funky dl - taking rap back lyrics

intro
this is for the streets, uh, yeah

chorus
i’m, i’m, i’m taking rap back where it came from
t-take-taking rap back (huh)
yo i’m, i’m taking rap back where it came from
know my name son cos it’s simple and plain son

verse 1
yo you was wrong if you listened when they said i was done
homie as far as i’m concerned this here is day one
taking hip-hop back to where it came from
basic ingredients like cheese and bun
so brush up your st–z when you see me come
cos i’m bout to make these sucker mc’s go run
i rep three o’clock that’s east london
but still respect six, nine and midnight son
at eight i’m another at 7 a cool brother
when i spit words ricochet dun so take cover
i’m lethal just like mel gib and dan glover
i know money talks i heard it from chris tucker
i’m so super fly they call me jimmy snucka
so keep out my way i’m bruce with nunchukas
like rampage and busta rhymes i bring that ruckus
and only ever have five words for snake brothers
“forget it and dead it” yep i just said it
a legend in the game for that i take credit
haters want me to fall back but i won’t let it
and that ain’t no secret son so go spread it
cos real hip-hop’s in the house right now
so if you can’t take the heat go find your nightgown
and take a lie down this is all i’ve known
my name is dl and yes i got that rap game sown

chorus
i got the rap game sown; i got the rap game sown
now i’m all grown got the rap game sown
the rap game sown, got the rap game sown
yep i’m all grown, got the rap game sown
i’m, i’m, i’m taking rap back where it came from
t-take-taking rap back (huh)
yo i’m, i’m taking rap back where it came from
know my name son cos it’s simple and plain son

verse 2
i know you probably thinking that’s a simple swag
one of the best to ever do it that’s a simple brag
i make beats sound bad when i’m up in the lab
and the drums so mad when its under a stab that go
“raaaaah raaaaah raaaaaah raaaaah”
and i’m something like a phenomenon
some are lucky that i even got time for them
let alone for me to sit and pen a rhyme for them
big up the mixtape dj’s, blend tape c-ssettes
all the best for your release i wish you every success
see some dudes say on the mic i’m a menace
while the b-ss booms on my yamaha ns
ten to twelve bars left in this verse
it’s hardcore but notice that i ain’t even cursed
and there’s one word that goes everywhere that i be
and that’s c. l. a. double s. i. c
from my very first alb-m to this here moment
every d-mn opponent has literally blown it
they picked the microphone up but hardly couldn’t hold it
i raised the poker stakes they eventually folded
i’m like jill scott live my life like it’s golden
young blood’s who wanna sound ill ask me to show them
how rap was way back in the olden
while them name droppers really front like i know them

chorus

outro
yo i wanna say rest in peace… to big l, dj swing
jam master j, kidco, biggie smalls, j dilla, big pun
2pac and o.d.b. and eazy-e…
yo now bring that beat back!
