I kick it root down, I put my root down
I kick it root down, I put my root down
So how we gonna’ kick it?
Gonna’ kick it root down
Yeah, how you wanna’ kick it?
Gonna’ kick it root down
So how you gonna’ kick it?
Gonna’ kick it root down
Gonna’ break it on down,
gonna’ kick it root down
It's not a put down
I put my foot down
And then I make some
love, I put my root down
I’m like sweetie pie
by the stone alliance
Everbody knows I'm known
for dropping science
‘Cause I'm electric like d k Hyman
I guess you'd e pect to
catch the crew rhymin'
Never let you down with the stereo sound
So, Mike, get on the mic and turn it out
We're talking root down, I
put my boot down (boot down)
And if you want to battle me, you're
putting loot down (loot down)
I said it’s root down, it's
time to scoot down (scoot down)
I'm a step up to the mic in
my goose down (goose down)
Come up representing from the upper west
Money Making
putting me to the test
Sometimes I feel as
though I've been blessed
Because I'm doing what I want so I
never rest
Well, I'm not coming out goofy
like the fruit of the loom guys
Just strutting like The Meters
with the “Look ka Py Py"
Cause downtown Brooklyn
is where I was born
But when the snow is fallin’,
then I am gone (oh weee)
You might think that I'm a fanatic
A phone call from Utah
and I'm throwing a panic
So break it to the root
when we kick it on down
Jimmy Smith is my man, I
want to give him a pound
I kick it root down, I put my root down
I kick it root down, I put my root down
So how you wanna kick it?
Gonna kick it root down
Cause how we gonna kick it?
Gonna kick it root down
So how we gonna kick it?
Gonna kick it root down
Gonna break it on down, gonna
kick it root down
Well, Adrock (huh)
Don't stop, come on
Just get on the mic with
the tic and the toc
I'll fill you to the
f kin' rim like brim
I'm walking down your block
and you say that's him
There goes the guy with the funky sound
The Beatsie Boys, you
know we come to get down
Because I've got the flow
where I grab my d k And say
“Oh my god,that's the funky shit!“
So I’m a pass the mic
and cause a panic (yeah)
The original nasal kid is doing damage
Every morning I took the
train to High Street Station
Doing homework on the train,
what a f ked up situation
On the way back up, hearing battle tapes
Through the underground,
underneath the sky scrapes
Like Harlem World Battles
on the Zulu Beat Show
It's Kool Moe Dee vs. Busy Bee
There's one you should know, (yeah)
Enough of that, I just want
to give some respect due
MCA, grab the mic and ma
bell will connect you
Bob Marley was a prophet
for the freedom fight
"If dancin' prays to the lord
then I will feel alright"
It feels good to play
a little music (music)
Tears running down my face ‘cause
I love to do it (love to do it)
And no one can stop this
flow from flowing on
A flow master of disaster with
a sound that's gone (yeah)
I'll give a little shout out
to my dad and mom (yeah)
For bringing me into
this world and so on
I kick it root down, I put my root down
I kick it root down, I put my root down
So how we gonna kick it?
Gonna kick it root down
Yeah, how you wanna kick it?
Gonna kick it root down
So how we gonna rock it?
Gonna rock it root down
Break it on down, gonna
kick it root down
Yeah, that shit's on down
And that's a record, that's
a record cause of Mario
And that's a record, that's
a record cause of Mario
And that's a record,
that's a record to Mario
Awww, now that's a record, buddy
