Lyrics

Intro

[Intro]

Yea

Ye-yeah

Hmph

This what I'm talkin' 'bout pimpin'

(? talkin' 'bout playboy)

What's haapnin' shawty

I'm T.I

Some of y'all out there might know me as T.I.P

(Lil Tip)

But anyway

(What up nigga)

This album you just purchased or received

Is probably entitled I'm Serious

I know y'all niggas don't usually listen to intros but you might wanna ride this muhfucka out tho

(?)

A-a-ah

First of all, you in the Chevy

Cut this shit up pimp

(?)

You in the Caddillac

Let ya seat back

Blow ya muhfuckin' horn

Throw a peace in the air and wave at any hoe you see (What up bitch!)

Aight

(Come here)

If ya under eighteen cut this shit down and don't let ya momma hear you repeat nuttin' don' heard on this here album

Huh, yeah (bad muhfuckers)

Before we get in ta

How much money I got (ha ha ha)

How much ice I wear (all that bullshit)

What kinda cars I drive, how many hoes I fuck, how much dope I sold

Oh well we gon' get to it tho partna

It just

Before you know me as a rapper

'Fore you know me as a pimp

'Fore you know me as a young arrogant nigga from Atlanta that call his-self the king of the south (?)

It's more important that you know me as a person first

(Character)

You know

So

To introduce me to you as a man

I have to take you back (meet my nigga)

21 years ago

That's to the day shawty
