All For One

Lyrics

One for all
 Is all for one
 I hit a beat and swing a note as if my name was David Ruffin
 Quick to toast an MC just like an English muffin
 Don't worry about a thing 'cause the Puba's never bluffin'
 I gets headaches from the wack so then I take a bufferin' and I max
 I wait until the opportune time and then I tax but should I max?
 Now they say sinning is for sinners so I guess I'm not a sinner
 Beginnings is for beginners so I guess I'm no beginner
 This is how I spark it, with money in my pocket
 When it comes to having pressure I gets hard as a rocket
 MC Grand Pu, coming through all the residue
 The songs remain classics, dating back to the Babaloo
 My boys I call 'em hot, the phones all of them jock
 And I can think of many episodes I swung in Lincoln Park
 No I'm not a phony and I got a tenderoni
 Love the way she is not too fat, not too bony
 Don't drink Sanka, won't sink like a tanker
 Knock the boots of a skirt in Casablanca and I thank her
 Some rappers stink, like Englebert Humperdink
 Better yet Dick Caveat, I got a bad habit
 Similar to the girl, from she's gotta have it
 I think with the brain and I wish behind the zipper
 I'm living kinda good similar to Jack Tripper
 A landlord named Roper did a show at the Copa
 When I finish with this, I'll be paid like Oprah
 So, honey wants to act fly
 I'll just play like Guy and I'm
 Sayin' bye bye, bumb bitch
 Stick out your thumb and hitch
 'Cause you've been cut off like a light switch
 See I'm programmed to slam with the summer, spring, and fall
 Before I do a show I get some kicks out the mall
 Then I get my gear and I give Trev a call
 'Cause he works in the barbershop, right behind the mall
 Other rappers tried to rob me but you know they got did
 To put it blunt, honey I shrunk the kids
 So hookers back off break North here comes the regulator
 'Cause you doesn't find none greater
 One for all
 Is all for one
 One for all
 Is all for one
 On file is a style that's why you caught a clip
 My suitcases is packed and I'm going on a trip to Mic-a-delphia
 I go for self and still be slamming
 The school bell is ringing and I caught somebody cramming
 For the test, oh yes, my study guide was thick
 I cut you with my verbal didn't hurt you just a nick
 Off your face don't play possum watch me and I'll blossom like a rose
 And get some new clothes and a fresh fade from Rob
 Jump on the phone and dial the Now Rule Mob
 Now come one, come all, we about to get hectic
 If my crew don't get in, then the X makes an exit
 To the rear, I'm outta here, don't front on my brothers
 I take care of them before I take care of others
 Now wood bats is doomed in the nineties it's aluminum
 Step to the stage with a mic and I'm doing him something awful
 I'm a citizen and I'm lawful
 I go to hunt in the fall, rip the policemen's ball
 I got the power to make a car stall
 I guess I'm great, from blackness, and when the crowd slackens
 I stop drinking, and then I start thinking
 About days in the past when Derek X was last
 But now I'm on the top damn news travels fast
 'Cause I'm like that! They can't see this
 Read my book, it contains many pieces of verses
 I took the time to delete all the curses
 So moms reach deep in your purses
 And buy me take me home and try me and do me well
 One for all
 All is all for one
 One for all
 All is all for one
 Well, while I reign rhymes pour
 You suck it up like a straw and jump on the dance floor
 'Cause every time I step in a jam
 I make like a door and slam
 But then girls try to turn my knob cause I'm a heartthrob
 I guess it's just a hazard that comes with the job
 'Cause every time I rock a rhyme that shows Jammer's intellectual
 Girls want to get sexual
 Well, I guess I have to cope with being so dope
 You want to be me, but can't see me with a telescope
 You seek and search but still you can't find
 You're weak and it hurts to be deaf dumb and blind
 A supreme mind, will take you out of your paralysis
 I grip the mic so tight I get callouses
 And your analysis, is that the Lord
 Rips rhymes into shape with a mic cord
 I do it good 'cause I'm a positive black man
 Eating up suckers as if I was Pac Man
 Not a Dapper Dan fan I stay casual
 To rock like the J it comes gradual
 You got to know the ledge of wise and dumb
 And understand your culture of freedom
 Power equally with the Gods
 So you can build and form your cipher
 All your life you must teach truth
 Of the true and living God, not a mystery spook
 And when you do that, pursue that goal
 Which made the student enroll, and only then you'll prosper
 One for all
 Is what is all for one
 One for all
 Is what is all for one
 Is what is all for one
 Is is all for one
 Is what is all for one
 Is what is all for one
 One for all
