I gotta testify Come up in the spot lookin' extra fly 'Fore the day I die, I'ma touch the sky Gotta testify Come up in the spot lookin' extra fly 'Fore the day I die, I'ma touch the sky. Back when they thought pink Polos would hurt the Roc Before Cam got the shit to pop The doors was closed I felt like Bad Boy's street team: I couldn't work the locks Now let's go, take 'em back to the plan Me and my momma hopped in that U-Haul van Any pessimists, I. ain't talk to them Plus I ain't have no phone.

I gotta testify, come up in the spot looking extra fly For the day I die, I'mma touch the sky Gotta testify, come up in the spot looking extra fly For the day I die, I'mma touch the sky. Back when they thought pink polo's would hurt the Roc, Before Cam got the shit to pop, the doors was closed. I felt like Bad Boy's street team, I couldn't work the Lox (locks). Damn, them new loafers hurt my pocket. Before anybody wanted K-West beats, Me and my girl split the buffet at KFC. Dog, I was having nervous breakdowns, Like "Damn, these niggas that much better than me?" Baby, I'm going on an airplane, And I don't know if I'll be back again.
