movie in Los Angeles that everyone else wants to see now.

but them youth don't trouble we
But the young people don't bother us.

because they fall victim to what they see hey!
Because they're influenced too easily by what they see.

I keeps it +Reel to Reel+ like my last album title song
I'm always truthful in my raps, just like my last album's title song.

but I understand it takes a year for niggaz to catch on
But I know it takes a while for people to understand what I'm doing.

(hit em in the head dog) So let's get it on! yea
So let's start the music and get started! Yeah!

Split the dutches fill it with the skunk we about to
Let's roll a blunt with some strong weed.

get wicked in the joint uh Notorious is glorious
We're going to have a great time together smoking this weed. I am the amazing Notorious B.I.G.

(cough, cough)*
(cough, cough)*

Niggaz now who's the mind blower, the weed grower
Now you know who's the best at smoking weed and growing it.

Have you seeing doubles like Noah, the rhyme flower
I can make you feel like you're seeing double, just like the biblical character Noah. I'm also really good at rapping.

B.I.G. top notch with the glock check your pockets
I'm the best with a gun. Check your pockets - I might take your money.

and your sock it's just the way my pops taught me
My dad taught me to always check people's pockets and socks for money.

When you throw the drop check em thoroughly
When you see someone fall to the ground, make sure you check them for money.

The bastard might spin around and try to bury me
The person who falls to the ground might try to attack me.

And dead niggaz don't make no moves
Dead people can't do anything.

When I'm slingin in the hood I don't fake no moves aight
When I'm selling drugs in the neighborhood, I don't make any fake moves.

Reminiscin on my swingin days
I'm thinking back to the days when I used to go out and have a good time.

when I drove a Caddy and my bitch sported finger waves
When I was driving a Cadillac and my girlfriend had finger waves in her hair.

Yea she had the Gucci boots I had Sarducci suits
She had Gucci boots, and I had suits from the designer Sarducci.

Oshkosh-begosh Coca-Cola lookin real cute
She looked cute wearing OshKosh B'Gosh clothes and a Coca-Cola shirt.

Junior M.A.F.I.A. representin Bucktown
The Junior M.A.F.I.A. crew is representing Bucktown (Brooklyn).

Mac-11 cocked back niggaz better duck down
I have a gun (a Mac-11), and anyone who is standing needs to duck down.

Face down you know the routine the cream
If I tell someone to get face down (on the ground), they know that means to give me money.

Earrings you know the drama Biggie bring
If I see someone wearing earrings, I know that could mean there's going to be trouble.

Let's get it on
Let's do it.
