…Had dreams of fancy cars and limos,
And all I wanted was somebody to listen to my demo.
Erick Sermon, “Please Listen to My Demo,” from EPMD’s Unfinished Business, 1989

…Had dreams of fancy cars and limos,
And all I wanted was somebody to listen to my demo.
They smile in my face, behind my back they talk trash,
Mad and stuff because they don’t have cash.
The employees of the year, yeah we back to work.
I took time off, while other rappers got jerked.
And while you was bangin on tables, I was bangin Snow White.
My father always told me to wisen up, son.
Cause if you hung with nine broke friends, you’re bound to be the tenth one.
Redman ready to rock rough rhymes,
Renegade rapper, rip when it’s rhyme time.
Punk push a pen and pencil when I’m pissed,
Pack pistol posse, flow some more pro shit.
I clock G’s while you clock Z’s.
And I don’t smoke crack…I smoke MC’s.
Redman ready to rock rough rhymes,
Renegade rapper, rip when it’s rhyme time.
Punk push a pen and pencil when I’m pissed,
Pack pistol posse, flow some more pro shit.
The rap era’s outta control,
Brothers’ sellin their soul to go gold…
Going, going, gone, another rapper sold!
Long as I live large, life will be luxury,
Ladies in Lamborghinis…love is like luck to me.
EPMD in effect, I’m clockin’ mad green
Like Kermit the Frog, sloppy like Boss Hog,
Girl was runnin’ wild…ate her like a corn dog.
