The Jungle Brothers - Book of Rhyme Pages lyrics

[newspaper, newspaper, newspaper] I welcomed everybody I invited to the crib. It was good to finally see them, So I asked them how they been [fine] They answered fine, but worried about the changing time I served them tea and then I kicked an herbal rhyme Disciples got me paranoid, I can't avoid The scriptures got me down as the paperboy [paper paper] So as I travel through stone sand and gravel, I pay no mind to babble, gossip and what have you. 'cause who would want to tamper with the book of rhmes pages? [pages] Whatever had been written shall be shown to all stages [stages] My destiny was fatal so I played it to the utmost, [utmost] The daily news came, but it wasn't the new york post. Hallelujah, a baby is born, her name is dijon Now that's a sign and symbol that it won't be long It was the Book of rhyme, book of rhyme, book of rhyme pages (x3} Some see the end, but then some see nothing The pages keep on turning and my dj keeps on cutting. My constant high on life combats stress and strife, But there always comes a time when you must sacrifice So my cells ripidy pop as the lovely lyrics drop I'm never going back; I'm over stocked with stock Cops and thiefs both practice same beliefs So I run and make my own So I don't need grief Now I'm shakin' the rhythm up I always drop chance Cause in cups chance on gettin' goin' down Chance on gettin' goin' up Fun and games need not be played Cause you make the wrong move and you will get slayed Confused by thevoices of your spiritual choices The jungle is a place that holds a many of forces. Good and evil Ragged and regal So read book of life and make sure that you see to Book of rhyme, book of rhyme, book of rhyme pages (x8) Emcees want to compete with my book of rhyme pages As a zulu, how shall we teach the lessons and the stages There's four developing stages in the art of hip hop And most of them developped from the snap crackle and pop The first was the usage of an actual band, The second was a drum machine made by a man, The third was the human beats box and percussion The fourth in line was samplin' and the the boof of rhyme bustin' Some say it is illegal, But according to my scriptures, These are the tools that I'm to use To help me paint my pictures, To brag and boast is just a higher level of description What only matters are the facts not the fictions 'cause anything is possible in the book of rhyme pages Good frame of mind is what you need to make a split decision The answer's in your face, so be sure to use your vision. [rewind rewind] Book of rhyme, book of rhyme, book of rhyme pages (x8)
