One time for your mind | |
(Hey everybody) | |
[VERSE 1] | |
You know it's gots to be funky if I'ma rhyme to it | |
Pick up where the others left off, and I do it | |
With so much soul, and so much self control | |
I'm a smooth operator puttin rappers on hold | |
Flowin like a stream, the rhyme scheme seems to gleam | |
Like a flashlight beam, but it's no dream | |
It's a real type thing. and it's happenin | |
Caused by applause, and I'm forced to get rappin | |
I'm rearrangin the lines, so I can change with the times | |
Cockin rhymes like nines and blowin minds | |
I glow and shine like a beacon when I'm speakin | |
Skin is light, but I'm not white or Puertorican | |
I'm an African descendant, very independent | |
I make my own money§ so don't worry how I spend it | |
Rappers follow me, but I don't need another shadow | |
Hollow MC's, don't even think about a battle | |
Cause if you got the mic, and you ain't rockin it right | |
I'll grab it, and drop the rhyme like a bad habit | |
Hey, I wouldn't have it any other way | |
So believe a brother when I say | |
God made me funky | |
[VERSE 2] | |
Now the way I kick a lyric you would think I play soccer | |
Rhyme stays proper, get ill, I be a doctor | |
Operate, like a well trained surgeon | |
Take the competition, bust em out like virgins | |
They get strung out, high dry, and hung out | |
Without a word like a cat took their tongue out | |
Their rhymes were frail, pale, weak, and stale | |
But I'm deliverin a brand-new style like a mail | |
Man, rain and hail, and sleet or snow | |
No need to worry, cause I'm guaranteed to show | |
Up, right on time with the rhyme to entertain ya | |
On the microphone, and leave like the lone ranger | |
'Who was that stranger?' Shoulders be shruggin | |
Everybody's buggin | |
Rhymes are funky dope and keep the crowd want more | |
Like a junkie hopin to make that score | |
I'm a true soul brother, cause that's the way to be | |
And only true soul brothers can dance for me | |
Hey, I wouldn't have it any other way | |
So believe a brother when I say | |
God made me funky | |
[VERSE 3] | |
You hear the rhymes on the radio, in the a.m. | |
On the am, then in the p.m., on the fm | |
Def Jef, and my rhymes'll stick witcha | |
Verses say a thousand words, just like a picture | |
And since I'm an artist, and my pen's a paintbrush | |
When they admire and inquire, I say, "It ain't much" | |
Rhymes flow natural like a second nature | |
And if you wanna get on the mic, you gotta await your | |
Turn, learn the fundamentals | |
Grab some instrumentals | |
Practice makes perfect, so rehearsing can pay off | |
But for now lay off the mic | |
And let a real pro show you how it's supposed to go | |
But hold up, let me hang my coat up | |
Let me clear my throat up | |
Hm-hm, now turn my mic up | |
Step right up, hurry, hurry, don't miss this | |
Watch me light up the mic like a Christmas | |
Tree, see, I mean business, I ain't effin around | |
Put the needle on the record by Jef, and you found | |
A new sound and you like the way the name sound | |
Plus it ain't the same sound, cause it ain't James Brown | |
No corny lyrics, I don't rhyme like that | |
But when you think about comin correct - I'm like that | |
I wouldn't have it any other way | |
So believe a brother when I say | |
God made me funky | |
(Got to be) (so funky) | |
(Got to be) | |
(Get down to the funky beat) |
One time for your mind | |
