With rhyme after rhyme I win The Mac (The Mac) Known for breaking 'em off something They laying in the back and front keeping your speakers pumping The miggida-miggida-miggida Mac came to get 'em warm And my pants to the back, that's my everyday uniform You little cream puff Mac Daddy wannabe Keep dreaming 'cause a Mac you will never be So all y'all with the Dr. Seuss riddles You can get the finger - the middle [Hook 2X] Ay, yo Kris, kick it [Verse 2: Daddy Mac] I caught you on the scope (the scope) Peepin' out my rhymes that's this dope (it's dope) And for you there's no hope My name (is what?)
