Sky's The Limit

[Intro: Voletta Wallace]

Baby, look at me

Mama love you

And I know you ain't no little boy no more

But you'll always be my baby

It seems like only yesterday I was holding you in my arms

Now look at you now, Biggie

But I worry about you

I worry about you all the time

Hangin' out on the corner

All times at night with the cruel people

Baby, that ain't nothin' but trouble

I always taught you that you could have whatever you dream

Well, I want you to hold onto that dream, baby

Hold on to it real tight, 'cause the sky's the limit

[Break: The Notorious B.I.G.]

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen

How's everybody doin' tonight? (Alright)

I'd like to welcome to the stage (Alright, alright)

The lyrically acclaimed, ha (Woo)

I like this young man, because when he came out (Hahahaha)

He came out with the phrase:

He went from ashy to classy — haha, I like that (Alright, alright)

So everybody in the house give a warm

(Uh) Round of applause for The Notorious

B.I.G, ha

The Notorious B.I.G, ladies and gentlemen

Give it up for him, y'all

[Verse 1: The Notorious B.I.G.]

Uh

A nigga never been as broke as me, I like that

When I was young, I had two pair of Lees, besides that

The pinstripes and the gray

The one I wore on Mondays and Wednesdays

While niggas flirt, I'm sewin' tigers on my shirts, and alligators

You wanna see the inside? Huh, I see ya later

Here comes the drama

"Oh, that's that nigga with the fake"

Blaow! "Why you punch me in my face?" Stay in your place

Play your position (Uh), here come my intuition (Uh-huh)

Go in this nigga pocket, rob him while his friends watchin'

And hoes clockin', here comes respect

His crew's your crew, or they might be next

Look at they man eye, big man, they never try

So we rolled with 'em, stole with 'em

I mean loyalty, niggas bought me milks at lunch

The milks was chocolate, the cookies — butter crunch

'88 Oshkosh and blue and white dunks, pass the blunt

[Chorus: 112]

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on

Just keep on pressin' on (Gotta keep pressin' on)

Sky is the limit and you know that you can

(Gotta keep movin', gotta keep pressin' on)

Have what you want, be what you want

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on (Gotta keep pressin' on)

Just keep on pressin' on (Gotta keep pressin' on)

Sky is the limit and you know that you can (Oh-ooh)

Have what you want, be what you want

Have what you want, be what you want (Oh woah, oh yeah)

[Verse 2: The Notorious B.I.G.]

I was ashamed, my crew was lame

I had enough heart for most of 'em

Long as I got stuff from most of 'em

It's on, even when I was wrong, I got my point across

They depicted me the boss, of course

My orange box-cutter make the world go round

Plus I'm fuckin', bitches ain't my homegirls now

Start stackin', dabbled in crack, gun packin'

Nickname Medina, make the seniors tote my ninas

From gym class to Inglés, pass off and global

The only nigga with a mobile, can't you see like Total

Gettin' larger in waists and tastes

Ain't no tellin' where this felon is headin', just in case

Keep a shell at the tip of your melon, clear the space

Your brain was a terrible thing to waste

'88 on Gates, snatch initial name plates

Smokin' spliffs with niggas, real-life beginner killers

Prayin' God forgive us for being sinners, help us out

[Chorus: 112]

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on (Ooh baby)

Just keep on pressin' on (Gotta keep pressin' on)

Sky is the limit and you know that you can

(Gotta keep movin', gotta keep pressin' on)

Have what you want, be what you want

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on (Ohh, gotta keep pressin' on)

Just keep on pressin' on (Gotta keep pressin' on)

Sky is the limit and you know that you can (Yeah, ooh)

Have what you want, be what you want (Woah ooh, yeah)

Have what you want, be what you want (Oh, woah, yes)

[Verse 3: The Notorious B.I.G.]

After realizin', to master enterprisin'

I ain't have to be in school by ten, I then

Begin to encounter with my counterparts

On how to burn the block apart

Break it down into sections, drugs by the selections

Some use pipes, others use injections

Syringe sold separately, Frank the Deputy

Quick to grab my Smith & Wesson like my dick was missin'

To protect my position, my corner, my lair

While we out here, say the Hustler's Prayer:

"If the game shakes me or breaks me

I hope it makes me a better man, take a better stand"

Put money in my mom's hand

Get my daughter this college plan so she don't need no man

Stay far from timid, only make moves when your heart's in it

And live the phrase "Sky's the limit"

Motherfucker, see you chumps on top

[Chorus: 112]

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on (Oh oh)

Just keep on pressin' on (Gotta keep pressin' on)

Sky is the limit and you know that you can (Gotta keep movin' on)

Have what you want, be what you want (Gotta keep pressin' on, baby)

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on (Oh, oh, every day)

Just keep on pressin' on (We'll be alright)

Sky is the limit and you know that you can

(Keep on movin', keep on pressin' on)

Have what you want, be what you want

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on (Gotta keep pressin' on)

Just keep on pressin' on (Gotta keep pressin' on)

Sky is the limit and you know that you can (Every day will be alright)

Have what you want, be what you want (If you will, oh)

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on (Oh, gotta keep pressin' on)

Just keep on pressin' on (Gotta keep pressin' on)

Sky is the limit and you know that you can

Have what you want, be what you want

(Everything will be alright if you will keep on pressin' on)

(Gotta keep pressin' on)

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on

Just keep on pressin' on (Gotta keep pressin' on)

Sky is the limit and you know that you can (Gotta keep pressin' on)

Have what you want, be what you want

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on (Oh, woah, ooh)

Just keep on pressin' on
