Forth And Back
Slum Village Feat. Kurupt Lyrics

Rock to the rhythm, forth and back
Keep moving to the beat without stopping or slowing down

Forth and back, forth and back back back...
Moving back and forth repeatedly, maintaining the rhythm

Don't make no sense
Many rappers don't make logical sense with their lyrics

You ain't gotta grab the microphone to pay your rent
Rapping won't necessarily make money to pay for rent

It's too many, so-called MC's rappin
There are too many people calling themselves rappers

Put your shit down, you can't make it happen
Give up on rapping if you can't make it work

Continue, to do what you do
Keep doing what you're doing

So my crew can bring out the cool in you and you
My group can make you cooler with our music

Don't front on the S my man
Don't underestimate or ignore my group

What you do is thank God for the dammmmmn
Appreciate and be thankful for the good things in your life

The S.V. clique, yeah we it
My group is the Slum Village clique

Turn around and say what? And to rhyme against
Challenging others to try and come up with better rhymes

How dare when you front so {nigga} tell me what time it is
Don't pretend to be better than us, and acknowledge how good we are

It's time to stop the whack rhymin and stop grabbin your {penis}
Stop making bad rap songs and being inappropriate

This is for the {niggaz} who get freaky with it
This is for those who are creative and passionate about rap music

Cause it can get hectic, hectic
Making music is difficult and challenging

It get to the S.V. clique, rhymin's a fair connect
The Slum Village clique makes rhyming look easy and natural

Soldier just move it, keep movin it
Keep working hard and stay dedicated to the craft

This is the moment that you all been waitin fo'
This is the exciting moment that fans have been waiting for

The S is the {shit} c'mon, y'know
The Slum Village group is really great and everyone knows it

This is for the whack {niggaz} who don't know
This message is for those bad rappers who need improvement

That my crew is definitely the solid rock
My group is the foundation and cornerstone of real rap music

Don't make a, young {nigga} pull out a glock
Don't provoke us, or we might get violent

Cause my glock is my microphone
Rapping is my weapon and my tool to express myself

I had to put it down sometimes, what a {nigga} gotta do
Sometimes, you have to stop rapping and take care of other things

To convince the masses this is the dopest crew
To get everyone to realize how great we are

So when you criticize, you better make sure
If you're going to criticize, make sure it's justified

Two thumbs is up, {nigga} what~?! I think you oughta
You should really appreciate and enjoy our music

Rawwwwk to the rhythm, forth and back
Rock out to the rhythm and keep moving

Forth and back, see forth and back back back
Keep moving back and forth and don't stop
