Say ho everybody say ho

bop po quay yo

I said shake your soul like way back in the day yo

bop po quay yo everybody say ho

Everybody say hooooo hooo

Everybody say ho

And check it out now

Who is cat eating out on the town

And make the whole dining room turn they head around

With the bass on pump(?)

Who be riding up in the highrise elevator

Other tenants who be praying they ain't the new neighbor

Mr Nigga, Nigga Nigga

They try to play him like a chump

VIP at the club, backstage at the show

(Yes y'all) the best crib, the best clothes

Hottest whips on the road

Neck and wrists on froze (say word)

Straight all across the globe

Watch got three time-zones

Keep a digital phone up to his dome

Two assistants

Two bank accounts, two homes

One problem

Even with the O's on his check

"Is there a problem officer?"

Damn straight, it's called race

That motivate the jake (woo-woo) to give chase

Say they want you successful, but that ain't the case

You livin large, your skin is dark

They flash a light in your face

Now, who is cat dining out on the town

Me'tradie wanna take a whole year to sit him down

Mr Nigga, Nigga Nigga

He got the speakers in the trunk

With the bass on pump(?)

Now, who is the cat a
