[00:00.00] 作词 : Davis, Muhammad, Taylor
[00:10.03] Linden Boulevard represent, represent-sent
[00:12.74] Tribe Called Quest represent, represent-sent
[00:15.17] When the mic is in my hand, I'm never hesitant
[00:17.34] My favorite jam back in the day was Eric B. for Presi...
[00:19.95] Rude boy composer, step to me you're over
[00:22.59] Brothers wanna flex, you're not Mad Cobra
[00:25.15] MC shorty black, there ain't no other
[00:27.45] Trini-born lad like Nia Long's grandmother
[00:30.19] Tip and Sha they all that, Phife Dawg ditto
[00:32.70] Honey tell your man to chill, or else you'll be a widow
[00:35.05] Did not you know that my styles are top-dollar?
[00:37.74] The Five-Foot Assassin knocking fleas off his collar
[00:40.28] Hip hop scholar since being knee high to a duck
[00:42.68] The height of Muggsy Bogues, complexion of a hockey puck
[00:45.50] You better ask somebody on how we flip the script
[00:47.72] Come to a Tribe show and watch the three kids rip
[00:50.25]
[00:50.54] Queens is in the house represent, represent
[00:52.71] A Tribe Called Quest represent, represent
[00:55.40] No taming of the style cause it gets irreverent
[00:57.78] A Tribe Called Quest represent, represent
[01:00.36] Huh-huh, here we go, you know that I'm the rebel
[01:02.87] Throwing out the wicked like God did the Devil
[01:05.30] Funky like your grandpa's drawers, don't test me
[01:07.94] We in like that, you're dead like Presley
[01:10.42] When we coming through get tickets to see me
[01:12.82] We work for the paper so there'll never be a freebie
[01:15.41] Lyrics are abundant cause we got it by the mass
[01:17.84] Egos are all idle cause the music is the task
[01:20.43] Valenzuela on the pitch, curveball, catch it
[01:23.09] I think I got it locked, just smooth while I latch it
[01:25.55] Right, now I must move with the quickness
[01:28.13] Here comes Shaheed so we must bear the witness
[01:30.61]
[01:31.06] Stir it up! Stir it up! Stir it up!
[01:37.90] Steve Biko
[01:40.41] Stir it up! Stir it up! Stir it up!

[01:49.45]
[01:50.62] New York City represent, represent
[01:53.31] A Tribe Called Quest represent, represent
[01:55.90] The Dawg is scientific with the styles I invent
[01:58.23] A Tribe Called Quest represent, represent
[02:00.71] MCs like to meddle, but here's my proposition
[02:03.14] I let my lyrics flow, and juxt your whole position
[02:05.91] I'm radical with this like the man this song is after
[02:08.36] Yo Tip settle down, what's the reason for the laughter?
[02:10.87] (I really can't say, I guess I laugh to keep from crying
[02:13.53] So much going on, people killing, people dying
[02:15.88] But I won't dwell on that, I think I'll elevate my mental
[02:18.47] Thanks for these bars on the Biko instrumental)
[02:20.95] Yo I'll take it back, I'm the Indian giver
[02:23.30] MCs take notes as I stand and deliver
[02:26.39] Percussion isn't less, Ds wear the vest
[02:28.42] Why they dodging bullets, you should be dodging Quest
[02:30.96] Don't get me wrong, violence is not our forte
[02:33.57] I just like to rhyme, kick the lyric skills like Pelé
[02:36.02] Tip educate 'em, my rhymes are strictly taboo
[02:38.51] Fill 'em with some fantasies and I'll look out like Tattoo
[02:41.12]
[02:41.46] Ok, I am recognizing that the voice inside my head
[02:43.34] Is urging me to be myself but never follow someone else
[02:46.13] Because opinions are like voices, we all have a different kind
[02:48.28] So just clean out all of your ears, these are my views and you will find
[02:51.20] That we revolutionize over the kick and the snare
[02:53.63] The ghetto vocalist is on a state-wide tear
[02:56.11] Soon to be the continent and then the freaking globe
[02:58.78] There's room for it all as we mingle at the mall
[03:01.18] We welcome competition cause it doesn't make one lazy or worn
[03:03.87] We gotta work hard, you know the damn card
[03:06.30] Try to be the phattest is the level that we strive
[03:08.76] Try to be the phattest also to stay alive
