歌词
Featuring Roy Ayers* *Featured Artists on This Album Were Jazz Musicians
A lot of people don't realize the Reason why I'm retiring
I'm tired as a mother****er
(guru) And I'm tired of suckas always complainin' about your situation 'cause you frontin'
"You dig?"
Chorus:
Take a look at yourself, take a look at yourself
Take one big look,
Take a look at yourself
"You dig?"
Take a look at yourself, take a look at yourself
Take one big look,
Take a look at yourself
"You dig?"
(guru) Came up short, man (that's right)
Yeah it's just one time too many (too many)
Don't try to get too friendly
(nah) I shouldn't give you any (none) R-e-s-p-e-c-t, You know respect
(yeah) You're messed up son, tryin' To play mack money
(mack money) You went for self,
For the fast wealth, but you know what's funny?
Now you're fallin', crawlin',
Cryin' out for reasons
(oww) Should I Sympathize, or let my lyrics give legions, and cuts?
'Cause I could straighten you up, I ain't on no crusade (nope)
It's just that your games played (yup)
What are you afraid to make moves and get really big?
You might fade (goodbye)
Cause punk you live for today, now most of your chances, already blew away
Chorus:Take a look at yourself, take a look at yourself
Take one big look,
Take a look at yourself
"You dig?"
Take a look at yourself, take a look at yourself
Take one big look,
Take a look at Yourself
(guru) Listen (check it son) Forget the dissin',
I'm admittin', I've done some wrong, also wrote some dope Songs (word)
My man roy, he brought the vibes low, low, now I'm there,
In here gettin' funky with the track, I used to drive a Cadillac,
It took me there and back (right) But seriously Black, How you livin'?
(how you livin'?) From what I can see, word to mother You're slippin', if I were you,
I'd stop this fantasy world stuff (quit It)
'Cause the real world's tough,
You ain't equipped enough, step back, analyze,
And use your own eyes to See
(take a look) I can't be you,
You can't be me, for your problems,
No you can't blame no one else
Chorus:Take a look at yourself, take a look at yourself
Take one big look,
Take a look at yourself
"You dig?"
Take a look at yourself,
Take a look at yourself
Take one big look,
Take a look at yourself
(guru) I ain't runnin away (never kid) Yo, are you?
I been through the BS, I got scars a few many
But I can't dwell in the hell that I've passed through (nope)
I'ma blast through (yup) And do what I gotta do (have to)
Amazing, suckers think this rap stuff won't phase them, I'll wait then,
And cross the ceilings till they cave in (boom) Don't give in,
'Cause the power keeps me driven (that's right)
I'll destroy the weak noise with much poise, and no toys or tricks (nope)
So stay off my tip, and get a grip on your own, and get a life of your own, and stop waitin',
For things to come to you, that's for chumps
(that's Right) I know what you outta do
Chorus:Take a look at yourself, take a look at yourself
Take one big look,
Take a look at yourself
"You dig?"
Take a look at yourself, take a look at yourself
Take one big look,
Take a look at yourself
(guru) Yeah I wanna give a big big shout out to the dirty rotten scoundrels
A groove on, to my man Premier
Crazy shout out to all the boroughs in New York
Know what i'm sayin'?
'Cause my man Roy Ayers is in full effect
Chorus:Take a look at yourself, take a look at yourself
Take one big look,
Take a look at yourself
"You dig?"
Take a look at yourself, take a look at yourself
Take one big look,
Take a look at yourself
"You dig?"
