Uhh, uhh, uhh, c´mon!
Woo! Uh-huh
Yeah, more real life (grrrrrrrrrr)
That´s how it is baby, you know it´s real
More real life, you know it´s real (grrrrrrrrrr)
From the dog, y´know?
You know it´s real, uh-huh
You know it´s real (grrrrrrrrrr)
Shit is always real baby, forever

My peoples say they got love for the dog right?
They holla like "Whattup dog?" Alright
Cause no matter what streets in a dog´s life
And I´m the type of dog gon´ go all night
Some cats think that it´s a game that we´re playin here
You keep thinkin it´s a joke, I ain´t playin here
Fuck around if you want, I leave billionaire
Do what, go where? Shit I´m stayin here
This whole motherfuckin rap shit is all mine (WHAT?!)
Just thought I´d let you know one mo´ time (uhh)
Shit, I ain´t said nuttin when it was yo´ time
Now, niggaz is mad, cause "Ain´t No Sunshine"
And you cats won´t like it when the rain hits (UHH!)
That´s the nigga X on the same shit (uh!)
And if you wanna see how fucked up the game gets?
Watch what they do when you ain´t shit

[Chorus: Stephanie Mills]
What you gonna do when I´m nothing?
You´re crazy about my styyyyyyyyyle
What you gonna do when I´m nothing?
Tell me nowwwwwwwwwww.. ohhhhh-ohhhhhh

[DMX]
Uhh, uhh, uhh, uhh
Every cat I meet like, "Show me love!"
Every girl I meet like, "I want a hug!"
Shit I might be just tryin to pick somethin up
Can I get an autograph -- man, what the fuck?!
Is the love gon´ be the same when
we start to realize that the game ends (uh-huh)
Even me, will I have the same friends? (uhh)
Even when I ain´t got the same Benz (UHH)
What about when the dough get low (woo!)
Shoulda peeped money from the get-go
Disappeared, ain´t that a bitch yo?
Now you know, that´s that bullshit yo
Can´t forget all them fake "love you" bitches (uh-HUH!)
Take ´em to the room, wanna fake you bitches (uh-HUH!)
Walk through the mall wanna touch you bitches (uh-HUH!)
Listen! I got a wife, I don´t trust you bitches (c´mon!)

[Chorus: Stephanie Mills]
What you gonna do when I´m nothing?
You´re crazy about my styyyyyyyyyle
What you gonna do when I´m nothing?
Please don´t have me acting wild
What you gonna do when I´m nothing?
Tell me nowwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
Tell me now, tell me now (WHAT?!)
Tell me (WHAT?!) what you gonna tell me? (WHAT?!)
Tell me (uh) tell me (uh)
What you gonna tell me?

[DMX]
Holla at the boy if you know the truth
See what I´m doin, I´m tryin to show the youth
Trust me I been through it so I got the proof
Give ´em somethin to eat that ain´t gon´ break a tooth
And everybody knows how I get down (c´mon)
Show the dog love when he hit town (c´mon)
They don´t give a fuck who I´m with now (c´mon)
V.I.P. don´t give a fuck where I sit now (aight?!)
All this shit changed but it´s still the same
But you gotta do it in order to play the game
Keep shit brief when you say my name (f´real)
Give me the love, nigga fuck the fame (f´real)
When the shit is gone, where you gon´ be? (hmmmmm)
When I look no more, what you gon´ see? (hmmmmm)
Shit, a muh´fucker lookin hungry (aight?!)
And even then, is you gon´ love me?

[Chorus 2X: Stephanie Mills]
What you gonna do when I´m nothing?
You´re crazy about my styyyyyyyyyle
What you gonna do when I´m nothing?
Tell me nowwwwwwwwwww.. ohhhhh-ohhhh
