[Obie Trice]
Obie Trice: Real name, no gimmicks
Rap; I been in it ever since I was invented
ThatÂ’s cause a nigger live it
My records wield digits in history
Niggers, you be the witness
I got the white boys mad at me
Cause Em signed another black boy
Like he nigger happy
Caucasians, Marshall knows talent
Obie Trice a riot, thatÂ’s why heÂ’s hired
I hit ya raves, balloons and EÂ’s
And bang all your European Pamela LeeÂ’s
FuckinÂ’ aye, or how we say it round my way
“Fo sho”, Trice gon blow, then I’m off to them shows
IÂ’m off across the globe, until my accounts all swoll
For young Kobe - big things, act like ya know me
Not a soul can hold me, IÂ’m here

[Eminem] ThatÂ’s why I ainÂ’t got no

[Obie Trice]
It didnÂ’t take much - one hot single (BAM!!)
Smiles and handshakes, my man
The industry greeted me with open arms
With no type of flak cause O. Trice got that
Fugaze yÂ’all rap, who gave yÂ’all dat?
New wave of mu-zack that youÂ’re all lovinÂ’
Got your broads on my balls, hugginÂ’
Even my next-of-kinÂ’s famous (ObieÂ’s your cousin?)
Please believe it
I’m as “Down to Earth” as Chris Rock
GettinÂ’ hit by trucks, starinÂ’ at twat
A big cannon in ya G-spot
Me, not arrogant girl, me keep them freaks hot
Whether or not you believe my status
IÂ’m prepared to be the baddest
On the rap thatÂ’s happeninÂ’
Put the Mitten back on the map
With Mathers and win this

[Obie Trice]
Well, IÂ’m drunk right now, but still I got a gun
Beef? (*cocked and two shots*) best-a run
Cause when I pop, peopleÂ’s flesh get numb
And whoa... Ya might not make it ‘til ya young
The only one with okayÂ’s, wanna blaze
Meet my little friends on racks in my den
Pull ‘em out, that’s when the action begins
And ya block, remind you of Mad Max the film
Deserted, thatÂ’s word to vacant homes
2002 Trice up in ya headphones
[Eminem] If itÂ’s ya system
[Obie] Trice up in ya bows
[Eminem] If itÂ’s ya women
[Obie] Then Trice up in ya hoes!
I suppose that I am kinda cocky, when itÂ’s dealinÂ’
With raps, chicks, and cats out to sock me
I handle it like Rocky, Jake Sneed
Rakim, Eric B. - OÂ’s a G!
