LL Cool J - Strictly Business Lyrics
Verse 1:Back in the days I made up my mindThat I would be a king, you know, genuineReign supreme at the top of the heapAnd like working all day, no time to sleepDestined to rise, in front of your eyesSo we surmise, it's time for the prizeThe time has come, we gotta be number oneThe world is full of power and we got to get someNo more beggin and useless teardropsSo I'm trading these teardrops for propsGoin' all the way and with my powerful teamConquering the world and I'ma rise like creamAll out, putting heads to bedCause I'm a grown man and I hate to get spoon-fedWisdom, son, I rose in the eastTill we reach the top, won't be no peace, cause it'sChorus:Strictly business, strictly businessAin't no way I'm gonna stopStrictly business, ain't no time to get moreGotta make it to the topVerse 2:Everything we do, gotta be brand newThe moves we make, gotta make the earth shakeSitting at my desk, cause I manifest to my teamBig plans that'll make us the bestCause we can rule this game we all playPop champagne and make everyday a holidaySmooth as a rose but hard like steelFrom now on, I'ma make my dreams realOn a mission, gotta get thereIf you wanna rule, you gotta be in thereOur masterplan is the bestAnd ain't a man alive that'll beat us to a conquestCause this is the reason we was bornTo rock on and on and on and onLook at my eyes, it's hypnotizingWord is bond, we gotta keep on risingChorusStrictly business, life is hard to handleAin't no way I'm gonna stopStrictly business, ain't no time to get moreGotta make it to the top
