You kick drum aint got enough bass
Don't ever talk bad about me
You just might make me mad
And I jus might see you sumwhere
And brake your ass in half

Hit love on the verge to the block

You can get a few whips
You can get a few chips
You still gone be a lame
We ain't the same my nigga
Am on some other shit
I'mma say this plain and simple
Nigga take this punishment
Ama take yall on a trip
Ama take yall on a ride
And one day am gon dip, but a won't be hard to find
[Chorus: x8]
Oh timbaland,
Where he go run to?
(nowhere)
