So Fly Lyrics


Yeah, welcome to tha Church, Volume II
Exclusive 213
Got my nephew Nate Dogg in da house
Nate Dogg holla at 'em, where you at?
Ridin' in my car
And I'm listening to the radio
I'm listening to a sad girl sing
Sing about how she got her heart broke
You were reaching for stars
I just want me something natural
When you're alone it gets mighty cold
Don't act as if you did not know
She let me play with her heart
I'm working late I said, "I'll soon be home"
All the while the girl was home alone
Let me tell you what she crying for, why? 'Cuz I'm fly
Yeah, he super sly, Nate Dogg
Ohh ohh ohh I'm fly, yeah

You know he supa sly
But me I'm supa dupa and I'm supa dupa fly
I'd be the great at this I know you waited this
And I wanted this to be elaborate and so strenuous
And then you just slide by and wiz-ave
You on another piz-age, is that the way you gon' be-hiz-ave?
I know you're feeling all hurt inside
But won't you talk to a playa? Let me help out your pride
I'm like a counselor, a pastor, a priest or a physchologist
A shrink, on a freak, peep my technique
And I wear minks, gator boots
And I'm the rip that gets the loot
And I ain't afraid to shoot
And I love to toot toot
Beep beep as I slide up the street
I'm from the LBC and I don't know what y'all done heard about me
But I'm a C-R-I-P with some P-I-M-P too
I'm a real pimp playa from the 213 crew
Now look here boo
If you gonna bang or hang with tha Dogg
You best to get in
Holla at her Nate Dogg
Ridin' in my car
And I'm listening to the radio
I'm listening to a sad girl sing
Sing about how she got her heart broke
You were reaching for stars
I just want me something natural
When you're alone it gets mighty cold
Don't act as if you did not know
She let me play with her heart
I'm working late I said, "I'll soon be home"
All the while the girl was home alone
Let me tell you what she crying fo', why? 'Cuz I'm fly
Yeah, he super sly, Nate Dogg
Ohh ohh ohh I'm fly, yeah
Warren G, 3 piece with a mink
Gotta think my shit stinks
Stacy Adams with a drink
Pockets pad up, they come from Brinks
So what the ladies wink
You the one in the Mercedes
Shotgun with the thing
Coat chillin' watchin', "The Lion King"
Crying and thangs
'Cuz I'm with Snoop and Nate, singing, rhyming and things
I'm out late 'cuz I'm rhyming for change
I ain't with dime for dames
Hop back and I'm trying to aim
At everything, that be hating my fame
Since regulatin', been lacing the game
Ain't no mistake in the game
Two-one mother f'in dwizzle sippin' on the sizzle
And that's for shizzle
Four times for da riddles
You know these bars
Everywhere we go, you know who us are
You could tell by the car
Champagne caviar
Bubble bath, I say I love you and I laugh
Ridin' in my car
And I'm listening to the radio
I'm listening to a sad girl sing
Sing about how she got her heart broke
You were reaching for stars
I just want me something natural
When you're alone it gets mighty cold
Don't act as if you did not know
She let me play with her heart
I'm working late I said, "I'll soon be home"
All the while the girl was home alone
Let me tell you what she crying fo', why? 'Cuz I'm fly
Yeah he super sly, Nate Dogg
Ohh ohh ohh I'm fly, yeah

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
ModeNine is a Nigerian rapper often regarded as one of the best rappers in Africa. He is known to epitomize what he calls Afro Hip Hop (which signifies African hip hop) with his amazing metaphorical lyrics, deep relevant punchlines and creativity. ModeNine was greatly influenced by artists like KRS-One, Roy Ayers, Kurtis Blow and Big Daddy Kane.



ModeNine grew up in London, England. He came back to Nigeria in 1979, where he studied Building Technology. He graduated in 1999 and had his National Youth Service Corps program in Calabar. His parents were not pleased with him when he dabbled into music in 2000 since as typical parents, they wanted him to get a job. For him, it was like a dream come true since he had always loved music, especially rap music. He pictured himself doing what Rakim and Eric B did on TV. He hung out with friends in school rapping and he wanted to make a rap album in 1991 for the fun of it. ModeNine worked with Rhythm 84.7fm in Abuja (a sister station to Rhythm 93.7 Lagos). He worked as a small time radio presenter featuring up-coming rap acts like Terry Da Rapman and Six-Foot Plus. He quit a few years later and went to Lagos having secured a deal with Paybacktyme Records. He recorded an album called IX files. Although it never hit the market but singles like 'It's About To Get Ugly' and 'Schooling' emerged from the unreleased album. This brought him in tight competition with other hip hop acts in very hard-to-be-known music industry where rap itself has fully reached a grand lucrative stage compared to the US. However, ModeNine reared his head with a new mixtape called Malcolm IX released under paybacktyme records in 2004. It had tracks like 'Head','Orisuna basement freestlye' and '419 state of mind'. The latter was played on Rick Dees top 40. The mixtape reinvigorated his career. ModeNine met with the CEO of QuestionMark Entertainment known as Luciano Gabriel a number of times, but a show at French cultural centre tagged 'E ka bo'. Kevin was impressed by ModeNine's performance and he invited him to come feature on one of the street Monks tracks.

At QuestionMark entertainment he propelled the underground music to mainstream when he dropped the deserving 5 mics album called 'Pentium IX' whic sold out completely. This album contains tracks like 'Rock on', 'Lagos state of mind'. Pentium IX has set a new standard for other African rappers coming out with album.

ModeNine has performed alongside some of the finest emcees like Guru of Gangstarr, Wyclef and in 2005 he opened for Akon in Port Harcourt, Nigeria. His last single CRY featuring label mate Nnenna got massive airplay and on the 15th of October 2006, ModeNine won 3 Channel O awards. Read more on Last.fm.
