Quik Is The Name

You wanna see a young brother from the Compton tip check a grip

well keep lookin, because the C-A-M-E-O track is cookin

like a big ol pot of neckbones, we'll tend to fire up

because a young brother like the Quik is gettin wired up

You know my offbeat style is flowin all the while

I'm showin suckers, they can't get none of this

let alone some of this, I'm a musical genius

And if you fuck with my roll {"Face, down, HUT HUT HUT HUT!"}

I beat yo' ass as if uh we was playin Tecmo Bowl

I'm a producer if a rhythm is dope I choose it

and I hope you know I'd rather +BE+ dope than use it

I was a Player in the Penthouse and now I'm uprooted

A young scallion in them khaki suits and booted

With a 40 in hand I'ma take a stand

I'm lettin em know they can't fuck with the one man band

And if a soft sucker wanna know who's to blame

I let 'em know - Quik is the Name

{*scratching and samples*}

Now can we get back on the tip of the real unadulterated funk

This beat is gettin funky just like a skunk

And the funk is that I step with the style I show

Let's blow these motherfuckin nimrods doin low

What makes you think that you can even try to step to me?

I hold the dice without six on the tea leaf

I know you wanna win some go on and try your luck

Punk, put your money on the floor and get bucked

by a pro-fession-al, rhyme hoodlum

Hoochies all over my tip because I screwed 'em

One-time can't lock me up, cause I elude 'em

And bubblegum rappers can't fade me cause I chewed 'em

So suckers get at me I'm the "Q" in quotations

and the C-P-T is the location

I won't talk in riddles cause you don't need the strain on your brain

To make it simple - Quik is the Name

{*scratching and samples*}

Yeah, I don't compare my rhyme styles to no gat

cause to me that bullshit is SUPER wack

I just remain plain and kick the facts

bout how a nigga can't keep from gettin jacked

You gotta hold your own at any cost

cause if you don't boy you might get bossed and tossed

by a sucker who claims he got more game than you

Bein true is what you oughta do

or you just might find some chrome pointed at your dome

Think fast or you might not make it home

See a nigga like myself ain't goin out like that

because I found that it pays to pack a gat

in the city where surival is a full-time job black

and it ain't givin nuttin back

The fo'-fo'll keep a motherfucker tame

Behind the trigger yo, Quik is the Name
