Joy and Pain

Joy and pain
 Like sunshine and rain
 Joy and pain
 Like sunshine and rain
 Well I'm the new kid, I'm just comin' up
 A lot of rappers think that I can't tear it up
 Well I'm 'a show 'em and ignore 'em
 And when they think I ain't lookin' I floor 'em
 I mean take 'em out I keep groovin'
 A slick bass line keep the beat movin'
 They can't take it they just fake it
 They wonder how the Rob Base make it
 I get I'll, you know the deal
 Cause this is how the Rob Base feels
 Joy and pain
 Like sunshine and rain
 Joy and pain
 Like sunshine and rain
 I keep smokin', hot like fire
 You had the turn, now retire
 Don't talk back, I'm not a new jack
 Cause I'm fresher than you, an' you're whacked
 I keep tryin', I'm not lyin'
 Up to number 1 is where I'm flyin'
 I won't slow down cause I'm the new kid
 With the devastatin' sound that hits
 In the house where I used to practice
 No one knew the Rob exists, but now
 I'm gettin' greedy, don't lead me
 The wrong way cause is just might, might, might
 Bring me down, I'll have to fight to get back up
 Move away cause I just won't slack up
 Joy and pain
 Like sunshine and rain
 Joy and pain
 Like sunshine and rain
 Now, I go to shows to watch other MCs rock
 And if they're good, I don't knock
 The way they perform cause I like to see a good show
 After that, go play C-low, y'know
 Cause I'm a leader, no I'm not a follower
 And MCs like you I swallow 'em
 So don't look and try to judge me
 Because you think that I'm another MC, well
 I'm the new kind, I just moved around
 But that don't mean I can't rip up the town
 Me an' my boys, we make noise
 I hate MCs that think they're with toys
 I'm hittin' harder than any other MC
 Who try to come up and go against me
 Joy and pain
 Like sunshine and rain
 Joy and pain
 Like sunshine and rain
 Not from the old school or from the new
 Applaud the boom, do what you want to
 Talk to me then try to put me down
 We used to be cool now we don't hang around
 Used to be friends but now we're foes
 Ask me why, man, no one knows
 Maybe jealousy between you and me
 Could be the fame, could be the money
 I'm goin' for mine and I don't really care
 Cause the spotlight Rob Base don't share
 I'm the headliner of this show
 And you're just a kid and you need to grow, because
 Joy and pain
 Like sunshine and rain
 Joy and pain
 Like sunshine and rain
