The Introduction - T.I.

I come apart babe, but now I’m fine

I’m checkin trouble sure, moving down the line

I come apart baby, but that’s ok cause

Trouble man, don’t get in my way

I’m just a hood nigga I ain’t never had shit

Just a bad attitude and a bad bitch

Duffle back full of tools and a half brick

30, 40, 50 grand in the mattress

Living on the edge jus a habit dawg

I’m fucked up in the head I don’t have it all

Ball like a dog push it to the limit

Bout my business trynna keep from letting pussy niggas in it

My priorities is follow, God first then the fam,

Then the hustle, then the money, failure ain’t in the plan

Satan on my heel he don’t want me to advance

I tell him go to hell sucka catch me if you can

Shit I am who I am, fresh up out of apologies

Sometimes I ain’t get in trouble trouble got in me

Guess it follows me but I stays on my hustle man

Still the motherfuckin man you can call me, Trouble Man

Trouble man, I always in trouble man

Grand hustle man, I’m the motherfuckin man

Trouble Man, stays in some trouble man

Bank rolls, rubber band, you can call me Trouble Man

Trouble man, I always in trouble man

Grand hustle man, I’m the motherfuckin man

Trouble Man, stays in some trouble man

Bank rolls, rubber band, you can call me Trouble Man

Drugs n rock n roll, ho you know how I roll

Just left the crossroads, my soul, unsold

Frigerated console, the curtains on my car door

Raw ho, caviar, sushi and escargot

Everywhere I go fresh to death and clean as a bar of soap

Getting blowed like trumpets in the wind in Chicago

God knows I’m hot as El Diablo

Wrist rockier than Colorado walk road

Also my flows I’m taking back although

My art’s so Leonardo Da Vinci Picasso

The rain gone come down on your head like tarp holes

I guess these other rappers that’s cool as far as soft goes

Sorry Charlie party’s over shorty shop closed

King home, bank roll on King Kong

Got these suckas in my scope with the beam on

Prayin for my downfall you can dream on

Make sure I’m back in the Maybach gettin my lean on

Trouble ain’t changed me, role model ain’t me

Don’t be angry now if I’m on the same street nigga

U turn haven’t you learned I’m, Trouble Man

Wait on my show just chose to squat with it

Real niggas Say I kick it the same way Pac did it

Tell all them sucka nigga what the bizz is

Upset cause they can’t do they thang like he did here

Shit, another year another bid done

No chump change big bank millions

Ya, my money old but I’m still young

Them nigga lookin for some drama I’m a give em some

No more beef a pimp will say goodbye to red meat

But cross a nigga path and your dead meat

Remain on my gang time, after time

'97 college bass head, 99 dime

'98 have provisions on 2−85 flyin

Skip where you meet KP and L. A Reid got signed

Cut to the present and the rap game mine

Some things never change it remains I’m, Trouble Man
