You
Written by: Michael Turner, Christopher Portugal & Matthew Cassell
[Sung sample:] You!
[Double K:] Check it out…
[Sung sample:] You!
[Double K:] People in the back, you people to the side
You people in the front…
[Sung sample:] You!
[Rap sample:] And all of you in the back…
[Sung sample:] You!
[Thes One:] Be rocking tables and doubles, taking the trouble
Supporting labels and loving real rap, DJs do it for
[Sung sample:] You!
[Double K:] Know I be doing it, you know I be getting it
P-funking 'til the last of my days, so I can give it to
[Sung sample:] You!
[Thes One:] Keep the dance floor going, be showing body movements
B-boys doing it fluid, uprocking, yo, we make this for
[Sung sample:] You!
[Double K:] Be getting busy, when you be loving the P
We taking the money, ripping microphones on the stage for
[Sung sample:] You!
[Thes One:] Be taking risks, fatter cap mean-streaking through the street
All weekend, freaking hand-styles, all city, it's
[Sung sample:] You!
[Double K:] Know where we from, the place under the sun
Where they be packing them guns, and we laid it on the one for
[Sung sample:] You!
[Thes One:] Ran out of money, but kept digging for breaks
Filling your crates, sealing history, listening to music, it's
[Sung sample:] You!
[Double K:] And everybody, let's rock, rock the party
And rock the body, body, they created hip-hop for…
[Sung sample:] You!
[Both:] People in the back, you people to the side
You people in the front…
[Sung sample:] All I'm missing is… (x4)
[Sung sample:] You!
[Thes One:] Work 9-to-5, support family, and survive
The life you lead is for your seeds to have the better one, we make it for
[Sung sample:] You!
[Double K:] Tried to down the People Under The Stairs
But wasn't prepared when you heard we wouldn't stop
We was coming for
[Sung sample:] You!
[Thes One:] Deserve applause, girl, doing for self
Got a job, pay rent, don't need no man to step and help, I'm so proud of
[Sung sample:] You!
[Double K:] Just stay checking, every time a new sensation
Of rhyming and rhythm, every time, Thes made it for
[Sung sample:] You!
[Thes One:] Got my back, true definition of a friend
House party, road-tripping never end, you know I send this to
[Sung sample:] You!
[Double K:] Can't deny the ladies love the P, they deserve the P
And homegirls, all I need is
[Sung sample:] You!
[Thes One:] Always support the things we do, I imagine your crew
Getting blunted to this new P, and surely, it's made for
[Sung sample:] You!
[Double K:] Can run and tell everybody in sight
The two producers came together, once again, we was thinking of…
[Sung sample:] All I'm missing is…
[Sung sample:] You!
[Both:] People in the back, you people to the side
You people in the front…
[Sung sample:] All I'm missing is… (x4)
[Double K:] Pump it up!
[Sung sample:] You!
[Rap sample:] And all of you…
[Double K:] Just pump it! Pump it!
[Rap sample:] You… And all of you… (scratched and repeated)
[Sung sample:] You!
[Double K:] Yeah… hey, Thes One, man… like they used to do on them old hip-hop tracks… do it on this one… ha ha! Yeah… word up, man… do it!
[Sung sample:] All I'm missing is you
[Rap sample:] And all of you (repeated and scratched)
