Verse One (Funky DL)
Yeah I’m back again, it’s Funky on the track again,
and everything is smooth right from the music to the packaging,
I never run short like Park Ave to Madison,
I been around the block from Knight like this was Gladys
and the Pips on a midnight train going from to coast to coast,
arriving at a place where I ain’t falling for no okie dokes,
from these Pinocchios’ who smoking more than Smokey smokes,
asking if we puff, puff, give, you fucking know we don’t,
I got that legal mind, the hardest worker,
run up on DL the wrong way I might murk ya’,
put you back in the box, double tape and return ya’,
trying to compare me with some dude I never heard a’,
it’s murda, (murda), murda, (murda),
no wonder why they keep turning round clutching they purse up,
a threat, but with no aggression,
cos I’m bad like MJ 1987.
Chorus (Funky DL)
Everybody listen up, I got something to tell you,
there’s many things I tried to do, some of them fell through,
but when it comes to making these riddims and these tunes,
nobody seems to do it in the way that I do,
everybody listen up, I got something to tell you,
there’s many things I tried to do, some of them fell through,
but when it comes to making these riddims and these tunes,
nobody seems to do it in the way that I do, do, do, do, do.
Verse Two (Funky DL)
This ain’t an image, this ain’t a persona,
this a thriller, this a drama, this is killing them with Karma,
this is playing every city from Chicago to Jakarta,
this is heat like lava, this is sweet Peach Cobbler,
this is D, the beat-making rhyme... I keep saying that,
will never drop the ball, you can’t surprise me when you playing catch,
I got a knack for this, it’s a second nature,
run up on DL the wrong way I might blaze ya’,
it’s too bad that I do brag,
I got rhymes that’ll bun ya’ from my 94 school bag,
from the days of white vests and black doo-rags,
from the days of JD string shoe bags,
I been perfecting this art-form with a precision,
to be the best whether or not I get the recognition,
I’m a threat, but no aggression,
and this another one to add to your collection.
Chorus (x2)
