Verse 1
Trippa jibba jabba when y'flyin' on the weather
but the weather's kinda nasty, makes y' want a pasty
wait up! hold up! can't y'see i'm livin' in
y'mind, in y'soul, in y'troubled lil' world.
you're droppin' bomps and i can't see
if i'm gonna knock y'down or i'm gonna be a tree.
but-you-can't-see-that-I'm-not-your-head-so-don't-you-want-to-fly-and-be-a-king?
Verse 2.
Just fly and be a hound dog, raisin the king and now y'dyin' for it
can't control this thing o'yours and now you're itchin for it,
saturday just ain't the same without the game........
little mister blister with his funky little sister got a
pocket full of posies, ring-a-ring-a-rosie
but-you-can't-see-that-I'm-not-your-head-so-don't-you-want-to-fly-and-be-a-king?
Slow funk rap.
you think you have control of me
just look at your life
you've got my dick in your hand but you
don't know what to do

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official AFORAFRO tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
