lyrics

Chorus

This is the way it's supposed to be
flippin the flows, when we're spittin on the M I C
ever since the first time we heard a fat beat
Squigedy boombap rap is comin back as we speak yo

This is the way it's supposed to be
flippin the flows, when we're spittin on the M I C
ever since the first time we heard a fat beat
Squigedy boombap rap is comin back as we speak


verse 1 Samoerai

it really all began at the age of 13
a young kid was lookin for a way to live his dreams
Boombap bumpin through my speakers, but needless
to say Hip-Hop was a daily routine

I wanted to make it, become a superstar when I was older
mom started askin questions so what I told her
was this, Listen, I really feel the rhythym
it goes automatically without me takin a decission

So I will, swim the oceans and climb the hills
come up on top and remain the king in my field
One day I'll pay the bills jumpin up on stage and display my skillz
sign a record deal on my own label

feel that raw vibe, stuck inside my verse
since the first moment I picked up a mic and rehearsed
my thirst for rap is large, larger by the minute
I'm in it, to bring the oldschool back and represent it

like a menace yo and keep on rockin joints until I'm finished
and hiphop's a livin art again for all of yall to witness
hitlist filled with tracks that bounce hard
the sickness, professors searchin raps of mine for glitches

I maneuver smoother than most can do
cuz I'm a true renewer of the flow and grooves
Like thiss, i had to show you people how I judge it
my judgement, but now I'm about to pass it to my cuzzin


verse 2 JaJa

thanx man, let me grab the mic and explain
from where we came, and the way we be playin this game
cuz it's a shame how the fame rearanged all those things
that made it what it was before it went up in flames

now everybody these days thinks it's real easy
what we do on a stage and how we became the team we
formed way back in the days, when we were cheesy
still walking our ways to discover the real meaning

why we lived our lives the way we all lived it
twisted, in the mind cuz we all spliffed it
Untill the day arrived we realised we're all gifted
but shit kid, we had much to do to get it lifted

up a notch or two, make an old nineties brew
with beats and rhymes that blast you too
that classic mood, where everybody was just laidback and cool
let's just chill like we all fucking used to do

it's that commercialism, that's holdin ya mind in a prison,
don't fight back, but like Rakim "let the rythm hit 'em"
reminisce and don't forget them
old school times where everybody's spittin' funky rhymes

like Oh yes, ain't that fresh,
everybody knows we get down like this
but oooh crap, they fucking up rap,
and everybody seems to get down like that yo


Chorus

This is the way it's supposed to be
flippin the flows, when we're spittin on the M I C
ever since the first time we heard a fat beat
Squigedy boombap rap is comin back as we speak yo

This is the way it's supposed to be
flippin the flows, when we're spittin on the M I C
ever since the first time we heard a fat beat
Squigedy boombap rap is comin back as we speak yo
