Stay Real

Erick Sermon

I.




It's on breaker 1 2 mike checkin'



flexin no half steppin



when I release the funky weapon



like Ricochet ping ping ping.



I make fans fell it even when I sing.



The green eyed bandit coming funky with the tune yes



I'm blowing up like Tom Berringer in Platoon.



I'm playing kinda ruff like Zapp



whapp and E Double smack to all the crossover raps black



who ain't down with the format



when you should be wearing khakis and not dress slacks



that's wack



you trippin you better wake up and smell the coffee



and then back up off me



I serious I can't believe some people letting frontiers in



and then compare them equal boy you must be buggin



you lucky you don't catch a slug in the chest in



from the Smith and Wessons.



Change the out look



change the cover of the book



you hip hop crook and give back what you took.



It's the Funk coming at cha



so don't let the crossover catch ya.



Boy stay real.




II.




It's on again yeah about the fake hip hop trends



for those who can't comprehend just ask your friends



they know the real deal of rap music no frontin



you can't be talking loud and saying nothing



you must be true to the game you understand



and if not I could kill you man



for being false plus extra fake on the tape



talking hardcore when you soft like a piece of cake.



You can't put nothing pass me that horrendous cause



I've been here since strictly business



the era of Eric and Rakim, Biz, Public Enemy, Run-DMC,



Houdini, The Beasties, Stetsa, Fresh Prince and Jazzy Jeff, LL



when he was rockin bells.



Sucker which fake emcee is rearranging the structure band



the motherf--ker.
