Outkast - Da Art of Storytellin', Pt. 1 Lyrics

[Verse 1: Big Boi]Somebody hit me the other day for a rendezvousWas it the bitch that fucked the Goodie and the Dungeon Crew?Let's say her name was Suzy Skrew 'cause she screwed a lotMakin' a nigga hit that chonk at legitimate spotsNot no parks, backseats, or things of that natureHad to hate ya, playaI'm dickin' the ho down — never said I paid herStraight laid her, slayed the bitch like Darth Vader, made herFrom College Park and Fayette all the way down to DecaturLike Jada, her wig was sharp and sporty — that was shawtySafe as a snake on eggs in a Bimmer 840It's foggy, I went to the crib to call her but she lost meMy baby mama beeped me, seven o'clock, it's gonna cost meBut I still wanna cut her, though — maybe she had to work?I caught her in the mall, wearin' a real tight skirtShe was fine as fuck — I wanted to sex the ho upShe said, "Let's hit the parking lot so I can sick your duck"I said, "Cool, I really wanted to cut you but this'll doI gotta pick up my daughter, plus my baby mama beeped me, too"She said she understood and everythin' was kosherI gave her a Lil' Wil CD and a fuckin' posterIt's like that, now[Chorus: Sleepy Brown & Big Boi]It's like that, nowYou better go on and get the hump up out your back nowIt's about fo' or five cats off in my 'Lac nowWe just shoot game in the form of story raps now (Yeah)It's like that now, t's like that now[Verse 2: André 3000]Now Suzy Skrew had a partner named Sasha... ThumperI remember her number like the summerWhen her and Suzy, yeah, they threw a slumberParty, but you can not call it that 'cause it was slummerWell, it was more like spend the nightThree in the mornin', yawnin', dancin' under street lightsWe chillin' like a villain, and a nigga feelin' rightIn the middle of the ghetto on the curb, but in spite of all the bullshitWe on our back, starin' at the stars above (Aww, man)Talkin' bout what we gonna be when we grow up (Mm)I said, "What you wanna be?" She said, "Alive"It made me think for a minute, then looked in her eyesI coulda died, time went on, I got grownRhyme got strong, mind got blownI came back home to find lil' Sasha was goneHer mama said she with a nigga that be treatin' her wrong (Man)I kept on singin' my song and hopin' at a showThat I would one day see her standin' in the front rowBut two weeks later, she got found in the back of a schoolWith a needle in her arm, baby two months dueSasha Thumper[Chorus: Sleepy Brown & Big Boi]It's like that nowYou better go on and get the hump up out your back nowIt's about fo' or five cats off in my 'Lac nowWe just shoot game in the form of story raps nowIt's like that now, it's like that nowIt's like that nowYou better go on and get the hump up out your back nowIt's about fo' or five cats off in my 'Lac nowWe just shoot game in the form of story raps nowIt's like that now, it's like that now[Outro]Grandmama: Keisha, Keisha! Cut that loud mess off, you hear all that thunderin' and lightnin', and get off that telephone!Keisha: Ugh, alrightChild 1: Grandmama, what’s all that noise?Child 2: I’m scaredGrandmama: Baby, don’t be scared. It's gonna be alright. It’s just the Lord doin' His work, okay?
