[Noreaga] *DeBarge sings in background*

Y'know what I mean? This for the woman y'know what'm sayin? Coming up just

trying to get a nut. Y'all really understand what we doing. Ya know? Y'all

understand that we hurting y'all y'all come attatched. It's all good. This

[Noreaga]

I used to cut pies in front of my girl, now I apologized

The reason why: (My fault) she seen the red in my eyes

When I was cuttin it, feelin like the archives

Choppin it down, thinkin I'm, choosing my prize

Said, "Paps, we know the jake 'ill try to knock you"

You do your thing, boo, I'll still be there, don't mean to knock you

I know its hard fuckin with a thug nigga like me

Thinkin would I get locked?

Come home tonight or not?

Black Princess, kiss you when I see you

White women suntan and try to be you

The ?Mellanin? in your skin, make it all see-through

Sometimes he hurt y'all, not understanding what we doing

Sweatin at the foul line like Pat Ewing

Yo from all the brothers

I dedicate to the mothers

My mother, grandmother of the Earth

If it wasn't for women, then it wouldn't be birth

What, its all real

Chorus [Chico DeBarge]

We're just some thug people (That's what we are)

That's what we are, trying hard to change the way we live

Trying hard to change the way life we live
