CRU - Just Another Case (1997)

14 - Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth - They Reminisce Over You

Uno, Dos, motherfucking tres it's time to flow
Scientifik's back, "Yo what is that?" Act like you know
If you attempt to diss the scientist, you're a sitting duck
And if you're next to the mic get out of there before you're ripped up
Or simply played like lotto, see my motto's no fronts G
And those out of control will get rolled up like a blunt see
I split the fucking philly like I split ya dome you silly
Then I take out all the black shit like I take out all the whack shit
I put in the word and put in the herb and then I roll it up
Before the second round you going down and won't get up
You flipping your lip and talking shit but you ain't saying nothin'
Prepare to get toasted like a fucking English muffin
I believe in fair play, so hey you'll get your turn too
I wasn't paying attention, oh my bad yo I burnt you
Scientifik kicking lyrics can't be taken by no other
"Are you Dope?" you motherfuckin' damn Skippy peanut butter
But these brothers want to flam damn I can't understand son
Yo sweat the other man because yo I ain't the damn one

(Hook)
I ain't the damn one
"I am not the one I got more game than Parker Brothers"
I ain't the damn one
"I am not the one I got more game than Parker Brothers

Don't try to play me like Atari sorry I never played that
Do all my shows live because my homie don't play dat
Your style is too soft you lost 'till next time
You couldn't get off if you was on a phone sex line
Don't disrespect mine, check out the next rhyme
I finished the album, you was stuck on your next line
America's most B-L-U-N-T-E-D, your lyrics is ghost that means empty to me G
You little Bee Gee, stick with John Travolta
Me being whack? picture that with a Minolta
The scientifik man plans the soul songs
You pick the wrong hand and like bam you get rolled on
You better learn that niggas burn when I get ill shit
I make a nigga look like fire marshall Bill
So you see the scientifiks, not the one to be dicked
Dope from the prefix, your album needs a remix
So won't you call my man Rhythm Nigga Joe yo
But don't you try to flam I ain't nobodies ho

If I was Let's Make a Deal G, you'd have the wrong door
If I was a building, you'd be up on the wrong floor
You get the picture, hope it hit ya 'cause I ain't the one
And if you didn't, listen kid because I'm painting one
For all you sorry saps who cannot rap you need some lessons
Come off it black, you couldn't wRap yourself some Christmas presents
You lack the essence that it takes to be a Bulldog
And if I wasn't you I wouldn't have no pull dog
But when it comes to having pull I never been a failure
Matter of fact black I'm pulling like a tractor trailer
See all the skins are moving in because I'm getting paid
But if you take away the P all I got left is AIDS
And I ain't going O-U-T L-I-K-E T-H-A-T
That's simply how it's got to be, that's how I'm living G
And if you couldn't spell I said I wasn't going out like that
And everything was right, rewind it spell it back
So who you telling black?, I'm the one you gelling black
Thinking of rebelling 'cause your album isn't selling jack
I couldn't stand what you can't understand son
But sweat the other man because yo I ain't the damn one

Scientifik | I Aint The Damn One (1991)

Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth
Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth
Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth

Life is a test, many quest the Universe
And through my research I felt the joy and the hurt
The first shall be last and the last shall be first
The Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth

Life is a test, many quest the Universe
And through my research I felt the joy and the hurt
The first shall be last and the last shall be first
The Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth

Knowledge this wisdom, this goes back when I was 12
I loved doing right but I was trapped in Hell
Had mad ideas, sad eyes and tears
Years of fears, but yo my foes couldn't bear
I searched for the truth since my youth
And went to church since birth, but it wasn't worth the loot
That I was paying, plus the praying
I didn't like staying 'cause of busy-bodies and dizzy hotties
That the preacher had souped up with lies
Had me cooped up lookin at loot, butt and thighs
During the service, he swallowed up the poor
And after they heard this, they wallowed on the floor
But I ignored and explored my history that was untold
And watched mysteries unfold
And dropped a jewel like Solomon, but never follow men
'Cause if you do your brain is more hollow than
Space oblivia or the abyss
With no trace of trivia left with the hiss
Does it pay to be deaf, dumb and blind?
From a slave we was kept from the mind
And from the caves he crept from behind
And what he gave was the sect of the swine
When the bible, it condemns the pig
I don't mean to pull your hems or flip your wigs
But we used to wear a turban, but now we're in the urban
No more wearing beanies and dress like the genie
No hocus pocus 'cause I focus on the facts
And put it on the tracks, embroid it through the wax
I speak on Jacob, it might take up some time
And too much knowledge, it might break up the rhyme
I did it anyway just to wake up the mind
Of those who kiss stones or prays on the carpet
Those who sit home or sell books by the market
Need to chill and get their mind revived
For years religion did nothing but divide

The Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth
Life is a test, many quest the Universe
And through my research I felt the joy and the hurt
The first shall be last and the last shall be first
The Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth
Life is a test, many quest the Universe
And through my research I felt the joy and the hurt
The first shall be last and the last shall be first
The Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth

I strolled through the Books of Job to unfold
And open bibles instead of hoping on revivals
Calling on his name and screaming Hallelujah
When he hardly knew ya, that's how the Devil fooled ya
See, look into my eyes brethren, that's the lies of a Reverend
Why should you die to go to Heaven?
The Earth is already in space, the Bible I embraced
A difficult task I had to take
I studied till my eyes was swollen and only arose when
I found out that we were the chosen
I deal with the truth and build with the youth
And teach my son as he kneels on the stoop
Son, life is a pool of sin corrupted with foolish men
And women with wicked minds, they build picket signs
To legalize abortion, the evil eye distortion
I quiz son with my wisdom
Before I converted I was perverted and knowledge was asserted
The study of wisdom, I preferred it
The understanding, it gave me mental freedom
I even learnt Caucasian were really the Tribe of Edom
The white image of Christ is really Cesare Borgia
And uhh, the second son of Pope Alexander
The Sixth of Rome and once the picture was shown
That's how the devils tricked my dome
I prophesized to save a man, but no one gave a damn
For my nation, the seed of Abraham
Blessed with the tongue of Hebrew
Now we're strung on needles and some are plunging evils
So study and be wise in these days of darkness
Peace to my nephew Marcus
