Rock On |
Welcome aboard the Underground Railroad. |
I’m your captain |
I’m gonna explain the reason why I keep on rappin' |
Why I keep on movin', doin' shows in Manhattan |
Knowin' in my heart that I’ll probably never go platinum |
See, it’s for the love—music is in my protoplasm |
I can only wish but I don’t have a genie and my name’s not Aladdin |
Fasten your seatbelts, we’re takin' off soon |
I’m gonna rock rock on, on a rocket to the moon |
Start a label up there, sign an alien rappin' clique |
Sell a million units and get paid in amethyst |
‘Cause on this planet, reality doesn’t exist |
You’d rather sell souls than to sign some real shit |
But I refuse to put it in park, so I’m shiftin' the gears |
Even though time flies, I’m 28 in years |
That’s about 10 thousand and 2200 months |
Spittin' heat for ten years and haven’t been signed once |
How I’m 'sposed to blow up when independent labels front |
Don’t pay up, don’t promote—your record label sucks |
You got MCs out there that deserve to get put on |
So for them, I’m gonna rock rock rock on |
Supernat (rock rock rock on) |
And The Plague (rock rock rock on) |
Stronghold (rock rock rock on) |
Red Clay (rock rock rock on) |
Juggaknots (rock rock rock on) |
M-Pire (rock rock rock on) |
All of y’all (rock rock rock on) |
N.Y. (rock rock rock on) |
At first, I wanted to paint, so I went to art school |
Then I saw heads rappin', bangin' on tables in the lunchroom |
In a cypher, they were playin' some hot beats |
And these heads rappin' was C-Rayz Walz and Mobb Deep |
Yeah, I went to school with them dudes |
And they dropped out, and eventually I did too |
I formed a crew with a group named Doom—they call 'em Hydra now |
And they even sound liver now |
So me and Blitzkrieg, now we got Park Slope on lock |
That’s when I battled, this Puerto Rican cat named Block |
And we battled, he beat me, I was impressed with his flow |
He saw potential, so we broke bread and smoked 'dro |
This ain’t fake—trust me, this is a real tale |
Block had a group called Zooty Zoo and introduced me to Will Tell |
We did a track with Metaphor and shit clicked rapidly |
Then Block said, «Let's form the Brooklyn Academy» |
So we did. |
Kids flipped, they loved our songs |
We were like Pink Floyd, Run-D.M.C., and Cheech & Chong |
Then Black Panther, Marco Polo came along |
So now we gon' rock rock rock rock on |
Jean Grae (rock rock rock on) |
E.O.W. |
(rock rock rock on) |
Medina Green (rock rock rock on) |
And Hiero (rock rock rock on) |
Beatminerz (rock rock rock on) |
Boot Camp (rock rock rock on) |
Molemen (rock rock rock on) |
All of y’all (rock rock on, yeah) |
I never stop (stop) but I pause for the cause |
When I rock (rock) my voice echo through halls |
And the block (block) be like, «PH, «I'm so (hot… hot… hot…) |
I rock for Brooklyn, Park Slope, that’s my home |
I rock for the brothers on lock gettin' chopped for the phone |
I rock for the b-boys and the DJ’s |
I rock for MC’s and writers, catchin' tags on the freeway |
I rock for my dad and my uncles—rest in peace |
I rock for my grandma Isabel who’s also deceased |
I rock for those who died and those who are alive |
I rock for my mom and sis—they helped me to survive |
I rock for my wife—she brought our son in our life |
I mean it so sincere that I’m sayin' it twice |
I rock for my wife—she brought our son in our life |
I rock for him like when I rock him to sleep at night |
I rock for the Ac, my family, in these dark days |
I rock, for y’all, like I rock for The Plague |
And one day, we’ll all be one, rockin' on stage |
Lord, what I say is true, so I’m rockin' for you |
We goin' Ocean (rock rock rock on) |
Everliving Sound (rock rock rock on) |
Bruise Frank (rock rock rock on) |
Venom (rock rock rock on) |
My dad Robert Sr. (rock rock on) |
My son Raiden (rock rock rock rock on) |
My wife Shawntay (rock rock rock on) |
The Diaz family (rock rock rock on) |
The Edo family (rock rock rock on) |
DP One (rock rock rock on) |
Turntable Annihilists (rock rock rock on) |
DP-1 (rock rock rock on) |
Turntable Annihilists rock rock rock on |
