Mpongo Love - BTO lyrics

Intro: Mpongo Love Verse 1: Gracy Hopkins Lemme write a little book to you, or maybe just read that All the details, I know we dont need that, but maybe I'm just lookin for a way to reset myself My first nickname was Lee, with the Baby just before, that was me, began with the singing then the raps hobbie, then made a little crew with the best broadie The name was B next to the Y It stands for Young Billies We didn't grow around gang bangers, drug dealers The old just laugh, but we know the young feel us Wack a** english accent with no flow Rappin' all these verses we all know I started with Chris' 48 Bar Rap Not really the first, but now we know more True story is told, homie, Carter, me, G with Preacy I fell like I was about to grow so fast, n***a maybe that is why I made Grizzly, what We were just in a little room tryna copy all that stuff we was hearing in the mainstream radio They were like "we dont speak that like you" I was like "shut up just tell me if you ready tho" Tell me are you ready tho? Answer oui my dear My very first song wasn't Triumphal Arch, it was a wack remix of Whip My Hair The first record I did wasn't T.A. neither, "Look Me Up" that I never dropped Now I'm just here, and I play my story, so nobody can say that I never tried, I came from nothing Hook: Mpongo Love Verse 2: Gracy Hopkins Tell me who your homies, Imma tell who you are Tell me what your past, Imma tell what your future Imma tell you what they want, if they gonna choose ya Be with the right clan, you know who they for BabyLee is growin' up then became Grizzly I remember how this hatin' stupid neighbor used to diss me And it wasn't errbody, but they wasn't pushing fellas up And now the same n***as are the ones who tryna kiss Lee shoes Ahh, these n***as disgusting A fella's workin hard while these n***as discussing But I dont forget the day-ones Since "Look Me Up" that I had to play once But now lets close the rap chapter The fact that ya wanna know it, thats gross My conscious said I'm too dark And pretending that I'm too lost So he just came and took a part of me And this little fool created Clyde Mownei The other little fool is the bro I never had Now these others little fools cannot never touch me All these guys thinkin' I'm a wiz or something I was the number one, now three fellas frontin' Knock-knock, in your front door God gave me so much and I want more Cause I know I messed up So lemme make a fella make it right Lemme make a fella bigger I just askin' myself Do you want something you like? Or do you want something to bite? Can somebody understand my case? Do somebody wanna steal my place? I'm just a rap fan here, I pray for love and still feelin' hope I came from nothing Hook: Mpongo Love (Gracy Hopkins) (Now you know everything right? You already know that I came from nothing Oh! That's my favourite part right there... Sing mama sing! Ladies and gentleman, Mpongo Love: the mother of an entire generation Hope you will enjoy this where you at And I apologize for all the rude language in that song We love you, you there forever you know that?)
