Now, I didn't use the word 'Bitch' a few times in a rhyme But now it's '95 so let me drop a line This goes out to the young black queens On the neighborhood scene who haven't lost their dream
I know sometimes it seems like it ain't no love And to get where you go, ya got to push an' shove Around the way, girl, with hope in your heart Do his five in the purse an' five in the start
She's the kinda woman you take home to momma The only kind you ever let get past the drama Coolio yo, know that you ain't no, hoe And it's time to put you up on a pedestal seat
Queen of the entire universe And you know how I know 'cause you were put here first An' to every nigga that dissed ya an' every nigga that hit ya Accept my apologies for my brotha's
My sista Give it up for my sistas, give it up for my sistas Give it up for my sistas, you're all I need
Princess of the Nile, sweet black sexy child Ooh, I like your style First motha on the planet, I know it's gettin' scary And all these wannabe pimps is all that ya meet
But ya gotta shake 'em off like fleas an' nigga meat And use your God given talents and abilities No matter where you from, ya get much respect From the top of your neck to your county check
I see ya waitin' for the bus in the early morn Brick house with a face like Leena Horne I ain't no cap to save a hoe but I got your front An' your side an' your back if that's what ya want
So when it's time to put it down, I won't be runnin' Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Ya got a dear lil' somethin' like Harriet Tubmanm No matter what ya do or where ya go Ya got love from a nigga named Coolio, yo
My sista Give it up for my sistas, give it up for my sistas Give it up for my sistas, you're all I need
Hernie Dipp got the lips, finga tips and the hips To make mice out of the crazy-ass Bloodz and Crypts Make a nigga sing a song all night long Til' his voice is gone with no music on
You can be a busta on a hard ass low An' should be down wit' your ass when your poor and broke And every time ya need I'll owe ya Gotta do is make a phone call
'Cause when ya say 'come' ya know she's on her way With no hesitance an' any type of the leg I talk about my granny, Batana, an' Vanita Jacki an' Nicole an' Grandy an' Artisha
I got to give credit where credit is due An' all credit that is credited is credit to you I give praise to your ways an' for all my day Apologies much respect to the sons I raise
My sista Give it up for my sistas, yeah, give it up for my sistas Come on and give it up for my sistas, you're all I need Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Give it up for my sistas, come on and give it up for my sistas Give it up for my sistas 'cause you're all I need Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Give it up for my sistas, come on and give it up for my sistas Come on and give it up for my sistas 'cause you're all I need
