Here We Go Again

Here we go
Money in the pocket, gold around the neck
If you can't relate, just clap your hands
(Here we go again)
(Here we go again)

And word has it the brother's esoteric knowledge
Here we go
Infatuate, lust and mate, mental state, compensate
(Yeah, y'all come on)
I can relate, but I rather innovate
I got a funky beat to let you know
They can't understand a word I said
Intelligent, relevant, eloquent speakin'
Go with the flow? No, no, no
Long as it's movin' on a funky track
Turn any jam to a political party
Come on
Only real brothers wanna hear real rhymes
So he gon' come this time with a simplified rhyme
Check it out
I am the brother that sets tempo
(Go go go go)
I drop science for the brothers on the street
People comin' to the jam to hear me flow

All the soft suckers want the nickel-and-dime
With mediocre adjectives, verbs and nouns
(Here we go again)
(Here we go again)
'Cos I can pick the beat up and turn it around
Become irate, while the ladies irate

There's no need for the profane rap
(Yeah, y'all come on)

Rock-the-body-body-body-body, here we go
Tryin' to imitate, or better emulate
Come on
Got a funky rhythm, now watch me go

So now I gotta tone down the sound
Some people wanna dance, some people wanna listen
They would rather me change my rhymes
Candy-coated, sugar-coated bubblegum rap
The live lyricist is here and it's so
My vocabulary's over their head
Intellects get it, and others want the beat
My versatile styles, I'm able to adapt
I tone down the lyrics, suppressed ego
Some rappers can't rap and try to hide it with a curse
Party people in the party only wanna dance
Around and around and around we go
Here we go
Like the creator I love to create
If I get too deep, then you won't relate
Listen to the rhythm and do your dance
Some people at the party only wanna hear the dissin'

I'm lyrically potent, very well versed
Yeah yeah

So all you sissy-soft suckers gainin' weight
The way they feel I could be erased
Is a little too deep for the fans

A positive brother? Yeah, yeah, we know

The word is out
You know I'm talkin' shit 'cause I'm all that

Raise your conscience and rock your body
It's hard to rock a party when you're lyrically advanced
And I'll just party with the alter ego

Peace and love, conquerin' hate
(Go go go go)
I am a brother, young, gifted and black
All they want is you to pump that bass
So I gotta come with the watered-down sound
Come on
You do the dancin', I'll do the freakin'

To be known as the great
(Yeah, y'all come on)
Kool Moe Dee's in the house again
(Go go go go)
Rings on every finger, boomin' system in effect
I got a date with faith
Rather than tryin' to change the times
And here we go again
But they would rather just watch me go

(Here we go again)
