Tough (Technotronic)

Better be tough I have a special little sauce, So I was at a party Something that I never hide, Is the way that I ride A bass line, or a stare Or a bass drum, suckas, Comes naturally ‘Cus I have originality E is never scared Now, you knoe I’m prepared Is it the same story? You got something for me? Nah, I’ve got something for you It’s positivity Negative I never give Or maybe you’re dissing me On account of the fact that me I’m realistic, real And this is just the way I feel The deal is to respect the other man’s views But the other man’s views are just A hand with a bullet through it?
