Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tr-tr-tr-tricky
Trick-trick-trick-tricky
Tricky, it's tricky, tricky
It's not that easy
[Verse 2]
Tr-tr-tr-tricky
Trick-trick-trick-tricky
Tricky, it's tricky, tricky
[Verse 3]
In New York, the people talk and try to make us rhyme
They really hawk but we just walk because we have no time
And in the city it's a pity 'cause we just can't hide
Tinted windows don't mean nothin', they know who's inside
[Verse 4]
It's very complicated
Tricky, tricky, tricky, tricky
It's very complicated
Tricky, tricky, tricky, tricky
[Verse 5]
It's very complicated
Tricky, tricky, tricky, tricky
It's very complicated
Tricky, tricky, tricky, tricky
[Verse 6]
They say I'm overrated
It's not that easy
They say I'm overrated, they say I'm overrated
It's not that easy
[Verse 7]
They-they say I'm overrated
My name is Run, I'm number one
It's very complicated
[Verse 8]
Tr-tr-tr-tricky, tricky
But we don't quit
Tr-tr-tr-tricky, tricky
It's very complicated
[Verse 9]
It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time
It's tricky
It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time
It's tricky
[Verse 10]
Tr-tr-tr-tricky
Trick-trick-trick-tricky
Tr-tr-tr-tricky
Trick-trick-tricky
[Verse 11]
It's very complicated
Tricky, tricky, tricky, tricky
It's very complicated
Tricky, tricky, tricky, tricky
[Verse 12]
It's very complicated
Tricky, tricky, tricky, tricky
It's very complicated
Tricky, tricky, tricky, tricky
[Verse 13]
You might think it's a snap
It's not that easy
You might think it's a snap, you might think it's a snap
It's not that easy, it's not that easy
[Verse 14]
You-you might think it's a snap
Well, if you do, me and my crew will tell you that's some crap
[Verse 15]
It's tricky, tricky
But we don't quit
It's tricky, tricky
It's very complicated
[Verse 16]
It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time
It's tricky
It's tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that's right on time
It's tricky
[Verse 17]
Tr-tr-tr-tricky
Trick-trick-trick-tricky
Tricky, it's tricky, tricky
It's not that easy
[Verse 18]
Tr-tr-tr-tricky
