I Got It Goin' On
Us3 Lyrics

Hey yo check it out I got a hype rhyme for ya
Listen up, I have a really good rap for you

That I'll rock from London England to the boondocks of Georgia
I can perform my rap anywhere, from big cities in England to small towns in Georgia

Intelligent, benevolent, super, all the qualities of H-I-see the alley-ooper
I'm really smart, kind, and good at basketball like a famous player named Magic Johnson

My main man and me we've been cool since day one
I've been friends with my best friend since we were both very young

Scoopin' all the fly girls, havin' all the fun
We used to date a lot of attractive girls and had a lot of fun doing it

Sport the dope threads and the hundred dollar kicks
We wear really cool clothes and expensive shoes

Makin' power moves so get off my
We're doing important things so leave us alone

Nah I won't say it, 'cause it's crystal, it's clear
I won't swear or use bad language because it's not necessary to get my point across

I get the job done each and every year
I am successful every year

Back in school I used to act the fool
When I was in school, I used to misbehave and do silly things

But I rocked an A average so everything's cool
But despite that, I still got good grades so everything was fine

Tool, my pencil, the mic's my utensil
My pencil is to write with and my microphone is my instrument to perform with

I wreck the mic check and you can write that in stencil
I am very good at performing and you can write that down permanently

So you wonder why I made it and your shit is goin' wrong
You might wonder why I am successful and you are not

Hey yo troop, I got it goin' on!
But the reason is simple, I am just really good at what I do

I'm like a mad man when I get the mic in my hand
I become very energetic and enthusiastic when I perform with my microphone

I run loose at the mouth 'cause I really don't give a damn
I talk freely and boldly because I don't care what others think

I'm on a mission, chasin' a dream
I have a goal that I am working hard to achieve

When I hear the beats thump I shake like a fiend
When I hear the music, I become very excited and dance a lot

And when the notes are blue I do the do with the Us3 crew
When the music is a certain style, I perform with my music group

Right in the back log, Geoff and Melle Mel y'all
Geoff and Melle Mel are members of my music group

Chillin' on the track boy, mixin' up the schizmo, keepin' shit in fit form
We are making music and making sure everything is sounding good

They got it goin' on
My music group members are also very talented and successful

Patterns in the poems get you open like a spliff
The way I construct my rap lyrics is very captivating, like the way a marijuana cigarette affects you

If you take a sniff you might end up like a stiff
If you inhale too deeply, you might die

'cause it's funky, a hip-hop junkie is what I am
My music is really cool and I love it

Straight from Brooklyn with a gun in my hand
I am from Brooklyn and I am tough

I'm just kiddin', or should I say fibbin' or bare faced lyin'
I was joking about having a gun

It doesn't matter, you know what I'm implyin'
It's not important, you know what I mean

And if you still don't know what's goin' on
And if you still don't understand

Yo G I got it goin' on!
I am just really good at what I do, bro

Zoom-ga-zoom zoom-ga-zoom-ga-zay
I am feeling really good and energetic

Sit back relax and I'll make your day
Don't worry and just enjoy my music

Radical concepts that's my choice
I have unique and unconventional ideas

Freak it to the music and flow through my voice
I let the music inspire my rapping and singing

So let's face it, it's time to get back to the basics
We need to simplify things and get back to the fundamentals

Sing a simple song that goes on and on and on
Create a catchy and easy-to-remember song

I'm climbin' to the top just like King Kong
I am becoming very successful and powerful

And guess what? I got it goin' on!
And the reason is simple, I am just really talented
