Check one two and
Check one two and
Yeah, going out to Showbiz Wiz, Word up Finesse
Jazzy Jay, my man Q-Tip, K-X
Yo, check it out
Check one two, no one to run to
I catch 22, when I began to
Express myself on the lyrical tip
Aiyo, I'm dipped and I'm smooth as miracle whip
But some try to flip, and claim I'm not legit
Say I need to quit, "Aiyo, he's on some other shit"
Yeah, but I grab your attention
And bask in wealth, aiyo, I'm something else
The sound is raw, don't need a million samples
The kids just love it, next year my budget
Will be much fatter, because of my platter
See, I'm the flavor in the hip-hop batter
Schooled in the trade so I'm gonna stay paid
Made in the shade from the tracks that I laid
Like the golden goose, and it's good for the gander
On the DL, don't need propaganda
So put that in your pipe and smoke it
I took a blues break and I broke it
See, I'm swift with the words and the verbs and the pronouns
Yeah, it's Diamond D with the dope sound
That you hear when it's pumping in the Benzie
From Edenwald on down to McKinley
I pay the bills from the use of my lingo
Don't try to play me or you better play bingo
Or Monopoly, buy Milton Bradley
I had to school another brother, but had he
Only took a second, and checked the track record
He would've seen that I'm solid
Huh, so gather round, there's a new omelet in town
Influenced by James Brown
It's Diamond D with the sound that pumps
And like Bambaataa, I won't fake the funk
Peace to Master Rob and the Ultimate Force
The 90's are here and we're on the right course
With the flavor that you savor and you know that it's true
Check one two
Check one two and you don't quit
Check one two and you don't quit
Check one two and you don't quit
Check, check one two and you don't quit
Check it out
I get hype when I kick the ballistics
And get paid from the use of my linguistic
The style is dope even though it's simplistic
Soda breaks me out so now I drink Mistic
After rest I listen to the Stylistics
Break down rappers as if they had cystic
Fibrosis, never snacking on a Hostess
Or pork rinds, nah, none of that swine
Word got around that my shit is booming
It ran through the Bronx just like Paul Newman
Now everyone can get a sample of the skills that won't trample
When I build an example of the will that's stronger than Samson
See, I'm the champ, son
When I relax, I'm off to the Hamptons
Compare the sound to another and let's see
I slam shit up like Wayne Gretzky
So hey baby, what's happening? Yeah
It's Diamond D with the verbs and the acronyms
Sing a simple song like Sylvester Stallone
And I'll catch you out there like Rick's a roam
Huh, mature enough to be on my own
And all my beats are stone to the bone
So grab a chair and sip on some choc-o-wotz, see
I stimulate your brain like a game of Yahtzee
Yeah, the new Jack with the new rap
How'd you do that, Diamond D?
Because their styles are for the birds
By any name that you ever heard
I find it quite interesting
You know, but it doesn't mean a thing
Yeah, I flip styles the way you flip a flapjack
It's Diamond D with the fat tracks
Originality, my concepts are endless
Straight up grip, I'm strictly stupendous
My words hug a beat like a pair of vice grips
So don't slip 'cause you might slip, peace
Check one two and you don't quit
Check one two and you don't quit
Check one two and you don't quit
Check one two and you don't quit
Check one two and you don't quit
Check one two and you don't quit
Check one two and you don't quit
Check one two and you don't quit
