Look at Me Now Songtext
von Beanie Sigel

If you could look at me now

My hair was knotty then
Nose snotty then
Sweats, no pockets then
Sweatin′, no problems then
Facts? Off the potty then
News? Watchin karate then
Muddas playin double dutch
She was hop-scotchin' then

Me- Girl watchin′ then
Crooked little eye (eye)
Hump-back, tryna hump that
Yes I (I)
Couldn't play because I'm poo
They thought I was mockin them
Gramz
Said I was devilish
Been knew I was rotten then


School
Been dropped out
Neva really clockin′ in
Popz
Been dropped out,
Neva really stoppin′ in
Momz
Tryna lock me out
Cops
Tryna lock me in
Damn, Devilish one with Pellet-guns
Grew from
Sling-shottin' them (uh)
To sling-shootin′ them
Dice all day
Kept hook shot
Nice all day
Right hook fight
Nice all day
Nigga left for a night
To keep money right all day
Break a night all day

If you could look at me now if you could look at me now
Let me smoke with you young'in


Yo I was pop-lockin′ Then
Card-board boxin Then
Me
I was up the center
3-D
Lockin' in
Strong arm
Robbin′ then
Started car
Poppin' in
ME
Skinny toots, Telly boots, Marley Park and El
Got in trouble with Passion
Was from parkin' them
Other Jacks, diffeferent sets
Started sparkin′ him
I had the four-teen gauge
My nigga Larken then
How it made front page
He caught a spark from them
He got gauged in his leg
Still was walkin′ then
8-toss, shook it off
Kept sparkin' them
All heads aint help
We had more heart then them
We squashed that war
Got some wall
Stayed apart from them
Down in Iraq, they give me dap
I′m takin' pounds from clowns
You shake my hand like a grown man (grown man)
Ya aint see it like Tony and old man
Mob-style f′real
This is my life-style f'real

If you could look at me now

Now its big buisnesses
You see them big bentley-skids
You see them Bee′s on those shiny-ass
Rims of his
You can't find him in the woods
With his kids with his
Mob cookin breakfast with no S.W.A.T
A good day this is
You could bullshit with rap if you want
I pull the bullshit to the back
And put rap in front
Now I'm State-Prop flickin′ it
State-Prop stitchin′ it
I'm paper soldier yall
Your boy gettin′ rich

I see a kid's hair knotty now
They nose snotty now
So what I do
I try to turn they frown around
I make ′em smile a day
If only for a while a day
I give them dollar-day
That's my ghetto holliday

I must say for myself
I′m feelin proud today
My life is shaped
Like I run about a mile a day
I dedicate this to the ones that
Counted me out
And looked at me down
Just look at me now

I know y'all see me
Look at me now man
I'm killin′ this shit
Sheed, check your boy out man
Your boy got businesses man
I done came up on my own nigga
I′m a CEO nigga
Clothing line cartoons, movies, name it nigga
Bullshit with rap if you want
I'm a big-boy-toy driver nigga
With unlaced airforce 1′s with no license
Holla at me nigga
Y'all can′t tell me shit
Look at me now
