Prince and the New Power Generation
The Flow
[Verse 1: Prince]
Contradiction, my prediction is that
Is it really important where I take my naps?
(No)
Or who I sleep with?
People with a real mind will peep this out
(Yo, out)
Oops, then there goes your clout
Another fool don't know what she's talking about
Like the woman who tried to approach and
Attempt to roast and even boast about
(What?)
How she know me when. Damn, here we go again
(What he say?)
You never went to school as far as I know
And now you're trying to say that you're writing a bio about me? (Kick their ass)
Girl, I hate to say this: n***a, please
(Tell them)
I go places that you never go
Ask what I'm kicking, I'm kicking the flow
[Chorus: Prince]
Rock to the f-l-o-w
(Wait a minute)
Minneapolis, Minneapolis
Just like you're supposed to do
Minneapolis, Minneapolis
Rock to the f-l-o-w
(Wait a minute)
Don't kill me, please
No, no, I ain't gonna kill you, man
(Just like you're supposed to do)
Tony, shoot that piece of shit
[Verse 2: Tony M.]
Just give me the beat and something to flow on
And before long, I have them bobbing their jugheads
To this funky song
Yeah, we're watching people scatter to the dance floor
Slamming and shaking their booties
Screaming "yo, T, give me more"
(More)
So more is what I give them
NPG rocking the track
Yo, tell me how we're living
(Living large, T)
You damn right, that's how it be
(I see)
Gotta keep it that way so that 5-0 can't find me and I'm sneaking
Up the back of a pack of rats
They thought I was asleep, but i'm saying it ain't all that
(No!)
Not with a 9 fading my back
I don't hang with the hat pack
(Bang!)
I'm running silent, solo black
Sleek neat creeping gang peeping
Known to put a damn fool to sleep
Who pulls a cheap one
(What you do?)
That's when I change my speed
And flow on then I start
Slipping and skipping and jumping around
So much I say bring it on
[Chorus: Prince]
Rock to the f-l-o-w
(Wait a minute)
Minneapolis, Minneapolis
Just like you're supposed to do
Minneapolis, Minneapolis
(To the bridge)
Rock to the f-l-o-w
(Wait a minute)
Minneapolis, Minneapolis
Just like you're supposed to do
(Speak English)
(To the bridge)
[Outro: Prince]
(To the bridge)
(To the bridge)
(To the bridge)
(Speak English)
(Ladies and gentleman)
(Ladies and gentleman)
Rock to the f-l-o-w
Just like you're supposed to do
(Ladies and gentleman)
Rock to the f-l-o-w
Just like you're supposed to do
Rock, rock, rock, rock
