The Breaks

Clap your hands everybody

If you got what it takes

'Cause it's Nadanuf and I'm Kurtis Blow

And these are the breaks

(Woo) Ahaha, ha, ha, ha (Uh)

Ha, ahaha, ahaha, ahaha, ha (Right)

Ooh, ooh, ooh, haha, ha

Ooh, ahaha, ahaha, ahaha, ha (We got the breaks, woo)

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ha (For you jakes)

Haha, ahaha, ahaha, ahaha (Nadanuf is in the house)

Ooh, ooh, a-yes, yes, y'all, ahaha, ahaha (Ha, woo)

Ahaha, ahaha, ahaha

The Phor-Eleven about to dip out, 11:42 'bout to whip out

My crew 'bout to roll tonight

In the blue and gold Hummer, soon as I get ready

We're 'bout to move fast like Freddy, right

Chillin' in my crib, puffin' on a blunt

Lookin' for my gear, somebody pulled a stunt

Now what can I do, do to get away?

'Cause these types of breaks happen every day

On a late night creep, nowhere to go

That's the breaks, that's the breaks

And I just with a car that just got towed

That's the breaks, that's the breaks

I look into my closet, ain't got no clothes

That's the breaks, that's the breaks

I feel around my neck, ain't got no gold

That's the breaks, that's the breaks

Well, these are the breaks

Break it up, break it up, break it up

It's a quarter to twelve, about to dip outside

Oh no, five-oh, got the block ham tight

It's Friday night and I didn't get paid

That's the breaks, ain't got a dollar to my name

I got five on the what? And two on the who?

What we go gon' do? Got to keep the party live too

Gotta keep on keepin' on, what else can I say?

'Cause these types of breaks happen every day, uh-huh

My landlord's trippin' about the rent that's true

That's the breaks, that's the breaks

Five-oh on my block, sweatin' the curfew

That's the breaks, that's the breaks

Got five on it so I can get live

That's the breaks, that's the breaks

Got caught in my mom's crib puffin' la-la

That's the breaks, that's the breaks

'Cause these are the breaks

Break it up, break it up, break it up

Nadanuf is on the scene, we blowin' up the charts

And we makin' mad cream, we makin' mad cream

Nadanuf is on the scene, we blowin' up the charts

And we makin' mad cream (Babyboy)

Lemme tell you 'bout a story that broke me down

Treat a sister like Puff, tryna hold me down

Got my cheese in my pocket and I'm ready to dash

Go straight to the bank (Excuse me, we're closed), what do you think?

It's automatic, shorty got static in the front (No, y'all have my money, no, I'm not)

Then she tell me that my dollars doin' acrobatic stunts

Goin' through it, we all do it every day

Put your hands in the sky, rock on anyway

So throw your hands up in the sky

And wave 'em 'round from side to side

If you deserve a break tonight

Somebody say, "Alright" (Alright)

Alright (Alright)

(Ha) And you don't stop

And you don't quit (And you don't stop, uh, uh)

Rockin' on and on and on and on (Yeah, Nadanuf gettin' up now)

When you're waitin' on a check and you know it counts

That's the breaks, that's the breaks

Rushin' with it to the bank and then the check bounce

That's the breaks, that's the breaks

About to explode like anyone would

That's the breaks, that's the breaks

With force to set it off 'cause you up to no good

That's the breaks, that's the breaks

The breaks are real, the breaks are hard

That's the breaks, that's the breaks

The breaks even happen to movie stars

That's the breaks, that's the breaks

The breaks can come any time of day

That's the breaks, that's the breaks

I hate to say it, you can't face the breaks

That's the breaks, that's the breaks

And these are the breaks

Break it up, break it up, break it up

Ahaha, ha (Yeah)

Ha, ha, ahaha, ha, ha, ha, ahaha, ha

Ooh (Nadanuf '97, uh, uh, word), uh

Babyboy in the house, Livio (Uh, uh, uh)

Ooh, true that, true that (Soldier Blow representin', you know?), yeah

That's how we do when we do it, puttin' it down (Yeah)

You know what I'm sayin'? (Go, go, go)

Goin' through the breaks but we gon' keep pressin' on (Uh, uh)
