Where it all started

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky and Mike

Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky and Mike

The beginning of a dream

Where our ideas were born

(Tell em Ricky) To understand what this really means

Let's set the record straight

Once and for all and I'll tell you

'Cause other people imitate

And try their best to recreate

This is where it all started from

So they only perpetrate

But they can never duplicate

This is where it all started from

(Yo, it's on you Ron) It's nice to be the original

That all the counterfeits like to bite off

We only take it as a compliment

When they copy some of our material

To stay the best among the rest

We work to keep our movements fresh

This is where it all started from

You listen up dap instead of being clones

Why don't you think of something on your own

This is where it all started from

(Now there's one more thing we think you should know)

Don't be a victim to the wanna be

This is where it all started from

(A fake, a fake)

'Cause no other's ever gonna be (like us)

This is where it all started from

(Take that)

Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky, and Mike

Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky, and Mike

(We're cool) Cool it coooool it now

Let's sweeten it up

Candy girl

Count it off... 1... 2... 1... 2

But you better not, better not

Count me out

'Cause other people imitate

And try their best to recreate

This is where it all started from

So they only perpetrate

But they can never duplicate

This is where it all started from

To stay the best among the rest

We work to keep our movements fresh

This is where it all started from

You listen up dap instead of being clones

Why don't you think of something on your own

This is where it all started from

Yo wait a minute! Hold up! Wait! Stop! Huh! You didn't know we was coming back like this on 'em my brother.
