Pharrell Williams - The Prequel lyrics

I mean you know what it is, you see it man I was inspired by Slick Rick, y'know? Like he used to just come on TV and just sh** on n***as real quick Like just sh**, like y'know And just wave his fingers around the world and call us "crumbs" and sh** I was hurt, stunned, astounded, amazed and dazed, and confused as a child When the n***a did the "Young World" video, the "Hey Young World" sh** That sh** changed my life so, y'know when you see me rolling around here looking like Slick Rick You know where the f** it's coming from You know what I'm sayin'? So for me, I wanted to y'know I wanted to have a conversation to all my fans, y'know what I'm sayin' That's on the water in the hood doing what they do On that grind every day, cause I know that I know what that is, y'know what I'm sayin'? And who's the grimiest n***a in the street, y'know what I mean? DJ Drama And I mean it's my first mixtape and sh**, know what I mean there's more to come, so We 'gon do what it is we gotta do
