Mad lion:
Oh someone go on like them ya born to find if I bought them
Born for prime star

You 'bout to say to yourselfwhat what

Oh some friend comewaityou been scammed
The thing that everone thought

Sandra "pepa" denton:
Queenhoney bee wannabes
They want to be in front of me
But it ain't no run in me
That's word to my son and me
Now you wanna be family cuz you see the grammies (yeah)
Playin' me closeask me where's my manhow's my man
Sandy be damned beI keeps the cheese handy
Got the trap for you rats come strapped with the gammy
Jealousy be swellin' meword
So I had to charge 'em at will
And leave a billlike bellamy
What are you tellin' me
Don't let me catch a felony
People trip outbring out the hell in me
But I stay paid in fullfaithfuland always grateful
Stay on guardpraise godpity the hateful
Mad lion:

Sandra "pepa" denton:
Friends to the end for the ends did ya favors
Damnwhy you wanna stick me for my papers
Cheryl "salt" james:
Would have gave you the world now you can't catch a crumb
How you bum-bum-bitty come so dumb-dumb
Remember when you was all bustedbroke downbeat up
Even kept you as a friend when you stole to stay steed-up
Wanna be down with my businesswe meet up
Schemin' like a demon on the couch with your feet up
Playin' like a summer may stain by far
Got mad I had the juice so you tried to take the jar

Queen latifah:
You smile in my face but all the while you wanna take my place
Put it on a paper chase and you can't keep my pace
You're jealous cuz I'm this shit and you ain't
Far as I'm concernedI don't know you from a can of paint (hey yowho you)
No time to worry about who likes mewho didn't invite me
Behind my back callin' me shystythat don't excite me
Backstabbers keepin' that he saidshe said runnin'
Always in my businessI leave when I see you comin' (yoI'm out)
See you got the game twistedI could care less
My house is bought and paid foryour rent's dueyou're stressed
Neverthelessyou wanna keep some drama on blast
But I don't worry cuz I'm quick to come and check that ass
Mad lion:
They're spine behind your face
But meantimethey wanna take your place
Those back-stabbersheyback-stabbers
Sandra "pepa" denton & cheryl "salt" james:
Check iteverybody sees you as preemy and teeny
You see me in 3-dand need me like a genie
All your wishes are washed up like lock up
We need to write a book called shit that botched up
One thing that sandi can't understand
The all the world jet but see a plentiful of hands
So tell mehow can we shake 'emfirmly you break 'em
Get 'em hotand bake 'emrun to miss 'emI may say
Chase me cuz I don't chase themchillin fact
Like friends we are family with a bill attatched
Pep's that green-eyed monstermake them ill and that
Well if envy ever tempt mesalt steer me back
Mad lion:
Said why you gotta be like thatuh
We make your moneybought you watch and my stacksuh
I know you wanna play the games we play
Only manfinds his car fade awayhey
Never nevernever should you get paper
Think you betterbetterget upget up this place
Some newshiton my tounge and lip
Only one timethenI will be done with itgo
Some will get with itsome will get wrecked with it
Some will host and they claimthat they saywe did
You faced it and if you whysack and I messed with
His name was ah-uh-huh-uh-huhforget this shit
Mad lion is sick
No bed could get up in this re-lyrical
Full of new time threathey
I got my rhymes and the national anthem
Got more rhymes than either oleen or tonet
Got more rhymes than they made us sweat
Of a niggaof a crooked waitin' for the damn checkuh
But let's not forget theback-biters is the name of this setuh
All the peopleand we know you bite mine
Soldier people shall shine
Yo' come in the next trackup this
