Busta Rhymes
THE STATEMENT
[Intro]
Yeah, yeah
Why y'all show off
We show up

[Verse]
How many times do I gotta remind you n***as that I'm one of the greatest?
And I will just rewrite the pages of every history book while they askin' me, "Save us"
From all of this other bullshit that they be listenin' to while you just amaze us
And me and my n***as just step inside the building and they just get on their knees and they praise us
They kiss a ring and then they just might just argue and then fuss
You the only god we trust
Imperial Busta Bust, I be fuckin' shit up just because, wait
I appreciate your patience, but all you n***as should face it
There's no one that's greater than me
Thirty years later, fuck shit up like we still in basements
We want all you haters to see
Piss on your face, give you facelifts
Now shut up and cater to me
Pricelessness, bitch, I'm the nicest, I make all you haters agree
Watch the way I'm runnin' circles around on these n***as
Know why they so afraid of me
I'm only here to inspire you and set shit on fire
And give you what you came to see, see (Hold up)
(Hold up) Hold up
N***a, fuck your conversation, make sure you have my compensation
N***a, fuck you contemplating, my hungry n***as out here waiting
And know none of them n***as patient, they do not like to tolerate shit
If the money come up short, better find you a new occupation
If you lucky enough to survive the situation
I don't do good moderatin'
I stay out at all of that and mind my business
For feelin' the greatest at my obligations
Fuckin' up the street and
Fuckin' up the street and get worse when I be on my concentration
Body every individual with minimal complication
Get you some shit that be swallowin' up every nation
Just cover all accommodations
While we continue to fuck up the street in everything
I'll flatline your whole operation
N***as worry 'bout they future
I fuck up everything they use to
Walkin' back and forth and pacin', I get the streets another booster
The return of Mansa Musa
I ain't got no time to waste it
What I do, you can't replace it
Impossible to appraise it
The nicest, my n***a, prices, my n***a, we timeless
I hold all the dice, let me shake it
While we fuck shit up again and again
Securin' every win
Why you n***as talkin' basic?
Shinin' so much, how we grindin' so much
We ain't never complacent
Feeding every street forever
Me and my n***as be workin' so hard, we gettin' so much money together
Animal skin I be in
Most you n***as patent leather, we call it whatever
Most of the time, it's a pleasure to give you lyrics like a treasure
So much jewelry from an era
Give you more than you could measure
Most of you bozo-ass n***as that be movin' around
They call you birds of a feather, whether
Or not you think you hot, so you cannot fuck with me, never
See most you n***as out here think that you cool
I'll give you shit from my ancestor
And it don't matter how much you imagine
Try me if you think you better, better (Better)
