Sir Too $hort
Sir Too $hort
Sir Too $hort comin' straight from Oakland
O-O-O-Oakland, O-Oakland
Sir Too $hort comin' straight from Oakland
1984, I was famous, they called me Sir Too $hort (Too $hort)
I went to Fremont High, on the Foothill strip on the east side
The only rappers you would ever see was Sir Too $hort and Freddie B (yeah)
'Cause we was good in every hood, every block, every corner, anywhere we stood
It's no problem (no problem), nothin' but love
Sellin' our tapes to the niggas sellin' drugs (ay)
Hittin' spots you would never go
I know gangstas you could never know
You come around us, you might get checked
We come around, y'all, you better give us respect (respect)
Or you'll be layin' down on the ground
We from The Town (Oakland), we don't fuck around (it's Too $hort)
And e'rybody know me
Sir Too $hort
Sir Too $hort
Sir Too $hort comin' straight from Oakland
O-O-O-Oakland, O-Oakland
Sir Too $hort comin' straight from Oakland
So what happened? (What happened?) I made another slap
I'm spittin' game, they sayin' it's a wrap (it's a wrap)
They say I grabbed the microphone and took control
And I'm still on a roll (on a roll)
You tried too, but you failed
You was havin' fun, it didn't go well
A lil' cocaine with some opioids
You got too high, now you unemployed (no job)
What's the last thing you remember?
Tell a whole story like a documenter
You can't understand why you not the winner
You always on that real shit, you not a pretender
It's true (it's true), you rap better than me
But a legend, that's what you'll never be (what you'll never be)
'Cause I put more work in than all of y'all
And kept goin' when y'all was fallin' off (fallin' off, it's Too $hort)
You know my motherfuckin' name
Sir Too $hort
Sir Too $hort
Sir Too $hort comin' straight from Oakland
O-O-O-Oakland, O-Oakland
Sir Too $hort comin' straight from Oakland
Bitch (Too $hort), back in the day, I made beats, and I used to DJ
I made the "Dope Fiend Beat", and "Freaky Tales" was produced by me (did that)
Made "I Ain't Trippin'", "Cusswords", too, yeah, that's all me, pimpin' (pimpin')
I made a lotta songs, but you can't understand how I last so long
Well, let me see you do it
E'rybody love me, I'm used to it (used to it)
My career's insane, I do a lotta big shows with the big names
They keep callin' my phone again and again
They want a feature, that's how it's always been
Am I a lyricist? It's not in my pen
But somehow, I always win in the end ($hort Dawg)
And all the bitches know me
Sir Too $hort
Sir Too $hort
Sir Too $hort comin' straight from Oakland
O-O-O-Oakland, O-Oakland
Sir Too $hort comin' straight from Oakland
Too $hort
