Big Boi:
My baby's drama mama's mama, don't like me
She doing things like havin' her boys come from her neighborhood
To the studio tryin' to fight me
She need to get a, piece of the American pie and take her bite out
That's my house, I disconnect the cable and turn the lights out
And let her know her grandchild is a baby, and not a paycheck
Private schools, daycare, shit, medical bills, I pay that
I love your mom and everything, see I ain't no one to lay down
She wanna rip you up start a custody war, my lawyer stay down
She never had a chance to hear my side of the story, we was divided
She had fish fries, cookouts, on my child's birthday I ain't invited
Despite it, I show her the utmost respect when I fall through
All you, do is defend that lady when I call you, yeah
 
I'm sorry Ms. Jackson (OOOH)
I am for real
Never meant to make your daughter cry
I apologize a trillion times
I'm sorry Ms. Jackson (OOOH)
I am for real
Never meant to make your daughter cry
I apologize a trillion times
 
Andre:
Me and yo daughter
Got a special thing going on
You say it's puppy love
We say it's full grown
Hope that we feel this
Feel this way forever
You can plan a pretty picnic
But you can't predict the weather, Ms. Jackson
Ten times out of nine, and if I'm lyin' find
The quickest muzzle throw it on my mouth and I'll decline
King meets queen, then the puppy love theme, together dream
Bout that crib with the goodyear swing
On the oak tree, I hope we feel like this forever
Forever, forever, ever, forever, ever
Forever never seems that long until your grown
And notice that the day by day rule can't be too long
Ms. Jackson my intentions were good I wish I could
Become a magician to abracadabra all the sadder
Thoughts of me, thoughts of she, thoughts of he
Askin' what happened to the feelin' that her and me
Had, I pray so much about it need some knee, pads
It happened for a reason one can't be, mad
So know this, know that everything is cool
And yes I will be present on the first day of school, and graduation
 
I'm sorry Ms. Jackson (OOOH)
I am for real
Never meant to make your daughter cry
I apologize a trillion times
I'm sorry Ms. Jackson (OOOH)
I am for real
Never meant to make your daughter cry
I apologize a trillion times
 
Big Boi:
Uh, uh, yeah Look at the way he treats me, shit,
Look at the way you treat me
See you and your lil' nosey ass homegirls got ya ass sent up the creek, G
Without a paddle, you left the straddlin', ride this thing on out
And you and your girl ain't speakin' no more 'Cause my dick all in her mouth
Know what I'm talking about, jealousy, infidelity, envy
Cheating, beating, and to the D and the G they be the same thing
So who you placing the blame on, you keep on singing that same song
Let bygones be bygones, you can go on and get the hell on
You and your mama
 
I'm sorry Ms. Jackson (OOOH)
I am for real
Never meant to make your daughter cry
I apologize a trillion times
I'm sorry Ms. Jackson (OOOH)
I am for real
Never meant to make your daughter cry
I apologize a trillion times

Outkast - In Due Time Lyrics

Outkast - In Due Time Video

Chorus
 
You just keep your faith in me
Don't act impatiently
You'll get where you need to be
In due time
Even when things go slow
Hold on and don't let go
I'll give you what I owe
In due time
 
Verse one:
 
When that * be thinkin of cruisin'
The braves cap is to the side
Thinkin' the police gon' pull me over
With this * off in my ride
So I hide the brick of weed
Under the arm rest, under the leather
Thinkin' of startin ways
To make my life a little better
Then the dope peddler
Never pay no * taxes
Takin a chunk up out my check
And makin my rhymes just look like practice
Buyin' clothing, range roving
With my folks
Don't speak about the dirty south
My crew ain't bout no jokes
I know some people don't like the way we flow
Because they envy
They talkin bout they * my *
And that they could have been me
You lookin to be that butterfly
Without the caterpillar
Take your time and do it right
Cause you gon make it
I swear my
Or collapse 1
Falling a victim to your greed boy
Your looking to be big willie
But ou're still a seed boy
The information in my skull
Be pokin' some of y'all on the shoulder
But on the other side of the fence
 
They got * breakin' boulders
For quick money
 
Bridge
 
Struggle is just a part of my day
Many obstachave been placed in my way
I know the only reason that I make it through
Is because I never stop believing in you
Some people wonder why we're here in the 1st place
They can't believe because they ain't never seen your face
But even when you pray, the next day you gotta try
Can it wait 4 nobody 2 come down out the sky
You've got to realize that the world's a test
You can only do your best and let him do the rest
You've got your life, you've got your health
So quit procrastinating and push it yourself
You've got to realize that the world's a test
You can only do your best and let him do the rest
You've got your life, you've got your health
So quit procrastinating
 
Verse 2:
 
Who said good folks is not supposed to die
The same * that said * is not supposed to cry
United states giving out milk and cheese to pacify
I'm sure they got a cure 4 a.i.d.s., but yet it's classified
You wonder why I spit the truth and not 2 make no dough
To make a differencefo' this * up and blow
In piece, I could thinkof many reasons
Only when * is going bad you want to holla jesus
I pledge allegiance, they got my knuckles bleeding
From crawling, got these * thinkin they ballin'
When they isn't, don't take my word,
There's * off in prison
That will tell yo, that's locked up 4 a long time and won't sell you
No flex, so congregation will turn you text,
To the book of outkast, chapter 2, verse 1
The 1st 1, that make me jump up and make a joyful noise
You'se outkasted, meaning you now have a choice like that
 
Chrous
(repeat 2x)

Outkast - Chonkyfire Lyrics

Outkast - Chonkyfire Video

Yo, this is my story, this is my song
And to them rudypoots don't attempt to try this at home
It's just a poem until y'all learn right from wrong
Kwow when to bless a situation, when to grab the chrome
But it's back on, another stormy night in Atlanta, Georgia
Overcast, but on behalf of Outkast, I cordially
Invite you to an emotion filled theater
Bring your umbrella cause young fella it gets no weirder
 
(Refrain)
We reign, reign supreme, preme, dungeon, dungeon kings
Do you know what it brings rats, mice, snakes up out of they hole
Chonkyfire, spliced with rock n'roll indubitably, piper pied
Now hold on my brother no, no, no, no, can't stop the stride
 
You are now about entering the fifth demension of ascension
Our only intention is to take you high
High, yeah, yeah my lord
 
(Big Boi)
To make one bob they head would be the track job
Tour job's to spit that fire
Some of y'all MC's take this rhymin for granted I won't comply
With that slackin, poppin and crackin 4th ward way we snappin
They won't that hardness that oddness that gets a nigga to start this
What's happenin, see if do what yo won't do today boy
Will I live tommorrow like you can't even live cause you strayed
Motivational skills lackin, when I see you nigga packin
Understand that though, you behind a $75,000 car do'
But you still stay with mom though playin the King like Don doe
You chocked up, you was the nigga that supposed to be locked up
Makin them thick Hip Hop is dead, exhume the body if you ain't scared
And if I see you in the streets I'd dap you down like you was Greg

Outkast - Bowtie (Featuring Sleepy Brown) Lyrics

Outkast - Bowtie (Featuring Sleepy Brown) Video

Girl you cut up! (oww!)
Girl you know you cut up!
 
Crocodile on my feet
Fox fur on my back
Bowtie 'round my neck
That's why they call me gangsta mack
In the Cadillac!! Yeah!!!
 
Crocodile on my feet
Fox fur on my back
Bowtie 'round my neck
That's why they call me gangsta mack
In the Cadillac!! Yeah!!!
 
(Big Boi): Nasty Noompsy Knightingale
Fresh in that tuxedo
Cumberbun with no suspenders
My torpedo, your libido
Need to chat (Chip, chop it up, shoot the breeze!)
I'm your r-o-l-a-i-d-s, release the squeeze or release the keys
To the shackles on her wrist, she can tackle some of this
Smack on smack on some of this dick tracy
Arrest her, book her, fingerprint your hooker
You took her to the club and now her body is full of liquor
Off that Butterscotch Schnapps and Bailey's Irish Cream
She's a damsel in distress impressed with stylish things
Whatcha mean? (Chip, chop it up, shoot the breeze!)
In the parking lot we primp, crooked booty to the scene where it's...
 
Crocodile on my feet
Fox fur on my back
Bowtie 'round my neck
That's why they call me gangsta mack
In the Cadillac!! Yeah!!!
 
Crocodile on my feet
Fox fur on my back
Bowtie 'round my neck
That's why they call me gangsta mack
In the Cadillac!! Yeah!!!
 
(Big Boi): Oh, lord! How can it be so hard??
To put on a pair of panties much less a pair of jeans or a leotard
But I got to start by complimenting you on your physique
You unique, you best believe I'm gon' skeet once I speak
Spoke, spit, spatter, spat and I macked her just like that
But it takes years of perseverance and experience to get the cat!
So why don't I chase this Hennessy down with some of that
On your back, like a cheerleader missing the final stack!
As we strut skip the line through the glass window glance
We look fine, right on time
As we step in the place the nursery's crunk we've come to play
 
(Sleepy): Everybody's watching 'Cause them furs just hit the door
While the gator's creeping, crawling oh so wicked across that floor
To the V.I.P. where we proceed to give you what you need
Throw your hands up if you feel me!! Throw your hands up if you feel me!!
'Cause we well designed and fine as wine
Feel good to be fly, so don't you ask me why
I got the ladies in line, because they can't deny
So raise your hands to the sky 'Cause we super fly
'Cause we super fly
 
Crocodile on my feet
Fox fur on my back
Bowtie 'round my neck
That's why they call me gangsta mack
In the Cadillac!! Yeah!!!
 
Crocodile on my feet
Fox fur on my back
Bowtie 'round my neck
That's why they call me gangsta mack
In the Cadillac!!

Outkast - Elevators (Me & You) Lyrics

Outkast - Elevators (Me & You) Video

Verse One: Andre
 
One for the money yes uhh two for the show
A couple of years ago on Headland and Delowe
Was the start of somethin good
Where me and my nigga rodes the MARTA, through the hood
Just tryin ta find that hookup
Now everyday we look up at the ceiling
Watchin ceiling fans go around tryin ta catch that feelin
 
We caught the 86 Lithonia headed to Decatur
Writing rhymes tryin ta find our spot off in that light
Light off in that spot, known that we could rock
Doin the hole in the wall clubs, this shit here must stop
Like freeze, we makin the crowd move but we not makin no G's
And that's a no no
 
Verse Two: Big Boi
 
Yeah, uhh, check it
Ahh one two, ahh one two doe, niggaz
In the Cadillac they call us went from Player's Ball to ballers
Puttin the South up on the map was like Little Rock to bangin
Niggaz say motherfuck that playin, they payin
We stay in layin vo-cals, locals done made it with them big boys
Up in dis industry, Outkast yea dem niggaz they makin big noise
Over a million sold to this day, niggaz they take it lightly
Ninety-six gon be that year that all y'all playa haters can bite me
...around this bitch
 
Chorus: repeat 2X
 
Me and you, your momma and your cousin too
Rollin down the strip on vogues
Comin up slammin Cadillac doz (doors)
 
Verse Three: Big Boi
 
Back in the day when I was younger, hunger
Lookin to fill me belly with that Rally's, bullshit, pull shit
Off like it was supposed to be pulled
Full as a tick I was, stoned like white boys
Smokin them white golds before them blunts got krunk, chunky asses
Passes gettin thrown like Hail Mary's and they lookin like Halle Berry
So so fine, intertwined, but we ain't sippin wine
We's just chillin, I'm the rabid villain, and I'm so high
Smokin freely, me Lil B, Greet, Mon and Shug
And my little brother James, thangs changed in the hood
Where I live at, them rats know, mama I want to sing but
Mama I want to trick, and mama I'm suckin dick, now
We movin on up in da world like elevators
Me and the crew we pimps like eighty-two
Me and you like Tony Toni Tone
Like this Eastpointe and we gone
 
Chorus
 
Verse Four: Andre
 
Got stopped at the mall the other day
Heard a call from the other way
That I just came from, some nigga was sayin somethin
Talkin bout Hey man, you remember me from school? smoke some
Naw not really but he kept smilin like a clown
Facial expression lookin silly
And he kept askin me, what kind of car you drive, I know you paid
I know y'all got beaucoup of hoes from all them songs that y'all done made
And I replied that I had been goin through tha same thing that he had
True I got more fans than the average man but not enough loot to last me
To the end of the week, I live by the beat like you live check to check
If you don't move yo' feet then I don't eat, so we like neck to neck
Yes we done come a long way like them slim ass cigarettes
From Virginia, this ain't gon stop so we just gonna continue

Outkast - 13th Floor/Growing Old Lyrics

Outkast - 13th Floor/Growing Old Video

Big Rube (Spoken):
Conceive true deception, and multiply it a million fold.
Visualize the yin and yang in a battle so intense, that we get 'em confused.
The resident evil specialize in misconstruin'.
We wanna be at a presidential level, what are we doin'?
Foolin' ourself, clownin' ourself, playin ourself, but not bein' ourself.
We can't babble no more than we can bob our head offbeat.
Nimrod by the time we forty cause we can't get our meat.
While we ask no reason for the misplacement of the season.
Look at the picture that's painted.
Tainted as the mind who's blinded to the point where Sodomites get all the rights.
We fall for fights with fisticuffs, get pissed enough to miss the bus.
It disgusts me to see my folks run up on.
I say stand up on the section of time marked Revelations.
And recognize this mind numbin' reality of horror, known as mankind.
Jesus and his twelve disciples make thirteen, a righteous number of righteous men.
Even Judas the Betrayer came true in the end.
The Devil say the end is the beginnin'.
They teach that we were the product of incest.
Invest no level of self into their system of Paganomics.
Stand with us and don't look back upon.
Just face this mind state, otherwise Babylon.
 
Debra Killings:
My memories of yesterday
 
Cut and scratched:
Ninety-six gonna be that year (Yeah, Yeah)
Ninety-six gonna be that year (Yeah)
Ninety-six gonna be that year (Y-y-y-yeah)
Ninety-six gonna be that year (Yeah)
 
Andre:
I bet you never heard of a playa with no game
Told the truth to get what I want, but shot it with no shame
Take this music dead serious while others entertain
I see they makin' they paper so I guess I can't complain, or can I
 
I feel they disrespectin' their whole thang
Them hooks like sellin' dope to black folks, and I choke when the food they serve ain't tastin' right
My stomach can't digest it even when I bless it
I'm confessin' one mo' lesson from the south we in the house tonight
 
Now who-ty who wants to oppose, suppose
We rolls through Headland and Delowe
Where me and my niggaz surpassed the flow
And got down for ours like hind catchers
 
My mind catches flashbacks to the black past
While my close niggaz laugh at
The Southern slang, finger waves and mojo chicken wangs
I grew up on booty shake we did not know no better thang
 
So go 'head and, diss it
While real hop-hippers listen
Started by Afrikan Bambaataa, so you and your partner
Gather your thoughts (Ninety-six gonna be that year)
 
Debra Killings:
Something's gotta change
Sounds of laughter and happiness turns my teardrops to rain
Been bearing this burden for too many of my days
Looks like breezes of Autumn (Ninety-six gonna be that year), done finally blew my way
Like memories of yesterday
 
Big Boi:
Uhh, born Antwan Patton but my partners they call me Big Boi
It's the nigga the B-I-G, be speakin' the truth not talkin' that shit boi
I'm thinkin' of checkin' my traps and bustin my raps and throwin' them craps
Seven-eleven is no convenience, you pumpin' your gas, they're watchin yo' back
 
For the robbin' crew, thinkin' they robbin' you, you must be cautious
To stand up on yo' game and pimpin' these crows you must be flawless
Like Mortal Kombat, but fuckin' these wombats got you dizzy
My nigga you know of I wanna be playin' but runnin' up on me like you miss me
 
You catchin' the wrong vibe, packin' yo shit and rollin' yo eyes back
Flexin' up on the corner tossin' your dice and rollin' your Cadillac
But man it seems I'm reachin' out and touchin' the wrong nigga
Don't expect it to be pimpin' get your index off the trigger
 
As we bust, us
Be leavin' 'em in the dust
So keep that 'cain up out of your nose I said my piece and then I hush
As the candidate keeps flippin', niggaz dippin' (Ninety-six gonna be that year)
 
Debra Killings
Something's gotta change
Sounds of laughter and happiness turns my teardrops to rain
Been bearing this burden for too many of my days
Looks like breezes of Autumn done finally blew my way (Ninety-six gonna be that year)
Like memories of yesterday
 
Andre
My dearly beloved we are gathered to life, like soap is the lather we come clean
Some issues need to be addressed like envelopes I mean
Oh like Liberty Bells yes them bullets keep on rangin'
On fire like the Georgia mass choir we keep on sangin'
 
Bringin' our folks closer together 'Cause they severed us from the get green
Light and we ain't gon' stop until we hit the big screen
Psych because no one is free when others are oppressed
So, we hit the stage and then we fly back to our nest, growin' old
 
Big Boi
Like some eagles, people don't understand just like their parents don't be carin'
I'm speakin' about you playin' with that phony stuff you sharin'
In your raps Mercedes Benz and all your riches
Thinkin' you got it, but get it get it, but you ain't pimpin' no bitches
 
'Cause you flaw, in, fallin' like leaves into driveways
Isn't it lovely smokin' good and sloppy head on highways
Friday's are tight but Saturday just makes it old
Winter nights are hot warm enough to feed your soul, growin' old
 
Debra Killings
Something's gotta change
Sounds of laughter and happiness turns my teardrops to rain
Been bearing this burden for too many of my days
Looks like breezes of Autumn done finally blew my way
Like memories of yesterday (Ninety-six gonna be that year)
 
Debra Killings
Something's gotta change
Sounds of laughter and happiness (Ninety-six gonna be that year), turns my teardrops to rain
Been bearing this burden (Ninety-six gonna be that year), for too many of my days
Looks like breezes of Autumn done finally blew my way
Like memories of yesterday
 
Andre
(Fading In) See all them leaves must fall down, growin' old
 
Fat titties turn to teardrops as fat ass turns to flab
Sores that was open wounds eventually turn to scab
Trees bright and green turn yellow brown
Autumn caught 'em, see all them leaves must fall down, growin' old
 
Fat titties turn to teardrops as fat ass turns to flab
Sores that was open wounds eventually turn to scab
Trees bright and green turn yellow brown
Autumn caught 'em, see all them leaves must fall down, growin' old
 
Fat titties turn to teardrops as fat ass turns to flab
Sores that was open wounds eventually turn to scab
Trees bright and green turn yellow brown
Autumn caught 'em, see all them leaves must fall down, growin' old

Outkast - B.O.B. (Bombs Over Baghdad) Video

Dre
1, 2... 1, 2, 3; yeah!
In-slum-national, underground
Thunder pounds when I stomp the ground (Woo!)
Like a million elephants and silverback orangutans
You can't stop a train
Who want some? Don't come un-prepared
I'll be there, but when I leave there
Better be a household name
Weather man tellin' us it ain't gon' rain
So now we sittin' in a drop-top, soaking wet
In a silk suit, tryin' not to sweat
Hit somersaults without the net
But this'll be the year that we won't forget
One-Nine-Nine-Nine, Anno Domini, anything goes, be whatchu wanna be
Long as you know consequences are given for livin'
The fence is too high to jump in jail
Too low to dig, I might just touch hell
HOT! Get a life, now they on sale
Then I might cast you a spell, look at what came in the mail
A scale and some Arm and Hammer, soul gold grill and some baby mama
Black Cadillac and a pack of Pampers
Stack of question with no answers
Cure for cancer, cure for AIDS
Make a nigga wanna stay on tour for days
Get back home, things are wrong
Well, not really, it was bad all along
Before you left adds up to a ball of power
Thoughts at a thousand miles per hour
Hello, ghetto, let your brain breathe,
Believe there's always more, ahhhhh!
 
Chorus: 2X
Dre Don't pull that thang out, unless you plan to bang
Choir Bombs over Baghdad!
Dre Yeah! Ha ha yeah!
Don't even bang unless you plan to hit something
Choir Bombs over Baghdad!
Dre Yeah! Uhh-huh
 
Big Boi
Uno, dos, tres, it's on
Did you ever think a pimp rock a microphone?
Like that there boy and we still stay street
Big things happen every time we meet
Like a track team, crack fiend, dying to geek
Outkast bumpin' up and down the street
Slant back Cadillac, 'bout five nigga deep
Seventy-five MC's freestylin' to the beat
'Cause we get crunk, stay crunk, at the club
Should have bought an ounce, but you copped a dub
Should have held back, but you throwed the punch
'Spose to meet your girl but you packed a lunch
No D to the U to the G for you
Got a son on the way by the name of Bamboo
Got a little baby girl four years, Jordan
Never turned my back on my kids, there for them
Should have hit it, quit it, rag top
Before you re-up, get a laptop
Make a business for yourself, boy, set some goals
Make a fat diamond out of dusty coals
Record number four, but we on a roll
Hold up, slow up, stop, control
Like Janet, Planet Stankonia is on ya
Movin' like Floyd comin' straight to Florida
Lock all your windows then block the corridors
Pullin' off my belt 'Cause a whipping's in order
I like a three piece fish before I cut your daughter
Yo quiero Taco Bell, then I hit the border
Pity PAT rappers tryin' to get the five
I'm a microphone fiend tryin' to stay alive
When you come to ATL, boy, you better not hide
'Cause the Dungeon Family gon' ride, hah!
 
Chorus: 2X
Dre Don't pull the thang out, unless you plan to bang

Outkast - ATLiens Lyrics

Outkast - ATLiens Video

Big Boi
Well it's the M I crooked letter, ain't no one better
And when I'm on the microphone you best to wear your sweater
Cause I'm cooler than a polar bear's toenails
Oh hell, there he go again talkin' that shit
Bend, corner's like I was a curve, I struck a nerve
And now you bout to see this Southern playa serve
I heard it's not where you're from but where you pay rent
Then I heard it's not what you make but how much you spent
You got me bent like elbows, amongst other things, but I'm not worried
Cause when we step up in the party, like I'm out-you-scurry
So go get your fuckin' shine box, and your sack of nickles
It tickles to see you try to be like Mr. Pickles
Daddy fat sacks, B-I-G B-O-I
It's that same motherfucka that took them knuckles to your eye
And I try, to warn you not to test but you don't listen
Givin' a shout out to my Uncle Donnell locked up in prison
 
Hook: Andre'
Now throw your hands in the air
And wave 'em like you just don't care
And if you like fish and grits and all that pimp shit
Everybody let me hear you say O Yea-er
Now throw your hands in the air
And wave 'em like you just don't care
And if you like fish and grits and all that pimp shit
Everybody let me hear you say O Yea-er
 
Andre'
Now, my oral illustration be like clitoral stimulation
To the female gender, ain't nothin' better
Let me know when it's wet enough to enter
If not I'll wait, because the future of the world depends on
Therefore, if not the child we raise gon' have that nigga syndrome
Or will it know to be the hard regardless of the skin tone
I really feel that if we tune it, it just might get picked on
Or will it give a fuck about what others say and get gone
The alienators cause we different keep your hands to the sky
Like Sounds of Blackness when I practice what I preach ain't no lie
I'll be the baker and the maker of the piece of my pie
Now breaker, breaker 10-4 can I get some reply?
Now everybody say...
 
Now throw your hands in the air
And wave 'em like you just don't care
And if you like fish and grits and all that pimp shit
Everybody let me hear you say O Yea-er
Now throw your hands in the air
And wave 'em like you just don't care
And if you like fish and grits and all that pimp shit
Everybody let me hear you say O Yea-er
 
Big Boi
Everyday I sit while my nigga be in school
Thinkin' about the second album at the Dungeon shootin' pool
Like E-S to the P-N, cuz we adjust to the beat in the zone (zone)
Honey I'm home but I'm not married
Carried a lot of problems around being frustrated
And now I'm sittin' at the end of the month I just made it
Like you made the B team and like the daddy's wife you makin' the coffee
You heard the A-T-L-iens, so back the hell up off me...
 
Andre'
Softly as if I played piano in the dark
Found a way to channel my anger not to embark
The world's a stage and everybody's got to play their part
God works in mysterious ways so when he starts
The job of speakin' through us we be so sincere with this here
No drugs or alcohol so I can get the signal clear as day
Put my glock away I got a stronger weapon
That never runs out of ammunition so I'm ready for war, okay
 
Now throw your hands in the air
And wave 'em like you just don't care
And if you like fish and grits and all that pimp shit
Everybody let me hear you say O Yea-er
Now throw your hands in the air
And wave 'em like you just don't care
And if you like fish and grits and all that pimp shit
Everybody let me hear you say O Yea-er

Chorus:
Ain't nobody dope as me I'm dressed so fresh so clean
(So fresh and so clean clean)
Know you think I'm so sexy I'm dressed so fresh so clean
(So fresh and so clean clean)

Sir Luscious got gator belts and patty melts and Monte Carlo's
And El Dorado's I'm waking up out of my slumber feeling like Rollo
So follow it's Showtime at the Apollo
Minus the Kiki Shepard what about a ho in a leopard-print
Teddy Pender-grass cooler than Freddie Jackson
Sippin a milkshake in a snowstorm
Left my throat warm in the dorm room at the AU
We blew hey too, athletes might cake you
But you must have me mistaken with them statements that you make
Cause
 
Chorus
 
Canary yellow seven-nine Seville is on display
My nigga Bongo hooked it up Omar gone dip my rims today
So a nigga can ride out to the honeycomb hideout
I'ma show you how to wild out like Jack Trippa
Let me be bambino on your snipples
YKK on yo zippa lick you like a lizard
When I'm slizzard or sober 6 million ways to fold ya
Like Noahs I get two's of you and you get pretty deep
But I'll call yo ass round 8-ish I know you'll be there for me
Cause
 
Chorus
 
Those huge baby eyes get to runnin off at they mouth
Tellin me everything that's on yo nasty mind
They say your malnutrition in need of vitamin D
And inviting me to that tingle in yo spine
I love who you are I love who ya ain't you so Anne Frank
Let's hit the attic to hide out for bout two weeks
Rick James and no chains and whips I do suck lips
Till hips jerk and double time the boy next door's a freak
Ha Ha
 
Chorus
 
(Ah we are...) the coolest motherfunkers on the planet
(Ah my my...) the sky is fallin ain't no need to panic
(Ah ooh ooh ....) I got a stick and want yo automatic
(Ah ooh ooh...) Compatible created in the attic
(repeat)

Outkast - Jazzy Belle Lyrics

Outkast - Jazzy Belle Video

Andre
Yeah
Oh yes I love her like Egyptian, want a description, my royal highness
So many plusses when I bust that there can't be no minus
Went from yellin' crickets and crows, bitches and hoes to queen things
Over the years I been up on my toes and yes I seen things
Like Kilroy, chill boi because them folks might think you soft
Talkin' like that, man fuck them niggaz I'm goin' off
And comin' right back, like boomerangs when you throw em
With these old ghetto poems, Bankhead is better for em
When they can let they throw em, down from hitchikin' and bitin' niggas
Until the temple they call the body, now everybody got it
Had it, talked about it amongst they friends
Comin' around my crew lookin Jazzy, wanna pretend
Like you Ms. Goodie, Four-Shoes, even Bo knew, that you got caught poked
Like accupuncture patients while our nation is a boat
Straight sinkin', I hate thinkin' that these the future mommas
Of our chillun, they fuckin' a different nigga every time
They get the feelin' to, I'm willin' to go the extra kilo-meter
Just to see my senorita get her pillow
On the side of my bed where no good ever stay
House and doctor was the games we used to play
But now it's real Jazzy Belle...
 
Big Boi
See what if you was a playa, real playa not no slouch
Havin' the very best of life lots of steak and Perignon
Smokin' an ounce of weed yeah every single day was personal FreakNik
Freakin' these hoes in Polo clothes life as you conceived it
But your conception, deception, lookin' into your eyes I see
Your weapon and it's depressin', they're diggin' up in your thighs
Leavin' deposits keepin your closets open knockin' your boots and jaws
Hopin' to get you sprung like bell-bottoms, steadily callin' me Antwan
Cause you thinkin' that you my lady bitch don't play me cause you're chanky
I wanted to hit that ass but me and the Goodie we got danky
So thank thee, you runnin' that Southerplayalistic game
You was the only one to blame, a nigga don't even know yo name
It's a shame, you crackin' em up and fuckin' a nigga like Tupac up
I'm leavin' these foes to be the flowers and wake don't get me see
I gotta be feedin' my daughter, teach her to be that Natural Woman
Cause you'll be Waiting to Exhale while you other hoes be
Dumb and Dumber, yeah you know what I'm sayin?
 
Andre, Big Boi
One two, yessss, ummkay, check this out right here now
See me ain't no good, in the black on black 'Llac no star
Windows are tinted so that no one knows who us are
Talk bad about her nigga guaranteed to snap like bra
Strap stickin' together like grandma and grandpa-pa
In this dog eat dog world, kitty cats be scratchin' on my
Furry coat to curl, up with me and my bowl of kibbles and bits
I want to earl, cause most of the girls that we was likin'
In high school, now they dykein' *laughin*
 
Havin' no mercy for the disrespect-ful ones, some
Be hangin' around the crew lookin' for funds, dumb
Deaf and fine, they be, askin' me all about mine
How she doin' how she be, I know she's sippin' that wine
Behind my back they skwak like vultures
Off and On like Trendz of Cultures baby
Hey he, fakin' it like these sculptured, nails
But they can go to hell and lay with Lucifer
Cause they burnin' anyway, Big Boi user and abuser

Outkast - Da Art Of Storytellin' (Part 1) Lyrics

Outkast - Da Art Of Storytellin' (Part 1) Video

Yea
Somebody hit me the other day for a rendezvous
Was it the bitch that fucked to Goodie and the Dungen Crew
Lets say her name was suzy screw cuz she SCREWED alot
Makin a nigga hit that chonk, at ligitimate spots
Not no parks, backseats, or things of that nature
Had to hate ya playa, im dickin the hoe down never said i paid her
Straight laid her, slayed the bitch like Darth Vader, made her
From College Park and Fayetter, all the way down to Decatur
Like jada, her wig was sharp and sporty, that was shorty
Safe as a snake on eggs in a beamer 840
Its foggy, i went to the crib to call her but she lost me
My baby mamma beeped 7 o'clock its gonna cost me
But i still wanna cut her tho, maybe she had to work
Caught her at the mall, wearin a real tight skirt
She was fine as FUCK i wanted to sex the hoe up
She said lets hit the parkin lot so i can sick your duck
I said cool i really wanted to cut you but this'll do,
I gotta pick up my daughter cuz my baby mamma beeped me too
She said she understood then everythin was kosher
I gave her a lil will CD and a fuckin poster
Its like that now
 
Its like that now
You better go get the hump up out your back now
Its about 4 5 cats off in my 'Lac now
We just shoot game in the form of story rap now
* (yeah)*
Its like that now, its like that now
 
(andre)
Now suzy skrew had a parna named sasha * (sasha)* thumper * (thumper)*
I remember her # like the summer
When her and suzy yea they threw a slumber---party
But you can not call it that cuz it was slummer
Well it was more like spend the night
3 in the mornin yawnin dancin under street lights
We chillin like a villian and a nigga feelin right
In the middle of the ghetto on the curb, but in spite
All of the bullshit we on our back starin at the stars above
* (awww man)* talkin bout what we gonna be when we grow up
I said what you wanna be? she said alive * (hmm)*
It made me think for a minute, then looked in her eyes
I coulda died, time went on, i got grown
Rhyme got strong, mind got blown, i came back home
To find lil sasha was gone
Her mamma said she with a nigga that be treatin her wrong
I kept on singin my song and hopin at a show
I would one day see her standin in the front row
But 2 weeks later she got found in the back of a school
With a needle in her arm, baby 2 months due, Sasha Thumper
 
Its like that now
You better go get the hump up out your back now
Its about 4 5 cats off in my 'Lac now
We just shoot game in the form of story rap now
* (yeah)*
Its like that now, its like that now
 
Its like that now
You better go get the hump up out your back now
Its about 4 5 cats off in my 'Lac now
We just shoot game in the form of story rap now

Outkast - I'll Call Before I Come Video

Hook
I'll call before i come
I won't just pop over out the blue
I hope that you do to
I'll call before i come
I won't just pop over out the blue
No after u
 
Oh thank you lord for throwing some shy
Bones in my body let me tell you why
If not so i'd be too, too bad
When it comes to pink polka dots and plaids
Golda to meet you, my name is Dre
But you can call me possum allawishes jenkins
Andre 3000 for short
And naaw i don't want to see your thongs
I kinda like them old school cute regular draws
And will pause for your cause
Hook
 
I'm a gentleman, i'm gonna satishfy your soul
And then i'm gonna get mine
Like wimbledon we back and forth across the court
Untl we give out do you take it or spit it
Are you faking the funk andliving a lie
Do you really know what it feels like to have no control over the g spot
It's like a brand new pair or reeboks or a junkie freshly detoxed
You feel the tingling all over the convulstions or the rooster pox
I used to not give a dame but now i make it a point just to please you
So you can go back and tell all your buddies
Pretty d'd you
Hook
 
Let's see what you wanna do with the gangsta boo
Let's cut, nigga, nugga what
I'll cut you too
Coming through in a escalade limo tint with shade
Purple haze in the ashtray ready to get a balze
What the biz nigga jump on in relaz wit a lady
Wit a reputation known for sexing niggz till they crazy
Whatcha mean dog, tellina player like boo to call before i come
You a game i'm fuching you for fun
Join the bandwagon join come and freak wit somebody
Riding jaguars, riding prowlers and sports cars
Hitting strip bars wit the top down, fuch y'all
Groupie you need to be glad you even knew me
Do me and tell all my friends you truly blew me
Hook
 
Nigga you better dial 404-485 well bump all that
But shit yo'd better call before you get here and that's a fact
Before you get your feelings hurt
Because you caught me playing nurse
Wit a stethoscope running around in one of those chute short white skirts
I tired to tell you, but you wouldn't respond to idle wishes
Peepind in the window saw me cooking shrimp in high heels and washing dishes
For daddy fat sax and it's something i couldn't explain
I know it's a dirty, dirty game. but you should called before you came

Outkast - Roses Lyrics

Outkast - Roses Video

Caroline!
(Caroline!)
See, Caroline, all the guys would say she's mighty fine
(mighty fine)
But mighty fine only got you somewhere half the time
And the other half either got you cussed out, or coming up short
Yeah, dig this now, even though
(even though)
You'd need a golden calculator to divide
(to divide)
The time it took to look inside and realize that
Real guys go for real down-to-Mars girls, yeah
 
I know you'd like to think your shit don't stank
But lean a little bit closer
See roses really smell like ooo poo poo
Yeah, roses really smell like ooo poo poo
I know you'd like to think your shit don't stank
But lean a little bit closer
See roses really smell like ooo poo poo
Yeah, roses really smell like ooo poo poo
 
Caroline!
(Caroline!)
I said see she's the reason for the word bitch
(bitch)
I hope she's speeding on the way to the club
Trying to hurry up to get to some
Baller or singer or somebody like that
And try to put on her makeup in the mirror
And crash, crash, crash... into a ditch
(Just playing)
She needs a golden calculator to divide
(to divide)
The time it took to look inside and realize that
Real guys go for real down-to-Mars girls, yeah
 
I know you'd like to think your shit don't stank
But lean a little bit closer
See roses really smell like ooo poo poo
Yeah, roses really smell like ooo poo poo
I know you'd like to think your shit don't stank
But lean a little bit closer
See roses really smell like ooo poo poo
Yeah, roses really smell like ooo poo poo
 
Well she's got a hottie's body, but her attitude is potty
When I met her at a party she was hardly acting naughty
I said, Shorty would you call me?
She said, Pardon me, are you ballin'?
I said Darling, you sound like like like a prostitute, pausing
Oh, so you're one them freaks, get geeked at the sight of ATM receipt
But game been peeped, dropping names she's weak
Trickin' off this bitch is lost
Must take me for a geek a quick way to eat
A neat place sleep, a rent-a-car for a week, a trick for a treat
No-go on the raw sex, my AIDS test is flawless
Regardless, we don't want to get involved with all them lawyers
And judges just to hold grudges in a courtroom
I wanna see your support bra, not support you
 
I know you'd like to think your shit don't stank
But lean a little bit closer
See roses really smell like ooo poo poo
Yeah, roses really smell like ooo poo poo
 
I know you'd like to think your shit don't stank
But lean a little bit closer
See roses really smell like ooo poo poo
Yeah, roses really smell like ooo poo poo
 
I know you'd like to think your shit don't stank
But lean a little bit closer
See roses really smell like ooo poo poo
Yeah, roses really smell like ooo poo poo
 
I know you'd like to think your shit don't stank
But lean a little bit closer
See roses really smell like ooo poo poo
Yeah, roses really smell like ooo poo poo
 
Better come back down to Mars
Girl, quit chasin' cars
What happens when the dope gets low
Bitch, you ain't that fine
No way... no way... no way
Better come back down to Mars
Girl, quit chasin' cars
What happens when the dope gets low
Bitch, you ain't that fine
No way... no way... no way
 
Crazy bitch

Old punk ass bitch, old dumbass bitch
A bitch's bitch, just a bitch
Crazy bitch
Bitch, stupid ass bitch
Old punk ass bitch, old dumbass bitch
A bitch's bitch, just a bitch

Outkast - The Whole World Lyrics

Outkast - The Whole World Video

breathing hard
Okay, here we go
 
Andre:
Yeah I'm afraid, like I'm scared as a dog
But I've got a new song, and I want y'all to sing along
Sing along..
See this is the way that ya walk on a sunny day
When it's rainin inside and you're, all alone
All alone yeah!
 
Chorus:
Cause the whole world, loves it when you don't get down
(Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da )
And the whole world, loves it when you make that sound
(Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da )
And the whole world, loves it when you're in the news
(Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da )
And the whole world, loves it when you sing the blues
(Bah bah-da, bah bah bah-da )
 
Andre:
Take a little trip, hater back up yo' mind
Look forward not behind, then you'll see what you find
I caught a sucker dyin cause he thought could rhyme
Now if his momma is a quarter daughter must be a dime
I gotta meet her, don't take no shorts I don't use abbrevi-
-ation, I don't even play the radio neither
Only if I need to know the sports or the weather
I'm a cool type of brother but yep, your head I'll sever
From the neck see ain't nuttin changed, hit the stage
Set a date sucker, in battle we can engage
I'll slice you, wife you, marry you, divorce you
Throw the Porsche at you, is what I'm forced to do
With my back against the wall, crack his back y'all
Naw, it ain't went nowhere like havin hair with stylin gel in it
Throw a curl in it
Dread that nappy shit fuck, throw a shell in it
Whatever floats your boat, or finds your lost remote
And this for dem niggaz workin at the airport
Who got laid off, I take my shades off
If you look straight in my eyes, you still might see a disguise
Because the whole, whole, world, world
 
-Chorus-
 
Killer Mike:
Player I grind, my focus is crime
Raw with the rhyme, I'm slick with the slime
My words are diamonds dug out a mine
Spit 'em, polish, look how they shine
Glitter, glisten, gloss, floss
I catch a beat runnin like Randy Moss
Ride dat bitch off like a brand new horse
I'm rollin my stone, gatherin no moss
Mami I'm comin I hope you get off
Or rock your own boat like Aaliyah then talk
Back, back, forth, forth
Get that sailor on fourth fourth
Make that track a fourth fouth
Rap, roll, utterly rocked
With my mouth to the mic and my hand on my cock
Cadillac OutKast just won't stop
 
-Chorus-
 
Big Boi:
Turn on the TV and everything is lookin dismal
Went in the bathroom medicine cabinet Pepto-Bismal
Need it for my stomach cause my tummy kinda aches
Like a junkie on withdrawal, fresh up off the plate
Wait, back to the enemy of the state
Is the Republicans or Democratic candidate
Debate, now even the black box hold the fate
Clueless like Shaggy and Scooby befo' commercial break
Hate, extreme prejudice, let's dismiss this
If you want to you can dub it to your hit list
I know you gon' to, we in this to replenish yo' musical wish list
When it come to this music we stay relentless
Pursuing all that's pursuable
Doing God's willing all things that are do able
The only liable limitation is to self
Dre set it on the right and I set it on the left, cause

Outkast - Prototype Video

I hope that you are the one
If not, you are the prototype
We'll tiptoe to the sun
And do things I know you like
 
I think I'm in love again
I think I'm in love again

Baby, you are the prototype
Do sumn' outta the ordinary
Like catch a matinee
Baby, you are the prototype
I think I'm...
 
I think I'm in love again
I think I'm in love again

Lord knows I don't want that
But hey, we can't be mad at God
We met today for a reason
I think I'm on the right track now
 
I think I'm in love again
I think I'm in love again
 
Let's go, let's go to the movies
 
(And...action!)
 
I think I'm in love again...
 
Girl, right now I wanna say, I wanna say

Outkast - Aquemini Lyrics

Outkast - Aquemini Video

Chorus
Even the sun goes down heroes eventually die
Horoscopes often lie and sometimes Y
Nothing is for sure, nothing is for certain, nothing lasts forever
But until they close the curtain, it's him and I, Aquemini
 
Big Boi
Now is the time to get on, like Spike Lee said, Get on the bus
Go get your work and keep your beeper chirping is a must
Is you on the that dust or cornstarch familiar with that smack man
The music is like that green stuff provided to you by sack man
Pacman how and the fuck you think we gon do that man
Riding around Old National on 18's without no gat man
Im strapped man and already to bust on any nigga like that man
Me and my nigga we roll together like Batman and Robin
We prayed together through hard times and swung hard when it was fittin
But now we tappin the breaks from all of them corners that we be headin in a
Volkswagen and Bonnevilles, Chevrolets and Coupe de Villes
If you ain't got no rims nigga don't go get wood grain steering wheel
For real you can gon chill out and still build
Let your paper stack instead of going into overkill
Pay ya fuckin beeper bill bitch
 
Chorus x2
 
Andre Benjamin
Twice upon a time there was a boy who died and
Lived happily ever after but that's anotha chapter live
From home of the brave with dirty dollas
And beauty parlors, and baby bottles and bowling ball impalas
And street scholars that majoring in culinary arts
You know how to work bread, cheese, and dough
From scratch but see the catch is you can get caught
Know what ya selling, what cha bought so cut that big talk
Lets walk to the bridge now meet me half way
Now you may see some children dead off in the pathway
Its them poor babies walkin slowly to the candy lady
It's lookin bad need some hope like the words maybe if or problay
More than a hobby when my turntables get wobbly they dont fall
I'm sorry y'all I often drift I'm talkin gift
So when it comes you never look the horse inside its grill
Of coarse you know I feel like a bearer of bad news
Don't want to be it but its needed so what have you
Now question is every nigga wit dreads for the cause?
Is every nigga with golds for the fall?..nah
So don't get caught in appearance
Its OutKast Aquemini another black experience
 
OKAY
 
Chorus x2
 
Big Boi
The name is Big Boi Daddy fat sax the nigga that like them Cadillacs
I stay down with these streets cause these strets is where my folks at
Betta know that some say we pro-black boy we professional
We missed a lot of church so the music is our confessional
Get off the testicles and the nut sacks you must bust a rhyme we must bust back
Get get back for reals niggas that's out here trying to spit facts
You here dat you cant come near dat maybe you need yo quit
Because Aquemini is Aquarius and Gemini runnin shit like this/(Yea Yea Yea)
 
Andre Benjamin
My mind warps and bends floats the wind count to ten
Meet the twin Andre Ben welcome to the lion's den
Original skin many men comprehend
I extend myself so you go out tell a friend
Sin all depends on what you believing in
Faith is what you make it, that's the hardest shit since MC Ren
Alien can blend right on in wit yo kin
Look again cause I swear I spot one every now and then
It's happening again wish I could tell you when
Andre this is Andre y'all just gon have to make amends
