[Intro: André 3000]
(Yeah) Yeah, yeah, yeah (Woo), rrah
[Chorus: André 3000]
Old school players to new school fools
'Kast keep it jumping like kangaroos
We'll skew it on the bar-b, we ain't tryin to lose
Say, "I'll be goddamned if they done changed the rules"
Old school players to new school fools
'Kast keep it jumping like kangaroos
We'll skew it on the bar-b, we ain't tryin to lose
Say, "I'll be goddamned if they done changed the rules"
[Verse 1: André 3000]
The common denominator, the nigga numerator
Never know who the hater, niggas cater to your ego
I'm sorry like Atari, who's the cousin to Coleco
Vision, caught a RICO, back on the street like Chico
DeBarge, he large and got a 'Lac in the garage
Few parts here and there, I declare hard
My Lord, one at Clark, one at Spelman
Both know each other and it's cool, you can tell when
He step off in the party, women jump for joy
But all the wild niggas scheming, they gon' jump the boy
For spittin' all that bourgeoi', "My watch, my car"
I'm a star, I'd rather be a comet by far (Rrah, rrah)
[Chorus: André 3000]

[Verse 2: Raekwon]
Deliver this through your audio, ghetto mafioso
Grow hydro, then bag it up slow
Price that, longevity suggest make moves slow
Take time, grow eight, react nine, blow
Hydro slide raw like fuck Ronaldo
Fly ride, though, shit lookin' wild dope
Then glide, yo, flippin' the page, I go
Watch five-o, jump on my meat, ride slow
Watch those undercovers, cop those, rock those
Glock blows, leave 'em baggy and collect, spot closed
Keep a watch froze, lean on the yacht, wash clothes
Let the chop blow, bag a half a block, plot grows, what?
[Chorus: André 3000]

[Verse 3: Big Boi & André 3000]
Boy, I bust raps like D-boys bust gats, shit
We the type of people that don't bury the axe
Or the hatchet, every time we see your link, we snatch it
Ridin' 'round our hood talkin' that dumb shit, your cabbage
Is cracked like plumber's ass and summer's grass
I been in the game for a minute, seen some suckas like y'all passin'
Thinkin' you're light skinned, aight then, lil' boy why you frightened?
The Dungeon Family gon' be here, nigga, so keep writing
I gotta hit The Source, I need my other half a mic
Because that Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik was a classic, right
College Park, East Point and Decatur they got my back, so
We gon' keep on jammin' and stabbin' off in the track, I
Think it's time to bungee, but buddy we will be back
And I'm fin' to put some D's on the 'Lac, know dat (Rrah)
[Chorus: André 3000]
