Run Dmc - Word Is Born lyrics

[Run] Let's begin, to talk!!

[D.M.C.]

1990, and this is what's goin on

to the break of dawn

24/7, Run-D.M.C. in effect

That's ??

All those weak-rhymin, rewindin MC's

[Run] That means you pause

[both] My word is born

[Run]

Yeah, speakin on truth

from the old school on down to the youth

Since the days, that I was the age of

"three"; stop - listen to me

This is how it used to be - "go!"

Stand on another line, why?

You did a crime now the time is mine

I school you and your crew, why?

Youse is my brother

Stop - sellin and killin one another

Take some time, to see what's missin

Brothers in the ?, we on a mission

Thinkin back from the sale you made

and back home, a grave is what your brother paid

His life, because of a system

Now you think you're down, you cold dissed him

Shut up, cause I'm fed up, with this culture

And flyin high in the sky, a big vulture

Waitin and debatin, to see who's next

for "brothers and sisters" of the opposite sex

So hold on, keep it intact

and go on, flow on, positive black

B-boys be black be proud, right on

"You know we're bout to" be black

and my word is born

My word is born

My word is born

My word is born

[D.M.C.]

Let's, let's..

Let's begin to talk truth -- it seems

that y'all make a big out of things that are small

We all play the same game for fame to claim

?? bright lights and write your name

They'll soup you up, til you think you're large

Got a spot on tour, but I'm still in charge

A big nigga's hittin it, don't renege

Bust a rap like a cap like a snap of twig

that extends from the hands of a branch on a tree

Like you new jack rappers, run from me

I got proof of truth, I cut and go raw

(Word em up D!) My word is born

[cuts by Jay and samples to the last ten seconds]

[D.M.C.]

1990's

And ain't nuttin changed, PUNK!
