They don’t like us
Word up
They don’t like us
They ain’t gotta like us f–k them son

Starang forever like Wu Tang my crew brings drama
Hangin’ your a-s upside down by ya shoe strings
Smoke, tell ’em how we doin’ this
Stop the whole s–t just to big up my newness

(Now, by all means)
I do a show in New Orleans
And get wit b’out it ’bout it Mystikal
(Starang, we been missin’ you)
Last year ATL we almost got physical

I can’t talk, now, read about it in the interview
(While y’all up in D&D)
I caught two and three stitches
I was still gettin’ b—hes in the tunnel takin’ pictures
In the mazda listenin’ to ‘Kris, I Got Next’
I wanted hot sex, so I ran and got the Lex

(Chorus)
Boom it and you boom it and you boom it in your jeep
Type of s–t that hit when you pump it in your trunk
Boom it and you boom it and you boom it in your jeep
Babum, babum, make the speakers pop

I’m as bad, bad as Leroy Brown, Brown
I’m a pro p-pro, but not a noun n-noun
If you got beef, beef, you get ground, ground
Cut up in soul, soul by the pound for pound
I’m going downtown like Julie Brown, I’m the brown mound
Not a rebound, but like a hound, I get down
Never wore a leash but I’m a show ya
How loose is my goose, got more soul than combat boots
(I got soul, you got it) That’s why I came
They keep calling me, man, they keep calling me, they call my name
And say, I can’t give it away, give it away now
Or say whiz, say what or say how
Sh, ok, between you and me, man it’s all this white rap
I got the power, hachoo, I’ll just bite snap
Bum ba-bum, bum bum
Think fast, cause I’m the Ramadan
Ahoy-he-hoy-he, I’m Fat Boy
Shibidabibidabee, boom boom, I’ll be the bad boy
Having a party, but I’m not a democrat
Spoiled as a child, but now I’m milk like Similac
Don’t have Cinemax because my cable’s pirated
Bug out with the rhyme, try to swat and I’ll get fly with it
For pest control, I suggest some soul
For a d–k I got it, but I have no breath control
So gimme a T-O, baby like um, Chris Webber
I got myself together
Now I’m straight, are you straight, if you straight, then I’m straight
Rock me tonight, just for old time’s sake

Intro:

Aiyyo yo yo yo you better pass it
Aiyyo check this out
We coming to you live from that BOMB Chocolate City my man
Where the knotty headed n—-z and the Brick City brigade dwell
And if you don’t know your fool better ask
Aiyyo yo you better pass that blunt
And yo E we comin to you live with the Cosmic type stuff

Verse One: Redman

Well it’s that brother coming six billion feet from beneath
And you should be peep-in how I get smoked-out on the weekend
I swing it to my crew or down to my fans
Schoolin hell of stackas like final exams
Cause, it’s the Funkadelic, hit you with the irrelevant
elements, and it’s coming through your block
Can’t you smell it trick?
Wanna copy-cat my whole format
So you get funk tracks, punch lines and skull hats
Hoooo! Got a little Redman in town
Who’s that effin clown soundin wack with the frown??
I don’t know man, but you better wonder what I would do
While loud on this staff like birds one and two
My crew runs thicka than syrup from the burrow
You get hurt up, word up, Jam-med like Pearl
Knock off from blood clot puff on the rough block
Or I peep my man, Rockafella, it don’t stop

Chorus:

On and on, and it don’t quit
Redman rockin on to the funky s–t, c’mon
On and on, and it don’t quit
Redman rockin on to the funky s–t
I said Jersey’s in the house Jersey’s in the house
I said Brooklyn’s in the house Brooklyn’s in the house
I said Uptown’s in the house Uptown’s in the house
I said the Bronx in the hidouse The Bronx in the hidouse

“Can’t Wait”
Redman from the 1994 album Dare Iz A Darkside.

I’m like “Ruhh!! Ruhh!!” like I have cerebral palsy
My flows bees wet like all you girls drawers be
crack the Phills, spread the buddah, then the hiddash,
roll it up and then ask, “Who chipped in for the 10 bag?”
Etcetera, I roll my blunts with two textures,
pick up 50 bags and then I smoke all the extras
It’s the truth, like funk 180-proof
Don’t drop your drawers, I’ll f–k through your daisy-dukes (true!)
Put your fingers up in the air if your high (high)
I walk by (by), so F a drive (by)
I swing up in it, ’bout as average as half as
good as Reggie Jackson’s, that’s why you talk backwards
and chumps be on some Bogard s–t like Humphrey
You couldn’t beat me if you ran with 21 Jumpstreet,
or 90210, f–k it yo;
In the movies, I’m the n—a puffin’ buddah in the back row

Chorus: Repeat 8X

(I can’t wait to get it on…)

[K-Solo]

cliffs grabbin their ass cheeks yellin GERONIMO
It ain’t a problem at all when K solve
Three-hundred and sixty degrees rhymes or boulevards

the Ram in Dodge, rasclaat and bumba claat
Maintain, few remain in the game
So I remain focused; hip hop’s the main aim
