And you know she saying mira, hey Aye Aye Aye They say, a man searches for a woman like his mother The one you can't say no to when her eyes start to flutter When you, close them shutters Her mind always in the gutter Front of others she speak so eloquent She never stutters, Mama, hides her magic wand in the cupboard A magician in the kitchen, shrimp covered in butter Arroz frito with the beans dawg Thats what a man needs dawg I guess my father was a genius An adolescence screaming free us From them city slums In 1961 Posted, drinking plenty rum To get him out his gold chain you'll need like fifty guns And even then you might be pretty dumb Cuz papa was a playa, playa was a papa I ain't saying nada but dem gyales love dem shottas Yea he ran the block You couldn't stop him, not even an outstanding cop Them cops, couldn't stand my pops Just chillin in that Panama sun Drinking Panama rum Blvck Rose drop the drums You the baddest thing in Panama hun I been, searching forever, and you are Panama's one She said, uhh uhh Papi, you gon change your player ways To have me on a day to day Shittt, you gotta play to play So he changed up Pockets all banged up They was having Good Times and he was John Amos He said baby, lets make it to America It'll be a risk, but my love for you carry us Papa was a playa Playa was a papa I ain't saying nada but dem gyales love dem shottas, yea Dem gyales love dem shottas Oooo dem gyales love dem shottas, Cuz papa was a playa Playa was a papa I ain't saying nada but dem gyales love dem shottas, yea Dem gyales love dem shottas, oooo He wont tell me how he got up in this country But he told me them Texas white boys go hunting On immigrants crossing the desert, seeking better days Homie, if you brought your own, you better spray Get away From the rednecks artillery and border patrol They'll be mourning ya soul Goodbye, then it's back on the road To a clean slate in America, with dirt in ya toes It gotta get a little dark for that person to glow And pops, he just murk and go Made the earth unfold Dug a tunnel and them Feds still searching doe And she was right there lookin out for coyotes 5 years later chased by Yolandas and Nairobis I'm talking early 80s White pearly Mercedes Don't mess with that guy I heard he was crazy He told her you'll be safe as long as you with me Cuz he can walk up in the barrio with his jewelry All my relatives got 2 birthdays 2 first names Oh my oh my uhh All my relatives got 2 birthdays 2 first names, first names Would you navigate these trenches Or hide the gun if I faced a sentence Now would you Would you love me Would you f*ck me Would you touch me If I took you to the promise land Baby, would you trust me Papa was a playa Playa was a papa I ain't saying nada but dem gyales love dem shottas, yea Dem gyales love dem shottas Oooo dem gyales love dem shottas Cuz papa was a playa Playa was a papa I ain't saying nada but dem gyales love dem shottas, yea Dem gyales love dem shottas, oooo
