trem one – for the record lyrics

[intro]
this is what you had to [?]
you gotta be able to deal with the dust and the grit
look at this, can you get your hands dirty?
that’s what it’s about, gettin’ your hands dirty
lookin’, diggin’ for things that are classic gems
45s, all that (“[?]”)
(“most beats that we officiated, you wouldn’t survive”)

[verse 1]
i’ve got a cross to bear with these flogs that dare call themselves producers
and only seem to dig through the use of computers
i hunted hard, for every hat, snare, and bass
not on the net but in wax+filled racks and crates
extractin’ breaks and loops from rare parts
not just filled in with some played out sh+t, we [?]
we grandmasters, you just a flash in the pan
that black plastic you put out linеs the trash in my can
i’ll take an adamant stand, man, my team got this sh+t sеwn
your beats are softer than them polyphonic ringtones
i’ll bring home that raw truth
whether it’s a h+rn loop playin’, a sawtooth, or hubert laws’ flute
we keep it [?], check the production
got that s+1 crunchin’ midi function punchin’ ’em drums
and when you was f+ckin’ with that casio keyboard
i searched the seaboard for records to record
you gotta get your fingers dusty, trust me
from the known spots that’s blown to them [?] musty
bas+m+nts and op+shops, fair stalls and back lots
switchin’ the price tags at rare hauls and rack spots
[chorus: dj revolution]
“i’m in the record stores” “hands in the crate”
“diggin’ for the treasure” “buyin’ records by the pack”
“classic sample loops, we not clearin’ it”
“stick to the roots” “there’s no comparin’ it”
“i’m in the lab” “diggin’ for the treasure”
“makin’ sure production’s tight” “i’m hands on with it”
“blow the dust off the” “lp”
“sample loops” “stick to the roots”

[verse 2]
and plus i got an axe to grind with this mass decline of chorus cuts
the artist scratch was a part of tracks that brought us up
you know, the beat where the mac in the back tore it up?
jazzy jeff live, union square, that sh+t was raw as f+ck
transform a cut to [?] stash of 12s
of a cappella phrases made for [?]
[?] scratch, flash, and theodore
i see it more than just some needle work between the pores
constructin’ somethin’ to complement the track topic
identifyin’ the wax [?] scratched off it
but now there’s suckers singin’ hooks, we’re here to buck the trend
you ain’t the biz markie, and that ain’t just a friend
so hush and send for a 12+10 manipulator (shh)
to integrate some instant flavour with a pinch of fader
spin the plate and disintegrate the stylus tip
rev, show ’em how we bridge the gap between the rhymin’ biz
[chorus: dj revolution]
“i’m in the record stores” “hands in the crate”
“diggin’ for the treasure” “buyin’ records by the pack”
“classic sample loops, we not clearin’ it”
“stick to the roots” “there’s no comparin’ it”
“i’m in the lab” “diggin’ for the treasure”
“makin’ sure production’s tight” “i’m hands on with it”
“blow the dust off the” “lp”
“sample loops” “stick to the roots”

[outro: dj revolution]
“hands in the crate”
“hands in the crate”
“hands”
“hands in the crate”
“hands in the crate”
“in the crate”
“crate”
“crate”
“hands in the crate”
“crate”
“crate”
“crate”
