[Intro: Erick Sermon]
EPMD, what? Uh, yeah
[Verse 1: Erick Sermon]
They go "ooh" and "ah" when I jump in my car
People treat me like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
When I'm supreme rap star, they all know me
E.D., when I flash the greens on TV
MCs be robbin' me of my technique
The way I speak, the way I get down, the way I sound
And if you ask me, they must be on the jock of the innovator
Rock, roll, bounce to skater
[Verse 2: Parrish Smith]
Okay, fuck it, enough with the tight shit, grab the mic quick
Poly wit' n***as, put it down, spit some hype shit
EPMD, Erick and Parrish Makin Dollars
The rap scholars keep the show packed like funeral parlors
Deadly, murderous I know you heard of us
Holdin' shit down on the block, nobody servin' us (Yeah, son)
The E Double and Mic Doc, Boondox
Def Jam's off the meter, yo, this shit is hot
[Chorus: EPMD, Erick Sermon, Parrish Smith]
Never seen before, heard before, the uncut raw
I'm Erick Sermon and I'm Parrish Smith
Never seen before, heard before, the uncut raw
Yeah, I'm Erick Sermon and I'm Parrish Smith
[Verse 3: Erick Sermon]
Check it, now I'm back with the flyest material
Mic Doc and E Dub the Grand Imperial
My mic's deadly, so I scratched off the serial
And stashed it until I have to kill at will
Keep it movin', yes, it's me in the flesh, it's no illusion
Fuck around and catch minor contusions
Whatever, I'm Smokin' Joe when it comes to rap
I'm a professional, Tiger Woods, I'm good
[Verse 4: Parrish Smith]
Time to black out, no doubt, people wanna know about
The inside scoop with the group, and are they comin' out
Damn skippy, I'm tipsy, high like a hippie
Don't take drinks from strangers 'cause n***as slip mickies
That's why I stay on cue, like Omar Epps in J-U
I-C-E, so chill and bust the debut
In rare form, the false alarms, the mic dons
Back in effect, snap that neck, the P's gone
[Chorus: EPMD, Erick Sermon, Parrish Smith]
Never seen before, heard before, the uncut raw
I'm Erick Sermon and I'm Parrish Smith
Never seen before, heard before, the uncut raw
Yeah, I'm Erick Sermon and I'm Parrish Smith
[Verse 5: Erick Sermon, PMD]
Never say never
What? EPMD's back together
And if it gets warm, take off the hot sweater
Flip the ill slick flow (Flow)
Watch us throw (Throw)
Down with the other brothers toe to toe
And if ya slow ya blow
That's why we comin with the ammo
Yo, ten year veterans
A thousand rap sessions
Yeah, the hard rockers
The crowd shockers
The head knockers
Yeah EPMD's off the rockers
[Chorus: EPMD, Erick Sermon, Parrish Smith]
Never seen before, heard before, the uncut raw
I'm Erick Sermon and I'm Parrish Smith
Never seen before, heard before, the uncut raw
Yeah, I'm Erick Sermon and I'm Parrish Smith
Never seen before, heard before, the uncut raw
I'm Erick Sermon and I'm Parrish Smith
Never seen before, heard before, the uncut raw
I'm Erick Sermon and I'm Parrish Smith
[Outro: Erick Sermon]
Yeah, uh, uh, uh-huh, yeah
Yeah, that was dope, word up
EPMD for nine-what, whatever, yeah, uh-huh
Blowin' my mind
Sample this shit, word up
