Lyrics Mellow My Man / Jusufckwithis - The Roots

Mellow My Man / Jusufckwithis

Ladies and gentlemen
The sounds that you’re about to hear
Can be devastating, to your ear
Ladies and gentlemen
The sounds that you’re about to hear
Can be devastating, to your ear
World premiere, world premiere
World premiere, world premiere
World premiere
One two
Yes, y’all got the legendary Roots crew in the house
We coolin' out, relaxin'
My partner M-Ilitila is in the battlefield in action
We in effect mode right now for all of y’all
We even brought my young boy Dice Raw
We gon' set it off right about…
Yo, y’all feelin' this?
Come on, uh, uh, uh…
La Di Da Di, who likes to party?
Like Slick Rick the Ruler, I’m cool as a ice brick
With soul, like afro picks, with the black fist
Leave a crowd drippin' like John the Baptist
It’s the cause of that «Oh…»
Yo, the skits I kick flow
Like catfish, and got wide emcees on the blacklist
I’m sharp as a cactus, and quick to bust gymnastic tactics
The Roots is really true to this rap shit
Now holla to the scholarly, street skats that follow me
Back to the Soul Shack for all the rap colonies
Max, what, Illa Fifth is abstract
Make Shadrach Abednego like Meshach
Black Thought, the nappy cat, a bookworm with soul
Soul as cool as Malcolm Little with a conk and a perm
Burn the herb sticks like wicks, flip it when I slaps the hand
Of my mellow my man, Malik B
Here I goes, negroes best to know the flower
The professional, best in those skills that kills so…
WHOA, slow down before you go down
Sissy, this is Agatha Christie, you’re slain and know now
Next contender, Malik’s the axe offender
Critique me so uniquely with mystique that’s more deeper than the
Microphones I grip, psych with poems so’s I slits
Throats, put him in a quote, when he croaks
You isn’t it or is it my mellow Jack
Son, I get wreck with a TEC, make you jump and say 'ribbit'
I exhibit many forms, prohibit the corny norm…
(And, what, what, what) on the norm
Captured, was all the wack shit y’all niggas manufactured
Yo, you could even ask Anita about the, rap-ture
I figured, perhaps, yo, to say this plain
For my mellow my man
The way we do it like this
That, for my mellow my man
Bring it back for my mellow
No, no no, do it like that
This, for my mellow my man
Like this, y’all, yo
N-n-n-no, we do it like this and a
For my mellow my man
Like that for my, ayo
No, do it like that, y’all
For my mellow, yo
It’s like that, uh
Yo, I got spunk, plus funk
And Jump Like Punks, to Get Beat Down
Matter fact, turn that heat down…
We 'bout to, we finna get funky, a’ight
If you are a lover of music, throw one hand up in the air for me right about now
You nam’sayin'?
Because if you love music, yeah, you love the good shit
You definitely fuckin' with this, you nam’sayin'?
You got to deal with this, and if you know the time, you on the tip
Because The Roots Crew’ll rock the house
'Cause we doin' it for you, and we the ultimate, check it out
You want some good shit, fuck with this, here we go
You know the time, you’re on the tip, uh
The Roots crew will rock the house

Yo, you want some good shit, fuck with this
And if you know the time, you’re on the tip
