"What You Want From Me" lyrics
[Obie Trice:]
Damn!
'Cause I got a deal, you see? ('Cause I got a deal, you see?)
Niggas wanna be owning me (Niggas wanna be owning me)
And I know that you beggin', "Please"
What about my family?
Oh-ooh-woah-woah
You don't hear me (You don't hear me)
Just wanna be near me (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Maybe 'cause a nigga so timid (Never seen a nigga more timid)
What do you want from me? (what do you want from me?)
I know your like, back and forth to work, and Obie's like, back and forth from a different part of earth
But back and forth is life, right? It hurts
You let it take a toll, the real you exposed
Those who catch feelings 'cause I'm dealin'
No crack but rap, that's lords willin'
Got a nigga feet and he's [?]
They took me out of that same condition, imprisoning black children (Woo)
Now I'm a lame description, all the hood is tension
'Cause I'll entertain, and you oil change (Haha)
Main, I've been the same since I came out the womb post '76
Input me in the mix so it's Hammer Time-
[Eminem:]
(Whoo Kid!)
What the fuck?!
Ayo Whoo Kid run that shit back, goddamn!
[Obie Trice:]
'Cause I got a deal, you see? ('Cause I got a deal, you see?)
Niggas wanna be owning me (Niggas wanna be owning me)
And I know that you beggin', "Please"
What about my family?
Oh-ooh-woah-woah
You don't hear me (You don't hear me)
Just wanna be near me (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Maybe 'cause a nigga so timid (Never seen a nigga more timid)
What do you want from me? (what do you want from me?)
(Whoo Kid!)
I know your like, back and forth to work, and Obie's like, back and forth from a different part of earth
But back and forth is life, right? It hurts
You let it take a toll, the real you exposed
Those who catch feelings 'cause I'm dealin'
No crack but rap, that's lords willin'
Got a nigga feet and he's [?]
They took me out of that same condition, imprisoning black children (Woo)
Now I'm a lame description, all the hood is tension
'Cause I'll entertain, and you oil change (Haha)
Main, I've been the same since I came out the womb post '76
Input me in the mix so it's Hammer Time
That's why I handle mine like I'm in the money grind
You know it's funny I've sold a million records but I'm no executive, I'm lookin' for the objective cut
So you sweatin', what? I don't flex my bucks
I keep my paper tucked 'cause I know tomorrow sucks (That's right)
Why should we both be in the flux when I'm a being (One being)
Graduated from beans to a beings (To a beings)
If we friends, my nigga, then you would see him
Rise from [?] the worlds buying my denim
And O Trice and Em, that's when niggas killin' 'em
'Cause I got a deal, you see? ('Cause I got a deal, you see?)
Niggas wanna be owning me (Niggas wanna be owning me)
And I know that you beggin', "Please"
What about my family? (Whoo Kid!)
Oh-ooh-woah-woah
You don't hear me (Shady Records!)
Just wanna be near me (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Maybe 'cause a nigga so timid (Never seen a nigga more timid)
What do you want from me? (what do you want from me?)
So tell me, if the dough get low, and the glow is gone
Are you a no-show, or a nigga O can count on?
Countless times I splurged my dimes
Some say his ass is not emerging from the ground
But hey, I remember my [?]
Spend it on the corner gettin' ate, when I'm cuttin' up grapes
Lord, forsake me for wanting to live majorly
For wanting to put the homie who neighbored me in the major leagues (Woo)
Basically, there's no fake in me
Obie's fatefully dedicated to the streets
That's your mans origin, taught me how to eat
Ends meet, you got peeps, ends delete, the peace sign is a beast and that's sweet
Bleakly speakin', your interest not in me
Same niggas I was raised with since elementary
Flexin' me for dough
But I ain't cinematic, I ain't Sam Jackson or Denzel actin'
I'm a rapper, rappin' on tracks
Tryna reach platinum plaques, but I ain't the cat to fall back to
When your smack is wacked up, and things go a block past you, with the cracked tuff (Damn!)
You got access to a nigga, why act up?
And try to take advantage of the cat that backs you
'Cause I got a deal, you see? ('Cause I got a deal, you see?)
Niggas wanna be owning me (Niggas wanna be owning me)
And I know that you beggin', "Please"
What about my family?
Oh-ooh-woah-woah
You don't hear me (You don't hear me)
Just wanna be near me (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Maybe 'cause a nigga so timid (Never seen a nigga more timid)
What do you want from me? (what do you want from me?)
(Whoo Kid!)
Damn!
'Cause I got a deal, you see? ('Cause I got a deal, you see?)
Niggas wanna be owning me (Niggas wanna be owning me)
And I know that you beggin', "Please"
What about my family?
Oh-ooh-woah-woah
You don't hear me (You don't hear me)
Just wanna be near me (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
