Check it out bitch
See sometimes
You gotta realize
Where you are in your life
In order to feel good and I feel good baby
Listen to me
Walk in the club with a bunch of thugs
Modify ya brains so they call me drugs
See a hundred girls, get a thousand hugs
One's in my ear talking bout her tub
She likes me
She say she needs me
Say she wants me
'Cause I'm the shit
Said she likes me
She said she needs me
She wants to see me
'Cause I'm the shit
Now it seems that things are really getting better
In my life
Is it just today or things are really getting better
We'll see tonight
We'll see tonight
Hey little girl with the tattoo thigh
Baby you look like a slice of pie
Hope my style don't cause you fear
Matter of fact baby, where you goin' from here?
Kiss on me baby
Lick on me baby
But you can't own me baby
'Cause I'm the shit
Kiss on me baby
Lick on me baby
But you can't own me baby
'Cause I'm the shit
Now it seems that things are really getting better
In my life
Is it just today or things are really getting better
We'll see tonight
We'll see tonight
Now it seems that things are really getting better
In my life
Is it just today or things are really getting better
We'll see tonight
We'll see tonight
Check it out now
Don't look at me like? What is up?
Said I was a nerd, but I ain't a punk
If you talk shit be prepared to thump
Plus Terrar's 44 is prepared to dump
Watch out boy
Get back then
Watch how you're acting
'Cause I'm the shit
I'm telling you watch out now
Tell ya boys to get back then
Watch how ya'll acting
'Cause we the shit
Now it seems that things are really getting better
In my life
Is it just today or things are really getting better
We'll see tonight
We'll see tonight
Now it seems that things are really getting better
In my life
Is it just today or things are really getting better
We'll see tonight
We'll see tonight
Now it seems that things are really getting better
In my life
Is it just today or things are really getting better
We'll see tonight
We'll see tonight
Now it seems that things are really getting better
In my life
Is it just today or things are really getting better
We'll see tonight
We'll see tonight
How do you feel?
I feel good
How do you feel?
I feel good
How do you feel?

Girl, girl, girl
Girl, girl, girl
