Lyrics Gotta Be Dope (feat. A.F.R.O & DJ Jazzy Jeff) - R.A. the Rugged Man
Aw
shit,
one
two
- yo
Yo
back
up,
nigga,
back
up
- yo
The
one
in
particular
bringing
the
Funk
in
the
flavor
the
way
that
I
rhyme
And
I
run
a
perimeter,
speaking
it
funny,
I'm
beatin'
'em
dumb,
and
I'm
takin'
their
life
And
I
be
the
one
to
beat
'em
in
a
game
of
Scrabble,
wonder
why
they
thinking
that
I'm
ever
so
nice
And
I
be
the
one
to
never
get
caught
up
in
a
Scandal,
'cause
you
know
the
FRO
just
so
precise
And
what
I
be
doing
impossible,
I'ma
abolish
like
all
of
'em
when
the
button
is
pressed
I
give
it
the
throttle,
And
all
of
you
will
not
see
tomorrow
when
it's
sudden
death
I
be
the
one
to
give
it
all
I
got,
I
run
it
up
into
a
speed
to
anybody
tryna
copy,
gettin'
smacked
And
then
I'm
ready
for
the
battle,
any
moment,
any
minute
I'ma
turn
into
a
killer
any
second,
I'ma
snap
And
I'ma
get
into
a
mood,
and
everybody
better
stay
away
or
move
'Cause
anybody
getting
caught
up
in
the
show
And
then
I
hit
'em
with
a
strike,
and
then
they
bleeding
on
the
floor
And
then
they
gotta
be
aware
that
they
was
fuckin'
with
the
FRO
And
any
minute
I'm
ready,
spittin'
the
heavy
and
I'm
deadly
I'm
jetting,
and
I'ma
make
it
on
a
setting
of
fast
flow
Sending
a
lyrical
melody,
giving
it
a
felony
Fuck
is
you
telling
me?
You
better
take
your
rap
notes!
I'm
gonna
give
it
some
breath
from
all
of
my
rhyming
and
codes
I'm
gonna
give
it
some
rest,
But
I
deliver
my
best,
time
to
let
it
be
told
When
I
be
spitting
my
best,
I'm
in
an
intricate
zone
When
I
belittle
your
set,
putting
your
riddle
to
rest
You're
not
defying
my
flow
Yo,
Long
as
I'm
living,
Never
be
the
end
of
the
era,
came
with
the
vendetta
We
keeping
it
80s,
I'm
tougher
than
leather
The
ladies
are
loving
me,
bigger
and
deffer
Like
Peter
the
Piper,
been
picking
the
pepper
I
get
it
to
give
it
a
cervical
injury
Kickin'
the
walls
when
I
lived
in
the
uterus
Fetus
removing
and
doin'
the
stewardess
The
Cooker,
The
Butcher,
Vanilla
Magilla
Gorilla
the
villain
the
criminal
killa'
Attila
the
Hun
with
the
gun,
the
menace
to
the
public
I'll
pummel
a
puppet,
political
pundit
The
better
the
battle,
the
inability
to
meddle
with
the
better
veteran
The
heroin,
the
medicine,
the
venom
with
the
menacing
A
regiment
of
better
men,
they
better
get
'em
in
the
tenement
I
hit
'em
in
the
head
again
And
Lennon
with
the
Beatles
singing
'Let
it
be',
the
legacy
The
enemy
to
'live
a
little',
bit
and
when
I
hit
'em
With
the
minigun:
the
penalty
to
get
them
beheaded
The
son
of
zebedee
with
the
negative
energy
identity
They
wanna
get
rid
of
us,
I
get
it
keeping
it
coming,
the
vigilante
Get
it
the
medical,
the
beat'll
be
drumming
Gimme
the
record,
The
sicker
the
wigga
deliver
the
gunnin,
Militant
in
the
beginning
with
the
military
bucking
Did
a
SHINING,
THE
KILLING
the
kid'll
be
another
Kubrick
And
he
givin'
the
KILLER
the
Kiss,
diggin'
the
dick
in
the
ditch
Livin'
to
resist,
it
a
be
a
liberty,
a
genie
givin'
it
a
wish
Fuck
the
gibberish
gibbery
fast
rappin'
too
quick
What
happened
to
the
boom
bip,
what
you
think
you
a
Fu-Schnick?
You
in
the
ocean
with
sharks,
the
Moses
closin'
ocean
parts
I'll
burn
you
like
Joan
of
Arcs,
I
sit
you
down
like
Rosa
