Bass lines affect me, when my rhymes direct me
Forgive the crowds, oh, Lord, they know not why they sweat me
Biting's against the law in the place that I live
So I lock up the door with the keys to my crib
They call me the high priestess of disaster
Although I'm not a dread, and not a Rasta
There's never been a word I can't master
I've always been a piddly pastor
I reign: The lesson of today
You have to listen to each and every single word I have to say
Because the ruler, Lord Ramsey, is on my side
And I'm the princess of the posse so, yo, take it light
Princess of the posse, me say she a cool one
She rhyme American, she rock Jamaican
Princess of the posse, me say she a cool girl
She rhyme Brooklyn, the Bronx, USA, the world
You try to dissect my rhymes to see if there's a pattern
I bounced it all around you, like the rings around Saturn
Let me know, now, if you would like to protest this proceeding
A greeting, or would you rather progress onto a higher plateau?
Truly, I'm takin' it slow enough for you to seek the knowledge and to know
I'm the Q-U-E-E-N-L-A-T-I-F-A-H
Queen of the R.E. Posse
The GLA, which is Get Live Alright
You standing there, chewing on your fingernails, nervous
Watching me doin' the live thing
Singin' like a bird sing, ringin', like the phone ring
I'm the Queen and you're the underling
I'm never following, I follow none
The princess of the posse is a cool one
Princess of the posse, me say she a cool one
She rhyme American, she rock Jamaican
Princess of the posse, me say she a cool girl
She rhyme Brooklyn, the Bronx, USA, the world
I'm the Queen of the clan, with a mic in my hand
I step over sucka's to position myself to rule this land
It's a concoction for my ability
To show the skeeza's the meaning of humility, huh
'Cause they don't know, I'm not the one to front-on or to
I'm snatchin' hearts, 'cause I'm Latifah and I want to
I find it necessary to tell you to get off my tip
I'm kickin' gold, so grab ahold and get a good grip
Stop the lyin', the tryin', the time-buyin', you've been denyin'
'Cause you're dependent on me, the princess of the posse
Yo, I got the cards, so I'm dealin' a death-blow
You're takin' no crowns, put that on cease
My DJ's name is Mark, The 45 King
To the posse, peace
Gotta' let you know where I come from
The princess of the posse is a cool one
Princess of the posse, me say she a cool one
She rhyme American, she rock Jamaican
Princess of the posse, me say she a cool girl
She rhyme Brooklyn, the Bronx, USA, the world
Latifah run the family
Me say me haffi do it for the RE Posse
You try to be down, you can't take the crown
Maybe from someone else, but not me
Latifah run the family
Me say me haffi do it for the RE Posse
You try to be down, you can't take the crown
Maybe from someone else, but not me
