Lyrics

0:00Featuring sybil
0:09When duty call the leader pep come hard
0:11Try to dis my girl salt up goes my guard

0:17But then next pump a hundred weight bench press
0:19So what it mean pep I'm not impressed
0:21Cuz I wear the pants and you wear the dress
0:23Punk you're lovin' stunk you're not a hunk

1:21Like oakley from the knicks yes I'm havin' a ball
1:23You think because you're leaving that I'm gonna take a fall
1:26It was small thing oooo it was really too small
1:28Livin' large boy standing ten feet tall
1:31Now my heart won't dent keep the money I lent
1:33And don't forget I pay the rent this is my apartment
1:35I'm independent

1:49So give my love boy to my independent funk
1:53Hey

2:16What are you stupid huh my pockets run deep
2:19So flex the rolex and the s*x that I gave ya
2:21In jail with no bail and now nothin' can save ya
2:24You want me to visit I ain't with it lizard
2:26We had magic now ya lost without the love wizard
2:28Ya had to cross me and now you lost me
2:31Get off me softy I'm the boss see
2:33You can't disguise the lies in your eyes you're not a heartbreaker
2:36You're a fraud and I'm bored you're a fake faker
2:38It's too late to debate with the moneymaker
2:40After while crackhead see ya later gator

4:09You're a baby so maybe you just needed a babysitter
4:12Bitter I figure I'm rid of a piece of litter
4:14Tiger tigger I bounce back and you're a quitter
4:16Your girl is gone for good so just forget her
4:19You're blind you'll never find another better
4:21Your mind stays on a behind in a tight sweater
4:24Burned your flowers and your love letters
4:26Never a tear will I shed
4:27I'm independent
4:30Yes I am independent
4:32I make my own money so don't tell me how to spend it
4:34Cuz you need me and I don't need you
