LORDS OF THE UNDERGROUND - What I'm After lyrics

rate me

That's what i'm after tell me what i'm after

[Redman] (I'm after the gold then after that the platnium)

[x4]

[Mr.Funky]

Once again it's the real ill microphone enhancer

smoking mc's till i'm down from blunt enter

the mase is in my hand but i'm not afraid to shoot ya

nobody can see me high in da future

so you know that no one can ever hurt me

because i'm ill

(like what)

like herpies

and I really don't give a damn who you are

Mr.Funky man all hail i'm da funkular

now in 1985 when the funk started to rock

tryin to do the human beatbox like

(BOOM HAH HAH BOOM BOOM HAH HAH)

all up in da place you can spit in yo face

then when da beatbox start play

that's when I started rocking mic's

make you wack mc's wanna fight

because they alwayas try to battle Just to see who is da best

To see who is da best

so you know I have to roll on the quest

for what i'm after

[Course]

(I'm after the gold then after that the platnium)

Hip hop and props that's what what i'm after

(I'm after the gold then after that the platnium)

Stacks of those plaq's that's what were after

[Repeat]

[DOITALL]

If it's hip hop that makes yo knees knock

turn us up box

I know you peep da sound it's the lords on the block

it's da list now this is how I live now

making people get down to my funky sound

ever since I heard the sound I wanted to be down

here's my demo tape wont you please pass it down

so I can get paid and have thing's like I said

a car, a yacht, a house with a maid

but wow! slow down the party ain't that easy

oh my god I think I let that video dicive me

no matter as long as the rhymes are the phatter

I bet yo billboard has me top of da ladder

publishing like loving, I learded that from my cousin

write you on tour you'll see thousands like the dozens

and after all dat if yo games phat

all I want to see is da golden platnium plaq

[Course]

[Lord Jazz scrathes for a while]

[Mr.Funky]

Now it's 1995

and I finally got my foot in da door

got props I want more

cause i'm definitly not where I used to be

but i'm no where near where I wanna be

I wanna be able to go out and buy a golf range

and still walk away with change

until then there's no time to be wasting

so I gotta keep on chasing

[DOITALL]

Well!!! what i'm after that's simple

come on and peep the mental

this ghetto born kid blowin up on instrumentals

what's the matter oh I know you can't peep my pattern

my style is desined to shed light like a lantern

click click click now the light's directly on yo ear

if you peep da sound then run go tell a peer

what happined did you get locked by my rappin

you had to cause gold and the plat is what i'm after

[Course till fades]
