[Intro 1]
[D]
Grandmaster Dee if you please
Be yourself

[Verse 1]
I’m not [D]rocking this jam
to insult nobody
This one goes out to the carbon copies
So take a stand, as quick as ya can
If ya plan ain’t working
Then change that plan
If you wanna be a loser, that’s up to you
Just don’t be a loser
‘round me and my crew
Before you find yourself,
picking up ya self
With no one to blame
beside yourself

[Verse 2]
[D]Be yourself you gotta be yourself

[Verse 3]
[D]
You must think my head screws off and on
But see people like you
don’t live too long
You think you’re a ladies
man but you’re not
To tell the truth - you’re
The joke of the block
Your hair’s fried and dyed
Pressed to the side
You think you’re Billy Dee
drinking Colt 45
Mimicking and imitating somebody else
If you wanna hang with me, you gotta

Speedballers get a ticket for

[Verse 6]
moving too fast
[D]You’re living the wild life
And nothing to gain
Getting busy Lover Lenny was
Your neighborhood name
You think you’re at the top
Of every girl's roster you’re not Billy Dee
But you’re more like
Alfalfa

[Verse 7]

[D]
Fake fingernails,
ponytails down to the floor
You said that you bought ‘em so
I guess that they’re yours

Chaka Khan the next
Selling hair everywhere

Was a helluva surprise
Yesterday I didn’t notice that

Everyday your personality change

Hit me hit me again
Don’t hit me no damn mo'

You say you [D]got yourself together
But I’m calling your bluff
When you gonna learn that

[Verse 15]
If he [D]jumped off the bridge
Would you do that too?
Monkey see, monkey do,
