Thornridge High School days
It's like this y'all, It's like that y'all
We represent the hip hop, but not the rap y'all
It's like this y'all, It's like that y'all
We represent the hip hop, but not the rap y'all
It's like this y'all, It's like that y'all
We represent the hip hop, but not the rap y'all
It's like this y'all, It's like that y'all
We represent the hip hop, yeah
… Back in the days before I signed a line
When the baby face never got paid to rhyme
When Kane released Raw and everything was fine
Before the rap industry messed with my mind
I used to run to the jam snot nosed and all
… Never tried to be hard, never tried to play the wall
MCs grab the mike tap the head and begin
Flowed for four minutes then passed to the end
But nowadays 'cause rap pays
You got a million rappers and a thousand DJs
… All wanna talk about how much they flip
Runnin off at the mouth so much ya tongue was kicks
But that's aight, I represent the real hip hop
Because rappers just rap but MCs get props
And we run styles no styles no run we
Bush Babees run things represent who you be
… It's like this y'all, It's like that y'all
I represent the hip hop, but not the rap y'all
It's like this y'all, It's like that y'all
I represent the hip hop, but not the rap y'all
It's like this y'all, It's like that y'all (we run things)
(Things run we) I represent the hip hop, but not the rap y'all
It's like this y'all, It's like that y'all
I represent the hip hop, yeah
… It's a every style, nah gonna live like people do
Make a new style from run you
How does the Ambush crew a-pass through?
I make we tell them what for do
Me say mercy, worse he bitter like circy
No have to bust a shot to make a next man hear me
Rush me, comin' from the music industry
Everybody wan fe be a bad man, them crazy
Easy an MC, a why do them, a why do them
… Them would-a use we, nah just to reach the top rung
But in the know we know we never sell out fe dem
They ask them the question and it's like them hear den
If reggae music and hip-hop upon friend
A message we're send
To tell the all uh them, united we with or divided
… It's like this y'all, It's like that y'all
We represent the hip hop, but not the rap y'all
It's like this y'all, It's like that y'all
We represent the hip hop, but not the rap y'all
It's like this y'all, It's like that y'all (we run things, things don't run we)
(We run things, things don't run we) we represent the hip hop, but not the rap y'all
It's like this y'all, (we run things, things don't run we) It's like that y'all
We represent the hip hop, yeah
… It's been a while since you heard somebody rhyme like this
The fortified mental grimy that you can't dismiss
At the top of the list because the masses insist
It's a must that I create to elevate from the abyss
The mind must be nourished so the truth can flourish
As the rubbish is discourage by the explosional floodage
… Of my verb as I infiltrate your state the least when the energy's released
You can tell its coming from the east
So cease with your ranting and your raving
And all the misbehaving that you claim with your name
In order to maintain that status on the mic apparatus
Everybody wants to try to sound the phattest or the baddest
… That's not the case when your standing face to face in the place to be
With the face to see from inner space, so
Face the facts and tell truth to the nation
Mr. Man and that's my representation
… It's like this y'all, It's like that y'all
We represent the hip hop, but not the rap y'all
It's like this y'all, It's like that y'all
We represent the hip hop, but not the rap y'all
It's like this y'all, It's like that y'all (we run things, things don't run we)
(We run things, things don't run we) we represent the hip hop, but not the rap y'all
It's like this y'all, It's like that y'all (we run things, things don't run we)
We represent the hip hop, yeah (so anything we do without fe do properly oh)
… We run things, things don't run we, we run things, things don't run we
We run things, things don't run we, so anything we do without fe do properly oh
We run things, things don't run we, we run things, things don't run we
We run things, things don't run we, so anything we do without fe do properly oh
man ANY way we can get a link???
Just replying to you 5 years later to remind you that you wanted this link. Just google a youtube to mp3 ripper and download, enjoy!
pfff malditazo
You can clearly tell this was made by Ali Shaheed from A Tribe Called Quest
Ali shaheed just make the cut and the scratch no ? Q-tip made the instrumentals
Sounds more like Q-Tip. I never knew Ali was a producer too.
@@alexmason6191 SAY WHATTTTTTTTT
Yup, Ali Shaheed got full credit for this
@@alexmason6191 You probably though it sounds like Q-Tip because you didn't recognize some tribe instrumentals as Ali's instead.
