This aint a blast from the past, its a boomer from the future
Feel free to scream ho or yo if it suits you
While the bass is booming and your face is glooming
Saying the e double e is def, youre not assuming
Theyre only one of many that think a jealous fellow
Say yep then step cause Im cooler
[pmd]
Say hmmm now youre through, youre how not who
Before Im gluing that butt like krazy glue
I roll into the party as if I was five-o
Book investigation biters like columbo
Pushing rap for some info in exchange for a jumbo
And when I find a sucker its time to play rambo
Or play commando, you know?
I knew it was the sucker with the new jack-ified afro
We rock rhymes then we we run em a while
Sucker mcs catch on, then they bite our style
Theyre confused, dazed, and amused
Sweating and thing because their rhymes are used
Seen us in the crowd then they own their cost
They run around like a chicken with their heads cut off
Get off the bandwagon (repeat 2x)
[erick sermon]
While my volume was swaying, you were saying
Who was that brother? while the record was playing
I felt kinda happy like an ego trip
I had to laugh cause my energys tip
My tradition is dissing in this position
And right about now Im in perfect condition
And dont get mad, and dont stop hissing
Dont say nothing homeboy just listen
[pmd]
No talk or playing, sucker mcs I be slaying
Get off the bandwagon, you know what Im saying?
I devastate the hip-hop scene
Keep the feet moving like a dancing machine
E got my back (yeah) k la boss on the scratch
You wild on the groove with the beat on wax
Im in my own world, no room for distraction
Controlling mcs while la boss keeps scratching
Get off the bandwagon (repeat 2x)
