Lyrics

Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
It's the hand that rocks the cradle
Yeah, get the [truck/fuck?] up, it's too late, so stop sleepin'
I'm sick of **** creepin' 'cause they jumpin' and they leapin'
To get in my spot 'cause I'm out and I'm hot
I love to rock the cradle 'cause I keep the bumbaclot
So hush, little baby, don't say a word
To those who sleep, I'm gonna kill 'em 'cause they nerds
So I'ma rock these punk babies to sleep
They freaks who can't speak 'cause they cradle was real weak
I get a chance, I'll break you with a crane
I'm insane, not okay, 'cause they brain is mary jane
I'ma rock your cradle, rock, rock your cradle
'Cause those who sleep must wanna die 'cause this one is fatal
I'ma rock your cradle, rock, rock your cradle
'Cause those who sleep must wanna die 'cause this one is fatal
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
It's the hand that rocks the cradle
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
It's the hand that rocks the cradle
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
It's the hand that rocks the cradle
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
It's the hand that rocks the cradle
Ayo knock-knock it over
I'ma knock, knock it over
Instead of rockin' a cradle I kick, kick it over
(Ooh, what?) They caught a bad one
You're damn right, because of you, I'm about to blast one
In the night, I'm spankin' more suckers than Joe Jackson (Go get the switch)
Because I am the rap assassin
I wake you up with the noise sorta like boom
You're just a vapor of this rhyme raper
Assaultin' more suckers than Louisville Sluggers
Smash like a cannonball, get ready for your downfall
You tried to ig' us, you didn't give props and respect
Until you caught us in the [vig?] gettin' wrecked
(How you comin'?) Appearin' with a vengeance
You talk junk 'cause you're lunch to all you sorry sucker chumps
To me kid you're just crumbs on a table
So don't sleep, with my hand I rock the cradle
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
It's the hand that rocks the cradle
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
It's the hand that rocks the cradle
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
It's the hand that rocks the cradle
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
It's the hand that rocks the cradle
Ayo, chumps, wake up, this ain't a front
I'm giving out skills with chills, so what you want?
I'm rockin' your boat, now you're gettin' all shaky
Ain't takin' no shorts, so you know you can't faze me
So get the heck up, it ain't no time for actin' lazy
It's 1993 and I'm 'bout to get crazy
I'm on my way to making big big bucks
So don't stand close because I just might bust
Oh, what the shucks, I'm flowing through my fronts
A shorty gettin' naughty, knockin' chumps with knucks, uh
So don't snooze or lose 'cause if you lose, you choose to be a fool
And I ain't got nothin' to prove to you
Tryna take me out and suck me dry 'til I'm ruined
You ain't gon' be able to do it
Don't think for a sec that I can't hold mines
But enough with the talk, just watch my record shine
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
It's the hand that rocks the cradle
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
It's the hand that rocks the cradle
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
It's the hand that rocks the cradle
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
Wake 'em up, wake 'em up
It's the hand that rocks the cradle
