Lyrics

This speech is my recital, I think it's very vital To rock a rhyme that's right on time It's tricky tricky, here we go It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time It's tricky, it's tricky, tricky, tricky, tricky It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time It's tricky, tr-tr-tr-tricky, tricky, tricky I met this little girlie, her hair was kinda curly Went to her house and bust her out, I had to leave real early These girls are really sleazy, all they just say is, "Please me" Or spend some time and rock a rhyme I said, "It's not that easy" It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time It's tricky, it's tricky, tricky, tricky, tricky (how is it D?) It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time It's tricky, tricky, tricky, tricky In New York the people talk and try to make us rhyme They really hawk but we just walk because we have no time And in the city, it's a pity 'cause we just can't hide Tinted windows don't mean nothin', they know who's inside It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time It's tricky, it's tricky, tricky, tricky, tricky (how is it D?) It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time It's tricky, tricky, tricky, tricky, tricky huh! When I wake up people take up mostly all of my time I'm not singin', phone keep ringin' 'cause I make up a rhyme I'm not braggin', people naggin' 'cause they think I'm a star Always tearin' what I'm wearin', I think they're goin' too far A girl named Carol follows Daryll every gig we play Then D dissed her and dismissed her, now she's jockin' Jay I ain't lyin', girls be cryin' 'cause I'm on TV They even bother my poor father 'cause he's down with me It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time It's tricky, tricky, tricky, tricky, tricky (how is it?) It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time It's tricky, tr-tr-tr-tr-tr-tr-tricky We are not thugs, we don't use drugs But you assume on your own They offer coke and lots of dope But we just leave it alone It's like that y'all, y'all, but we don't quit Y'all keep on Rock shock 'Cause this is it (is it...)
