Don't Even Try It

Yo Jeff what's shaking man

What's up dude

Hey man you remember that girl I knew

I walking to school man

The one who used to diss me every day

Yeah

When the record came out she called me two days ago man

Man my phone is ringing off the hook

With people asking me for tapes and free records

I man I ain't with it

Word man

Bust this

This rap is for you people in the past who were against me

Who snatched up every opportunity to dis me

Put me down like I was nothing treated me like a jerk

Now I'm seeing the pay off of all my hard work

Cause now that it's my records on the wheels

Somehow all of a sudden it's a whole new deal

So for those in the past who dissed me don't deny it

What you're sorry huh don't even try it

Word man

Man people are a trip man

Put everybody down about what's up with that

Yo word man

I gotta let 'em know

I gotta

Bust this

I used to know this girl by the name of Theresa

I did all I could to make her release her

Emotions to me but she just wouldn't do it

She built up a wall and I couldn't break through it

I used to walk to school every day of the week

Watching Theresa walk on the other side of the street

One day I finally got my heart up to speak

But she dissed me and dismissed me with a smack on my cheek

So I bought six bottles of new fancy cologne

But all I got from Theresa was leave me alone

I bought new clothes to wear everyplace

But all Theresa would say was get out of my face

So I gave up this quest for Theresa

But then on the day my record was released a

Strange thing happened when it came on the radio

Theresa broke her neck just to say hello

I looked at her I said you must be foolish

Why did you ignore me on the way to school if

You were interested she said oh I apologize

I looked deep into her dark brown eyes

I said you ignored me for months on and

Now all of a sudden you wanna be my friend

You didn't talk before so don't talk now be quiet

What you really like me huh don't even try it

Man she had a lotta nerve man

Word man

Hey man but she ain't had half as much

Nerve as that old record producer man

Remember when he dissed us man

What what up

When I first started rapping I had one idea

And it was set in my mind very vivid and clear

I knew that I wanted to be a rap artist

I would give my all and work my hardest

But when I took my song to a record producer

He told me that I better go drink some rap juice or

Something cause my song was really absurd

He said that it was the worst trash that he'd ever heard

You know my ego was shattered he busted my groove

I could hear him cracking up as I left the booth ha haaa

I thought my song was good but he busted my bubble

The title was girls ain't nothing but trouble

Luckily I found someone who had faith

He lifted my ego back up into place

His name was Dana Goodman and he thought my song was on track

So two weeks later it was out on wax

It busted up the charts like a hydrogen bomb

Up up up up it clim clim climbed

I made people eat the words that said I couldn't achieve

Now they had no choice but to believe

In me then no sooner than my record came out

That same old producer started calling my house

One night he called me 'bout at half past 12

He said I've got some cash if you wanna sell

I said you big stupid half wit idiot

I told you before that my record was a hit

But you just laughed like I was some kind of kid

Now don't you regret what you did

I wish you'd get off my tip yes that's my request

You see he who laughs last always laughs best

Okay I'll be reasonable you wanna buy it

Okay I'll sell it psych don't even try it

Ha ha

That's how you gotta put it to him

Word man that's how you gotta

You know what

Let me tell you something

I got dissed so hard man

Bust this

I'ma tell you what's up

Yo Prince do you remember when we first started out

How we used to go to all the parties just to rock the house

Word man I remember those good days well

Why chill out man cause I got a story to tell

About five years ago I began my quest

To be the best deejay in the whole U.S

There was a lot of deejays striving for my spot

They would put me down every chance they got

Never cut me a break on any given night

They used to all look at me and say Pfsss Jeff's aight

But when your Magnficient cuts were released

All of that laughter ceased

Word

When you and I used to do our shows

All the crowd would say was ho ho ho

Yeah time after time we were tearing it up

While you rocked the mic and I rocked the cut

But now that I'm making a name for myself

All those deejays are like yo Jeff what's up

But all that stuff is dead no I ain't with it

They approach me on the street and say yo Jeff how 'bout a ticket

Man to your very next show

But I say no and I tell 'em where they can go

I can't believe that they had the nerve

To hop on my tip now yeah man word

Just the other day homebody approached me on the street

And said yo Jeff how 'bout a record for free

I said man the way you dissed me you better go buy it

But Jeff we're friends for real don't even try it

Hey man I'm telling you

Straight up

You know how it is man

Man people

People are a trip man

Maybe they'll know next time not to dis people

Knawmsaying
