Survive
D.Beam Lyrics

You ready to kick some ass?
Are you prepared to take on whatever comes your way?

Turn up the music
Increase the volume of the music being played

I was at a jam the other night, I was feelin' real good so the feelin' was right
I was at a gathering recently, and the atmosphere was just right for me

I came to the party for a different kinda action, The next thing I know
I attended the event for a different reason, but then something unexpected happened

I was doin' a Michael Jackson, I was thrown off beat and my feet got tied
I was trying a dance move popularized by Michael Jackson, but I messed it up and got confused with the rhythm

And the sucker DJ just oughta be fired, He was flippin' and a slippin'
The DJ was terrible, and should lose his job. He was struggling to mix the songs smoothly

Even drawn back to, The Sucker DJ didn't know what he was doin'
Despite trying again and again, the DJ was unable to play the music properly

Then I said to my friends this ain't the place to be, Then the fellas only came
I shared my thoughts with my friends that this event was not worth staying. As a result, only the men remained

'Cause the ladies were free, Then we left the place before the next couple o' plays
Because the women didn't have to pay for the entrance, we decided to leave before the next set of songs started playing

My girl said to me, I'm glad we never paid, So I called Marley Marl on the very next day
My girlfriend was thankful that we didn't have to spend money to attend this event, so I contacted Marley Marl the following day

Then we cut a rap about the sucker DJ (echo)
We created a song about the terrible DJ

See, to be a DJ you gotta do your best, Have you're own kinda style, not like the rest
To be a good DJ, you have to put in maximum effort, and establish your unique style that stands out from the crowd

No jumpin' up and down, bendin' with your feet, 'Cause the music that you play Has to be your own beat
Don't just jump around, and move your feet randomly. As a DJ, you must create your own beats that are unique

So Marley Marl went down to take a test To see who could cut up music best
Marley Marl participated in a competition to determine who is the best at mixing music

They were all lined up and ready to spin, You could see in their faces that they wanted to win
All the participants were ready for the competition, and their eagerness to win was evident on their faces

Yes Marley took the test To become a DJ, We cut the music, went a somethin' this way
Marley Marl took the challenge to go from an aspiring DJ to an accomplished one. We stopped the music, and began something new

He cut the music with so much class, The Sucker DJ, was a bust on the ass
Marley Marl mixed the music elegantly, while the terrible DJ failed miserably

So when the time was up, they just couldn't' believe, What the man, Marley Marl Has just achieved
When the competition was over, the other contestants were amazed at how well Marley Marl performed

We get the people dancin', on a whackier jam 'Cause Marley Marl was one hell of a man
People start dancing crazily to the music played by Marley Marl, because he was an outstanding DJ

So to those DJ's that think you're the greatest Just stop look and listen 'cause you haven't heard the lastest (heard the latest)
If you think you are the best DJ, then you need to stop, take a good look at what's happening, and listen to the latest trends

My name is Crystal but they call me Dimples D, Ain't a female in the world can rap like me
My name is Crystal, but my stage name is Dimples D, and nobody can rap as good as I can

I got big brown eyes, holes in my cheeks, Keep in time with rap, every time I speak
I have big brown eyes and noticeable dimples on my cheeks. I can rap perfectly in sync with the beats

Yeah I can make you fall in love if you give me a chance, I ain't talkin' 'bout sex Or no kinda romance
I can make you love me if you listen to my music, but I'm not talking about sexual or romantic relationships

But it's my style, my charm, let me go on It's a chilly, it's a chilly, then it starts to get warm
My style, my charm, and my music need to be experienced. It's akin to feeling cold at first, but then slowly getting warm and comfortable

I'm five foot five, stayin' alive In this world Dimple D will sure enough survive
I'm only five foot five but full of energy, and I will always survive in this world, no matter what challenges come my way

Get down, get down, yeah let's get on down Get down, get down, music make you lose control
Let's dance and move to the beat. The music will make you lose control

Then we cut a rap about the sucker DJ (echo) see'mon, see'mon
We made another rap about the terrible DJ, and it echoes as we encourage everyone to join in

Then we cut a rap about the sucker DJ (echo) see'mon, see'mon Then we cut a rap about the sucker DJ (echo) see'mon, see'mon
We made more raps about the terrible DJ, and we repeat it, inviting everyone to join in

Then we cut a rap about the, cut a rap about the Cut a rap about the sucker DJ (echo)
We created and performed songs about the awful DJ, and we continue to do so

So listen party people while I got your attention, There's a few more things I'd like to mention
Listen to me, party people, while I have your attention because there are a few more things I need to say
