Lyrics John Reuben

John Reuben

Doin'

(chorus)

Reuben, what is he Dipidy doin'

This ego was quick to say he was better than me better be correct

Before you step and try to sever my integrity please

You MC's need to quit it

I mean do you really think that you're the only ones that get it

And what is it we don't get huh?

Maybe that empty book bag that you sport as a gimmick

To the Timberland boots that have never been scuffed

All the while you're still hollering rugged and rough

I call your bluff you're just like the rest of them

The only difference is you follow a less popular trend friend

Tell me how are you going to dog the mainstream

Then turn around the underground and do the exact same thing that you're dissing

You get what I'm putting down

I say a gimmick can be found above as well as underground

And since what's real can't be defined by culture or man

I'm curious as to what makes you think that you can

[Sing along!]

(chorus)

Ideas start occurring and words start stirring

Never would I suggest this to be the best

It's just I like putting words on mics

It's something I like to do something I find nice

Don't need to dominate or inflate my confidence

Got no problem giving MC's complements

But some get mad at me like they want to battle me

Upset because I made their hip hop happy

Actually I think you tough guys are corny

And my LP comes with a foolproof warranty

If you buy it and don't like it feel free not to listen

I'm not sure about a refund but you're welcome to diss it

Because I don't will not and won't ask you to

React to the beat if you ain't feeling it

But perhaps maybe you are in that case

It goes one for the treble two for the bass

Arrogance mixed with ignorance will and can bring forth a man

That don't really understand but claims he does

And you know what, that's not good

[No that's not good]

(chorus)

Y'know what? Ya'll got to be kidding

Man, some of ya'll treat art like it was some sort of religion

Following the rules one two and on through

To the point you don't create art, art created you

Ya'll got to be kidding man

Some of ya'll treat hip hop like it was some sort of religion

Following the rules one two and on through

To the point you don't create hip hop, hip hop created you
