This is the Place to Be — текст песни (Spoonie Gee)

(It`s showtime!)

Once they announce my name and I get out on stage
I`m just like an animal let out of his cage
I can`t control myself, I start dancin and rhymin
People on the streets start droppin a dime and
Tellin everybody: Hey, Spoonie Gee`s housin
He got the people in the place jumpin and bouncin
Up and down, hey, they just don`t understand it
How do I get results, my brother I just demand it
It starts with a pen and a paper, then to a studio
With the engineer that says `go`, now you know
This is the place to be

This is the place to be

Now in this game you gotta be a perfect rapper
Be sharp, clean, dressed up, for me I just be dapper
Do what I have to, I make money, but no trouble
But if your head is swollen, I bust your bubble
Cause in this game, with fake MC`s it`s been polluted
The reason that I`m in it, cause in me it has been rooted
Before I was born Almighty God had a plan
He said, You`re gonna be a rapper, my man
So - this is the place to be

This is the place to be

I finished my mission, I`m in a higher position
So when it comes to my records, choose to dance or just listen
You`ll be excited, could never be bored
I`m givin you a piece of my talent you can`t afford
It, so as the clock ticks and the time goes on
I thank God every minute for the day I was born
He gave me a talent, and above all the chance
To rap on the mic, to show you my dance
He wakes me up, then lays me down to sleep
So that I can write a record that can rock to the beat
You`re feelin low and need somewhere to go?
You come check me out at the show, you know?
This is the place to be

This is the place to be
