I'm Housin' - Live at the Grand Olympic Auditorium, Los Angeles, CA - September 2000

Coolin' on the scene like a horse in a stable
A brother got ill, tried to snatch a fat cable
I stepped back like it wasn't no thing
I punched him in the jaw with the fat gold ring

I had an ace in the hole when it came to that
Yo Z, you was packin', you know I was strapped
Posse kept rollin', it was hard to get with 'em
So I stepped back and unbuttoned my Lee denim

They kept coming just like I figured
So I stepped back and started sprayin' niggas
What a way to go out, out like a sucker
But I'm on track like a Long Island train

That can head up your mission, suckers who be dissing
Always on my jock like a snake, always hissing
Grabbing and tapping me like Luther Vandross
Take me to the bar for the drink and make a toast

Give your best wishes to the best MC
Play the thing, you know you hear me

Because I'm housin'
'Cause I'm housin'
'Cause I'm housin'
'Cause I'm housin'
Because I'm housin'
Because I'm housin'

Because I'm housin'
What a way to go out, out like a sucker
What a way to go out, out like a sucker
'Cause I'm housin'
What a way to go out, out like a sucker
'Cause I'm housin'

Coolin' at a party, no better yet disco
Head feelin' mellow from a bottle of Cisco
Move
To crush and fry a sucker MC like crisco

Gimme the cue, check one, two
Don't try to come off on me, because you doo-doo
You treatin' me the Z to the D, like a stepchild
Let me tell you homeboy you're livin' foul

MC's, you know who you are
On the bandwagon, why Z? 'Cause you're a star
This is the year when the joker's are wild
When a fag can't hack it, try to bite your style

I get hip to the scheme, before it happens
If it gets wild, but I'll start cappin'
But for now, since everything's calm
Relate to the matter as I drop the bomb

Because I'm housin'
'Cause I'm housin'
'Cause I'm housin'
'Cause I'm housin'
'Cause I'm housin'
'Cause I'm housin'

'Cause I'm housin'
What a way to go out, out like a sucker
'Cause I'm housin'
What a way to go out, out like a sucker

What a way to go out, out like a sucker
'Cause I'm housin'
What a way to go out, out like a sucker
'Cause I'm housin'
Because I'm housin'
Come on

What a way to go out
Out like a sucker, boy
I'm housin'
'Cause I'm housin'
'Cause I'm housin'
'Cause I'm housin'
'Cause I'm housin'
