Rock With Me
[Intro]
Uh-huh, uh, east coast (Yeah)
Uh, uh, uh-uh, uh-uh , west coast (Uh-huh, uhh)
Down in the dirty (Where?)
Dirty-dirty (Aha-ha), c'mon

[Chorus]
Rock with me, put ya hands up in the air so
I can see that you feel it and never could get e—
'Nough of JD, how I put it down it makes you wanna
Rock with me all night long
Rock with me, put ya hands up in the air so
I can see that you feel it and never could get e—
'Nough of JD, how I rep the A-town, it makes ya
Rock with me all night long (Tell 'em)

[Verse 1]
Well, it started off on the avenue
When I came up with the name called the So Def Crew (So So Def)
It was me, my big homie Eddie
Up late making tapes, putting them out on the streets
I used to rap, scratch, even try to sing (Uh-oh)
Now I'm the little cat pumping out the steam
I used to play with it, now I stay with it
Lay with it, and, huh, keep pumping out hits (They know)
'Cause can't nobody do it like we does (Haha)
This side, that side I gets nothing but love
And I keep it pumping up in the clubs (Yeah)
Big with all the pimps, the hustlers, ladies and thugs
That respect that knock (Knock), when they hear that knock (Knock)
Y'all n***as think I'm gon' stop? Please
Y'all won't see me on behind the scenes
But you can catch me at a money machine (Haha), ching-ching (C'mon)
[Chorus]
Rock with me, put ya hands up in the air so
I can see that you feel it and never could get e—
'Nough of JD, how I put it down it makes you wanna
Rock with me all night long (Uh, uh-uh, c'mon)
Rock with me, put ya hands up in the air so
I can see that you feel it and never could get e—
'Nough of JD, how I rep the A-town, it makes ya
Rock with me all night long (Uh-huh, uh, haha)

[Verse 2]
Kris Kross was the beginning of the linen and cars
Houses, hidden clubs, shutting down the bars (Oh, yeah)
I was only nineteen doing big, big things
In the CP living the American dream
Then I signed Xscape, first album one-point-eight (Million)
New company, my shit looked great, but, uh (Haha)
Me being the player that I am, I couldn't stop
I just had to find me something else to take to the top (Come on)
Something fly that'll catch your eye
That's when I bumped into my little sister from the west side of Chi
Demo after demo we made
Got so funkdafied, now we paid (Y'all know it)
Rap or R&B, we ain't playing
We demand y'all respect this afro man (For sure)
As the game gets bigger and my dough gets longer
And me and my crew get stronger, the more you wanna
[Chorus]
Rock with me, put ya hands up in the air so
I can see that you feel it and never could get e—
'Nough of JD, how I put it down it makes you wanna
Rock with me all night long (Come on)
Rock with me, put ya hands up in the air so
I can see that you feel it and never could get e—
'Nough of JD, how I rep the A-town, it makes ya (Uh-huh, uh)
Rock with me all night long (Haha, yo)

[Verse 3]
In every flight there's turbulence and I had some
But I remained focused and kept dropping the bomb
"What should I do next?" That was going through my head
Then Kandi introduced me to a Jagged Edge (Oh my)
Three homies from the Dec, one from right around the corner
We went in, came out, now everybody on 'em
Three albums later (What?), everybody on 'em (Uh-uh)
Ain't a city you can go where the girls don't want 'em (Nah)
Once again I was thinking, "What's next for me?"
Then I got a big call from my homie Steve
He said "Hey, let throw something your way"
It was none other than my brother they compare to MJ (Uh-huh)
Girls can't stop screaming, three mill' now (Uh)
Everybody love him and his name is Bow Wow
As the game gets bigger and my dough gets longer
And me and my crew get stronger, the more you wanna
[Chorus]
Rock with me, put ya hands up in the air so (Uh)
I can see that you feel it and never could get e—
'Nough of JD, how I put it down it makes you wanna
Rock with me all night long
Rock with me, put ya hands up in the air so
I can see that you feel it and never could get e—
'Nough of JD (Nah), how I rep the A-town, it makes ya (Yo)
Rock with me all night long

[Outro]
See, haha, I've been doing what I'm doing for like ten years, man
Putting out fire, man
You might remember Silk Tymes Leather, Monica, haha
Mary J. Blige, Mariah Carey
Janet Jackson, TLC, Usher, MC Lyte
Man, you name it, man, I got the hits, playboy, haha
Dru Hill, Da Brat, Xscape, Jagged Edge, aha
Kris Kross, Destiny's Child and my little homeboy Bow Wow
Listen, man, I ain't even gotta say no more
But I just wanna let y'all know
