Blowin Wax - People Under The Stairs

It’s like Oh!

Here comes another one, brother

Get down with the P sound when we smother

We coming through your city, stereo-wide to cover tracks

And blowing wax like F Hubbard

Cooler than Paisley jackets, I grab this song and hack it

Pack it like the new pimp hanging off my lip

They say, «Ay, big homie, yo, what’s up with the slang?»

Yo, what you mean?

That’s some shit from way back in the day

Just like the beats I rap over, more older than me

That’s the style of the P, and for y’all, it’s still free

Digging through old crates, just creating this sound

Scribble the funky rhyme and go and put that shit down

To the bottom of the barrel, Canned Funk like Joe Farrell

«Upon This Rock,» don’t get socked when you chop beats

We’re all about loops, jeeps in the streets with troop seats

On the throne of hip-hop, alone at the top

With some records we bought at your local thrift shop

Mom and Pops stole my ride instead of 70's rock

And a Dozey 45″ of brothers Doing the Do

We traveling the globe, trying to take it back to ‘92, y’all

Y’all used to it, the way we do what we do

Make MCs move quick, homie, stick with your crew

Don’t be trying to interrupt, ‘cause we corrupt like television

People Under The Stairs, a yeah yeah, we on a mission

My division persists, I tend niggas with heat

Known to get drunk and beat each other in the street

And you can search Montebello, Gardena, or Covina

And you won’t find another on the mic that gets meaner

Then the gun action at a black mob boss hit

We sprinkle funk like the Jacksons, kid, can you feel it?

The People Under The Stairs, we got the brand new sound

We travel now, I pack the bags, 10 Eastbound and…

For your MF Horn, keep these damn tracks torn

Thes sworn to bring the funk on plates warm

With the extra large Bitches Brew in a cup

Yo, you not funking right, kid, shut the funk up and keep it movin…

And sometimes, I gotta jump back and light the J

‘Cause I be tweaking off the way my skills display

And you can say what you want, but I flaunt what I got

To take a breen, whatever I mean

And then I amsa-scram, when I come and hit your block

Or watch the copper rocks fly from the one that busts high

And it’s a shame how lame these sucka MCs play that game

Let me sound like him, no go, you can’t win

With them wack ass loops y’all stole off of Tribe vibes

And admit it, the P arrives with Robbie and Sly

Bringing back break beats and sending B-boys to Kaiser Permanente

Foreman henty, I’mma break your synthesizer

And your drum pads, your making brown people look bad

And the OGs ain’t feelin it, ask my dad

So if I gotta sound like y’all to represent my coast

I’ma disown L.A. and take my shit on the road, it’s like…

I’m sure you know this shit’s a little more iller

The everybody killer, fuck ya red and blue

I’m more crooked than that punk, I’m past all that

Like the blunt to J Mack, we stayed laid back

Like a lazy boy for all your lazy toys

The off Philly for chords, out making much noise

It’s the P, you little nerd, steady burning like wax

The bitches with the Claps, that’s how the crowd reacts, and like…

Ay-yo, we here and everywhere to tear with the snare (No, you’re not)

Just like, uh, Fred Astaire, right down to Yogi Bear (Ha ha ha)

That’s the way we flip (Ah, that’s the way we rip!)

And want holes in jeans, are we lean like Jimmy Dean?

Hey yes, we are big brother, like sauces with pork

We hardcore True School, but we’re not from New York

We’re universally real, from Mid-City L. A

Make beats everyday, yo… what you say?

It goes…

«That's the new color, children.»

«That's right.»

(scratched and repeated)
