Yes indeed,✦ yes indeed✦ out this motherfucker
Back with the right foot steppin'✦ in first
And the left foot steppin'✦ in after✦
I go by the divine✦ attribute of Bus-A-Bus Down Something
Otherwise known as Busta motherfuckin' Rhymes✦ out this bitch
You know what I mean?
'Cause when I'm in the spot
I let a bitch start kissin'✦ up on motherfuckers✦
Love the way that I be pissin'✦ up on motherfuckers✦
Motherfuckers✦ need to chill, relax
What they need to do is listen✦ up, motherfuckers✦
So as we begin✦ to get you addicted to the shit that's so addictive✦
Make sure you got your peoples✦ with you
You know, one of your peoples✦ that stay sober✦
You know, to make sure you get home safely✦
'Cause we about✦ to take it there, motherfuckers✦
Miss E "Misdemeanor" Elliott
So Addictive✦
