Lyrics

[Intro]
Places and spaces I've been (I've been to places before)
Places and spaces I've been (Yeah, you know, Pete Rock and C.L. Smooth for '94)
All the places and spaces I've been (Straight from the East Coast, you know what I'm sayin')
All the places and spaces I've been (That's how we do it, peace to the West Coast, my man, C.L., come on)
[Verse 1]
Welcome to the zone where the strong only survive
The places I drive, all the gangsters can't stay alive
Take my universal journey through the jungles of the hardest town
Where my brothers lay their life down
You want somethin' to play with?
Go find yourself some toys, when you mistake these grown men for little boys
More real than what is real, so feel 'em sendin'
Compared to God, with no beginnin' and we'll have no endin'
My blessed rings are down with the King's revelation
Had heard me on the Run-DMC's reincarnation
Child abuse, women loose, robbery and triple homicide
Everywhere this black man reside still
Check the monologue, I'm off a 6AM jog
To regain my powers, do a set before the showers
I'm prime for the summertime, the big time bowler
But any season, no reason we can't take it over
[Chorus]
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you feel it?)
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you feel it?)
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you?)
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you feel it?)
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you?)
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you feel it?)
[Verse 2]
Are you ready for the legendary, crazy rugged, rated raw?
Known to be the smooth who sat by the door
Furthermore, for you and I to click, here's the stats
Take all that dirty money, set to pot doors and laundromats
You love to gamble now, we open up an after-hours spot
Twenty stacks with the Guinness, rollin' jackpot
Members only, playin' pool like Willie Masconi
With a tenderoni chattin' 'bout the GS I'm battin'
I'm Patton-bound with the sound of a general
Fully supplied by my ghettofied residential
We come to rebuild to turn off the heat now
Hopin' we could take it back to Huguenot Street
Palled around the screen TV, watchin' the fight
Tonight, 'cause if it ain't rough, it ain't right
Ink tents in all of my circumference I connect
Now demandin' all types of respect, can you dig it?
[Chorus]
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you feel it?)
All the places and spaces I've been (Can-can you feel it?)
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you?)
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you feel it?)
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you?)
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you feel it?)
[Verse 3]
Travellin' to warp speed, we come to the peak
Like a missile, I probe and seek, and many can't critique
My physique is still solid, chiseled down to the very last compound
I'm tryin' that chin, fool, where you been?
Still slidin' girls in soon as pops fall asleep
His game tight, set to flip a shorty late night
I like rocks and rubies, condo shows and cuties
The hottest cars and the strongest drinks at the bars
This is one of those joints that make you stand by the exits
'Cause every time I'm dappin', somethin' crazy happens
Keep my tool in my baggy jeans, rollin' with sneaker fiends
Who got a life-term workin' for the firm
My labor's fruit off of business as usual
Plus my two-clan band is makin' me a wealthy man
Now from where I stand, believe it's not a game
Pete Rock and C.L. Smooth's a household name
[Chorus]
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you feel it?)
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you feel it?)
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you feel it?)
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you feel it?)
[Bridge]
Places and spaces I've been (Can you feel it?)
Nothin' can save ya
Places and spaces I've been (Can you feel it?)
No-no-nothin' can save ya
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you feel it?)
No-no-nothin' can save ya
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you feel it?)
No-nothin' can save ya
[Chorus]
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you feel it?)
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you feel it?)
All the places and spaces I've been (Ca-can you, can you feel, feel it?)
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you feel it?)
[Outro]
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you feel it?)
All the places and spaces I've been (Nothin' can save ya)
All the places and spaces I've been (Can you, can you feel it?)
All the places and spaces I've been (Nothin' can save ya)
All the places and spaces I've been
