Curtain Call

[Phonte]

Yo, yeah, huh, it's Phontigga

You know I been doing my thing

Foreign Exchange things, y'knahmsayin?

All kind of things

Then you got my brother Big Pooh

He doing his things, Dirty Pretty Things

A whole bunch of things

We gon' do this thing one last time man

It's Little Brother

Aiyyo, automatic, systematic, me and my nigga at it

Last go round for the pound, get your Instamatics

with all the pictures added, we put our stamp on it

Not being Cam'Ronish, I mean +Diplomatic+

I say what I feel till I ain't gotta say no more

I dedicate this to the A&Rs

that said LB is the game but they ain't playing ball

And all the turncoat niggas who forgot what we was playing for

So you call this the day tomorrow

It's the removal of a fixture, a complicated picture

and not even Clarissa could +explain it all+

You're mad with me? Tough tity, get a training bra

This is the marathon I have been training for

ever since me and Big Pooh was getting rental cars

Ever since Khrysis banging out on the ASR

Never leave the game, just changed the way I play the cards

[Chorus: Phonte]

Aiyyo, who them boys that make the record feel "so good"?

Turn the speakers up and let the record kill

Don't stop, you know it don't quit

But when it's curtain call, then that's all you gon' get

We do it like this, one time, make the record feel "so good"

Turn the speakers up and let the record kill

Don't stop, you know we don't quit

But when it's curtain call, then that's all you gon' get

And we do it like this

[Rapper Big Pooh]

This is it, the last monologue

Last act in the play, you can say the epilogue

New hooks to begin dear friends

You can always press rewind and relive it again

Listening in '03 made the people take notice

Shout to Binnie B even though shit was bogus

Toured around the world, came home, new deal

Chittlin Circuit out, thank Koch for the meal

Minstrel Show here looking for mass appeal

Guess they wasn't ready for the real on the real

It did what it did, know them boys bounced back

Hit drawn with a car, Gangsta Grillz got that

Boogie came through before Getback dropped

Three became two but the party ain't stop

Before the curtain close, before the music ends

Had the time of my life, let me thank you again

It's LB

[Chorus: Phonte]

[Phonte]

Yeah, shout out to all the fans that's been supporting us from day one

Big ups to y'all

Shout out to all the brothers coming up in the game

that's continuing this tradition of what we started, carrying the torch

Big ups to my peoples Tanya Morgan, J. Cole, Jay Electronica

Pac Div what up? Drake, Wale, let's ride
