I am the original DJ Jazzy Jay from the Mighty Mighty Zulu Nation
First Iâll say my name is um, original scratch creater Grand Wizard Theodore
For those who donât know, I started back out in â74. Africa Bambata, Disco King Mario, Cool Herc, Grandmaster Flash and you know, some of the pioneers who did it back then you know
Hip - hop is universal man, it all depends upon on what you do
Hip - hop is like what you would call the bastard child of a lot of different forms of music
I just feel good that a lot of rock bands are like, are like recognizing you know, the culture
We used to play these beats because they used to drive us on the dance floor
And people donât really know that itâs a rock record until like the guitars come in and stuff like that
We didnât have no hip - hop beats back in the days, we had to take it from everywhere we could get it from
Just trying to take it to another level
Thatâs what keeps the music new and keeps it fresh
As far as you know rock is concerned man, I think rock is, you know, a big part of hip - hop man
Rock helped influence hip - hop, hip - hop helped influence the world.
Shh
Yeah
Hey
Shh
You hear me?
Ok
Listen
Yo
Itâs like a triple stage darkness
Listen and drift
Every muscle in your skin
Starts to shake and shift
You can hate the gift
But my phrases daze ya
Click, spray ya face
When I spit
I mean it
Ya just too conceited
Repeating and repeating
Your a thugâd out gangstaâ
PIMP stil ya believe it
Seems like thereâs too much Pac
We donât need it
Iâm cool on your heat
You can keep it
Itâs not a big secret
This is a game ya canât win
Ya singinâ the same thing
But were bringinâ the yin
So just close your eyes
And pretend again
That ya skin isnât as thin
As the skin ya in.
(Bitch)
Give me a second
Just to spell it out
So
Nobody can twist
What Iâm takinâ about
I donât
Have to fake anything I feel
Because
We both know
Every word is real
So
Give me a second
Just to spell it out
So
Nobody can twist
What Iâm takinâ about
I donât
Have to fake anything I feel
Because
We both know
Every word is real.
Right about now, the funk soul brother
Check it out now, the funk soul brother (Handsome boys!)
Right about now, the funk soul brother
Check it out now, the funk soul brother.
I got the skills of titanium, straight to the cranium
Try to play me and we can go to war like Iranians
A D-pack, I speak rap, as long as the beat phat
My chain be off the meat rack
Lord finesse, donât harass the guards with four bars and piss on like half your squad
So the savage, I donât gain raps
I donât harass the people playing russian roulette with automatics
See, on the street Iâm top the rank
Three words, when I get the dice, stop the bank
Bet against me, youâll get your cash
Leaving my street team, for nothing but ass whoopins
Hard hitters (Handsome Boys)
The type to sport the chicks on the arm like John Ritter
The bomb beat, being stabbinâ the third
Better play like Jehova witness, just spread the word, spread the word, spread the word.
The sky opens wide
Swallowing again
Once I am inside
Iâm lost and canât pretend
These pictures in my mind
Are not a part of me
These memories hold me tight
Stil I can hardly breathe
(Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe)
I can hardly breathe
(Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe)
I can hardly stop the memories.
Nothing I can say or do will
Take away what Iâve been through
What you were is what Iâve come to be
Nothing you can say to me
Will take away these memories
What you were is what Iâve come to be.
