Lyrics

[Intro] Party people, in the place to be From the same man, who brought you "Da Bichez," ("Da Bichez," "Da Bichez," "Da Bichez"!) We were misunderstood, last time we brought you "Da Bichez," ("Da Bichez," "Da Bichez"!) Now we gonna clear it up and let you make up your own mind Like this [Verse 1] Now a queen's a queen, and a whore is a whore She felt if she made me wait, I'd have more respect for her,  Adore her, eventually spendin' up my digits She felt that love would make me buy her mad material shit She likes to trick 'em, 'cause ain't nothin' like a sleepin' victim East New York style, stick 'em—"ha ha ha, stick 'em" Top rated game, but if it's game, I played it Underestimated, swore the king was checkmated She claims she loves my mind, 'cause I'm so intelligent But fuck my mental, she was scheming on my mint Evil inten-tion, to de-plenish the fund She tried to jux me with the pussy, except for the mask and gun I was a fool to fall in lust with this evil ge-nius She had me by the nuts She ain't got shit – but, man, she loves it plush Whippin' I whip, and suckin' up that canna-bus Back in the days, I would've scraped her for this caper But I realize–it wasn't me, it was the paper [Verse 2] Let me kick it, about the digits, that I've collected Long distance, and disconnected, it's gettin' hectic Before my record, they didn't show it But now they throw it, hopin' that they'll get drunk off Moët Or Cristal, but that's not my par-ticular style and taste My name ain't Puff, and I ain't got loot to waste I ain't got time to waste, bad bitches is all up in my face Crazy ignorant, sweatin' links, minks and shit Cosmetic, but deep down – derelict Fake players, never get out the projects It's pathetic -- the way she bends for dividends I tried to jewel her, but she tried to get a drink at the end Of our con-ver-sation, I did not have the patience Slid off to the next Asian She said, "What you do?" I said, "What?" She said, "You know your occupation?" So I broke the fuck out In 1996, that's what it's all about But I won't go that route Back in the days, Biz said it was the "Vapors" But today, I realize that it's the papers [Chorus] "'Cause ain't no fiends comin' in between me and my dreams See what I mean, black?" "I gets the paper" "'Cause ain't no fiends comin' in between me and my dreams See what I mean, black?" "I gets the paper" "'Cause ain't no fiends comin' in between me and my dreams See what I mean, black?" "I gets the paper" [Verse 3] Now a whore's a whore, find a queen and she'll be my Earth Respect, love, and protect her – for all that it's worth I admit ,I have flaws – I flips it first,  But, deep down, I wishes to give 'em the universe A lot of the ones that I thought was right wasn't I built with Afu, he said "Don't sweat it, 'cause they come a dime a dozen" Like my ex-stunt, wanted a diamond Bitches love power, while queens, love refinement Low-stress environment, old age and retirement Never have to wonder, 'where my money went?' 'Where my honey went, is her back gettin' twisted By the next fella?,'always take heed to what I tell her When I'm wrong, she lets me know I need correction When I'm right, she's my reflection, still we use protection Through thick and thin, thin and thick She's my diamond in the rough, not a whore or a trick Great expectations, of me and she buildin' nations Everything we do and skyscrapin' Back in the days, the devil used to rape her Nowadays, he got her chasin' the paper [Chorus] "'Cause ain't no fiends comin' in between me and my dreams See what I mean, black?" "I gets the paper" "'Cause ain't no fiends comin' in between me and my dreams See what I mean, black?" "I gets the paper" "'Cause ain't no fiends comin' in between me and my dreams See what I mean, black?" "I gets the paper" "'Cause ain't no fiends comin' in between me and my dreams See what I mean, black?" "I gets the paper"
