I've given and been taken
Time has made me wise
You can't negotiate it - between the sheets and in the lines

I tried to be healthy, wealthy and wise
It's trouble that made me just a victim of your lies
I say no - I won't be what you want me to be
And so you can't tell if I'm fake or if I'm real

I'm just a rude boy - I don't pay no mind
I got a big stick - it makes a big noise
I won't start no fight - again I might
My reputation's got a life of it's own

A mover who can shake her
Ruffled feathers of the best
The еarth - I tried to quake her
I put it to thе test
I said no - I won't buy what you want me to sell
So I won't show what you want me to tell

I'm just a rude boy - I don't pay no mind
I got a big stick - it makes a big noise
I won't start no fight - again I might
My reputation's got a life of it's own
I'm bolder and I'm wiser
I've seen what you believe
But if you look for trouble
I'm more than you conceived
