Thank you as I come back in to the beat
Give a shout out to my brother L.A.N.C.E
Up in heaven, resting, chilling, watching over me
You know you're too good to be forgotten
Poppa wasn't here but there was Lance in the house
It's only me and mommy you the man of the house

Always flip the scipt back to the old days
I used to rock it on the high school stage
I used to drink 40s back then I didn't blaze
Twitched to the pipe with the peace these days

Just go on to let you know I flow on
I'm wicked out my gluteus so ho on and ho on
(hooohhoo)
that's what we about to do
(hooohhoo)
take you on a mission with the Flavor U

uh, me no deal with no dibby dibby flip flop
I get mad when it comes to playing hip hop

but chill

rip up the crew left and right hear the one and the two

I'm read-to-set-it-off again
wanna bet I can wreck you and your next of kin
in fact don't make me have to get the royal getcha
best ta your narrow ass up off that crack

Booking any show when I know that I'll pack it
Attacking with my tactics
I'm loaded like a full metal jacket

I'll flip mines to get mines
I'm happy to get with you
but you can't come out to play
right now you got to much shit to do

It's all game it all sounds the same
the suckas know my name is sitting on the tips of their brains
but they shame, they scared to face me
yet they want to disgrace me, erase me
they must be freaking crazy

I'm the la la la from haulstead
bread with the queen with a prefix
it's off with your head
and that's a promise cause I don't make threats
so mind your neck cause it's about to get set

c'mon set it off (2x)
(gimme five on the black hand side)
uh, set it off
(gimme five on the black hand side)

(gimme five on the black hand side)

(gimme five on the black hand side)

parley

Black reign 1993.
I'd like to welcome you to this album

[Chorus:]
Just Another Day, living in the hood
Just another day around the way
Feelin good today, feelin lovely-yay
Just another day, living in the hood
Just another day around the way
Feelin good today
I hear the(gunshot), but I'm here to
stay

Well it's a beautiful day in the
neighborhood
A beautiful day in the neighbor-hood
Can't go wrong, I feel strong and the
flavor's good
I'm wit whateva comes my way, hip-
hop hooray
Latifah's on vacation, I'm just plain on
day to day
I strap out, step out in every direction
Glock, tech's, jimmy hat's, in case I
need protection
So I land cruise, play I wanna be's
A kid in the increase gettin jack right
in front of me
So I pull the tech close, my finger's on
the trigger
Don't wanna get wet, so they step
Cause mine's is slighty bigger
But better yet, I'ma threat, so ya
better walk
Or get sketched out in chalk, cause I
don't wanna talk
I stay true blue, I'm hopin it's you too
I got the fever for the flava of
a??????
So it's back to the block time to play
It's just another day around the way,
hey

[Chorus]

Time to chill, hit the hill, uptown let's
keep it sight's
Shoot some pool, act a fool, cause
it's own tonight
I'm doin the knowledge, it's not easy,
easy
Watchin a cop cuff a kid for sellin a
clip to a D.T.
But it's home, so I flex, get pressure's
off my chest
Slip in a tape, now which hood
should I hit next
Stomach ache, had a steak, and
take for a bean pie
Get a final call for the brother in a
bow-tie
I'm from little kid's, dream, and fiend
for fun
Lots of laughter moms, no pops playin
wit her son
I pass by a girl wake, they say she
died at seven
Hit by a stray, but I pray their's a hood
in heaven
Fake brother's claim their's no shame
in they're game
You know my name, show me a real
nigga wit a brain
Too it's back to the block time to play
It's just another day around the way,
hey

[Chorus]

You know I gotta get props, I can't
stop, wit out y'all
I be nothin, no wreckin, no checkin,
no rhymin, no cuttin
No stages from pages, no phones, no
beeper's
No reason to put Queen in front of
the name Latifah
I come with the real like respectin in
rule
Cause me and my peoples around the
way remain cool
So it's back to the block time to play
It's just another day, around the wha,
around the muthafuckin way

[Chorus until fade]

(uh)U-N-I-T-Y
U-N-I-T-Y (That's a unity)
U-N-I-T-Y
Love a black man from infinity to
infinity
who're you a calling a bitch?

Chrous:
U-N-I-T-Y(you gotta let em know)
U-N-I-T-Y (That's a unity)(come on
here we go)
U-N-I-T-Y (you gotta let em know)
Another black woman from infinity to
infinity
(you ain't a bitch or a hoe)

U-N-I-T-Y(you gotta let em know)
U-N-I-T-Y (That's a unity)(come on
here we go)
U-N-I-T-Y (you gotta let em know)
Another black woman from infinity to
infinity
(you ain't a bitch or a hoe)

Instinct leads me to another flow
Everytime I hear a brother call a girl a
bitch or a ho
Trying to make a sister feel low
You know all of that gots to go
Now everybody knows there's
exceptions to this rule
Now don't be getting mad, when we
playing, it's cool
But don't you be calling out my name
I bring wrath to those who disrespect
me like a dame
That's why I'm talking, one day I was
walking down the block
I had my cutoff shorts on right cause
it was crazy hot
I walked past these dudes when they
passed me
One of 'em felt my booty, he was
nasty
I turned around red, somebody was
catching the wrath
Then the little one said (Yeah me
bitch) and laughed
Since he was with his boys he tried to
break fly
(Huh) I punched him dead in his eye
and said
"Who you calling a bitch?"

Chorus (2x)

I hit the bottle There ain't nowhere
else to go but up
Bad days at work and they gave you
an attitude
then you were rough
And take it out on me but that's about
enough
You put your hands on me again I'll
put your ass in handcuffs
I guess I fell so deep in love I grew
dependency
I was too blind to see just how it was
affecting me
All that I knew was you was all the
man I had
And I was scared to let you go, even
though you treated me bad
But I don't want my kids to see me
getting beat down
By daddy smacking mommy all
around
You say I'm nothing without ya, but
I'm nothing with ya
A man don't really love you if he hits
ya
This is my notice to the door, I'm not
taking it no more
I'm not your personal whore, that's not
what I'm here for
And nothing good gonna come to ya
til you do right by me
Brother you ain't that sick? (Who you
calling a bitch?)

Chorus

What's going on in your mind is what I
ask ya
But like Yo-Yo, you don't hear me
though
You wear a rag around your head
and you
Call yourself a "Gangsta Bitch" now
that you saw Apache's video
I saw you wilding, acting like a fool
I peeped you out the window jumping
girls after school
But where did all of this come from?
A minute ago, you was a nerd and
nobody ever heard of ya
Now you a wannabe...hard
You barely know your ABC's, please
There's plenty of people out there
with triggers ready to pull it
Why you trying to jump in front of the
bullet (Young lady)
Uh, and real bad girls are the silent
type (yeah)
Ain't none of this worth getting your
face sliced
Cause that's what happened to your
homegirl, right?
(Bucking with nobody)
She got to wear that for life (Who you
calling a bitch?)

Chorus

[Queen Latifah]
Weekend love
Gonna spend a weekend love
Weekend love
Just a case of weekend love

[Queen Latifah]
Have you been misled
Anything I said
Didn't mean to turn you on
The bite is oh so strong
You got things to do
But I have got things too
So I'll catch you on the weekend
Mondays to Fridays I don't see you
then

[Unknown Reggae Artist]
A W-E-E-K and a E-N-D
And a L-O-V-E we were meant to be
A W-E-E-K, a E-N-D
L-O-V-E we were meant to be

[Queen Latifah]
Weekend love
Gonna spend a weekend love
Weekend love
Just a case of weekend love

[Queen Latifah]
Seems it's been so long
Since you thrilled me with your
charms
I tenderly imagine me
Resting in your arms
You've got things to do
And I have got things too
So I'll catch you on the weekend
Mondays to Fridays, I don't see you
then

[Unknown Reggae Artist]
Because we're sorry when we part
And we love when we meet
I know we only do that ?
Once in a week
Sorry when we part
And we love when we meet
I know we only do that ?
Once in a week

[Unknown Reggae Artist]
I know, you know
We all occupied
From our own love life
This has been denied
Many feelins high
Many tears of pride
But by the weekend
Let my spirit devide

[Queen Latifah]
Weekend love
Gonna spend a weekend love
(maybe someday we'll change)
Weekend love
Just a case of weekend love

[Queen Latifah]
If you've been misled
By anything I've said
Didn't mean to turn you on
The bite was oh so strong
You've got things to do
But I have got things too
So I'll catch you on the weekend
Mondays to Fridays I don't see you
then

[Unknown Reggae Artist]
A W-E-E-K and a E-N-D
L-O-V-E we were meant to be
A W-E-E-K, a E-N-D
L-O-V-E we were meant to be

[Unknown Reggae Artist]
??????????
To nourish and cherish every moment
To deliver the goods I am ???
And I know you're posessed with the
ingredients
Till the weekend the days seems to
be long
But by the weekend I wish I could
reverse its time
Good things can come in a small bag
So let's make use of the time that we
have
When we are together cos we stay
popular
???????????
When we are together you and I
wonder
If this love is gonna last forever
Well then I think and I start remember
That we are a ? star

[Queen Latifah]
Weekend love
Gonna spend a weekend love
Weekend love
Just a case of weekend love

[No lyrics]

[Talk:]
This jam is dedicated to my brother
Winki who is looking down on me
from
Heaven Watching my every move as
usual....

[Chorus:]
There but for the grace of god do I go
do I go
There but for the grace of God do I
go do I go-go

I'm trying to take my time on this
rhyme
But it's bustin from the seems
Like a fantasy and eagerness of
dreams
I'm moving all around
Oh yes,I'm making leaps an bounds
Theres so much shit to say, no time to
write it down
I'm skippin' to this and skippin' to that
I've overflowed my cup.
I'm flowin' kind of quick I hope you
can keep up
Every ain't cool just cause you slap
me on my hand
There're things about all of ya'll have
got to understand
Latifah- never was a teacher
Never was a preacher
Never was a saint
Never was conceited
Never was defeated
Sometimes I get tired sometimes I
want to faint.
But I never shut up when things piss
me off
And if I got to curse at you to get my
point across
Thats what I got to do thats how it's
got to be
I've got an angel watching over me

[Chorus 2x]

The Lord is the light of my life and he
brightens up my world
Yes he did, yes he did
The Lord is the light of my life and he
brightens up my world
You don't hear me
Lord is the light of my life and he
brightens up my world,
world,world,world
The light of my world, my world-
AHHHHH yes he did...............
