I'm Not A
I'm Not A
I'm Not A
I'm Not A
---Chorus---
I'm Not A
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
Come on y'all I ain't no
Yes you are
Up above the clouds so high
No not me I'm just a regular guy
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
Come on y'all I ain't no
Yes you are
Up above the clouds so high
No not me I'm just a regular guy
---Chorus---
Star light star so bright
First star that I see tonight
I wish that I may, wish that I might
Riff the rhyme just right
Now you all know how the old story goes
He went from rags to riches and he changed as he rose
To me that scenario doesn't apply my friend
Cause I'm the same guy I've always been
J-J F-P 1-9-9-3
M-O-V-I-E TV and CD
Me and Jeff, brand new on the radio
Step on the scene and the crowd screams, "There they go"
What? a star hats quite in analogy
I don't think you and I should be described astrologically
Don't judge me by my car
And don't treat me any differently
---Chorus---
Lets take a trip down memory lane
You know back before everybody knew my name
Before all the glory, the fame and the cheers
When I was just the kid with the big old ears (check it)
West Philadelphia born and raised
Now that's the phrase you hear on Mondays
But let's get a little bit deeper than that
Back when Jeff was on the scratch
Back when I was on the rap
I used to buy records at this audio store
I barely had a dime when I walked out the door
I tried to get a break but they could never seem to cut me
Bot now that I got the money and they wanna give me stuff free
That's somethin that I'll never understand
Yo I can afford it give the break to the next man
You say I'm a star cause I'm large in the land
But excuse me what I do doesn't define who I am
[Shaq, Denzel, Quincy Jones] (ooh) [What's the category?]
It's folks you look up to
[The thousand dollar answer is up on the board]
Um who is a star
(Buzzer) Sorry no score
People be flippin when they see me around
But yo don't trip just give me a pound
Step up and say hi it don't matter who you are
Come on what you all scared for?
---Chorus---
Out to see a movie
Chilling with my Lily
Acting kind of silly
In downtown Philly
She wanna see a new flick I wanna see a classic
So we flip a coin and we settle on Jurassic
Park the only thing that counts is me to be with her
Got some popcorn for the theater
Everything going just fine
Then this girl from behind recognized me in the line
I turned around and I smiled and she laughed
She said, "How you doin can I please have your autograph?"
I said, "ya", and as she reached for her pen
Her boyfriend said, "He ain't nobody. F him."
"F me yo what did i do?
Watch your mouth man I don't even know you
I'm a peaceful man real easy"
I said, "Look you got a problem with me, B?"
He said, "Ya I don't like the way you act
Cars and jewelry and waving like you all that
I ain't sweating you no matter who you are"
I ain't asked you to, homie
