OG Kid Frost
Rough Cut
[Intro]
Break, break! Break!

[Verse 1]
It's now time to lay a rap about the cold hard streets
People strugglin' hard, just tryna make ends meet
I just stand tough, hold down my beat
Never understand the meaning of the word 'defeat'
So you say it's like that and that's the way it is
But when I'm on the microphone it goes somethin' like this
Body-breakin', booty-shakin', the money for the makin'
You just put it in my pocket, 'cause you know I gotta take it

[Chorus]
It's rough, it's tough
Let me see if you can hack my stuff
It's rough, rough (break!)
It's rough, it's tough
We gonna rock you till you get enough, it's rough

[Verse 2]
Russians got a thing about shooting down planes
They did it before, now they're doing it again
Can't you see that this world is comin' to an end?
I wish that everyone would just go make friends
You're tellin' me shit about the friendly skies
But to me it's all just a big pack of lies
Sit at your TV set, get all hypnotized
But buddy, it's about time that you realized
[Chorus]
It's rough, it's tough
We gonna rock you till you get enough, it's rough
It's rough, so tough
Let me see if you can hack my stuff, it's rough, rough

[Bridge]
My friends, several years ago...
(...it's star time!) (Caldonia!)

[Verse 3]
So you tried to stay on the good side of the law
But then you was findin', it ain't no fun at all
You make one mistake and you're behind the brick wall
Told you sooner or later you would take the fall
Thought you was bad 'cause you joined the gang
But let me tell you, pretty boy, you've just been had
'Cause your homeboy, he didn't wanna do no time
While you do your thing, he dropped the dime
Is this something you can call a real true friend
Turned around and backstabbed you in the end
Now he's on the outside looking in
There's a frown on your face, a grin on his
You see, things like these happen every day
I know there is a a better way
Instead of being on the dead end with nowhere to go
Search for your pot of gold at the end of the rainbow
[Chorus]
It's rough, it's tough
Let me see if you can hack our stuff, well it's rough
It's rough, so tough
We gonna rock you till you get enough
Well, it's rough, rough, tough, tough...

[Verse 4]
So now you heard of the negative part
And you wanna see if you make a brand new start
Let me tell ya exactly like my mama told me
Be a doctor, be a lawyer, get a PhD
Making your mark on this world – it's def hard to do
So wise up, kids, and stay in school
So when after you learn your ABC's
You can come and rock the party with me
Well, I'm Kid Frost, and that's my name
And when I go to a party, I can run my game
With the utmost ease, I tell you right now
If you got that funky feeling and you're wondering how
My rhymes are on, they're never off
I just get on the mic and never wanna stop
I'm so full of action, the ladies' attraction
I won more awards than Michael Jackson
Breakdancers, romancers
Ain't got no time for no second chancers
And when the sucker MC's try to be like me
Let me tell you now, boy, how it's gonna be
If you need some help you better call your mom
You better stick to your hat like bubble gum
'Cause the K-I-D F-R-O-S-T
Kid Frost, better known as [?]
Yeah, Kid Frost, the rappin' boss
Guaranteed to make your body wanna twist and toss
Loosen up your back, so then you hear me fine [?]
If you ain't lookin' good, boy, your woman is mine
But before I get you lost in my personality
You gonna have to wait for my next LP
[Chorus]
It's rough (it's tough), it's tough (it's rough)
Don't you know, it's rough

[Outro]
One, one, one...
And the next, and so on...
