1) I-man don't like to get mix up (mix up, mix up) 
By pushing me mouth in something I can't prove (no, no, 
no) 
I-man don't take hearsay (hearsay) 
Them kind of things bring mix up (mix up, mix up) 
I-man no say what next man say (next man say) 
I like to prove things for I-self (for I-self) 
2) So I take a walk from 6th street 
Trying to prove something 
Going to the bottom of 8th street 
From corner to corner you can hear
