[ Fresh Prince ]  Yo Jeff, what's shakin, man?  [ Jazzy Jeff ]  What's up, dude?  [ Fresh Prince ]  Hey man, you remember that girl I knew  I walking to school, man  The one who used to diss me every day?  [ Jazzy Jeff ]  Yeah  [ Fresh Prince ]  When the record came out she called me two days ago, man  [ Jazzy Jeff ]  Man, my phone is ringin off the hook  With people askin me for tapes and free records  I - man, I ain't with it  [ Fresh Prince ]  Word man  Bust this    [ Fresh Prince ]  This rap is for you people in the past who were against me  Who snatched up every opportunity to dis me  Put me down like I was nothin, treated me like a jerk  Now I'm seein the pay-off of all my hard work  Cause now that it's MY records on the wheels  Somehow all of a sudden it's a whole new deal  So for those in the past who dissed me, don't deny it  What, you're sorry? Huh - don't even try it!    [ Jazzy Jeff ]  Word man  [ Fresh Prince ]  Man, people are a trip, man  [ Jazzy Jeff ]  Put everybody down about what's up with that  [ Fresh Prince ]  Yo word, man  I gotta let em know  I gotta  [ Jazzy Jeff ]  Bust this    [ Fresh Prince ]  I used to know this girl by the name of Theresa  I did all I could to make her release her  Emotions to me, but she just wouldn't do it  She built up a wall and I couldn't break through it  I used to walk to school every day of the week  Watchin Theresa walk on the other side of the street  One day I finally got my heart up to speak  But she dissed me and dismissed me with a smack on my cheek  So I bought six bottles of new fancy cologne  But all I got from Theresa was (Leave me alone!)  I bought new clothes to wear everyplace  But all Theresa would say was (Get out of my face!)  So I gave up this quest for Theresa  But then on the day my record was released, a  Strange thing happened when it came on the radio  Theresa broke her neck just to say (Hello..)  I looked at her, I said, "You must be foolish  Why did you ignore me on the way to school if  You were interested?" She said (Oh, I apologize)  I looked deep into her dark brown eyes  I said, "You ignored me for months on and  Now all of a sudden you wanna be my friend?  You didn't talk before, so don't talk now, be quiet  What, you really like me? Huh - don't even try it!"    [ Jazzy Jeff ]  Man - she had a lotta nerve, man  [ Fresh Prince ]  Word man  Hey man, but she ain't had half as much nerve as that old record producer, man  Remember when he dissed us, man?  [ Jazzy Jeff ]  What - what up?    [ Fresh Prince ]  When I first started rappin I had one idea  And it was set in my mind very vivid and clear  I knew that I wanted to be a rap artist  I would give my all and work my hardest  But when I took my song to a record producer  He told me that I better go drink some rap juice, or  Something, cause my song was really absurd  He said that it was the worst trash that he'd ever heard  You know my ego was shattered, he busted my groove  I could hear him crackin up as I left the booth (Ha-haaa!)  I thought my song was good but he busted my bubble  The title was 'Girls Ain't Nothing But Trouble'  Luckily I found someone who had faith  He lifted my ego back up into place  His name was Dana Goodman and he thought my song was on track  So two weeks later it was out on wax  It busted up the charts like a hydrogene bomb  Up, up, up, up it clim-clim-climbed  I made people eat the words that said I couldn't achieve  Now they had no choice but to believe  In me, then no sooner than my record came out  That same old producer started callin my house  One night he called me 'bout at half past 12  He said, "I've got some cash if you wanna sell"  I said, "You big, stupid, half-wit idiot  I told you before that my record was a hit  But you just laughed like I was some kind of kid  Now don't you regret what you did?  I wish you'd get off my tip, yes, that's my request  You see, he who laughs last, always laughs best  Okay, I'll be reasonable - You wanna buy it?  Okay, I'll sell it - psych - don't even try it!"    [ Jazzy Jeff ]  Ha-ha  That's how you gotta put it to him  [ Fresh Prince ]  Word man, that's how you gotta..  [ Jazzy Jeff ]  You know what?  Let me tell you something  I got dissed so hard, man  Bust this  I'ma tell YOU what's up    [ Jazzy Jeff (& Fresh Prince) ]  Yo Prince - do you remember when we first started out  How we used to go to all the parties just to rock the house?  (Word man, I remember those good days well)  Why chill out, man, cause I got a story to tell  About five years ago I began my quest  To be the best deejay in the whole U.S.  There was a lot of deejays strivin for my spot  They would put me down every chance they got  Never cut me a break on any given night  They used to all look at me and say (Pfsss.. Jeff's aight)  (But when your 'Magnficient Cuts' were released  All of that laughter ceased)  Word  (When you and I used to do our shows  All the crowd would say was 'HO, HO, HO')  Yeah, time after time we were tearin it up  While you rocked the mic and I rocked the cut  But now that I'm makin a name for myself  All those deejays are like (Yo Jeff, what's up?)  But all that stuff is dead, no, I ain't with it  They approach me on the street and say (Yo Jeff, how 'bout a ticket  Man, to your very next show?)  But I say no and I tell em where they can go  I can't believe that they had the nerve  To hop on my tip now! (Yeah man, word)  Just the other day homebody approached me on the street  And said (Yo Jeff, how 'bout a record for free?)  I said, Man, the way you dissed me, you better go buy it!  (But Jeff - we're friends) For real? Don't even try it!    [ Jazzy Jeff ]  Hey man, I'm tellin you  Straight up  You know how it is, man  [ Fresh Prince ]  Man people  People are a trip, man  [ Jazzy Jeff ]  Maybe they'll know next time not to dis people  Knawmsayin?  [ Fresh Prince ]  We told em  We let em know  [ Jazzy Jeff ]  Cause I ain't with it, man  That stuff is dead  [ Fresh Prince ]  Dig it  Aight Jeff, chill, man  Aight
