De La Soul - Down Syndrome lyrics

[Pos]

I be that mind blessin blessin these lessons we've ignited

Want to bring it to my face man you're cordially invited

cause I've cited, you posess no science in your thinking

So I'm gonna (never) you're blinking!

[Dove]

Fingers be pointin, and leakin falsifyin the stink

You think I'm pink I bl-l-link with them shades of thought and think

(and in this corner be the hush) so play on William Rhodes

Cause at the sound of the bell my circle square controls

And all MC's best sweat, we bringin buckets of heat

[Pos]

So don't fret kid I let you lick the love I secrete, yo

Even my foes give me bravos, and that shows

total domination in this rhyme complication

[Dove]

Yeah the skill is a cinch I rock the womb with a mic

and in the days of the nickel and breast, I knew de yes yes y'allin

was the callin, clearly not for the gat

For combat, I bring a bag of my rhymes for the SAT

[Pos]

I'm Plug One-of-a-kind, for you people's delight

And for you sucker MC's, step to your knees

Ain't no second thoughts and all your thoughts are from Orion

I can tell that you a devil by them rhymes you're designin

Your play doggin tactics can't fuck with my facets

Just because you talk all that glock shit don't mean you can rock shit!

Your identities on freeze

Just a form of protozoa tryin to cross them seas

[Dove]

See high horse riders gettin shot by the sheriff

Cause nobody's safe for crimes

And even all you skirts need to checkin in your upstairs attic

Cause Mase is smackin hoes if hoes is startin static

[Pos]

Now it ain't all good when your jam goes wood

So as a deterrant, I use mental current

Got them brothers shook, peep the look comin out of the face

Cause they all catch a bruise from the hits we make

Your fame and cars should be listed as magnets

Legends never die but they can get shot and killed

Ain't nuttin glitter when you're battlin MC's

you once imitated in a mirror so to down syndrome you kneel

[Dove]

The same status I heard, the same nothin

My ears fears the faulty locks tryin to lock down the stops

but I earn more than your Menudo or your Boyz II Men

While down syndrome keeps you immune to frequencies I send

Fresher than a sniff off havin them J in fifth

I identify with your rhythm

but I exist for more than just a Benz, so mends

I'm cuttin off my friends to keep a smile calicum iron grain

[Pos]

Let me tell you a little something about Soul (tell em son)

I be a piece of the East coast, so give a toast to

Plug Wonder why back in the day who soaked his words in jigga

So when I ran a phrase in June you didn't catch it til December

I'm a member of them kids from the inner city

Giving you kitties audible treats, you be aching for making

more money than a pagan holiday

Not from the PJ's, yet I still got something to say

[Dove]

Say what man? You gritty like a diamond grenade

For the cameo spot you tries to fool Parade

You acrobats flip the star gazin map, for alla that

you'll be the first to place, and ran it all to a waste

And all the style that you bring (gotta make decks bend)

You gotta rip it from the start (when the beats come in!!!)
