Grandmaster Flash [Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five]

> Baby don't you do it, don't do it babe
Don't break my heart, don't do it babe
Don't break my heart, please don't do it babe
Don't you break my heart
'Cause I sacrifice to make you happy
Get nothin' for myself
Now you wanna leave me
For the love of someone else
My pride is all gone, whether right or wrong
I believe, baby, you'd better keep on keepin' on
Girl, I try to do my best
Girl, I try to do my best, don't do it babe
Don't break my heart, oh don't do it baby
Don't break my heart
My biggest mistake was lovin' you too much
And lettin' you know
'Cause now you've got me where you want me
And you're gonna let me go
My heart was made glad when you strolled, you see
Heartaches and misery you've been causin' me
Girl, I try to do my best
Girl, I try to do my best
Don't you do it, don't break my heart
Go down to the river and there I'll be
I'm gonna jump in, baby, if you don't see by me
Open up your eyes; can't you see I love you?
Open up your heart; can't you see I need you?
I'm no good without you, can't go on without you
Life's no good without you, what'm I gonna do without you?
Baby don't do it, don't you break my heart
Don't you do it, baby, don't you break my heart
What'm I gonna do without you?
Got to go on, baby
Baby don't you do it

Way to hott to touch to taste the perfect Melody to my druming bass
Since you broke up with what's his face

Underline it Y I'm here to protect what's in your chest's left side
I'm seeing clear skies in my forcast
I remember when we first crossed paths
I did a double take looking at you like Ahh
You keep it moving cause you didn't give Ahh
If there's 6 millon ways to die then there's 6 hundred millon ways to live
I pray forgive anything I've done that can block the sun

What if Hip Hop was never born, yo?
No Herc, No Flash, No Band, No Change, yo
No DJ's, No grab, No breakers, No MC
What would the state of dope world truly be?

No throw your hands, no screaming, no noise no DJ's cutting
No B-Boys, no B-Girls, No Grafitti, No nothing
If Hip Hop was never born? let me make this clear
Just the thought of it definitely brings me tears

It's not about a salery it's all about reality,
And Hip Hop is the reality that creates all these saleries.
HIP HOP, HIP HOP, HIP HOP
It's in the academies,
Hauled from the streets of the hood every family
But what if Hip Hop didn't exist?
There wouldn't be this, there wouldn't be Chris,
Or a Public Enemy with a black power fist.
No Queen Latifa, no Will Smith either,
There would only be tight jeans, tight suits and black sneakers.
No Tango hats either, no bandana headdress, no TV's in the headrest
Who would be a big mess, trust me
Drew it, without rap I'd be saying this here in country music.
We be no stars, imagine B-Boying over acoustic guitars,
Not the sixteen bars.
FEEL ME!
The art of sampling as well as cutting and scratching.
It's all ours.
But really think about it.
FEEL ME!

What if Hip Hop was never born, yo?
No Herc, No Flash, No Band, No Change, yo
No DJ's, No grab, No breakers, No MC
What would the state of dope world truly be?

No throw your hands, no screaming, no noise no DJ's cutting
No B-Boys, no B-Girls, No Grafitti, No nothing
What if Hip Hop was never born? let me make this clear
Just the thought if it definitely brings me tears

So what if Hip Hop was never born?
Never known?
Never forever wrong,
Never criticing our songs?
What if Hip Hop was never here?
Never that flavour in your ear,
Never that thing that make you want to say OH YEAH!
No street millionaires, no billionaires.
No Russell, No Diddy, No Wayne, No Chamillionaire
Let me get this clear, today you have a real choice,
Because of Hip Hops existance you have a real voice.
But what if Hip Hop never came around to the boogie down,
Never touched Herc and it touched another sound.

You wouldn't know about James Brown, Pull in the Funkdelic, the radio and still have a play in the sound. (?)
It's like wearing the same gown as a model,
Stepping off the runway and go eat out at McDonalds.
We was the models, and society was McDonalds
Comnplete with a presidential clown, McRonald.
But really...

What if Hip Hop was never born, yo?
No Herc, No Flash, No Band, No Change, yo
No DJ's, No grab, No breakers, No MC
What would the state of dope world truly be?

No throw your hands, no screaming, no noise no DJ's cutting
No B-Boys, no B-Girls, No Grafitti, No nothing
What if Hip Hop was never born?
Let me make this clear,
Just the thought of it definitely brings me tears

Now that would be something
No scratching, no cutting
Now Listen,
No cars driving by with the boomin' systems,
No prison coz non of us would be in 'em,
No one would be advertisng that rap to our children.
Sure there be murder, and thugs and drugs
But they be on the low, and hardly heard of,
Except if you watch the news.
See,
If there was no Hip Hop in society,
Then there would be fewer alternative views.
See we not about to lose.
Real Hip Hop, is like real estate,
It's never going to move.
I'd be singing the Blues literally,
If I didn't acknowledge and cultivate the Hip Hop living in ME!
So what's It going to be I ask!
Hip Hop wasn't even supposed to last
So I gotta laugh when I look at Flash!

Yeah Grandmaster Flash is on the tracks,
But where would we be without the cut and the scratch?
SO I ask!

What if Hip Hop was never born, yo?
No Herc, No Flash, No Band, No Change, yo
No DJ's, No grab, No breakers, No MC
What would the state of dope world truly be?

No throw your hands, no screaming, no noise no DJ's cutting
No B-Boys, no B-Girls, No Grafitti, No nothing
What if Hip Hop was never born? let me make this clear
Just the thought of it definitely brings me tears

B-boys rock the world
B-girls they don't stop
So listen to supernat as i bust through the track
Imma give you some real hip hop
We gonna talk about the muscles of the dance
The ones that put you in a trance
Get up on the dance floor and give you more
Tell you what they're so advanced

Cuz you never seen styles like these
Even got b-boys on the siege
They bring the crowd straight to they knees
Warriors, dance floors under siege
All you need is agility and a little speed
B-boys now shoot for their own league
Supernat this is another heat rock
Kill em with flash on the beatbox

Hey, he's got a real flow
Get on the dance floor
Bust into bronco
Hey, you gotta do a little footwork
This is for the real b-boy network
Yeah put your mind at ease
You got to be flossy when you freeze
Do power moves and make em so nice
Make sure that every float is precise
Hey, from hand skills to windmills

6 steps they got a real rep
Hey, this is the cat called the supernat
And if i could i would try to do a hollowback
Or scorpion, a headspin, a halo
Yeah, for all the cats out there who don't know
And get on the mic if you wanna try me
Kill em with a 1990

Party people get funky funky
Said the hip hop don't stop
It's supernat on the track
Listen right now we'll bring that back
To the days of old when crazy legs was on the dance floor
Way that he rocked he would give them much more
Mr wiggles and mr wave
To be a b-boy, yo you must be brave
Rest in peace mr frosty freeze
I hope in heaven that you're so at ease
Hey do it for rock steady
The way that you did it you were so committed
New york city breakers they were so live
L.a. breakers changed the whole vibe
Air force crew took it to another level
Supernat a hip hop rebel
