Lyrics:

[Notorious B.I.G.]

Good evenin ladies and gentlemen

How's everybody doin tonite?

I'd like to welcome to the stage, the lyrically acclaimed, ha

I like this young man, because, when he came out

he came out wit the phrase, he went from ashy to classy

Ha, I like that

So everybody in the house, give a warm, round of applause for

The Notorious B.I.G. *clapping*

The Notorious B.I.G. ladies and gentlemen give it up for him ya'll



Uhhh

A nigga never been as broke as me, I like that

When I was young I had two pair of Lees, besides that

The pin stripes and the gray (uh-huh)

The one I wore on Mondays and Wednesdays

While niggas flirt, I'm sewing tigers on my shirt

and alligators

Ya wanna see the inside, huh, I see ya later

Here come the drama, oh, that's that nigga wit the fake, blaow!

Why you punch me in my face, stay in ya place

Play ya position, here come my intuition

Go in this nigga pocket

Rob him while his friends watchin

That hoes clockin, here comes respect

His crew's your crew, or they might be next

Look at they man eye, BIG man they never try

So we roll wid em, stole wid em

I mean loyalty, niggaz bought me milks at lunch

The milks was chocolate, the cookies, buttercrunch

In here, eyes crossed from blue and white dust

Pass the blunt



[112]

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on

Just keep on pressin on

Sky is the limit and you know that you can have

what you want, pressin what you want

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on

Just keep on pressin on

Sky is the limit and you know that you can have

what you want, be what you want, have what you want, be what you want



[Notorious B.I.G.]

Uh-huh, I was a shame, my crew was lame

I have enough heart for most of em

Long as I got stuff from most of em

It's on, even when I was wrong I got my point across

They depicted me the boss, of course

My orange box-cutter make the world go round

Plus I'm fuckin, bitches ain't my homegirls now

Start stackin, dabbled in crack, gun packin

Nickname Medina, make the seniors tote my ninas

From gym class, to Englass, pass off a global

The only nigga wit a mobile, Can't You See like Total

Gettin larger in waist and taste

Ain't no tellin where this felon is headin, just in case

Keep a shell at the tip of ya melon, clear da space

Ya brain was a terrible thing ta waste

Eighty-eight long gates, snatch initial name plates

Smokin spliffs wit niggaz, real life beginner killers

Prayin God forgive us for being sinners, help us out



[112]

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on

Just keep on pressin on

Sky is the limit and you know that you can have

what you want, pressin what you want

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on

Just keep on pressin on

Sky is the limit and you know that you can have

what you want, be what you want, have what you want, be what you want



[Notorious B.I.G.]

After realizin, to master enterprisin

I ain't have ta be in school by ten, I was in

Began to encounter, wit my counter-parts

I holla burn the block apart, break it down into sections

Drugs by the selection

Some use pipes, others use in-jec-tions

Syringe sold seperately, Frank the deputy

Quick to grab my Smith-n-Wessun, like my dick was missin

To protect my position, my corner, my layer

While we out here, say the hustlas prayer

If the game shakes me or breaks me

I hope it makes me a better man

Take a better stand

Put money in my moms hand

Get my daughter this college plan, so she don't need no man

Stay far from timid

Only make moves when ya heart's in it

And live the phrase Sky's The Limit

Motherfucker... see you chumps on top



[112]

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on

Just keep on pressin on

Sky is the limit and you know that you can have

what you want, be what you want

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on

Just keep on pressin on

Sky is the limit and you know that you can have

what you want, pressin what you want

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on

Just keep on pressin on

Sky is the limit and you know that you can have

what you want, be what you want

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on

Just keep on pressin on

Sky is the limit and you know that you can have

what you want, be what you want

...

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on

Just keep on pressin on

Sky is the limit and you know that you can have

what you want, be what you want...
