Lemme Get 2

Redman · Other Songs - Redman

[Redman]Uhh, chka-yeah

Chka-UHH, chka-yeah

Ladies and gentlemen

Saukrates!



[Chorus 2X: Saukrates]Have you ever been so proud in your life

You livin on your own cloud in the sky

Wanna take e'rybody wit'chu

Forget one, lemme get two



[Redman]Yeah! Yo, hey

I love travellin and seein people

Showin the ignorant my color skin is equal

I like tryin different thai food and seafood

Makin my episode of life another sequel

I like flyin on Delta and Continental

First class, playin them elevator instrumentals

I'm in the window, got on my headphones

Listenin to Big Pun and Wyclef Jean

It's like Exxon, I get gassed up

I shuffle 'round the board like Cassius

That's us when the plane land, hey man

It ain't hard cause I can do it like a caveman

Fix my Ray-Bans, I hit the hotel

Do my show, get my money, hit the hotel

Sittin at the hotel like "Oh well!"

I call shorty that I met today at Modell's

Go girl, it's like we in The Matrix

I'm in a new city, with suitcases

I'm overseas with bills with new faces

And if you're not about that you need a facelift



Yup!



[Chorus]

[Saukrates]Lemme get two, lemme get two [3X]

Lemme get two, bartender lemme get two

Yo

If it's a high life you seekin then you say it

Cause how the hell you gonna win the game if you ain't playin?

I'm in Monaco, swimmin in the deep end with 3 dimes, this ain't dominos

Well maybe it was, I set 'em up to knock 'em down and go

The skeletons in the closet, I'm makin a new deposit

She was never so erotic 'til we got to the ex-o-tic

-tic, now I'm thinkin

that this time bomb is about to explode

Got me wishin that it was different than money, contradiction is funny

I just told y'all to play the game if y'all wan' eat

The truth is it's what you make it

That's why I got my baby girl naked

Long before I bought them tickets to Turks and Caicos

We love each other, beyond under covers

That's why I'm feelin so high like them Wright brothers

Fly, I hope it never take material

for you to get yo' Applejax cereal, here we go



[Chorus]

[Saukrates]Lemme get two, lemme get two [3X]

Lemme get two, bartender lemme get two



[Redman]I'm on vacation BEITCH!

And I'm flyin high
