Wonce Again Long Island

De La Soul

[Pos Plug Wonder Why]



(What the hell do you wanna be when you grow up?)



I wanna be a supa emcee



(Well you're already that) so let me step up to bat



Attack a hit to go beyond this age of rap counterfeits



Out of the heavens August one seven sixty nine



Born I wonder why with the thoughts to rhyme



Til there was no longer thoughts to dream



When an unpolished demo led to limos at the age of eighteen



Accompanied by the screams, Plug One



Shot up with fame like novacaine it made me numb



So numb I wouldn't been able to feel



Niggaz diggin in my pockets for my currency reels



But still, I make girls brown eyes blue at will (until)



my ass was no longer mass appeal



Oh shit, I guess that was all the fame I was alloted



Wait a minite, new video, like a leopard I'm spotted



in a night club chillin with Kamaal and Phife



I be that farmer cultivating owning acres of mics



And I likes to make it known Strong Island stylin



for a while, so do that dance



(Are you rockin the spot?) Yes I be



(Showin others they do not?) Yes I be



(Havin then towed from the lot?) Yes I be



That's my job as a supa emcee, I'm from Long Isle



Mobile, make it worth your while



If the jam needs motion I'm the one to dial



(Goin beyond ninety watts) Yes I be



(Well are you rockin it?) Yes, yes I be (rockin it!)



I can stress the makin of loot to feed the fam



While the voices impersonate the true who I am



Buzzin in my ear, oh you one of those wannabees



Always buzzin in my ear you down with supa emcees



Steppin to me with your pleas that you gots, butter rhymes



Man the only thing butter bout you is your spine



mad yellow, you can't rock the Mardi Gras, my mellow



Cause my stealth show more than knowledge of self
