paroles de chanson R.E.S.P.E.C.T. (a cappella) - 4th Avenue Jones

[Ahmad]
Ain't got a pit named Petey Snickareeno
Ain't got a house out in the hills right next to Chino
But I (what) think I got a flow meaner
Than any rap cat across the sea back to ol' Pasadena
Hittin' hard as Venus ask Serena
Can't wait 'til my mom can sport a beemer
I used to smoke too much weed with Martin Reamer
The homey told me chronic make your grass greener
But now I'm cleaner
Doin' six shows a week and be rockin' 'em all
Eyes on me like Times Square droppin' the ball
But y'all don't know me not out for paparazzi and all
I'm in it to win finish like a jockey and stall
Without the trophy before I had a plaque on the wall
I was a young fiend, rap was like a habit to call
Had a tall vision that's bigger than me sellin' tapes
Avenue will introduce you to God, music to elevate
Got sick and tired of seein' yellow tape
The ghetto's hard like when pushin' a bar that's full of metal weight
So I spread love and celebrate
Ain't gotta like us, you ain't gotta say nothin' to me, but never hate
[Chorus]
You don't have to say a word to me
But you will respect us certainly
You don't have to like the thing we do
Long as you respect 4th Avenue
[Ahmad]
Tena Jones what's up
[Tena J.]
While you bluff fakin' and actin'
Enough with the verbal attacks I got real skills to make it happen
Teena J. fresher than Frito Lay
You don't wanna see me k.o.
Cuss I do buss like your millimeter spray
Want apologies like I need to say
When I get wit y'all

We deliver like Catherine Zeta J.
So you sick sayin' you'll get with my clique
I like to see the day
This here ain't nothin' but a thang to me
Singin' heat with a bangin' beat
Comin' with something that you can't defeat
4th Ave and we playin' for keeps
Forget the critics what they say on the streets
Is all that matters
We tryin' to come up
Climbin' the ladder
It's more than just worse, I want it badder
That's why I'm steady puttin' in work, forget the chatter
Be havin' this song, me and the Avenue Jones, hot as Nevada
[Chorus]
[Jabu]
My teacher told me that my best bet
Was a dub on craps, so bet black on the roulette
Ironic ain't it, I'm bomb but without the chronic
Avenue 4th, we form like ionic bond
The homies know I never go slowly mashin'
Rip a mic and still pray to God same fashion
Life's another never-ending story, ask Sebastion
Wanna know about the music biz, don't know, pass man
I drop like, move smooth like spotlight
Follow, skipped amateur ripped Apollo
Hey now you're an emcee, get the show on, get paid
Too many days I sat, noticin' they tryin' to hold us back
We like the legend at the bottom, small but on the map
I bustin' third but still I ain't good to relay
I'm lookin' for Ram so he can teach me how to deejay
Like (hey) I'm only doin' what the spirit say
I know you fear it, but hear it in every lyric hey
So now, I've been nomadic since three
I voted Democrat and you don't gotta like me
[Chorus]
