How many times

Do I have to tell you?

That these are my things

That these are my things

 

Been running your mouth

But people been listening

Say, if you wanna throw down

We can go downtime

Any time

Any damn time

Any time of the week

 

See I know that you're hating

Anticipating a breakthrough

I been there

Done that

Over with

Ain't nothing you can teach me

Ain't got no time for Le Baron

Ain't got no time for The Alibi

No we ain't cool boy

Don't even try

 

I'm going to ruin your life

I'm going to ruin your life

I'm going to ruin your life

 

See we ain't at school

Snitches get stitches

You might be fast boy

But I'm faster than you

So let's make this clear

No misunderstandings

Better watch where you're walking

And watch what you say

Any time

Any damn time

Any time of the week

 

See I know that you're hating

Anticipating a breakthrough

I been there

Done that

Over with

Ain't nothing you can teach me

Ain't got no time for Yo Yo

Ain't got no time for The Groucho

No we ain't cool

And you don’t even know

 

I’m going to ruin your life

I’m going to ruin your life

I’m going to ruin your life

I’m going to ruin your life

 

How many times

Do I have to tell you?

That these are my things

That these are my things

 

I’m going to ruin your life

I’m going to ruin your life

I’m going to ruin your life

I’m going to ruin your life
