Nuff' Of The Ruff' Stuff' Lyrics - Nature Of A Sista - Queen Latifah

Get funky with it 

[ VERSE 1 ] 

I told you before: you burn when you play with fire 

So take off your hats, matter of fact hail the new Sire 

You're hungry as hell, so i'm cookin up the chowder 

It's laced with ingredients, gon' come on like gunpowder 

Pom-pom! lick a shot, then I got to order 

I'm runnin for the border for causin disorder 

Pom-pom! lick a shot, got on my defenses 

I'm runnin for the fences, of course I'm relentless 

The particular name of this queen is Latifah 

I've often been classified as a feminine teacher 

Collectively capture the heart of a nation 

Love my culture and show appreciation 

You're lookin for the black influ'? 

I do want too give it to you 

What are you mad? 

Give me some of what you had! 

You can huff-huff, puff-puff and bluff-bluff 

But I got nuff of the ruff stuff

[ VERSE 2 ] 

Now nuff of the ruff stuff, that's what I do, and I do it well 

The proof is in the puddin, I show and prove, not show and tell 

Talk tales, you get caught up in a crossfire 

Buckshot must be what you want and desire 

I write concepts, I don't be frontin or be buggin 

I solely write the rhymes for the beats that you be lovin 

It's a love thang, the Queen doin her thang 

If I was a liquid, you would drink me like Tanq' 

You think I'm kickin things that I myself don't even heed? 

I rap not for the love of music, but for greed? 

"Latifah's booty, yo, she could never succeed" 

Shiiit... 

You watch me do it and boom it, the Flavor Unit will snap necks 

You a-fi listen a likkle, you fi go buy the cassette 

You're starvin, cause you ain't had enough 

That's right, nuff of the ruff stuff

[ VERSE 3 ] 

You talk about flavor... 

I got enough flavor to make a grapefruit sweet 

Get old ladies jumpin out of their seats 

Change a peach to a pear to a plum with a little sun 'n rays 

I got flavor for days 

Now I'm the type that the fellas call a honey, and 

>From me you know you get a worth for your money, and 

This is no meaningless attack, I gave you a chance 

Matter of fact, yo, I ordered them to 'dance 

For me', they tried to turn me 'inside out' 

They felt the 'wrath of my madness', I let them 'come into my house' 

It's called 'latifah's law', for the criminal to curse 

And all the gentlemen know its rule: 'ladies first' 

Not the typical female that tends to 

Fall vitim to the 'evil that men do' 

Small puff, I call your bluff 

I'm not mad, I just had enuff of the ruff stuff 

(Ruff and tuff) 

(And all that stuff) 

Everybody know Latifah love positivity 

Now positivity erase negativity 

Mi comin inna di dance? 

Me rollin with the Flavor Unit posse 

As a black woman mi want equality 

Equality, and di freedom to be me 

Mi have a mother Rita, only call her Mommy 

Likkle brother and sister, Angelo and Kelly 

A brother in them laws, but mi call him Winki 

Lost mi daddy and? family 

? black? black country 

Believe in one God, one tribe, one destiny 

Cease!
