Lyrics

Haha, bring it on

Well let me show you, you didn't have a clue

Whatever false is true, cause this is how I do

Always coming smooth, when I show and prove

I gotta kick a style just to make your body move

If you had doubts, check the flow to make you bounce

It's the thoughts of a genius when you listen to my sound

It ain't profound, I rarely use it in my music

It speaks for itself so I don't have to prove it

All my siblings could hear things filled with knowledge

If you in high school or cooling at the college

I demolish, with the beauty and the beats

Cause all the negativity will just have to cease

Or stop, that's the power of my hip-hop

The top is where I'm headed, yeah I said it

So don't jock for your props cause I won't sweat it

But if you with it from the jump, you won't regret it

Have you ever wondered what was going down

In your hometown while the mass crack a frown?

Have you ever wondered what was going down

In your hometown, town, town?

Sometimes I wonder, cause I'm under a lot of pressure

With gangs, robbers, and child fucking molesters

Ain't nobody fresher on the M-I-C

I kick 16 bars on the solo creep

Cause it's The B, once again me and my friend

Kamaal for all of y'all, you know I had to grab the pen

Where do I begin? Oh I think I'll start here

We appear, flowing through your hemisphere

Well next up to bat is The B ripping tracks

Never coming rough and my styles is still phat

I keep it on the low cause the flow be going steady

Sometimes I gotta hold it in cause people ain't ready

Well I'm the holy, the one and only, Kamaal the Great

And if you ain't got the tape, you might be too late

Cause in the place to be, it's just B-Dog and me

We kicking out lyrics just so gracefully, but

Have you ever wondered what was going down

In your hometown while the mass crack a frown?

Have you ever wondered what was going down

In your hometown, town, town?

K on a plateau, with rap flows by the dozens

You coulda thought I wasn't, but talking don't mean nothing

Let me tell you something cause I know you feel the groove

I got the kind of beats that'll make your body move

But back on track, to some vocals and some raps

We been around the world and this is the comeback

To the west, the vibe is fresh and yes

We got beaches and girls and the weather is the best

But unless you haven't been you can't comprehend

It rarely rains in Porsche but for sure we feel the wind

Since a kid, my decision was precision

Tight techniques to coincide with the rhythm

I decided to write it, put it down in song mode

You know I drop it soon so it don't get old

But at night, it might get slightly cold

So I tightly hold my girl and put the world on froze, but

Have you ever wondered what was going down

In your hometown while the mass crack a frown?

Have you ever wondered what was going down

In your hometown, town, town?

I got the formula, I'm warning ya, I turned it up a notch

Watch how I put a stop to your props

Cause I'm for sure, you can't ignore

The vocals pumping through your pores

So get up off your ass and hit the dance floor

I'm very clever, in whatever I endeavour

The problem could be tough or getting rough like leather

This is how it goes down on the west now

Well there's finally a smooth MC so you must bow

Check it out, I take ya to another level

So bump the bass, adjust the treble

That might be helpful to you whack MCs

Now cut me some slack please

Cause on them corny styles, it's Kamaal and The B

It's '95 and I've arrived upon the scene

Didn't mean to intervene when we letting off steam

I meditate and create like the scriptures

I'm drawn like Picasso but some don't get the picture

Have you ever wondered what was going down?

Have you ever wondered what was going down?

Have you ever wondered what was going down?

Have you ever wondered what was going down?

Have you ever wondered what was going down?

Have you ever wondered what was going down?

Have you ever wondered what was going down?

Have you ever wondered what was going down?
