Song Lyrics

"Rock To It"

by Shad
Album: When This Is Over

A-rock rock to it, a-freak freak to it, a-to the beat to it, it's unique music
A-rock rock to it, a-freak freak to it, a-to the beat to it, this is how we do it

Shad concocts plots and perfects clever scams
You can't find a better man in an Eddie Vedder Jam
MC's can't see the flow, unbelievable
We set records even when the needle's broke

Don't need the dough, asking more bang for your buck
The only lands a Canuck, that cant handle a puck
Played penalty killas skillfully, pass and poke check
When black flows jet there's mo'cash than OPEC

Or Exxon, Ex-cons, exploit the oil fields of the inner cities
Someday I hope the soils heal
I toil building a dream where my future can stay safe
A place where I never have to move it or vacate
Physically I'm not in great shape cause I placate
And don't consume greens besides whatever-my-grass my steak ate

The fakes keep frontin' but I just don't care
Wearing forces is the only time I put on airs
I spit hard a hard hittin' verse, when I'm spittin' it hurts
I never shift into first, let alone put the whip in reverse
My freestyling's like a gift and a curse
So sick with the verse, you gotta think I'd written it first
And plus my, skills with sounds thrills the crowds
I could fill my mouth with Prozac pills and I'll still get down

A-rock rock to it, a-freak freak to it, a-to the beat to it, it's unique music
A-rock rock to it, a-freak freak to it, a-to the beat to it, this is how we do it

Now whether on stage or in the studio space
We schoolin cats to the game it's just the usual case
I'm like you wanna learn to flow homie move to the bass
And if you wanna make dough homie move to the States

I see suckers in style and musical taste
'Cause when we step on the stage and flash the futiful face
It makes the honeys hearts beat above a suitable pace
Showing the super stylistics very few could replace
I'm that ill rap scholar never sweat the finances
Just taking out a bank loan big as my campus
these MC's need to stop taking their chances
why scrap when you know my arms stronger than Lances'
Touring France with these mad rappers locked in their stances
They thought they had a move until I blocked their advances

I'll be low key chillin rhymes, filling the whole sheet
feeling down loading on sizzlon so seek
students slash rappers songs dealing with no sleep
I'm still a cold thief when I'm stealing the show peeps

Get out this young brother with doubts
My tongue smothers the whack
The dub never uncovered the traps
So I'm trying to give light through these mic devices
Not that I'm perfect only Christ was viceless
But there's too many dealing with the life and crisis
All I want's a warm home and a wife that's righteous
we gonna get there y'all we gonna rock to it
we gonna rock to it, we gonna rock to it

We gonna rock to it, a freak freak to it, a to the beat to it, it's unique music
A rock rock to it, a freak freak to it, a to the beat to it, this is how we do it

I'm like the Biz Mark I write rap tunes in the bathroom
My influences are Black Moon and Pat Boone
I roll with a whole platoon of phat goons
Who keep the hair on their backs groomed with Vidal Sassoon

Pick up the phone just to get the tone
My bicep claim I gotta leg up, so when I walk the talk I high-step
As a fetus I kick rhymes upon their skins
Even back in 82 my ultra-sound was the jam

I just rock to it never get forced into nothing
but words like a mullet-cutting short on the front end
y'all life's more than cake, no offense to the ballers
but we all pay too much attention to dollars

Brainwashed yo I'm still learning how to be me
worth millions, I'd rather be freak, uniquely
no, I may never know myself completely
If I make it home well maybe then I'll meet me
just a capital b-boy like Beat Street and DC
rock to it while I take it easy come'on

we gonna rock to it, a freak freak to it,a to the beat to it, its unique music
a rock rock to it, a freak freak to it,a to the beat to it, it's how we do it
3x
