See, when y'all heard that
All I'm doin' is laughin' at all y'all niggas
That's been frontin' on my mans and them, man
These niggas started this shit, man
When it come to the show that I rock and the flow that I drop
Y'all know Run kills the mic
Can't forget about the O's that I got and the rolls in the spot
Y'all know I done skilled it right
How you gonna take a old song, been around so long
So So Def done made it hot
Done went from a DJ to a MC to the R-E-V like overnight
Everybody lookin', players gettin' shook when
Rev Run walk up in the spot
Even all the crooks that been livin' out in Brooklyn
Just can't help but point a lot
Everywhere I go now people say "Oh, wow"
'Cause they know how I get
It don't matter if it's Motown all the way to your town
You can't slow down my hits
Can't slow it down, man
Think about this
From 1983 to 2000
It's 2001 and these niggas still on the run?
Y'all niggas is crazy
Y'all out here tryin' to front
Like they ain't the reason niggas went and bought a pair of shell toes
What the fuck is wrong with y'all?
People wanna hurt Rev Run
Say 'cause I got dough that I must be a type of fraud
But you know the thing that's funny
If God made money, then how rich is the Lord?
Went and got JD, made me crazy, play me up in the club
Got a brand new Mercedes for my lady, but see me, I'm on dub
In a Bentley and all that come out the garage
On the side of a grand prestigious home
Y'all ask if I'm blessed by God, player, what you thought?
What Rev you seen on chrome?
Gotta make these dollars, comin' out of hollers
Got my collar on too
I got the rhyme and the beat and the vibe from the street
And now the rest is on you
The rest is on me, man
Let me let y'all know somethin'
The first rap group to get on MTV
Hard and heavy, ya heard me?
And then they gon' turn around
And resurrect Aerosmith life, you know what I mean
Bring them back, know what I'm sayin'?
If it wasn't for these cats, man
Y'all wouldn't know nothin' about no LL Cool J
Or Beastie Boys, you know what I mean?
And this comin' from me, I'm lookin' at it, man
Since I been 13 years old, man, I been watchin' these cats, man
I ain't no old nigga, but I know niggas, ya heard me?
You know what I'm sayin'? So stop all that frontin', man
Stop all your frontin', ya heard me? Yeah
Forget the hits that I made or the gig that I played
If you had love back in the day
Just laced up my kicks and I changed what I spit
And returned as the Run y'all love today
I picked the mic back up, came right back up
To the top where I'm 'posed to be
And when the track light up, y'all can back right up
Y'all players too close to me
You know what I used to like?
The way my man used to come on stage and grab the mic
And just throw the damn stand across the stage, man
And then he used to tell his man, like, "Yo, D
Come right here in the middle of the stage
Grab your gat and say what you gotta say"
And you know what the D used to say?
He used to say, "Party people
Your dreams have now been fulfilled
Get out your seats and let's get ill
That's right, y'all, we not just rough
We more than tough
And when it comes to shit like this
Ha, we got enough," you know what I mean?
You know who the fuck I am
You know my name, you know my game
It's So So Def, Run-DMC
