Rahzel & Slick Rick Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

All of you cock pullers are frontin'
Wave your arms around like you're some octopus or somethin'
To better ya, for any chick you want, I'm gettin' her
Rob people, mad ignorant, et cetera
Who the one to entertain and fume with?
Who you know breed humans can't be in the same room with?
Reefer sweet, wrap it up, free fix greet
Every rapper rap maggot underneath Rick's feet

Evicted, why you tryna find shit to lick with?
Even your kids tell you that you ain't shit to Slick Rick
Though you pretend to be glory
I'm number one, that's the end of the story
The black Clark Gable leave you numb
Every single one, frontin' on your label is a bum
Let me slow it down, that's enough of that
This I have to say, to you nothin' other rapper cats

From New York to Cali none'll fuck with
The awkward, you think Muhammad Ali used to talk shit?
Bing, this sure hit alone'll bury ya
And even if I got deported, I own America
From New York to Cali none'll fuck with
The awkward, you think Muhammad Ali used to talk shit?
Bing, this sure hit alone'll bury ya
And even if I got deported, I own America

He's so crazy, I smash rippin' up the place
Give the mack a taste, I wipe my ass with a rapper face
Cars come to a dead stop
Rain find ways not to drop on my head top
Tycoon rush at the richest
Even my complexion is a must have to bitches
Even without car, money to budget
I would have the most elegant apartment in the projects
You know what I mean? Bitches are in awe at the lingo
Know that Rick'll put an end to all rapper income
An old timer, lock up all vagina fields
France nor Italy can fuck with my designer skills
Sultan inferior, faultin' to where we are
Tryna find fault in superior
Let me slow it down, that's enough of that
This I have to say, to you nothin' other rapper cats

From New York to Cali none'll fuck with
The awkward, you think Muhammad Ali used to talk shit?
Bing, this sure hit alone'll bury ya
And even if I got deported, I own America
From New York to Cali none'll fuck with
The awkward, you think Muhammad Ali used to talk shit?
Bing, this sure hit alone'll bury ya
And even if I got deported, I own America

You lack the taste, hook stickin' 'em with
While degenerate like yourself make our race look ignorant
And your girlfriend wanna kiss and deploy
'Bout hittin' the groin' gets none of this tenderloin
Feet planted on deep black firmament
Bow, in the presence of who lead rap permanent
Like a lion rap rips a chunk of kids
You stunk, 'cause mortals ain't shit to conquer
Somebody said new pharaohs have appeared
How when everything I wore ten years ago you wear now?
I coulda murder heard a word out quick Rick stomp it kid
Hung to it, you complete bum to Rick
Source Awards, yeah, Rick every seminar
Even make Saddam Hussein tell me where the weapon are
Let me slow it down, that's enough of that
This I have to say, to you nothing other rapper cats

From New York to Cali none'll fuck with
The awkward, you think Muhammad Ali used to talk shit?
Bing, this sure hit alone'll bury ya
And even if I got deported, I own America
From New York to Cali none'll fuck with
The awkward, you think Muhammad Ali used to talk shit?

Bing, this sure hit alone'll bury ya
And even if I got deported, I own America

Line by Line Meaning

All of you cock pullers are frontin'
You are all pretending and exaggerating

Wave your arms around like you're some octopus or somethin'
Making exaggerated gestures to show off

To better ya, for any chick you want, I'm gettin' her
I can easily attract any woman you desire

Rob people, mad ignorant, et cetera
Engaging in criminal behavior without knowledge

Who the one to entertain and fume with?
Who can you have a good time and be upset with?

Who you know breed humans can't be in the same room with?
Who can produce individuals that others cannot tolerate?

Reefer sweet, wrap it up, free fix greet
Deliver marijuana discreetly and for free

Every rapper rap maggot underneath Rick's feet
All other rappers are insignificant compared to Rick

Evicted, why you tryna find shit to lick with?
You are searching for unworthy things to associate with

Even your kids tell you that you ain't shit to Slick Rick
Even your own children recognize Rick as superior

Though you pretend to be glory
Despite trying to seem impressive

I'm number one, that's the end of the story
I am the best, there is no further discussion

The black Clark Gable leave you numb
I, like a black Clark Gable, astonish and render you speechless

Every single one, frontin' on your label is a bum
Anyone pretending to be better than you on your record label is a failure

Let me slow it down, that's enough of that
Let's take a break from the boasting

This I have to say, to you nothin' other rapper cats
This is what I have to tell those other mediocre rappers
