rate me

Song by Pras f/ Ol' Dirty Bastard, Mya<br /><br>

[ODB]<br>

Man man, look up at the sky<br>

All the stars man, the stars is beautiful tonight<br>

Look at em!<br>

<br>

[Chorus: Mya]<br>

<br>

Ghetto superstar, that is what you are<br>

Comin from afar, reachin for the stars<br>

Run away with me, to another place<br>

We can rely on each other, uh-huh<br>

From one corner, to another, uh-huh<br>

<br>

[Pras]<br>

Uh, yeah, yo, yo<br>

Some got, hopes and dreams, we got, ways and means<br>

The surpreme dream team, always up with the schemes<br>

From hubcaps to sellin raps, name your theme<br>

My rise to the top, floatin on this cream<br>

Who the hell wanna stop me, I hated those who doubt me<br>

A million ReFugees with unlimited warranties<br>

Black Ceasar, dating top skeezers<br>

Diplomatic legalese, no time for a Visa<br>

They just begun, I'ma shoot them one by one<br>

Got five sides to me, somethin like a pentagon<br>

Strike with the forces of King Solomon<br>

Lettin bygones be bygones, and so on, and so on<br>

I'ma teach this cat, how to live in the ghetto<br>

Keepin it retro-spective from the get go<br>

Lay low, let my mind shine like a halo<br>

P-P-Politic with ghetto senators on the deelow<br>

<br>

[Chorus]<br>

<br>

[Ol' Dirty Bastard]<br>

One two, and you don't stop, yo<br>

My eyes is sore, bein a senator<br>

Behind closed doors hittin truth to the seafloor<br>

The rich go North ignore, the tug of war<br>

While the kids are poor, open new and better drug stores<br>

So I became hardcore, couldn't take it no more<br>

I'ma reveal EVERYTHING, change the law<br>

I find myself, walkin the streets<br>

Tryin to find what's really goin on in the streets<br>

<br>

[Pras]<br>

Yea, yo, yo, yo<br>

Now every dog got his day, needless to say<br>

When the chief away that's when them cats want to play<br>

I told you, mess around you fools like Cassius Clay<br>

Stretch my heater make you do a pas de bourree<br>

Kick your balls like Pele, pick em doin ballet<br>

Peak like Dante, broader than Broadway<br>

Get applause like a matador, cry yellin !Ole!<br>

Who the hell wanna save me, from B.K., to Cali<br>

Come on<br>

<br>

[Chorus]<br>

<br>

[Pras]<br>

Yeah... yo, yeah<br>

Just when you thought it was safe in a common place<br>

Showcase your finest is losin fast in the horse race<br>

Two faced, gettin defaced, out like Scarface<br>

Throw your roll money, let me put on my screwface<br>

<br>

[Ol' Dirty Bastard]<br>

Well I'm paranoid at the things I said<br>

Wonderin what's the penalty from day to day, I'm hangin out<br>

partyin with girls that never die, you see I was<br>

pickin on the small fries, my campaign tellin lies<br>

Was just spreadin my love, didn't know my love<br>

was the one holdin the gun and the glove<br>

But it's all good as long as it's understand<br>

It's all together now, in the <br>

hooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood<br>

<br>

[Chorus]<br>

<br>

[Pras]<br>

Uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh<br>

Yeah<br>

All Stars, yeah yeah yeah<br>

<br>

[Chorus]<br>

<br>

[ODB]<br>

Sing it baby, sing it babyeeeeeeeeee<br>

To another, aheoehahahahhhhhhhhh<br>

Yeahhhh, heeeee, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh<br>
