[BlackThought]
7
I'm just playin the wall, I'm just playin the wall
8
Coolin with my niggaz on the right, hold tight
9
Late Friday night strobelight shine bright blind
10
Coolin at this party with the sugars on my mind
11
It's the sex patrol, the sex patrol
12
Yeah the young sis was stacked wicked, wanted me to kick it
13
Said I never dance, made advance outside
14
Took a glance to expect, Shorty was correct
15
so it seemed, her name Shavon, age seventeen
16
I flipped when I seen her eyes, bloodshot green
17
She said she wanted riches and a nigga with cash
18
Lex Land' or a Path', didn't know the half
19
I react to flip the script and get ill
20
My man Malik B kept telling me to relax
21
Diggin how you're livin on some unreal high
22
as I realize -- you're not that fly
23
You ain't fly
24
You ain't fly
25
You ain't fly

29
Dig it, you see sisters is thinkin that I snooze
30
She must don't know, I have a sister confused
31
Thinkin that she's pretty and saditty when I spill
32
She said, "I might, I think I can, alright I will."
33
Tossed up was the digits cause the game is like splendor
34
I said, "Sabrina yea, I met you way back in December; you remember."
35
She said, "I guess."
36
Substitute to Santa, she was sittin on the desk
37
And then she said, "You never called me; Mailk you never tried to press.
38
You never tried to push the seven buttons and address."
39
I said, "Hold up sis -- you're out of order, man you lost it.
40
My name ain't Jake; Malik's no Flake that's Frosted."
41
Tryin to cause a scene Sabrina's rest is self-redeemed
42
She thought she was cute, but never made it on my team
43
I should beam up, about-face fall out
44
And don'tcha even dare to ask why -- because you're not that fly
45
You ain't fly
46
You ain't fly
47
You ain't fly
48
so go 'head, witcha self

51
Mmmmmm strollin in my Pumas down the avenue
52
Not tokin on a J, not sippin on a brew
53
Saw a soul sister on the streets of five-two
54
"MMM, my name's Question, ummmm, who are you?"
55
She didn't respond, she didn't respond
56
???*MUFFLED VOICE*??? -- Continue on
57
Thought to myself, should of said a little louder
58
Bet hurry up before she gets lost in the crowd of
59
"Excuse me Miss, excuse me miss"
60
"No, I'm not havin it!" I just got dissed
61
I didn't get mad, was calm and collect
62
I didn't call her bitch, I didn't break her neck
63
Start to wonder why the brothers disrespect the cutie
64
It's a place of 180's and the high-priced floozie
65
As she walked away, man I couldn't deny
66
Started lying to myself, man she wasn't that fly
67
You ain't fly
68
You ain't fly
69
You ain't fly
70
so go 'head, witcha self
71

[BlackThought]
73
Black, butter umm... that's what I be
74
Had to tell a girl to set her mind free
75
Use the Third Eye possibly you will see
76
what you get, with material objects
77
Wanna be the envy of the whole projects gettin loot
78
Pretty in your cute limited Express suit
79
Baby I can see everything you wanna be
80
See you're gamin as a key to escape poverty
81
Known to be shown around, sport about her niggaz
82
Thinkin you a woman cause your ass got bigger
83
Kickin it to me as if I don't know the time
84
But I'm the BlackThought, I'm all up in your mind
85
I figure you the kind to say, "Give me a call"
86
but then switch to act strange, countin on my change
87
Pay to the order of who??? Not you
88
Why? You're not THAT fly
89
You ain't fly
90
You ain't fly
91
You ain't fly
92
so go 'head, witcha self
93
