[Pete Rock, C.L. Smooth - Da Two lyrics]
Street when it was sweet
See this, move on and grow to another plateau
With me and havin that dough
In the last days when critical times, Ileft
To deal with my grand daddy's endeavors
When correcting my errors the first
Shot came in 91 eP done my struggle
To label this untouchable foundation
Due in 92, top ten review
Respect new when that flew
They Reminisce Over You
Skirt chasin what they rate me
In this whole rap affair
But when it really comes down to it who cares
Like the tortoise and the hare ya
Know the race I run
But ya losin all the nights
Ya let the rabbit get the gun
Number one wit a bullet and my pit name
Black it's the best who ever did it
On a Pete Rock track
Ayo two cool cats who reclaim the name
Pete Rock and CL smooth in this here rap game
But the good news is that there is a crew
Not 5 not 4 not 3 (Just two)
In the beginning
Let it be like the record spinning
As a child I stack 45's in
A pile blow the dust off
Put it on before I can walk
Play static on my pop dukes automatic
I knew I wasn't average
Music in my bloodstream
My pops watch his son live his dream
Now as time flew
The original classy rock crew
Shine through on streets and avenues
The next chapter you read it MC Shan said it
Gotta give the man behind wheels credit
Yes yes y'all, BLS and Marley Marl
The Rap Attack put my talents on the map
Now it's Pete Rock for days in Tha Basement
As I amaze watch me blow in 98 ways
I specialize in rap, DJ and produce
With more hot tracks then Carlos DeJesus
What it look like
Ain't nothin changed but the weather
Still riding with CD's and leather
Roll fives and better
For all that's folded in ya pocket
How long it take
To re-up and clock it, drop and make a profit
And lay my position with you that
We know what to do
And not to do, stop this fighting each other
God knowledge ya wiz, that you
Know who the enemy is, furthermore
Don't hide it divide it then X ya squares
To keep them other cats
Folded like beach chairs
Got an eye on that street aristocrat
Let CL show ya where the strengths at
Turn it up right here or just call the cop
Cuz we on it like this to the last stop
The next Humphrey Bogart, mastering art
Like a jeweler wit a diamond cutter
Taking em apart
Don't start what ya can't finish
When ya bubble wit skills that never diminish
Ya best team against mine
Is a light scrimmage
So play like Popeye and eat spinach
