Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You don't know no real shit, ****
It's the real shit
This the original Cypress Hill shit, ****
We numb ****, ya don't feel shit, ****
You ain't on no real shit, ****
[Verse 2]
You don't know no real shit, ****
It's the real shit
This the original Cypress Hill shit, ****
We numb ****, ya don't feel shit, ****
You ain't on no real shit, ****
[Verse 3]
'91, Cypress Hill burst upon the scene
Three crazy gun totin' **** smokin' weed
Talkin' about life on records was the whole plan
So we put out The Phuncky Feel, but you were feelin' Kill a Man
That was about the time we was openin' up for Naughty
Didn't know shit, we was jus' tryin' to rock the party
[Verse 4]
'92, a year later, 'bout a million records sold
From doin' shows like Lollapalooza on the road
Buildin' up momentum, while spittin' deadly venom
Takin' pictures for High Times, me, Muggs and Sen
Chillin' with the Beastie Boys, smokin' lots of weed
But it was time to hit the studio for another LP
[Verse 5]
'93, Black Sunday hits with critical acclaim
Had a monster hit from Insane in the Brain
Topped the charts, held the spot, for six weeks to boot
It was a trip to note that we was the first ones to do it
In rap music, but it was a feat none the less
So we started gettin' paid and I stopped smokin' stress
[Verse 6]
You don't know no real shit, ****
This the original Cypress Hill shit, ****
We numb ****, ya don't feel shit, ****
You ain't on no real shit, ****
You don't know no real shit, ****
The real shit
This the original Cypress Hill shit, ****
We numb ****, ya don't feel shit, ****
You ain't on no real shit, ****
[Verse 7]
'94, still in the door
And we conquered many tours
With Rage against the Machine, House of Pain, and many more
Was even invited to Woodstock, some **** from the block
Called up Eric Bobo and half a million rocked
How could all this happen at 24 years of age?
Half a million bouncin' to your shit from off the stage
[Verse 8]
'95, I was alive and survived so far
Superstar, still tryin' to cope with bein' a rap star
'Cause that's the type of shit that can really affect your mental
This was evident, in the way I broke the tempo
With confusion and pain
I'm havin' illusions
And hence illusion
But I still kept my set up with the critics bein' abusive
Even the record company, they became elusive
When it comes to showin' support for the Cypress institution
[Verse 9]
'96, with no support, we were still makin' moves
Cypress Hill, in the summer, we were on the Smokin Grooves
But like every legendary clique, someone had to split
So the Dog left the house, shit was gettin' kinda thick
I was with the electric lady, we was talkin' about babies
But the groupies on the road, don't help me from misbehavin'
[Verse 10]
You don't know no real shit, ****
This the original Cypress Hill shit, ****
We numb ****, ya don't feel shit, ****
You ain't on no real shit, ****
The real shit
[Verse 11]
'97 was a trip, it was the year we killed the feud
Between us and Cube, over shit nobody knew
I know
The Dog came back home, but after Smokin Grooves 2
Chillin' with George Clinton and Erykah Badu
This wa a crazy time, we were flowin' off the boo
**** on stage, trippin' on the 'shrooms
[Verse 12]
'98 was kinda great, 'cause it felt just like before
We hit the studio, recorded Cypress Hill IV
But someone dropped the ball, as I still recall
'Cause it felt Cypress Hill got no support at all, no love
We did the last Smokin Grooves, but did it all with Sen
And the old chemistry just reared its head again
[Verse 13]
'99, I got to recline
Because there was no doubt
That the first year was a success
Of the Smoke Out
[Verse 14]
'99 was even better than the year of '98
And Skull and Bones was comin' out
Kickin' from the gate
[Verse 15]
2000, 15 million records sold
They broke the mold, but there's others along the road
But we still keep rollin' on from Heaven to Atlantis
Droppin' shit in English and makin' albums in Spanish
[Verse 16]
2001, goddamn, who knows what's in store?
Just as long as motherfuckers knows who's knockin' on the door
We remain un-jaded, and still we go unfaded
See how long we made it, and never been outdated
[Verse 17]
We ain't goin' out, motherfucker
You don't know what the deal is
That's right, fuck that
This big time Cypress Hill, motherfucker, runnin' things up here
[Verse 18]
You don't know no real shit, ****
This the original Cypress Hill shit, ****
We numb ****, ya don't feel shit, ****
You ain't on no real shit, ****
The real
[Verse 19]
You don't know no real shit, ****
The real shit
This the original Cypress Hill shit, ****
We numb ****, ya don't feel shit, ****
You ain't on no real shit, ****
[Verse 20]
The real, ****, ****, ****
This the original Cypress Hill shit, ****
****, ****
****
Cypress, ****
