Mama Said Knock You Out

C'mon man

And with the local news,

LL Cool J with a triumphant comeback

Don't call it a comeback

I've been here for years

I'm rocking my peers

Puttin' suckers in fear

Makin' the tears rain down like a monsoon

Listen to the bass go boom

Explosions, overpowerin'

Over the competition I'm towerin'

Wrecking shop when I write these lyrics

that'll make you call the cops

Don't you dare stare, you better move

Don't ever compare

Me to the rest that'll all get sliced and diced

Competition's payin' the price

I'm gonna knock you out

Mama said knock you out [repeat]

Don't you call this a regular jam

I'm gonna rock this land

I'm gonna take this itty-bitty world by storm

And I'm just gettin' warm

Just like Muhammed Ali

They called him Cassius

Watch me bash this beat like a skull

That you know I've beef with

Why do you riff with me

The maniac psycho

And when I pull out my jammy get ready

Cause I might go Blaw!

How you like me now?

The ripper will not allow

You to get with Mr. Swift or Rift,

Listen to my gears shift

I'm blasting, I'm blasting

Kinda like shaft, so you can say I'm shafting

Oh, English filled my mind, and I came up with a funky rhyme

I'm gonna knock you out

Mama said knock you out [repeat]

Shadow boxing when I heard you on the radio, UH

I just don't know

What made you forget that I was raw

But now I gotta new tour

I'm going insane

Startin' the hurricane

Releasin' pain

Lettin' you know

You can't gain or maintain

Unless you say my name

Rippin'

Killin'

Diggin' and drillin' a hole

Pass the Old Gold

I'm gonna knock you out

Mama said knock you out [repeat]

Shotgun blasts are heard

When I rip and kill at will

The man of the hour, tower of power

I'll devour

I'm gonna tie you up and let you understand

That I'm not your average man

When I gotta jammy in my hand

Damn!

Oooooh!

Listen to the way I slay

Your crew

Damage (repeat)

Destruction, terror, and mayhem

Pass me a sissy so sucker I'll slay him

Farmers (WHAT)

Farmers (WHAT)

I'm ready (WE'RE READY)

I think I'm gonna bomb a town

Get down

Don't you never, ever

Pull my lever

Cause I explode

And my nine is easy to load

I gotta thank God

Cause he gave me the strength to rock Hard

I'm gonna knock you out

Mama said knock you out [repeat]
