| A-yo I’m the type of brother that don’t like to hear the same thing
|
| Over and over so I don’t listen to the radio
|
| I go beat shopping with my brothers or my lady yo
|
| They take me to the spot so I can dig
|
| Come home with the fat stack and dig
|
| Instead of playing sports I’d rather dig
|
| Call my nigga Kan Kick to see if he got this shit
|
| Hey you heard that Cal Tjader?
|
| We be sprung off them loops like brothers play hoops
|
| Playing old static loop tapes for Lex, Jeeps, Bizzers and Coupes
|
| Keep sampling wack while I dig up the raw core
|
| A-yo I’m out, I gotta go the record store
|
| Peace
|
| Damn, what time is it?
|
| Tryin' to think, should I hit up that TO spot, hit that LA
|
| Damn, next week we goin to the bay so
|
| Ay there go Mad, ay Mad!
|
| (Yeah is that Madlib, ay what’s up Madlib? Wussup)
|
| Blaze this for all y’all
|
| By all means necessary raw, no holds barred
|
| Spit at y’all, sixteen bars of war for who you sleeping on
|
| Emcees acting hard, nutting up to catch flu balls
|
| Stomp before you pawn the dark paws when I drop dogs
|
| Landing multiples, no charge when beef starts
|
| Med ends it with a verse that snaps you retards
|
| You fall of cos no heart, California mindstate
|
| I regulate, rhyme penetrate right through your chest plate
|
| Checkmate fate for your demo tape and yellow tape
|
| Of one trace, Med the master race throughout the tri-state
|
| On a daily base stay laced with a verse to rock a universe
|
| A skirt, blowing up and won’t burst
|
| There’s lessons to be learnt
|
| When I’m on fire you stay concerned
|
| Cos I’m eager to burn biters for the chips as they earn
|
| That’s my word, drink, smoke a pound of herb
|
| Herb and swerve my way to learn
|
| 805 ways to get served with words
|
| Finally here
|
| Hmm, what should I get? |
| Mad selections
|
| Damn, 1969
|
| Steve Kuhn, you know that got some Fender Rhodes on it
|
| Oh shit, I ain’t seen that Roy Ayers, 1968, good year
|
| What about that Bug-out shit? |

| Ornette Coleman
|
| (Ornette?)
|
| I ain’t wastin' my money
|
| Ay, can you hold my record? |
| Be right back
|
| (Go hit this weed)
|
| Damn, they got mad shit
|
| (Man, it’s cold as fu- out here)
|
| Two hit’s and pass, two hit’s and pass
|
| Steppin' back in this piece
|
| Ever since I was young digging in my pop’s stack
|
| Sampling off cassettes, 33s, 45s and 8-Tracks
|
| Rare wax, a true loop digga’s attraction
|
| Always spend a fraction of my check on fat jams
|
| Second hand stores get rushed like area wars
|
| You could always catch me digging at your local record stores
|
| For the raw buying vinyl until my final
|
| Days, blow away pay, various ways to connect
|
| Fat loops, put mics in check
|
| Turn the SP on and commence to dissect
|
| Bust a vest in your rest he’s a fake nigga
|
| So how many y’all niggas know about crate digging |
