Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Don't call it a comeback, I been here for years
I'm rocking my peers, put suckers in fear
Making the tears rain down like a monsoon
Listen to the bass go boom, explosion
Overpowering, over the competition I'm towering
Wreck this shop, when I drop these lyrics
That'll make you call the cops
Don't you dare stare, you better move
Don't ever compare
Me to the rest that'll all get sliced and diced
Competition's paying the price
[Verse 2]
I'm gonna knock you out, huh
Mama said knock you out, huh
I'm gonna knock you out, huh
Mama said knock you out, huh
I'm gonna knock you out, huh
Mama said knock you out, huh
I'm gonna knock you out, huh
Mama said knock you out, huh
[Verse 3]
Don't you call this a regular jam, I'm gonna rock this land
I'm gonna take this itty bitty world by storm
And I'm just getting warm
Just like Muhammed Ali, they called him Cassius
Watch me bash this beat like a skull
That you knew I had beef with
Why don't you riff with me, the maniac psycho
And when I pull out my jammy, get ready
'Cause it might go blaow
How you like me now?
The ripper will not allow
You to sit with Mister Smith, don't riff
Listen to my gear shift
I'm blasting, outlasting kinda like Shaft
So you could say I'm shafting
Olde English filled my mind
And I came up with a funky rhyme
[Verse 4]
I'm gonna knock you out, huh
Mama said knock you out, huh
I'm gonna knock you out, huh
Mama said knock you out, huh
I'm gonna knock you out, huh
Mama said knock you out, huh
I'm gonna knock you out, huh
Mama said knock you out, huh
[Verse 5]
Shadow boxing when I heard you on the radio
Uh, I just don't know
What made you forget that I was raw
But now I got a new tour
I'm going insane, starting a hurricane
Releasing pain
Letting you know, you can't gain or maintain
Unless you say my name
Rip it, kill it, digging and drilling a hole
Past the old goal
[Verse 6]
I'm gonna knock you out, huh
Mama said knock you out, huh
I'm gonna knock you out, huh
Mama said knock you out, huh
I'm gonna knock you out, huh
Mama said knock you out, huh
I'm gonna knock you out, huh
Mama said knock you out, huh
[Verse 7]
Shotgun blasts are heard
When I rip and kill at will
The man of the hour, tower of power
I'll devour
I'm gonna tie you up and let you understand
That I'm not your average man
When I got a jammy in my hand
Damn, ooh, listen to the way I slay
Your crew damaged, uh, damaged, uh
Damaged, uh, damaged
[Verse 8]
Destruction, terror, and mayhem
Pass me a sissy so, sucker, I'll slay him
Farmers (What?)
Farmers (What?)
I'm ready (We're ready)
I think I'm gonna bomb the town (Get down)
Don't you ever, never pull my lever
'Cause I explode
And my nine is easy to load
I gotta thank God
'Cause he gave me the strength to rock hard
[Verse 9]
Knock you out
Mama said knock you out, huh
I'm gonna knock you out, huh
Mama said knock you out, huh
I'm gonna knock you out, huh
Mama said knock you out, huh
I'm gonna knock you out, huh
Mama said knock you out, huh
