Spoken World — текст песни (Bomfunk MC`s)

da poetry, by now you should know it`s me, the brother of word
giving thanks and praises to so many names and faces
in different places
from `84 to `99, it`s been a very long time
since the movement called hip hop arrived to this cold country of mine
seen the old, the new, and now the true skool
and for once I can say, something has changed
or is it just me? in the place to be
hardcore!
am I about to take it in my face?
question... where were you at the time of tha fat shoelaces
when the hell was really raised
huh, I know every face.. writers, breakers, dj`s, emcees, flygirls
representing, respecting unwritten laws
rules, star wars..
by even though, there`s one thing I know, and it`s been said before
eliminate the distance,
It`s not where you`re from, it`s where you`re at ..mentally..
da poetry.
nuff love, peace and respect. come correct
you gotta pay your dues, if you got something to prove
it is a competition, `coz the business side can`t see the mission
a.k.a the b-boy vision(/wisdom)
2000 and still counting...

(after the phone rings:)

Yo, it`s S U C K S
and I gotta run but come for the bomfunk crew
so you`d better listen if you don`t wanna be missing
the perfect combination on the mission to rock the dancefloor
to hit you right where it hurts
I`ll leave you begging for more
like roger, but this is not a story of a rabbit
gismo and b.o.w just got a habit
of speeding up your heartbeat
holding you no doubt yo bomfunk mc`s do it to the crowd
what up looking good catch me cooking food
