Lyrics
[Chorus] We got the bump-da-bump-da-bump bump We got the bump-da-bump-da-bump bump We got the bump-da-bump-da-bump bump We got the bump-da-bump-da-bump bump We got the bump-da-bump-da-bump bump We got the bump-da-bump-da-bump bump We got the bump-da-bump-da-bump bump-da-bump-da-bump, bump-da-bump-da-bump [Verse 1: Q-Tip] Yo, we preparin' ourselves for this ultimate war But MCs is really lost and it's at a big cost We be rhymin' at our show thinkin' we gettin' dough Movin' through every town off the fumes of **** And accolades from the crowd with our chests out proud Yo, we 'bout to clap these joints so that these **** sound loud Some kids be actin' stank like a baby pant It's the rapper Abstract who make the joint get amped Yo, move your body maker and use your minds to break true Yo, we gotta do the do Son, we livin' in a time where mad folks talk **** Representin' they crews or they East-West cliques Let me tell everybody from coast to coast About the lands we boast, but we don't own jack How the **** we movin' through makin' moves like that? How the **** we movin' through makin' moves like that? Can you explain that? I doubt that, very highly We got jewels and Mo' and the life is type rowdy Everybody lookin' **** like the tore down committee Let's make this institution, buy this land for the smitties I got girls with plenty tails, smarts and big **** And they all stressin' me, yo, really? What really goes on? (I-I-I-I-I don't know) [Chorus] We got the bump-da-bump-da-bump bump We got the bump-da-bump-da-bump bump, uh We got the bump-da-bump-da-bump bump We got that bump-da-bump-da-bump bump We got that bump-da-bump-da-bump bump We got that bump-da-bump-da-bump bump We got the bump-da-bump-da-bump. bump-da-bump-da-bump, bump-da-bump-da-bump bump [Verse 2: Q-Tip] One is for the beat and the two is for the rhyme Three is for the life, now we on this incline Never catch this kid stickin' forks in swine Never ran my gibs for nothin' less than a dime A few of my brothers did a **** for a time Strivin' to survive sometimes is known as crime The three twenty-five got that Windex shine And when I shot skellies, I had boxes in lines All I wanna do is live life and be fair I used to stress girls with long legs and long hair Now I want a woman with a spiritual flair God will never make it too hard for me to bare I'm hungry like a derelict who stays in deludes Some could count me out, but yo, I doubt that I'll lose The Westernized world got our minds confused You frontin' on me, akh, then your dome get bruised The funny style cats, they be playin' games like Chucky Government officials shoot their same old **** They the devil agents AKA the devil flunky Stiff-**** squares gettin' mad 'cause we funky This the crack game, then we got the top cause The positive jumps the negative like flaws We deadin' evil vibes, yo, that **** is at the morgue We celebrate laughin' down in at the smorgasbord You still lookin' **** like the tore down committee Let's make this institution, buy the lands for the smitties I got girls with tails, plenty smarts and big **** And they all stressin' me, really? [Chorus] We got the bump-da-bump-da-bump bump joint We got the bump-da-bump-da-bump bump joint (I don't know) We got the bump-da-bump-da-bump bump joint (I don't know) We got the bump-da-bump-da-bump bump joint We got the bump-da-bump-da-bump bump joint (I don't know) We got the bump-da-bump-da-bump bump joint (I don't know, I don't know) We got the bump-da-bump-da-bump bump joint We got the bump da-bump da-bump da-bump da-bump da-bump da-bump da-bump da-bump da-bump da-bump da-bump da-bump, bump, bump, joint
