DJ Jazzy Jeff, Cy Young - Da Rebirth lyrics
[DJ Jazzy Jeff, Cy Young - Da Rebirth lyrics]
A one two, a one two a one two, a one two
I'd like to introduce myself
Many people think this style is terrific
It is kinda different, but lets be specific
Let's pay respects, dig it
Peace to KRS-ONE & Scott La Rock for
The way that they did it
Peace to NY, not forgettin'
Rakim and Kane the list is
Too long to mention, all of yall
But since we here
Put your hands up and enjoy yourselves
Cuz we just feelin it on the mic
And I'mma live hiphop for the rest of my life
And I'mma represent for the rest of my life
This is the life back when limit's was ice
And niggas would bust
Bust with the lyrics on mics
And you could start a house party
Just by killin the lights
DJ's was the life of the party
Back when everybody's favorite song was
La di da di
That was love, perfect climax in the club
Then they pump LL cuz they needed the love
Pumas and Nikes, fat laces and shell toes
MC Lyte's voice alone used to steal the show
Everybody used to build and flow
We took turns with the beat box
And watched the cypher grow
Words was dope and fly clothes was fresh
Plus everybody paid respect to Jazzy Jeff
That was dope nOT ectasy
NOT coke nOT killin' young kids for coats
NOT teachin' young girls how
To sell their souls
NOT runnin' in homes or car jackers
NOT leavin' your own
I wanna go back to flows
Back to beats, breakers and shows
Back to sweats and
Start re-buildin', let me know if you feel it
And I know all yall gon' feel it
And I know it hurts
But I swear you got to hear it
It's been a long time so you probably fear it
Any misconceptions killed it
Anytime my mics turned on and
I'm anywhere near it ohhhh
Yes yes yall, you don't stop
Right about now we got DJ Jazzy
Jeff on the wheels of steeeel
I'd like to introduce myself
Many people think this style is terrific
It is kinda different, but lets be specific
Let's pay respects, dig it
Peace to KRS-ONE & Scott La Rock for
The way that they did it
Peace to NY, not forgettin'

Too long to mention, all of yall

And I'mma live hiphop for the rest of my life
And I'mma represent for the rest of my life
