|
I kick it root down |
|
I put my root down |
|
It's not a put down |
|
I put my foot down |
|
And then i make some love, i put my root down |
|
Like sweetie pie by the stone alliance |
|
Everbody knows i'm known for dropping science |
|
I'm electric like dick hyman |
|
I guess you'd expect to catch the crew rhymin' |
|
Never let you down with the stereo sound |
|
So mike, get on the mic and turn it out |
|
We're talking root down, i put my boot down |
|
And if you want to battle me, you're putting loot down |
|
I said root down, it's time to scoot down |
|
I'm a step up to the mic in my goose down |
|
Come up representing from the upper west |
|
Money makin' putting me to the test |
|
Sometimes i feel as though i've been blessed |
|
Because i'm doing what i want so i never rest |
|
Well, i'm not coming out goofy like the fruit of the loom guys |
|
Just strutting like the meters with the look-ka py py |
|
'cause downtown brooklyn is where i was born |
|
But when the snow is falling, then i'm gone |
|
You might think that i'm a fanatic |
|
A phone call from utah and i'm throwing a panic |
|
But we break it from the root when we kick it on down |
|
Jimmy smith is my man, i want to give him a pound |
|
(chorus) |
|
Ad rock don't stop, just get on the mic with the tic and the toc |
|
I'll fill you with the fuckin' rim like brim |
|
I'm walking down your block and you say that's him |
|
There goes the guy with the funky sound |
|
The beastie boys you know we come to get down |
|
Because i've got the flow where i grab my dick |
|
And say oh my god, that's the funky shit |
|
So i'm going to pass the mic and cause a panic |
|
The original nasal kid is doing damage |
|
Every morning i took the train to high street station |
|
Doing homework on the train, what a fucked up situation |
|
On the way back up hearing battle tapes |
|
Through the underground, underneath the sky scrapes |
|
Like harlem world battles on the zulu beat show |
|
It's kool moe d vs. busy bee there's one you should know |
|
Enough of that, i just want to give some respect due |
|
M.c.a. grab the mic and the ma bell will connect you |
|
Bob marley was a prophet for the freedom fight |
|
"if dancin' prays to the lord then i shall feel alright" |
|
I'm feeling good to play a little music |
|
Tears running down my face 'cause i love to do it |
|
And no one can stop this flow from flowing on |
|
A flow master in disaster with a sound that's gone |
|
I'll give a little shout out to my dad and mom |
|
For bringing me into this world and so on |
|
(chorus) |
