Last of the red hot (red hot), lovin' emcees Who came up poor, grits and government cheese The only thing I ever really loved in my life, was a mic Some of my niggaz fell in love with MP's, come on Work the bass, nigga, juggle them keys I'm tryin'a get a piece of this government green And smack 'em in the melon with another LP C'mon, help a couple people in the struggle get free We from the block, where people stay prepared to rock And it's hard, 'cause opportunity be scared to knock And mo' people in the 'hood found dead from cops Than guns that drop, that sprayed off random shots But what'cha know good, people say they in the hood fo' good You ain't a prisoner, the world got mo' to it Sky's the limit, it don't take but a minute Don't fear for your people, nigga, my hood's yo hood Yeah, we did it I know in these tryin' times it feels confusin' That's why I came to y'all to dance to the music Unless, we face it first and try not to lose it Even if it gets worse, they Can't Stop This (stop this) Can't Stop This, I want my peoples to rock this Bang this music in your speakers and boxes Legs and users, 'bout as a deep as my thoughts is Sit back and I'mma paint you a portrait This stuff can make you think you are lost This shit can have you exhausted Just, picture the planet and imagine it's yours, kid Don't ever let nobody knock you outta your orbit I never seen a bridge we couldn't shuffle across it We got a lotta people livin' a life, that's pure trivia Real hip hop, I ain't tryin'a get rid of ya Can't have that, because here come, the city of Philly Put an end to all the trivia, really Where I'm walkin' everybody ain't pretty or friendly It's work, my whole life they ain't give me a penny Comin' up between a rock and a hard, watchin' for God People, hip hop, and with no option at all Yo, it's how it's goin' down I know in these tryin' times it feels confusin' That's why I came to y'all to dance to the music Unless, we face it first and try not to lose it Even if it gets worse, they Can't Stop This (stop this) We bring the ? part of raps, the special sounds The robe's long enough to be considered a gown Thought's pen is sharp enough to be considered a crown When the plate come, take some, pass it around It's the last of the hip hop lovin' emcees In front of an audience that never been pleased I'm comin' from all the streets that never been cleaned And speakin' for any faith that never been seen This debeneir style of my words is high-caliber Speakin' my mind for every day that's on the calendar Cause I'll'a been quiet, about as long as I can handle it Walked a mile in these boots that I'm standin' in Mellow soul brother with his lyrical dean on The stages I'm seen on, mic I fiend on When it's all full of soul, that's when it means more I never hesitate to give a shoulder to lean on, yo Check it out, man I know in these tryin' times it feels confusin' That's why I came to y'all to dance to the music Unless, we face it first and try not to lose it Even if it gets worse, they Can't Stop This (stop this)
