The Roots - Rock You lyrics

Rock you, rock you rock you, rock you
Rock you, rock you come on, come on

Aiyyo y'all rappers less played
What I'm about to say
Will probably hit y'all niggas in
A real strange way shmucks, ducks and half
Hearted prankster crews
Willie dank Langston Hughes
Put shanks in crews
I debut to make the news and
I've been killing it since
Still in the trench
Buzzin off the chillest suspense
I want my niggas out that
Barbwire still in the fence
Verbal assassin I'm a killer still in a sense
Rhymes is graphic
Aimin straight at your minds and
Blast that weak shit
The pieces and particles of fragments
Mad vocabulist, yes I must confess
I'm like Diddy tryin to sink
A slug in Elliots chest
Just taste on that it's Black you
Can tell he a vet
You never knew that fate cut you
Until your belly was wet
New Delian cat the Fraggle
Rock skully is split
It's Black coming, you can tell it's a hit
Comin to drop you nigga

We will rock you, we will rock you
We will rock you, we will rock you
We will rock you, we will rock you

Yo yall savages is primitive
I'm true penmanship
Here come the neuro-linguistic rap hypnotist
Making sound waves
Prisoners outta the listeners
Legendary magnificent dope distributors
Man, I remain miles ahead of the game
Slang play off the meter cause
It's never the same
Niggas tell me how they never
Comin better than plain
They love what I say
Here come the rebel breaking the frame
And the charts too
My earning bars arts is martial
I'm comin to off you, I ain't tryin to argue
When you least expect it I'm
Gonna step out the darkroom
Pull out the hardware tools the
Particles will spark you
My niggas wraps give a slice, I spit nice
Fucking around this twice as much as
Rhythm is rolling a dice
To choose one the noose or the gun
Cause you're getting banged or hanged
Thought second to none nigga

We will rock you, we will rock you
We will rock you, we will rock you
We will rock you, we will rock you

Yo check it out whether you
Ballin or just on the
Wall and groovin groovin
We've come to get it kickin
And get the movement movin
For Tracey and Tamika and
For Shelly and Susan
Styles make you wonder what the
Hell he was usin
Remember your development with melanin music
Spit so many spears it's becoming
A nuisance to some
But to whoever want to know who the truth is
You never heard another on
The mic as ruthless
I drink a little liquor a
Lot of water and juices
It make money ain't no need for makin excuses
Burn you fuckin with a South Philly exclusive
Them long dick niggas with real
Short fuses that go off
Chick likes Riq, you such a show off
You cut your locks down to a
Fro then cut your fro off
I been at your show there ain't no
Way to cut your flow off
You got to be the illest emcee
That people know of word

I will rock you i will rock you

We will rock you, we will rock you
We will rock you, we will rock you
We will rock you, we will rock you
