[Verse 1:]
So What If U Flip A Couple Words, I Could Triple That In Birds
Open Ya Mind, U See The Circus In The Sky
I'm Ringlin Brothers, Barnum And Bailey Wit The Pies
No Matter How U Slice It I'm Ya Muthafuckin Guy
And Just Like A B-Boy Wit 360 Waves
Do The Same Wit The Pot, Still Come Back Beige
Whether Right Or Southpaw
Whether Pot Or The Jar
Whip It Around, It Still Comes Back Hard
So Easily Do I... W-H-I-P
My Repetition Wit Riches'll Bring The Kilo Business
I Got Creole C-O Bitches
For My Niggas Who Slipped, Became Prisoners, Treats Taped To The Visitors
U Already Know What The Business Is
Unnecessary Commissary, Boy We Live This Shit
Niggas Wanna Bring The 80s Back
That's Okay Wit Me, That's Where They Made Me At
Except I Don't Write On The Wall
I Write My Name In The History Book Hustlin In The Hall
Naw, I Don't Spin On My Head
I Spin My Work In The Pot
So I Could Spend My Bread

[Chorus:]
And I'm Getting It... I'm Getting It
I Ain't Talkin About It I'm Living It
I'm Getting It... Straight Getting It G-G-G-G-G-G-Get Get It Boy
[Pharrell:] Don't Waste Your Time... Fighting The Lies
Stay Your Course... And You'll Understand (Get It Boy)

[Verse 2:]
This 87 State Of Mind That I'm In
In My Prime, So For That Time I'm Rakim
If It Wasn't For The Crime That I Was In
But I Woudn't Be The Guy Who Rhymes It Is That I'm In
... No Pain, No Profit
Pee I Repeat If U Show Me Where The Pot Is
Cherry M3s With The Top Back
Red And Green Gs All On My Hat
North Beach Leathers
Matchin Gucci Sweaters
Gucci Sneaks On 2 Keep My Outfit Together
Whatever... Hundred 4 The Diamond Chain
Can't U Tell That I Came From The Dope Game
Blame Reagan For Making Me Into A Monster
Blame Oliver North And Iran Contra
I Ran Contraband That They Sponsored
Before This Rhyming Stuff We Was In Concert

[Chorus:]
And I'm Getting It... I'm Getting It
I Ain't Talkin About It I'm Living It
I'm Getting It... Straight Getting It G-G-G-G-G-G-Get Get It Boy
[Pharrell:] Don't Waste Your Time... Fighting The Lies
Stay Your Course... And You'll Understand (Get It Boy)

[Verse 3:]
Push...
Money Ova Broads, U Got It, Fuck Bush
Chef... Guess What I Cooked
Baked Alot Of Bread And Kept It Off Da Books
Rock Star... Look
Way B4 The Bars My Picture Was Gettin Took
Feds... They Like Wack Rappers
Try As They May They Couldn't Get Me On The Hook, Unh
D.A. Wanna Indict Me
'Cause Fishscales In My Veins Like A Pisces
The Pyrex Pot, Roll Up My Sleaves
Turn One Into 2 Like A Siamese...
Twin, When It End I'm a Stand As A Man
Neva Dyin On My Knees, Last Of A Dyin Breed
So Let The Champagne Pop
I Partied For A While Now I'm Back 2 The Block

[Chorus:]
And I'm Getting It... I'm Getting It
I Ain't Talkin About It I'm Living It
I'm Getting It... Straight Getting It G-G-G-G-G-G-Get Get It Boy
[Pharrell:] Don't Waste Your Time... Fighting The Lies
Stay Your Course... And You'll Understand (Get It Boy)

[Denzel Washington:]
Blue Magic... That's A Brand Name
Like Pepsi, That's A Brand Name
I Stand Behind It, I Guarantee It
They Know That Even If They Don't Know Me Anymore Than They Know The, The Chairman Of General Mills...
(... My man)
