people give your ears so i be sublime
it’s enjoyable to know you and your concubines
niggas take off your coats ladies act like gems
sit down indian style as we recite these hymns
see lyrically i’m mario andretti on the momo
ludicrously speedy or infectious with the slowmo
heard me in the eighties jb’s on the promo
in my neverending quest to get the paper on the caper
but now let me take it to the queens side
i’m taking it to brooklyn side
all the residential questers who invade the air
hold up a second son ’cause we almost there
you can be a black man and lose all your soul
you can be white and groove but don’t crap the roll
see my shit is universal if you got knowledge of dolo
or delf or self see there’s no one else
who can drop it on the angle acute at that
so do that do that do that that that come on
do that do that do that that that ok
do that do that do that that that
i’m bugging out but let me get back ’cause i’m wetting niggas
so run and tell the others ’cause we are the brothers
i learned how to build mics in my workshop class
so give me this award and let’s not make it the last

back in ’89 i simply slid into place
buddy buddy buddy all up in your face
a lot of kids was busting rhymes but they had no taste
some said quest was wack but now is that the case
i have a quest to have a mic in my hand
without that it’s like kryptonite and superman
so shaheed come in with the sugar cuts
phife dawg’s my name but on stage call me dynomutt
when was the last time you heard the phife sloppy
lyrics anonymous you’ll never hear me copy
top notch baby never coming less
sky’s the limit you gots to believe up in quest
sit back relax get up out the path
if not that here’s a dancefloor come move that ass
nonbelievers you can check the stats
i roll with shaheed and the brother abstract
niggas know the time when quest is in the jam
i never let a statue tell me how nice i am
coming with more hits than the braves and the yankees
living mad phat like an oversized mampi
the wackest crews try to diss it makes me laugh
when my track record’s longer than a dc0 aircraft
so next time that you think you want somethin’ here
make something def or take that garbage to st elsewhere
