DANGERDOOM, Talib Kweli - Old School Rules lyrics
[DANGERDOOM, Talib Kweli - Old School Rules lyrics]
Lord, I can't take it no' mo'
One two three, in the place to be!
MF DOOM, Talib Kweli, ah here we go
On born days, i used to blow out the
Candles and every Saturday
Watch cartoons 'til noon and then
I'd switch to Ralph McDaniels
I was, makin up a miracle flow
Over a cereal bowl
And a pause beat from my stereo
Rhymes stronger than Popeye with
The spinach out
I'm gangster like the frog on
Courageous Cat and Minute Mouse
Maybe I'm trippin and it's just
A cartoon to you
But I got chills when I heard
How DOOM flipped the Scooby Doo
And I might be buggin but it seem to me
That cartoons be realer than reality TV
They inspire my decision to
Be open and listen
But folks got it all twisted
Like a yoga position
Like in order to spit it dope
You gotta have a criminal past
That's similar to the cast
Of Different Strokes
Me and my people break bread, sit and smoke
The conversation rich but that depend
On what you consider broke
I draw on anything for inspiration
A fond memory, a piece of paper
Walls in a train station
It's just that I'm old school like that
Roll that rap over soul loops like that
It's just that I'm old school like that
Roll that rap over soul loops like that
(I'm old school y'all
Keep it goin y'all) It's just that
I'm old school like that
(I keep it goin y'all, here we go
We'll see) Roll that rap over
Soul loops like that (I'm old school y'all
Keep it goin y'all) It's just that
I'm old school like that
(Keep it goin y'all, ah here we go
C'mon) Roll that rap over
Soul loops like that yeah!
And we'll be right back after these messages
Fellas grab your nutsacks
Chicks squeeze your breastesses
We ain't all that grown
It's still funny like
Goin to the store on your
Own with rainbow money
Since then had an insane flow sonny
Walkin to the corner rhymin in the rain
Nose runny breakdancin maybe ten, bummy
Is when Subroc would run
Up handspring Arabian somee!
Ooh wee, like a Hong Kong Phooey kick
Or a weekend afternoon, karate movie flick
Slept good, no justice, no peace
Woody kept it hoody
Never discussed it with police
Shot the fair one nobody ran to get the gat
Or felt they had to put it up
In they raps to set it fat
And since when lyrical skills had to
Do with killin a cat?
What type of chitlins is that?
The Super Villain has the bad hydrotonic
Whoever willin to ride, provide raw chronic
It's just that I'm old school like that
Roll that rap over soul loops like that
It's just that I'm old school like that
Roll that rap over soul loops like that
(I'm old school y'all
Keep it goin y'all) It's just that
I'm old school like that
(I keep it goin y'all, here we go
We'll see) Roll that rap over
Soul loops like that (I'm old school y'all
Keep it goin y'all) It's just that
I'm old school like that
(Keep it goin y'all, ah here we go
C'mon) Roll that rap over
Soul loops like that yeah!
One two three, in the place to be!
