| Yo whassup P? | 
| Yo nuttin man just coolin kick back in the studio wit DJ Scratch | 
| and my man Frank B, reminiscin about how we was tryin to shop | 
| our demo and everybody was dishin, youknowhatI’msayin? | 
| Yo P tell em whassup man | 
| Verse One: Parrish Smith | 
| We 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’s rock | 
| The hands got to clappin, the fingers got to snappin | 
| E and I was coolin, with his mans, he was snappin | 
| 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 hands-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 | 
| On the way to shop our demo 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 cruise in golden limos | 
| And all we kept sayin was please listen to my demo | 
| Please listen to my demo (3X) | 
| Please-please-please-ple-please listen to my demo | 
| Verse Two: Erick Sermon | 
| In the year eighty-seven when we first took off | 
| when I jumped to P-6−8 and broke North | 
| Walkin the big city streets of Manhattan | 
| Buildings, 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 from Mr. Virgo Simms | 
| He played the tape and we started to laugh | 
| Played? | 
| if it was sock? | 
| and they swoop and backstab | 
| People start to smile inside we buckwhylin | 
| Sayin this all started back from freestylin | 
| They liked it, and they were very kind | 
| But me and P was like, Yo E, where do we sign? | 
| Went in the backroom, things was luvy duvy | 
| Met Ron Resnick, and his partner Juggy | 
| Things was cool, 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 (3X) | 
| Please-please-please-ple-please listen to my demo | 
| Please listen to my demo (2X) |
