Act Like You Know

Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth

Here comes the hurricane C.L. same name



Cut by the grain when I land upon the plain



Jah knew the Hebrew a Papa Duke need you



But none of the fam who saw had a clue



Escalate the prime rate words coagulate



Generate the mind's state never can deflate



Nigger you jigaboo it doesn't have to be you



Funny like a cartoon Pepe Le Pew



Pimp are the lyrical g string the individual



But the metaphysical isn't spriritual



Straight from the heart I frame the art



Tune up my class, real fast, very smart



Dictate the technique, wait a minute, I speak



Loved by my son and a kiss on the cheek



Stutter-step the concept, blueprint, or pro



Steady as we go so act like you know




I stand by the rabbi, sail in Shanghai



Always had an alibi even if I lie



Crucial, never neutral, bare the fruitful



Past time, another rhyme, skedaddle, Yankee Doodle



Light skin in lovely gyp, just for the honey dip



Here to make a megahit fit



Don't install the pipe dream, renaissance regime



When you run ragged I pick up the steam



Chart on the record book, what Corey Love took the hook



Here's a new book to civilize a crook



Purest of the pedigree, feed 'em a line



C.L., no Jezebel, can never sleep well



Thick like a dred, at the Club Med



The Mecca Don said, a fish out of water is dead



Pete Rock, the soul brother, cruise on a flow



Swing low and yell "Geronimo!", act like you know




C.L. can play like Nike, come on just do it



Pacify the Gemini, soul into it



Beat to my feet is a lock like concrete



Hard for the street, decipher never incomplete



A clean editorial, rather historical



Affordable, recordable, nifty like a portable



Mecca is the syndrome, whe
