Princess Of The Posse - Queen Latifah

Basslines affect me when my rhymes direct me

Forgive the crowds, O Lord

They know not why they sweat me

Biting’s against the law in the place that I live

So I lock up the door with the keys to my crib

The call me the high priestess of disaster

Although I’m not a dread and not a rasta

There’s never been a word I can’t master

I’ve always been, a piddly pastor

I reign, the lesson of today

You have to listen to each and every single word I have to say

Because the Ruler Lord Ramsey is on my side

And I’m the princess of the posse, so yo, take it light

The Princess of the Posse, me say she a cool one

She rhyme American, she rock Jamaican

Princess of the Posse, me say she a cool girl

She rhyme Brooklyn, the Bronx, USA, the world

You try to dissect my rhymes to see if there’s a pattern

I bounced it all around you like the rings around Saturn

Let me know now if you would like to protest this proceeding

A greeting, or would you rather progress

Onto a higher plateau, truly I’m taking it slow

Enough for you to seek the knowledge and to know

I’m the Q-U-E-E-N, L-A-T-I-F-A-H

Queen of the R.E.

Posse, the GLA which is Get Live Alright

You standing there chewing on your fingernails nervous

Watching me doing the live thing

Singing like a bird sings, ringing like the phone ring

I’m the Queen and you’re the underling

I’m never following, I follow none

The princess of the posse is a cool one

The Princess of the Posse, me say she a cool one

She rhyme American, she rock Jamaican

Princess of the Posse, me say she a cool girl

She rhyme Brooklyn, the Bronx, USA, the world

I’m the queen of the clan, with a mic in my hand

I step over suckers to position myself to rule this land

It’s a concoction, for my ability

To show the skeezers the meaning of humility

Cause they don’t know I’m the one to front on, or two

I’m snatching hearts cause I’m Latifah and I want to

I find it necessary to tell you to get off my tip

I’m kicking gold, so grab a hold and get a good grip

Stop the lying, the trying

The time buying, you’ve been denying

'Cause you’re dependent on me, the princess of the posse

I got the cards, so I’m dealing a death blow

You’re taking no crowns, put that on cease

My DJ’s name is Mark the 45 King

To the posse, peace

Got to let you know where I come from

The princess of the posse is a cool one

The Princess of the Posse, me say she a cool one

She rhyme American, she rock Jamaican

Princess of the Posse, me say she a cool girl

She rhyme Brooklyn, the Bronx, USA, the world

Latifah run the family

Me say me haffi do it for the R.E.

You try to be down, you can’t take the crown

Maybe from someone else but not me
