Do It Again
harmony.fm: Steely Dan Lyrics

Let's do it again
Repeating a successful endeavor

Sweet breeze in the summer time
Enjoying the pleasant weather of summer

We're makin' everything alright
We're fixing everything and making it better

Always keep ya hypnotized
Keeping you captivated and interested

We keep ya feelin' oh so high
Making you feel happy and euphoric

Like its 1999
Revisiting an old time when life was good

All over again with all of my hustlers, soldiers by my side
Starting anew with my loyal supporters by my side

Been a long, long ride, I'm still amazed how the time fly by
Reflecting on a lengthy journey and how quickly it passed

A lot of my niggas didn't make it to see this
Many of my friends didn't survive to experience this moment

But I'm not gonna cry
I'm not going to grieve excessively

We slammin' doors on the caddy coupe
Closing the doors of the luxury car firmly

After bar groupin'
Meeting up with friends after visiting a bar

When them niggas was out there shootin'
When my associates were shooting guns on the streets

Drinkin' 40's on the roof
Drinking 40-ounce beers on the roof

Went from zeros to six figures
Moved from having no money to having a significant amount

To seven figures and better
Then, having seven or more figures in wealth

Niggas determined to get on the level
Motivated individuals who want to succeed

Down for whatever, chasin' that chedda
Will do anything to obtain money

Ride anywhere necessary, the celebration is necessary
Traveling to places and celebrating success is important

It's a hard load to carry
Success has responsibilities and challenges

But that there was temporary
However, this condition is not permanent

I let it relax sometime
I take a break from the stress

Just chill out with my money
Relaxing and enjoying my wealth

Then when Layzie Bone is at it again, another summer
When Layzie Bone releases new music, it's like another summer

Lets have a ball nigga and keep this one blazin'
Enjoy ourselves and keep the good times going

Hey they thought it was over
People assumed that our group was no longer relevant

The bone thugs n harmony was finished
They believed Bone Thugs-n-Harmony was done making music

But they, they must of forgot, they forgot how much I rapper like I
They underestimated me and forgot my rap skills

Sat back recline, and trained my mastermind
Relaxed and focused on improving my creativity

Came up with a faster rhyme
Developed a new and improved rap style

In time this dogg has got you hypnotized
I have captivated and fascinated my audience

So I gotta ask them how in the hell we gon fall off
I have to ask how is it possible for us to fail

When we got half of this industry swangin' from my balls
When so many people are influenced by our success

Me and dawgs
My associates and I

Untouchable niggas, could never see us, never be us
Opponents have no chance of defeating us or being like us

Won't even get close enough to try to defeat us
They won't even attempt to challenge us

Niggas that have they come learn with the milla-meta, meta
People who come to us learn about the genre and our influences

Loudest niggas you ever gonna see ah
We are some of the most prominent and significant figures in the industry

Talk and get served and you'll that we be it, runnin' the game
If you try to talk smack, you'll regret it because we are in control of the industry

Still doin' our everyday thangs, bang
We continue to do what we've always done

So I really hope you got you game up
I hope that you are prepared and up to the challenge

Cause we comin' hard so don't get envolved
We are approaching with full force, so don't engage if you can't handle it

If y'all ain't ready to bring ya gangsta
If you aren't prepared to bring your courage and strength

You feelin' we slippin' huh
You think that we are losing our edge

You think that we missin' the 1st of the month
You think that we aren't making as much money as we used to

10 years we done been here
We have been in this industry for ten years

We spending them thangs and bringin' them guns yup
We are spending our money and carrying weapons for protection

We better get it, we don't have that ammunition
We have to obtain the resources we need to succeed

But I bet we takin' it there
But I'm confident that we'll get there

Got us a mac if you wanna ride I ain't braggin' but I keeps it real
We have a firearm, and I'm not bragging, but I'm honest about it

You know them thug niggas is gonna bring something
You know that we will bring something significant

That everybody gonna feel
That everyone will be able to perceive

You ridin' and rollin' and smokin' and bumpin'
You are cruising, enjoying and listening to some music

Yeah that's how I live
That's how I like to live

And I been here so I live here
I have been in this industry for so long that I am well-established

Won't put me out my crib
I won't let anyone push me out of my comfort zone

My address is the game and my second it is the hood
The industry is my primary concern, and the neighborhood is secondary

We comin' back like cool water and soda
We are returning like a refreshing drink

A couple of shakes and we hittin' the hood with that heart
We will get ready and soon dominate the industry again with vigor

Do it again we gotta ?
We have to repeat our past success

Part of the thugsta law back to nothing
We are part of the thug lifestyle, and we started with nothing

Nothing bumpin' goin to jump
Things were slow at first, but they will soon pick up

I did it then and that is where I'm from
I succeeded in the past and that's where I come from

And I can do it again and again and again and again
I can repeat my success many times
