Epmd - Please Listen to My Demo (version of Out of Business II) lyrics

[P]Uhh, yeah, knahmean?

Just kick back in the studio with my man E-Double, ?

[E]Yeah yeah

[P]Just thinkin back to yo how large we'd be, knahmean?

Yeah, to them cats out there hustlin them demos

Keep the faith, keep hustlin, knahmean E?

[E]Yeah yeah, yeah yeah

[P]I'ma lace em like this, check it

[Verse One: Parrish Smith]

I was coolin in my car one day you see

Clockin a double nickel on the L-I E

When it dawned on us that it was, ten o'clock

Turned on the tunes to hear the DJ rock

The hands got to clappin, the fingers start to snappin

E now was coolin, Brooklyn spirits we was snappin

Comin in and out of fantasies on how large we can get

Coolin in rocks and Benzes with the ground effect kits

I wanted black, E was on the two-tone

Stupid boomin system with the hand-free phone

The dream gets better and I would like to go on

but I was brought back to reality by a toot of a horn

Smoke everywhere, oh just what we needed

A meeting at twelve, and the car overheated

Feelin real low, low enough to die

Holdin up traffic, on the FDR drive

We had to play ourselves, in the fresh dipped gear

E Double had to push while MD steered

There went our dreams, to cool with golden limos

And alls we kept sayin was please listen to my demo (listen to my demo)

Please listen to my demo [x3]

Please-please-please-ple-please listen to my demo

[Verse Two: Erick Sermon]

In the year eighty-seven when we first took off

Then I jumped on P-6-8 and broke North

Walked the big city streets of Manhattan

Buildings, the whole nine yards, so enchantin

Thinkin if we got a chance, we could rock it

Funky fresh demo tape in my pocket

We was walkin, and got dissed twice today

Then we stopped at 1974 Broadway

We walked in with grins on our chins

And P had juice with Mr. Virgil Simms

He played the tape and we started to laugh

Played ?if it was sock? innocent from backstabs

People start to smile inside we buckwhylin

Sayin this all started back from freestylin

They liked it, and they was very kind

But me and P was like, "Yo G, where do we sign?"

Went in the backroom, things was luvy duvy

Met Ron Resnick, and his partner Juggy

It felt good, as I remembered

We signed the dotted line, now we Fresh Record members

Had dreams, of fancy cars and limos

And I wanted was somebody, to listen to my demo

Please listen to my demo

Please-please-please-ple-please listen to my demo

Please listen to my demo

Please-please-please-ple-please listen to my demo

Please listen to my demo

Please-please-please-ple-please listen to my demo

listen to my demo

listen to my demo

demo, d-d-d-d-demo, demo, d-d-demo

demo, demo, hah, Millenium Ducats, peace
