that's what say around the corner
if you know it like i know
you better stay around the corner
I don't know shit about no murder
i was way in California
with bun b ridin dirty
smoking purple all that morning
i don't know shit about no robbery
throwing the wrong charges on me
i was chillin wit yo wife
while you was flightin, an she was lonely
all that pussy azz shit you niggas offering
i don't want it
I don't want to hit yo weed
and i don't wanna be yo homie
man, let me make my cheese
get the j's to match my jeans
go post back up in my jeans
and let 'em go for 2 for 3
you around here saying my name
and claiming i ain't a beast
regardless of my fame
bitch i'll aim it up at yo cheek
before i was rhyming on a beat
i was grindin on the street
pussy ass nigga worrying bout me
click, clak

Say lil daddy, listen mind ya business
you just like one of these lil bitches, mind ya business
being nosey, you your sickening, mind ya business
ole police ass nigga, mind ya business
REPEAT 1
In Webbie's song "Mind Ya' Business", he directly addresses those in his community who gossip, spread rumors, and generally interfere in the lives of others. He opens the song with an exclamation about needing more food, which leads into a series of verses and a hook that emphasize minding your own business. Throughout the song, he points out specific instances where people have been talking behind his back about illegal activities such as murder and robbery, while he claims to have been doing other harmless things like smoking marijuana and spending time with a friend's wife. He also calls out people who claim he isn't a skilled rapper and threatens violence against those who disrespect him.
