That's right I'm a nigga✦
My man Lord Finesse is my motherfucking nigga✦
You know Evil E's my nigga,✦ Islam's my nigga✦
That's right they're my niggas✦
[2 Verse]
I'm a nigga✦ in America✦
And that much I flaunt
Cause when I see what I like
Yo I take what I want
I'm not the only✦ one
That's why I'm not bitter✦
Cause everybody is a nigga✦ to a nigga!✦
America✦ was stole from the Indians
Show and prove, what was that?
A straight up nigga✦ move
A low down shame
Yo it's straight insane✦
Yet they complain
When a nigga✦ snatch
Their gold chains
What is nigga✦ suppose to do?
Wait around for a handout
From a nigga✦ like you?
That's why a low down nigga✦ gets hyped✦
But I'm not a nigga✦ of that type
I'm a steak and lobster eatin'✦
Billionaire meetin'✦
Cash money✦ makin',✦ movin'✦ shakin'✦
Corporate✦ jet glidin'✦
Limousine ridin'✦
Writin'✦ hits, filthy✦ rich
Straight up nigga!✦
That's right I'm a nigga✦
[3 Verse]
Now I'm a write this song
Though the radio✦ won't play it
But I got freedom of speech
So I'm a say it
She wanna✦ be lez he wanna✦ be gay
Well that's your business, I'm straight
So nigga✦ have it your way
Those who hate me I got somethin' for ya
I'm a nigga✦ with cash; a nigga✦ with a lawyer✦
Not a watermelon chitlin eatin'✦ nigga✦ down south
But a nigga✦ that'll smack the taste from your mouth
A contemplating thinking best champagne drinkin'
Ten inch givin'✦ extra✦ large livin'✦
Mercedes benz' drivin'✦ strivin'✦ to survivin✦
All the way live n' and kickin'✦ hi fivin'✦
Strokin' rap and happenin' deal doing
Fly in from Cali to chill with the crew in
Rhymin'✦ groovin' fly girlie grabbin'
Horny✦ gun shootin' long hair havin'✦
Nigga✦

[4 Verse]
Nigga✦ that's right fool look at me
Just the kinda✦ nigga✦ you'd like to hang from a tree
But all you KKK type grave diggers
Ease back fool cause I'm a trigger nigga✦
I work real hard for my livin✦
But I don't celebrate✦ bullshit Thanksgiving
Sit up like some fool and eat turkey✦
That's the day your forefathers jerked✦ me
Shipped us all over✦ here in locks and chains
Split us up twisted up a nigga's✦ brain
Now you keep me in constant sweat
But I'm a nigga✦ that you'll never✦ forget✦
A black bad iron clad always mad
Fly nigga✦ takin'✦ off from a helipad
Rolex drivin'✦ buck wilin'✦ cash pilin'✦
Sportin' link chains and medallions
Intellectual hi-tech✦ cashin'✦ seven✦ digit✦ checks
And still breakin' necks
The ultimate✦ male supreme white woman's dream
Big dick straight up nigga✦
