Am I Worth You? — текст песни (De La Soul f Glenn Lewis)

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Ooh, ooh yeah

[Verse 1]
It`s a pity that you`re so dirty
Worthy of some Southern hos-pital
See we them Northern boys with nose and hows
NYC livin` ain`t nothin` like it
See how me and my peeps fit, we jigsaw
Sometimes I play big saw to cut the deal
And we keepin` them bills paid with meals in the mouths of many
A noble job at Feni
Money ain`t everything but everything makes me want it
But won`t dishonor my name so the claim throwers
Act like game on the dice on the mic device
Stay above middle class for life
Not an easy task but I`ve grown to love it
Dub it to tape, why don`t you whip a grin
While I speak to my mens about the world problems
And girl problems with no immediate way to solve em`
But I`m on hits

[Chorus]
I make the best of the life I be with it
Making the most of the moment among the livin`
And it feels good
Being the man that I want to be
Do what I can cause I refuse to see
The best of luxury, God`s been good to me
Now I`m asking am I worthy of you, of you
Am I worthy of you

[Verse 2]
Pull them quarters down
I got some things on these nine ounces to vamp
Me on a mission y`all
Dug fresh dirt out the ground
Lookin` for the treasures in life
A bambino picket fence around the residence
I wore these shackels here for thirteen years
But the only real slaves is the ones we record on
We off all checks and God`s blessin`
Tryin` to own a thousand island like we salad dressin`
Patience for the main course
Don`t have me in position to remain boss
Cause the man next to the man above the exec
Don`t give a damn if I papered yet
Sometimes it make me wanna go make a bet
I did away with knock em` and release some stress
By any means, these petty greens will only get me stuck in a box
Doin` a dick shot in Oz, jerkin` off in the J
But anyway I keep my head on

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
I know people who tippy-toe through they own stompin` ground
Master not makin` a sound to stay safe
From the local star renaissance
And the response is usually the same
Wishin` like it used to be
Nothin` in that life is new to me
We roll like eyes on a ghetto girl
Brushin` off some no-man cause she`s his ghetto pearl
We into livin` beyond not livin` fads
Me and my comrads became dads young
Try to have fun amongst responsibility
Like fillin` these accounts full
Got caught up at a party in Bull`s
Sometimes gotta have the nerve to say some rhymes
Because some minds take offense
Try to make ya life tense but we still here
Still gainin` the love, still standin` above most

[Chorus to end]
