2 Live Crew - Break It On Down Lyrics

Break it on down
Break it on down
Break it on down
Break it on down
Break it on down

Now let me break it on down and tell the story
When they say "2 Live," your mama gets worried
When they speak of us, the negative get mentioned
But we don't care; thanks for your attention

An underground sound, talkin' shit off the street
That ghetto gtyle with a hard-ass beat
Our explicit lyrics tells it like it is
If you don't like what I'm saying, get the fuck outta here

Luke Skyywalker, the man, not a myth
The king of the ghetto, down with the clique
As he gets mixin' he don't like attention
He just likes to hear crowd participation

Pumpin' up the people, makin' them one crowd
All in one motion, screamin' out loud
Together as one in every town
Slash 'em on up, Luke

Break it on down
Break it on down

The definition of a good DJ
Is one who rocks the beat so the rhymes I say
To get the party jumpin', is how I get paid
Benefits of a hit is when I get laid

Mr. Mixx is the one to get things goin'
So the rhymes we say will always be flowin'
Maximizin' the effect of our vocals
Whether nationwide or even local

His cuts and scratches taken to the extreme
Can only be matched in another's dreams
Doin' things with his body that couldn't be done
Rockin' the masses all for fun

He's always needed after every show
The Treach DJ, the only one you should know
Step to the Mixx and get the crowd off the ground
Come on, Mr. Mixx, and

Break it on down
Break it on down
Break it on down
Break it on down

If you ask me to rap, rap for you I'll do so
I'm the type of nigga that'll break it down slow
I rhyme like an artist, such as DaVinci
Like the Mona Lisa, I'm a sight to see

This is not a tale and I'm not a character
Just a kind of MC who loves to harass ya
Out my dome, I'll start thinkin'
Get so funky 'til I start stinkin'

I don't think slow when it comes to rhymes
When times create, I shift to overdrive
Now all the competition, they're my last worries
I'll take 'em out quick, fast and in a hurry

Now I can go the distance, I can go the length
It's not the weak, because it's all in the strength
You don't know? You mean you ain't heard?
Yours truly, Marquis, can

Break it on down
Break it on down
Break it on down
Break it on down

We'll make you feel the beat
We'll make you feel the beat
We'll make you feel the beat

We'll make you feel the beat
(Break it on down)
Break 1, break 2, break 3, break 4
(Break it on down)
(Break it on down)
(Break it on down)
