가사
[Intro]
I got a bone to pick
I don't want you monkey-mouth motherfuckers sittin' in my throne again (Aye, aye ****, what's happenin' ****? K-Dot back in the hood, ****)
I'm mad (He mad)
But I ain't stressin'
True friends
One question
[Chorus]
Bitch, where you when I was walkin'?
Now I run the game, got the whole world talkin'
King Kunta
Everybody wanna cut the legs off him
Kunta, black man taking no losses (Oh, yeah)
Bitch, where you when I was walkin'?
Now I run the game, got the whole world talkin'
King Kunta
Everybody wanna cut the legs off him
When you got the yams (What's the yams?)
[Verse 1]
The yam is the power that be
You can smell it when I'm walking down the street (Oh, yes, we can, oh, yes, we can)
I can dig rappin'
But a rapper with a ghostwriter
What the fuck happened? (Oh, no)
I swore I wouldn't tell
But most of ya share bars like you got the bottom bunk in a two-man cell (A two-man cell)
Something's in the water (Something's in the water)
And if I got a brown nose for some gold
Then I'd rather be a bum than a motherfuckin' baller
[Chorus]
Bitch, where you when I was walkin'?
Now I run the game, got the whole world talkin'
King Kunta
Everybody wanna cut the legs off him
King Kunta
Black man taking no losses (Oh, yeah)
Bitch, where you when I was walkin'?
Now I run the game, got the whole world talkin'
King Kunta
Everybody wanna cut the legs off him (King Kunta)
When you got the yams (What's the yams?)
[Verse 2]
The yam brought it outta Richard Pryor
Manipulated Bill Clinton with desires
Twenty-four-seven, three-sixty-five days times two
I was contemplatin' gettin' on stage
Just to go back to the hood, see my enemy and say (Oh, yeah)
[Chorus]
Bitch, where you when I was walkin'?
Now I run the game, got the whole world talkin'
King Kunta
Everybody wanna cut the legs off him
King Kunta
Black man taking no losses (Oh, yeah)
Bitch, where you when I was walkin'?
Now I run the game, got the whole world talkin'
King Kunta
Everybody wanna cut the legs off him (You goat-mouth mammyfucker)
[Verse 3]
I was gonna kill a couple rappers, but they did it to themselves
Everybody's suicidal, they didn't even need my help
This shit is elementary, I'll probably go to jail
If I shoot at your identity and bounce to the left
Stuck a flag in my city
Everybody screamin', "Compton"
I should probably run for Mayor
When I'm done, to be honest
And I put that on my Mama
And my baby boo, too
Twenty million walkin' out the court buildin', woo-woo
[Verse 4]
Ah yeah, fuck the judge
I made it past twenty-five, and there I was
A little nappy-headed **** with the world behind him
Life ain't shit but a fat vagina
Screamin', "Annie, are you okay?
Annie, are you okay?"
Limo tinted with the gold plates
Straight from the bottom, this the belly of the beast
From a peasant to a prince
To a motherfuckin' king (Oh, yeah)
[Bridge]
Bitch, where you when I was walkin'?
By the time you hear the next pop
The funk shall be within you
[Chorus]
Now I run the game got the whole world talkin'
King Kunta
Everybody wanna cut the legs off him
King Kunta
Black man taking no losses (Oh, yeah)
Bitch, where you when I was walkin'?
Now I run the game, got the whole world talkin'
King Kunta
Everybody wanna cut the legs off him
[Chorus]
Funk, funk, funk, funk, funk, funk, funk, funk, funk, funk, funk
We want the funk
We want the funk (Now if I give you the funk, you gon' take it?)
We want the funk (Now if I give you the funk, you gon' take it?)
We want the funk (Now if I give you the funk, you gon' take it?)
We want the funk (Do you want the funk?)
We want the funk (Do you want the funk?)
We want the funk (Now if I give you the funk, you gon' take it?)
We want the funk
[Outro]
I remember you was conflicted, misusing your influence
