It's Tricky 2003 (feat. Jacknife Lee) [Radio Edit]

This speech is my recital, I think it's very vital

To rock (a rhyme), that's right (on time)

"It's tricky" is the title, 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

They say I'm overrated, musicians really hate it

My name is one, I'm number one, it's very complicated

You might think it's a snap, a snap to make a rap

Well if you do me in, my crew will tell you that's some crap

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, (how is it D?) 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, 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 (here we go)

It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time

It's tricky, (how is it D?) Tricky (tricky) tricky (tricky)

It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time

It's tricky, tricky (tricky) tricky (tricky) huh!

It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock

It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock

It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock

It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock

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 Darryl 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, (how is it?) 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-tr-tr-tricky (tr-tr-tr-tricky) tr-tr-tr

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

You keep on (rock!) Shock 'cause this is it (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 (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, prr
