I don´t get blind, I don´t drink wine I took A sledge hammer and I broke my nine Because my life is mine, word is bond I rhyme And every day I write the book down line by line I´m feeling good when I do it like this
So come on and turn it up because you can´t resist
Because I´m back with another track in which you lack Cause things is wack and that´s a fact Because I´m on time, you´re shouting rewind You know it´s Adrock that´s blowing your mind My shit is rough and you know it is so damn tough
I´m getting intense, not talking nonsense I made up my mind, not sitting on the fence I don´t always know the right from the wrong Do my best to figure it out and work it out in the long I try to do a lot, more than I can chew I balance out my ambitions what I got to do
Check it, better believe it y´all Check it, better believe it y´all This is rough and tough
Cause you hide in broad day light, a parasite A hypocrite, you take a peek quick You turn your nose up (what), you think you´re high up (uh) You play it real safe and now your shit´s fake I seen you hawking and then you clock my style And then you try to play it off like you think you´re wild
D.I.Y., that means do it yourself I don´t sit around waitin´ for someone´s help I don´t sit back and say "Good enough" I keep on striving, reinventing, keepin´ it off the cuff
So I kick the level up cuhootnified Mackadocius vibes, positively fortified
I´m throwing rhymes down, kickin´ them downtown Traveling high speed through the underground I kick it freestyle, make it worth your while I´ve got shelves of rhymes that I keep on file I´m feeling good now, back home again Well, New York City is the city that I feel at home in (woo) A blast from the Grasshoff, awhile it´s been Stepping into the future again (yeah)
Uh, and now I´m straight from 88 To 93 to 94, I´m out the door
Step into the party with the Fila fresh gear People looking at me like I was David Koresh here
Kicking rhymes from the heart cause that´s where I´m at Fuck the bullshit, be it far from me to pop that
In the search for truth, I go a lot of ways There´s not a lot of peace that I find these days I try to stay cool, I try to stay calm But my life is getting hectic like a smoke bomb So I´ll say it like the group Huggy Bear There´s a boy-girl revolution of which you should be aware
You can´t dis me, it ain´t worth it, B You put yourself down and you don´t even see Cause I don´t play that, I know who I am For a minute I did but now I´m back again I´m feeling strong, see, trust myself, G
Well, I stopped smoking cheeba and that was part of the key
We, we, we´ve got fire, we need water There ain´t no water, so I guess I ought to Leave you broke in a comatose state of mind And I´m blind and I´m working overtime, so check it I keep my rhymes in my little black book And I know you wanna take another look
