Dilla!
[Verse 1]
Rest in peace Sean Price, Prodigy, GURU, and Ol' Dirty
I show peace and love to my peeps who flows birthed me
Microphone Fiend, Rakim on the stereo
Study the rhyme scheme, my flight goin' aerial
Like Chubb Rock, I Treat Em Right from the pin-point
Like Snoop or B-Real, I never keep a thin joint
Getting lifted playing Preemo classics
Grabbed the mic and learned to rip the beats boom-bastic
I walked with Gang Starr, and Wu Tang type of talk
Even saw myself through the future road I may embark
And lighters up for the great J Dilla
My heroes that passed on, but I still feel they spirit
Ever so blessed with a curious mind
Cause I’m known to bring the Message like Furious Five
Pushin' my button, I go stupid, man, a sight to see
You done with, 'cause I’m a Superman like Diamond D
[Chorus]
The sound of music
1 time, yo
2 time, yo
3 time, yo
4 time, yo
1
[Verse 2]
And ain’t no tellin’ where my mind today
They Walked on By and it made a brother feel like he was Isaac Hayes
I bust them into them funky dope moves like Prince
Wait until they see the big man groove, then they convinced
I’m wild and mean when I sing my words with my power
When I was Al Green, them grits burned in the shower
I got it any kinda way, smokin’ a Backwood
Bumpin’ Billie Holiday, and then I burn the stage, pace out
Run it back when it’s felt from the main vowel
Jump back, kiss myself, like I’m James Brown
[Chorus]
The sound of music
1 time, yo
2 time, yo
3 time, yo
4 time, yo
