1999 Lyrics

[Intro]
Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy

[Hook]
Like it's 1990 mothafuckin' 9, my nigga
Nigga 'bout to get mine, my nigga
Like it's 1990 mothafuckin' 9, my nigga
Timbs on, Goose down, my nigga
Like it's 1990 mothafuckin' 9, my nigga
Like when Puffy met Shyne, my nigga
Like it's 1990 mothafuckin' 9, my nigga
9 milli, 9, 9, my nigga

[Verse 1]
I still remember
Used to have the dope Perry Ellis goose down
Like a trill nigga
I still remember
Boy the bus used to be a broke nigga's Limousine
Keep it real with yah
Pardon our behavior
Niggas had the 2 for 1 bags like they trappin' with a Groupon
Mothafuck a layup
These Jordan 13s had a nigga lookin' cleaner than a newborn

[Pre-Chorus]
I got the shit that these niggas is made for
I got the shit that they made for, I
I got the shit that these niggas is waitin' for
Nigga they waitin' for, I
I got that thing that they gon' catch a wave for
Swear that I don't take no days off
I take the dope and I flex it in wave form
No no behavior, they know the savior
[Hook]
Like it's 1990 mothafuckin' 9, my nigga
Nigga 'bout to get mine, my nigga
Like it's 1990 mothafuckin' 9, my nigga
Timbs on, Goose down, my nigga
Like it's 1990 mothafuckin' 9, my nigga
Like when Puffy met Shyne, my nigga
Like it's 1990 mothafuckin' 9, my nigga
9 milli, 9, 9, my nigga

[Verse 2]
I still remember
Lightskin Shelly told a nigga that I wasn't in the league
I still remember
I still remember back then cause I wasn't in the lead
Had to get right
Had to get right, word to Chuck D, a nigga got active
Miss me with the bullshit
You ain't for the win, nah we ain't even on the same axis

[Pre-Chorus]
I got the shit a nigga made
I got the shit they wanna talk about
I got the shit they wanna pray for
There ain't nothin' here to talk about
I tell them niggas quit sleepin'
Catch the wave, don't fall off the deep
I make a bitch pledge allegiance
Boy they 'bout to get baptized
[Hook]
Like it's 1990 mothafuckin' 9, my nigga
Nigga 'bout to get mine, my nigga
Like it's 1990 mothafuckin' 9, my nigga
Timbs on, Goose down, my nigga
Like it's 1990 mothafuckin' 9, my nigga
Like when Puffy met Shyne, my nigga
Like it's 1990 mothafuckin' 9, my nigga
9 milli, 9, 9, my nigga

[Bridge]
Yo, you don't gotta tell me
Yo, you don't gotta tell me, feel it
I know that you want it
I know cause I've been lit
Yo, you don't gotta say it (Nah)
You don't gotta say nothin' now
You know that you want it
I'll put that shit down
Yo, you don't gotta tell me
Yo, you don't gotta tell me, feel it
I know that you want it
I know cause I've been with it
I know what you're sayin'
You don't gotta say nothin' now
You know that you want it
I put that shit down
[Outro]
1990 mothafuckin' 9, my nigga

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
