[E] Peace to Chuck

[P] Chuck D

[E] Yeah, uhh

You're not tellin em huh? Yeah

[Erick Sermon]

They go ohh and ahh when I jump in my car

People treat me like Kareem Abdul Jabbar

when I'm supreme rap star, they all know me

E.D., when I flash the greens on TV

MC's be robbin me, of my technique

The way I speak, the way I get down, the way I sound

And if you axe/ask me, they must be on the jock

of the innovator (one two), rock roll bounce to skater

[Parrish Smith]

OK fuck it, enough with the tight shit, grab the mic quick

Hollywood niggaz, put it down spit some hype shit

EPMD Erick and Parrish, Makin Dollars

with the rap scholars keep the show packed like funeral parlors

Deadly, murderous I know you heard of us

Holdin shit down on the block, nobody servin us (yeah son)

The E Double and Mic Doc, Boondox

Def Jam's off the meter yo, this shit is hot

Chorus: EPMD

[P] Never seen before, or heard before

The uncut raw

[E] I'm Erick Sermon

[P] and I'm Parrish Smith

(repeat 2X)

[Erick Sermon]

Check it, now I'm back with the flyest material

Mic Doc and E Dub the Grand Imperial

My mic's deadly, so I scratched off the serial

and stashed it, until I have to kill at will

Keep it movin, yes it's me in the flesh

it's no illusion, fuck around and catch minor contusions

Whatever, I'm Smokin Joe when it comes to rap

I'm a pro-fessional, Tiger Woods I'm good

[Parrish Smith]

Time to black out, no doubt, people wanna know about

the inside scoop with the group, and are they comin out

Damn skippy I'm tipsy, high like a hippie

Don't take drinks from strangers cause niggaz slip mickies

That's why I stay on Q/cue, like Omar Epps in J-U

I-C-E so chill and bust the debut

In rare form the false alarm's the Mic Don's

back in effect, snap that neck, the P's gone

Chorus

[E] Never say never

[P] What? EPMD's back together

[E] And if it gets warm take off the hot sweater

[P] Flip the ill slick flow (flow)

[E] Watch us throw (throw)

[P] down with the other brothers toe to toe

[E] And if ya slow ya blow

[P] That's why we comin with the ammo

[E] Yo ten year veterans

[P] A thousand rap sessions

[E] Yeah the hard rockers

[P] The crowd shockers

[E] The head knockers

[P] Yeah EPMD's off the rockers

Chorus 2X

[E] Yeah, uh, uh, uh-huh, yeah

[P] Dude whassup

[E] Yeah that was dope, word up
