    i was born in the boogie down catscan
    where my building fell down on the rats and
    people sold the super on a trip to the penile penile
    while i settle off the shores of the long isle
    my file is clean i mean my mind is clear when i transmit
    i am the manner of the family cuz the pants fit
    i want to let forensics prove that i can mends groove
    wit the thread from needle outta hay i wanna say
    salutations to the nation of the nubians
    we bout to place you in that feet of stew again
    i got the frequency to shatter mrs jones’ perm
    i gotta hey love all the honies cause they’re short term
    tallyin the score i’m for the shottie in the jacket
    for the brother he’s a nigga when he packs it
    so get your butt out the sling i stung muhammad float a note
    that means i’m def so like the autographs you sign until the

    ayo groove with the mayor hazard on the sayer
    wave the eighteen mill’ eat a still
    sack or bag of troubles make the single double
    loop the coin and join the minimum wage
    i had a plan if i was the man i’d throw the j
    lay it low and late night i get sessed
    uncondition my ways of the everyday sunset
    wagin my days to the one bet
    cause your breaks’ll have the carrot of cakes whether mine
    out of line i breeze into the early mornin’
    freak the wic call and get a tap on my shoulder
    cause the days of the breaks be just about over
    the arts of the six won’t play my bag of tricks
    i got the sevens in my pocket somewhere
    reasons for the cheer all temperature here
    i keep it to the rear and then i’m exploding

    posdnuos
    i be the fab i be the fabulous but see unlike the chi
    i got the flea up in the name ah one two ah one two
    can’t no one bend my cousin from the peter piper like the others
    latchin on to when i caught the fame ah one two ah one two
    pass the task to ask me bout the native tongue again my friend
    i tell you jungle brothers on the run ah one two ah one two
    i’m shakin hands with many devils in the industry
    believe the genesis like phil with stills mean that i’m def
    so like the autographs you sign until the

    we in the mornin’ at the end but in the end i be the is
    cause in the mix man it’s alright
    momma got the rhythm to my daylife
    my pops gots enough so best to leave or sail the waves
    to the long i laid the anchor in the ‘ville
    and how i relate i stay inside of my gates
    paper days mess up my mind ground zero degrees
    and the weather feels fine
    you opened my eyes man thought i had a man
    but how could i eyescan i wasn’t around
    i seen the states and played the dates in the farfar
    gathered the new from the zoas around
    grew up with mikey rodes and played the codes
    sometimes i don’t budge without my cous’ fuzz
    a simple how ya do ah check it from my friends and my crew
    makes it definitely special

    5 posdnuos
    now there’s no shiny happy people in the crew we play the rough
    i got the huff and puff to blow the house low
    you know the neverending factor while i’m over tell a squid
    i know an enterprising brother so report to the
    i bounce a ball with my left a squid with my right
    cause a squid is just a punk yo he deserved to lose the fight
    i might meander ‘cross your dream travellin’ up the stream
    plug wonder wonder why you’re lonely tonight
    we see the girls scream as if we’re shocked by the live shell
    let’s round em up and get ’em back to the hotel
    motel holiday innfact
    i’m gonna let you know once again that de la soul
    is sure to show you we will hit the charter harder
    than the normal rappin’ fool
    ah one two ah one two
