[Erick Sermon] (Do my thing) [VERSE 1: Money B] To the beat, to the beat, to the beat y'all Old school chants the party people used to dance to I recall Summertime in Philly, my age about a dozen Got excited when invited to block parties with my cousins Tapin every rap jam that slammed on the radio School time came, on the plane back to the O Grandmaster Flash, Spoonie G and the Treach' Three Fearless Four, spirit of hip-hop was etched in me See, I was down, brah, but let me get down to The meat, ya see, V-Town I was down witcha Back at the high, '84, '85 Lunch time at the break, hip-hop kid live No jive, I see Boogie B and Commando Valentino D, we all had plans to (Shock the house) (until the break of dawn) I was down with the Funky Fresh 8 when I jumped on Stage, I got played when I entered the talent show I ripped (you ripped it, Mon') but I still didn't win it, though But now the people know me as Money B Not just a freckle-faced short lille wanna-be Breakdance, shell-toe-Adidas and leather-hat-wearin Now the girls was starin and the props was ffffat (boom!)
