He told y`all he won`t stop [2X] uh-uhh

[Puff] Remix
[Verse One: Puff Daddy]
No matter what y`all do, you never gonna stop my flow
Producer, rapper, CEO (uh-huh)
Sometimes I just sit down and think
Might have a long drink, rock my long minks
How you gonna hold me, you don`t even know me (uh-uh)
Platinum or gold, I get it sold (that`s right)
All I wanna do is see you dancin and clappin
singin and rappin, makin it happen
Keep it scorchin, more often
Tryin to leave Justin a fortune, Bad Boy
You hear what the prefix is (yeah)
I get chips to breathe on remixes (uh)
Catch me at the bar with three bitches (yeah yeah)
in the Benz that I still never drove got deep dishes (ahahah)
Playa haters, how you like me now? (how you like me?)
Bartender, hit my team with another round
See what we have, is a brand new sound
That`s why nobody can`t hold me down
You, can`t, hold, him, down
You can`t hold him down
You can`t hold me down
[repeat 4X]
Don`t y`all know you can`t hold me down [3X]
[Verse Two: Puff Daddy]
Don`t y`all know you can`t hold me down [3X]
I neither bug out and chill, nor be actin ill (remix)
No beef in nine-seven it`s time to build (yeah)
When I`m in front of thirty thou, no mistakes allowed
Cause y`all know, Puff Daddy moves the crowd (that`s right)
If I could I would, but I can`t so I ain`t gon` stop
I owe it all to the man up top (thank you)
Put hard work, into every jam we drop
And this year, I`m takin my family to the top
Uhh, remain hostile, flare out your nostril
I make hip-hop, R&B, and gospel
And y`all like, he can`t be rich (yeah)
He can`t take trips, come back and make hits (say what?)
Lamp in Cancun, lounge in the Ritz (c`mon)
What you spent on your rent, I spent on my wrist (that`s right)
Go head, be my homey now, you phony now
Your girl wanna ride my pony now (I figured)
If you hate what I do, y`all only clown
Goodfellas, you know you can`t hold us down
[Chorus]
Don`t y`all know you can`t hold me down [3X]
Don`t y`all know you can`t hold me down [3X]
[Interlude: Puff Daddy]
Shake that ass, shake that ass, shake it
[repeat 8X:] (c`mon, I see you, yeah, shake that booty
c`mon, I like that, ..., let`s go)
[Verse Three: Mase]
Now what the whole world`s been awaitin (remix), Mase in, money
makin (hah!)
Three sixes, la-dies think I`m Satan (that`s it)
Richer than the ones, found my mil (I hear you)
Yo we buy Benz like a blowout sale (that`s right)
Get yours and then hang, you do what you gotta do
I`ma firewagon, tenth powder blue
Crew powerful, no tellin what I do
See my name on billboards, and on towels too (Mase)
Damn messin wit us, that would make no sense
The more it`s `bout the money, the more we get intent
Rock baggy jeans, so you see no dough print
Live in Puff mansion, and pay no rent
See the life that I live I`m prepared for the morgue
I ain`t scared of y`all, if you scared, get a dog
See we pop bigger drinks (uh-huh) rock bigger links (yeah)
Cop bigger minks, fuck what niggaz think (fuck y`all)
[Chorus: repeat to end with Puffy talkin over it]
Don`t y`all know you can`t hold me down [3X]
Don`t y`all know you can`t hold me down [3X]
[Puff]
C`mon, you can`t hold me down
Yeah, you can`t hold me down
C`mon, can`t hold me down
You can`t hold me down
Eh-eh, you can`t hold me down
You can`t hold me down (what?)
You can`t hold me down
Ahaha, I like this
I`m gonna make you love me
I`m gonna make you love me
I`m gonna make you love, me
I`m gonna make you love me
Can`t hold me down
