Tougher Than Leather

Lyrics

Unconcievable, unbelievable
 Grammar like a hammer information recieveable
 Sent by the lord, here and abroad
 With words that were thought they could retort
 For force because that makes Run the boss
 So get lost, becuase I just tossed the poss
 Make way today, and if I may, I say
 I make pay with Jay, so get away OK?
 Gaining weight, I ate the whole plate to date
 Never make the break, I don't state the stake
 Just keep the keep, don't sleep for weeks
 Get peeps to leap, and I'll bleep the jeep
 Put down the clown, get 'round the town
 I've bound the sound, and I've found the crown
 Get paid and laid, not jade afraid
 'Cause I stayed and made, not a man to fade
 Gotta group the troop, gotta shoot to shoot
 Shoot hoop to scoop, or a scoop to loop
 Going off and on, not soft to con
 Just black and back to go back and run
 Go to school and cool, not drool or pool
 Gotta soul and goal and cold and old jewel
 Upset the best, I met, met a jest
 Just lest the pest, and I am the best
 Gotta punch the crunch, cold munch the munch
 Not Grady or the lady from the Brady Bunch
 Got Gs and Lees, like Ds and Ts
 Charge Bs for freeze, or Ds with ease
 No dope to cope, just good to go
 There's hope the Pope, big nope for nope
 Quite clever and ever, but together forever
 Run-DMC, and we're tougher than leather
 Strong and mighty, hard as can be
 Perception of the life were as strong as D
 Every Friday I'm writing, write for what's right
 It's even deeper in the night, I'm keepin with my mic
 I gotta go for broke, and I ain't no joke
 I'm gonna yoke the choke, 'cause of the suckers I smoke
 Rush and crush, leave 'em in the dust
 Bust the bust, those scum who mess with us
 Only strong survive, and the weak will die
 As long as I'm alive, I'll keep my head up high
 'Cause we're strong in body, and smart in mind
 I was born to bind, as the gift to mankind
 I pump with jump, never givin no slack
 I be killin' the villain, and I chillin' (you're black)
 I'm not a bum, I'm not dumb, it's me you work from
 I'm the king to my beat 'til my kingdom come
 'Cause I'm rough and tough, call huff and puff
 Don't bluff the stuff, got enough to muff
 Don't long it on, go long on song
 Go on and on, just the best be done
 Put preach and teach, with a speech to reach
 All streets in each, with beats for treats
 Got the king supreme, may seem the gleam
 With a beam the ream, no screen was seen
 Not a gang to bang, or to hang with slang
 Talkin angers ang, about everything
 Just brothers and others, like fathers and mothers
 Who discovered the lovers that think they're up and above us
 No crime or time, just rhyme and lines
 For roaming on no phone in time
 Just cut the stuff, do you get enough?
 'Cause we're rougher than tougher and rougher-tougher than tough
 With a voice like thunder, words of wonder
 All alone standing tall, and suckers roll under
 Possessed with power, cowards will cower
 Dogs we devour, hour after hour after hour
 Three men riot, you can't deny it
 Will so ill, that you can't defy it
 Gonna live, positive, forever and ever
 Run-DMC, and we're tougher than leather
