Something kinda smooth, on the mellow tip
Seeking deeper and deeper, you just might slip
Into a trance, mind going slow
Didn`t wanna curse so they`ll pump it on the radio
Called up Banks on the GTE mobil
Well it`s about 9:00, yo Ant I`ll be over
Searching through some records from way back when
Found something smooth, and yo Ant give it a spin
Thought of something cool, rhymes definitely pumpin`
Bassline groove and kick drum thumpin`
Using my mind like a Webster encylcopedia
Pooh-Man is selling out and this is for the media
A little something, from the Mack to the Oaktown
To the papers who keep putting our names down
Short Short but Funky, Dangerous Dame
En Vouge and the Toni`s just to add some names
Can`t forget Pebbles, Sly and Larry Graham
And yours truly, MC Pooh-Man
Oaktown is on the rise, and I knew you`d ever see
We just funky as ahhhhh, we wanna be
First rhyme, just on the PG
Going through history and fools can`t get with me
Looking fake, perpetrating rappers every day
Misguided brothers without nothing to say
All kind of critic say we diss mentality
But don`t they know that Rated R is Reality?
My other homeboy said Kill At Will
That`s the way we live and we know it`s real
My boy from the east said Fear of a Black Planet
I know a certain race that couldn`t understand it
To see a black man clocking fat grands
To a grafted devil, it`s hard to understand
But I`m an artist, begging your pardon
Used to be small, but my pockets are enlarging
Straight from the streets, I use game as a weapon
You ask What is game? But fool keep stepping
But I`m a keep rolling, Ant Banks and me
And I`m a come, Funky as I Wanna Be
Rap`s going, I be flowing something different
Something mellow, cool with an accent
Kind of tender like Ant Banks` girlfriend
I changed the style, something they couldn`t comprehend
Ant said Pooh, let`s make it kind of serious
Not funny, just to make the money
Say I`m a pro and I can flow with the best of `em
Then say I be damn to the rest of `em
See you`re caught up in my rapture cause it`s been so long
Let me stop using the bitches` songs
Baby don`t like rap, but I like soul
She might listen to my lyrics and lose control
See I`m hard as hell and it could ever be
See I`m F-U-N-K-Y as I wanna be
