Play It Kool
Kool G Rap Lyrics

I play it cool getting to tour just like a jazz player
I maintain a calm and composed demeanor while touring just like a skilled jazz player does on stage.

Your record player ain't nothing without the funky rhyme sayer
The record player is not of much value without someone who can produce dope rhymes to go along with it.

Cool G. Rap cause to the little I'm an idol
I am a role model or idol to the younger generation of fans who hold me in high regard.

Attacking the vital parts to maintain my title

The suckers panic but to the ladies I'm romantic
My opponents may get nervous or anxious, but when it comes to the ladies, I have a charming and romantic demeanor.

And gigantic just like the Atlantic ocean

As I flow in slow motion
I have a smooth and deliberate flow in my rhymes, taking my time to deliver each word with precision.

And I be cooking you suckers like tan lotion
I'm roasting my opponents or haters just like how they get cooked by the sun when they apply tan lotion to their skin.

The K-double-O-L, G-R-A-P, and P-O-L-O
This is my name and I am introducing myself with all the letters that make up my stage name.

Would like to say hello to you mellow fellow
I am greeting my fans in a friendly and mellow way who may be listening to my music.

What are you yellow? You're hiding like a coward
Are you scared or timid? Your behavior is that of a coward who is hiding from confrontation.

And I don't allow it, you get devoured
I won't tolerate your cowardice and will take you down or defeat you.

Cause you can't cope, cause I'm dope and you don't have
You can't handle or manage the competition, because I am too skilled and talented.

A prescription, so just walk like an Egyptian
You don't have the remedy or solution, so just walk away like the way Egyptians used to walk.

My instrumentals ain't up for rental
My instrumentals are not available for rent or hire as I own and control them exclusively.

But come and try em and if you want to buy em then I supply em

If you want to use my beats, you have to pay the price I demand or I will force you to comply.

You said you're ready like Freddie to battle me
You claimed to be prepared or confident like Freddie (Mercury) to face me in a rap battle.

But the real Freddie's Dead and I ain't Curtis Mayfield

All wise, with four I's/eyes like Mississippi

I just glide, these are the tales from the brain side
I am flowing smoothly, and these are the stories or experiences from my perspective or mind.

With lyrics and the beats I provide they collide
My lyrics and beats create a harmonious and powerful effect when combined.

To form a homicide, you get dragged in a big bag
The end result is a gruesome or deadly situation, and you will be captured or taken away.

Shell ? ricochet, so watch em zig-zag
Bullets will bounce or ricochet, so be prepared to dodge them as they move unpredictably.

Off angle, but I'm in shape like a triangle
I may be different or at an angle, but I am still sharp and in top form like a triangle.

I need a sucker to strangle, with my new single

All rhymes are terrifying, you're dying

When I hear the bell ring, I'm swinging head level
When it's time to start the rap battle, I'm ready and bringing my best rhymes to the table.

Burning your block, my rhymes hotter than Red Devil

So peel off, like a potato ("Cool")

On a bunch of stellar rhymes, so I just give em a Hawaiian Punch
They are consuming great rhymes, so I am hitting them back with something that packs a punch - Hawaiian Punch (a fruit juice brand).

And let em stagger, giving em lipstick and they Mick Jagger
