[Intro] I'm, I'm on the Twitter come follow me On the sh** thinkin I'm the best MC This the sh** that get me on the MPC Tell you what I was doin back in ninety three [Verse One] Used to clean my Reebox pumps with my toothbrush Then cop a single or a ca**ette for just two bucks Got my turntables right before the whole Wu struck Used to cut cla** come home to learn my new cuts Didn't have a fade somethin more like a crew cut Nobody had haze even dirt would cost me too much Wasn't gettin paid so I stay with my boots scuffed But never got played 'cause my tape I ordered new stuff (I got that new sh**!) The set I cued up, had the Mac to boot up Gemini sampler so what the beats I looped up Nobody knew what, they thought I be a screw up Love the place I grew up then came back with my loot UH!!!! Went through the hood like a mechanic givin tune-ups My screw up in the woods have me pumpin kegs with blue cups Tryin to get ahead still I wind up stuck in two cuffs The cops said you got balls but we got the two nuts Wild cat in the back of the black school bus Bumpin Black Moon, my whole cla** thought that I knew Buck Just a new buck, a new rock, tryna get new bread Spend the last dollar on a rock is so bootleg (My Rubens!) Tryna get my hands on Kid Capri needles My first twelve send me chicks, the root of all evil (not money!) Hip-hop was in my jeans before I knew about a Diesel When a artist was a artist and knew how to use the easel (Paintin pictures) Now they scared of riskin, pull a quick Evel Knievel So I pull 'em a lethal version of POP goes the Weasel! 'Cause of they sick, oh boy, I'm straight measles Been doin this since Dave went Phil k**ed that Siegel Haaaah, and yeah that's a old school reference (old school) But sh** I gotta it back to the essence (Gotta bring it back) Before Slick Rick caught his first sentence We thought 2000 we'll be livin like the Jetsons Before Biggie even got with Supercat Dudes were on the dance floor fallin back like Scoob and Scrap When Bell Biv DeVoe went and sampled Kool G. Rap I was in the room with Brand Nu' givin Puba dap Stay where the music at, before I heard a Luda rap Befrore we call the music crack, we called it weed and buddha sack Was +Cool Like Dat+ before I could produce a track Ten years in the game and they like Scram Jones (...who is that?!!)
