[Intro]
Yo, when I released my first single back in like '86
People was like, "Oh you know, that's popcorn" and you know, "they weak"
You know, then I mess around, I go World Trade on them
Bangin' out them multi-plats, they still got negativity to bring
My thing is you can't say nothing nice, don't say nothing
[Verse 1]
Take your place, allow me to flex a taste
As my accomplishments bring up my comp like Mase
Face me the star of stage and TV
My face be seen in almost every country
Grammy winner, soon to be Oscar nominee
Who he? "That's dressed Jiggy, straight from West Philly"
Thought I was whack 'cause I wanted to act
Now every brother and his mother that rap be trying to do that
The ill kid, hundred million dollar bill kid
The one you love to chill with; come on, keep it real, kid!
Don't try to act like this summer at the greek
You won't be bumpin' the big Willie in your jeep
I know y'all still feel me, really, don't act silly
Thought I feel off just because I left Philly
Took a break from the rap thing, went on hiatus
I picked up the art of acting and multiplied papers
I chilled on silk sofas, chatting with Oprah
She asked me if it's true that me and Jeff broke up
While y'all kids busy playing drug pimp and playa
I was at my crib in Barbados, chillin' with Jada
Vertex is me, the magnanimous
Got you sayin' "Damn, I've always been a fan of his!"
Y'all know how it is, oh wait, hold up, y'all don't!
Look here, y'all don't say nothing, then I won't
[Hook]
Just don't say nothing (Don't say nothing)
Just don't say nothing (Don't say nothing)
[Verse 2]
Man, I love being me ready to rock ya block
With some more hot top notch **** for you to cop
No more Mr. Nice Guy
My whole life I've been smiling when I felt like whiling
Jealousy swinging on me made his attack
(He soft, he whack; man, that ain't real rap!)
You believe that? It hurt me at first, but it's cool
Took the insults fed em' to my ego used it for fuel
Now everywhere I turn a dead end
Hundred women coming at me waving pads and pens
And they be screaming out, "Oh my lord!
Did you see it's that brother from ID4?"
"Now, can I please get (a picture and your signature?)" "Sure you can, miss"
"Oh my god, my girlfriends, they ain't gonna believe this!"
Worldwide, wait! Nah, hold up, galactic
Hear my name, don't nothing change but the accent
Bangkok to Madagascar, they wanna see me
Prince epe in Spain; Japan, I'm cota eshe
I like my steaks thick and my jets private
And my son to ride in the cockpit
I know he's only four, taking lessons from the pilot
While I'm on my cell with my broker getting stock tips
Find a magazine and I read the hottest gossip
Man, who'd've thought my life would be such an interesting topic?
Well y'all know how it is, wait, hold up, y'all don't!
Well look here, y'all don't say nothing, then I won't
[Hook]
Just don't say nothing (Don't say nothing)
Just don't say nothing (Don't say nothing)
Just don't say nothing (Don't say nothing)
Just don't say nothing (Don't say nothing)
[Verse 3]
Go ahead, adjust the balance and the bass in your speakers
Make sure my voice sounding crisp in your tweeters
I'm about to show you how a man like me works
My shorty get ice five carrots and nothing cheaper
Four five chromed out former two seater
Fifty inch Sony to watch Siskel and Ebert
'Cause I'm about to get two thumbs up, ten toes
One knee and probably a couple of elbows
'Cause yo, I'm the man and the whole world knows
Rock film festivals and rap shows
And to all the critics jealous people and back-stabbers
And my so-called friends, who been nothing but actors
You're way outta character, but now who's the bomb?
It's Will from West Phil', just slightly transformed
[Outro]
Y'all know what it is
Ah damn, that's right, y'all don't!
But look here, y'all don't say nothing, then trust me, I won't!
[Hook]
Just don't say nothing (Don't say nothing)
Just don't say nothing (Don't say nothing)
Just don't say nothing (Don't say nothing)
Just don't say nothing (Don't say nothing)
