of V-A-P-O-R-S

Everybody wanna be your buddy and

Like toll [D] builders
that call [G] skyscrapers
And you're feeling, [Dm]
nothing can [G] save you, but this is the [D] season of catching the [Gm] vapors.
And since I got [D] time, what I'm going to [Gm] do, is tell you how they [Dm] spread it throughout my [G] crew.
Well, you all know DJ [D] Swann, who sang on my [G] records, make the music know, [D] body beats the biz world.
Back in the day before Lips began, [G] he used to try to talk to this girl named Fran.
The type of [D] female will fly Gucci [G] with, with big trunks, [D] jewelry, and extensions in her [G] hair.
But now, she's a dealer, what Swann tried to [D] kick it, she'll waste that [G] talking about.
Baby, please, you work for UPS.
Since he wasn't [D] no type of big drug dealer, my man CJ Swann didn't appeal to her.
But now he trucks gold and wear fly-valley [G] boots, gloves leather fashion and touch-toe suits.
Now she stopped [D] frontin' and wants to [G] speak and be coming to all the [D] shows every single weekend.
To get his deeper number, she be begging [G] please.
Dying for the day to get skis.
She caught the vapors.
[Gm] [D] [Gm] She caught the vapors.
[Dm]

[Dm] She caught the [Gm] vapors.
[D] [G] I got another [Dm] partner that's calm and [G] plain.
He goes by the [D] name of the Big Daddy [Gm] Kane.
The mellow type of [D] fellow that's laid [G] back, back in the days, he was nothing like that.
I remember when he used to fight every day.
What the grown-ups would tell him, he would never obey.
He wore his pants hanging [D] down and his sneakers [Gm] untied and a rasta-type gangle tilted [Dm] to the side.
Around [Gm] his neighborhood, people treated him bad and said he was the worst [Dm] thing his mom's ever had.
[Gm] He said he would grow up to be nothing but a hoolum or either in jail or someone would shoot him.
But now he's grown [Dm] up to be a surprise [G] Big Daddy got a [Dm] record-seller [Gm] worldwide.
Now the same people back [Dm] in the day don't like him at the [G] job saying, can I borrow a dollar?
Ooh, [Dm] you're a star, now they caught the vapors.
[Dm]
[Gm] [D] They caught the vapors.

[Dm] Now I got a [Gm] cousin by the name of Barney.
[D] Better known to y'all as Kamasakoovee.
[G] He cuts scratch plans for him with finesse.
And all that mess.
I remember when he [Dm] first started to rock [G] and try to get this [D] job at a record shop.
He was in it to win it, but the boss wanted [G] it.
Said, sorry Mr.
Lee, [D] but this don't help on [G] it.
Now my cousin [D] wants to try on [G] and on and on until [D] the life breaks a dime.
To get this jail beat in the back, [G] then they look right past him and be like, next.
Now for the year of the H-A-A, Koo-Vee is making dollars so my cousin's life's great.
[Gm] He walked into the same record shop before and the boss be like, born, welcome, Summersault,
offering him a job.
But now he don't want it.
[G] Damn it feels good [D] to see people up on it.
Cause I remember when at first they wasn't.

[D]
[G] They [Gm] call it the papers.
[Dm]
[Gm] They call it the papers.
[G] They [Gm] call it the papers.
Last subject of the story is about Mr.
Mark.
I [G] had to work for mine [Dm] to put your body in park.
[G] When I was a teenager I wanted to be down with a lot of MCs, DJs, crews and techs.
So I screwed on Oval Street, I said can I be down champ?
They said no one treated me like a wet food stent.
[Gm] After getting rejected [D] I was very depressed.
[G] Sat and wrote some damn food around at my rep.
When I used to come to [D] parties they make me pay.
What happened back then, get it on like I can rap that day.
I was never into girls, I was just into my music.
[G] To act like I'm one of the keepers that are trying to use it.
But now things switch [D] without Billy.
Do you remember the Evan Noble string cheat?
We used to be down back in the days.
It [G] happens all the time and never cease to amaze.
They call it the papers.
[Gm]
[D] They call it the papers.
