pete rock & c.l. smooth
it's like that
Prepare yourself to catch a verse from the big purse  Rotate the megahertz  where you heard it first  The perpendicular  said none similar  Quadruple any figure  quick on the trigger   Helter skelter  wig out by the goodfella  Not Lou Pinella 'cause I'm black and mo' betta  Bust a phenomenum  we come to get busy  Deep in roots  but my name ain't Kizzie   Many many march 'cause I'm heavy on the starch  Never tell a farce when I scale on a arch  Jammin' on the radio, brothers say, "way to go"  Shape it like Play-Do, soprano at the Chateau   My theory periodically flows a odyssey  Bigger than modern technology  So save all the chit-chat when I kick a format fat  It's like that...   C.L. is the attribute you salute  'Cause I gotta make loot, can't afford to be cute  Enter the equilibrium in a medium  Breaking your cranium with no ultimatum   Drop a psalm like a bomb, never land in your palm  And now I'm so cool and calm  Pure unadulterated, premeditated  Lyrical form, Pete Rock is the storm   Sophistication I kick to a nation  I rare compilation I call recreation  The prognosis, so mackadocious  Straight up ferocious for those who can focus   Large like the Beatles, ask all my peoples  Never make movies, so don't talk sequels  So, hon, save the chit-chat when I kick a format fat (it's fat)  It's like that...   I'm all sold out, no doubt, without a question  The blessing your guests in a suprucated session  Anyway your honor, heresay the melee  Is here for the payday, so A to the K   Or should I say Deda, original baby par  Smooth like a reservoir, the funky Shang-Ri-La  No shame in my game, I'm set to entertain  And if it wasn't for the fame, skinz would never know my name   So back off a tad bit, that's a bad habit  'Cause I write the raw...for sure  Now I'm a flip a style and get crazy versatile  Never fragile 'cause I'm flowin' like the Nile   Swing a jewel or a gem, notice how I say them  With my approach, smoke a rhyme to a roach  A four-season lover, light-skinned and bigger  But what I deliver come before the cotton picker   So here's to another hit, perfectly legitimate  When I hit the skinz, guaranteed to keep the candle lit  So save all the chit-chat when I kick a format fat  It's like that...
