DJ Premier - Time lyrics

Part 1 - New York City: Nov. 13, 1992 [Intro: Royce Da 5'9"] Ayo, get Frank the Butcher on the phone. Tell him it's in style to be a lyricist again. Tell him I'm fresh as f**. Get FILA on the phone. Tell 'em I'm fresh as f**. Let's collab [Verse 1: Royce Da 5'9"] All these Larry Hoover comparisons They all foolish, they untrue and they too common Me?

Wait, I'll elaborate I'm the reason why their release date is backed [Outro] Wait, wait, whoa, please grab my keys, my n***a
