Lyrics

7-26-96

I'd like to introduce myself

It's Slow Boogie, gotta get you goin'
Get you movin' slow, southern talkin'
Rappin' ass nigga walkin' in my own shoes
I pay dues like easy sunday mornin'
Back to sunday, we hope to get it goin' one day
MC's is gettin' lost in the shuffle
That's why we gotta take you on a double
It seems we lost the focus and direction and the worst
They ain't connected, what's the problem?
Them dollars got you nervous when I do my thing
Utilities to pay and rent on these facilities
It happens everyday, nine times outta ten
In the bind or behind gotta lay it on the line
'Cause the world keeps spinnin'
And more brothers dock than create 'n criticize
'Cause they really can't relate to a real ass nigga
Kickin' live ass rhyme
'Bout the same style you livin' but these are the times 'cause...

I'd like to introduce myself

766, it was written in the land of players
Gangsters, gats and pimps
Two niggas on a mystic voyage
The evolution of a quote that we growed up with
From white lines to super speed, multi platin
Effectuation with the THC and [?] is how I see in our [?]
20 ounce of Arizona, youse a goner
When I get my pen and paper, start to driftin'
I gotta cut for your crates, beats and rhymes
If it never fails it never fails everytime
As in, chaotic
Checkin' through the lifestyles of the poor unanimous niggas
With the vision, paralyze MC's in all direction
Easy checkin' like scan tron
Hands on from Example on a [?] sample
Loops better than [?]
Houston torros, move the man with the soul
Slow Boogie is the man rippin' mics with flow
And Cipher be the man with the beat controls
See got 76 'n shit 'n rip plenty microphones
It's on, so can I get a rim shot?

I'd like to introduce myself
