LL Cool J - Mama Said Knock You Out Lyrics

C'mon man
And with the local DBT news
LL Cool J with a triumphant comeback
But tonight

Don't call it a comeback, I been here for years
Rockin' my peers and puttin' suckas in fear
Makin' the tears rain down like a monsoon
Listen to the bass go boom

Explosion overpowerin'
Over the competition I'm towerin'
Wreckin' shop when I drop these lyrics
That'll make you call the cops

Don't you dare stare
You betta move don't ever compare
Me to the rest that'll all get sliced and diced
Competition's payin' the price

I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said, "Knock you out"
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said, "Knock you out"

I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said, "Knock you out"
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said, "Knock you out"

Don't you call this a regular jam
I'm gonna rock this land
I'm gonna take this itty bitty world by storm
And I'm just gettin' warm

Just like Muhammad Ali they called him Cassius
Watch me bash this beat like a skull 'cause u know I had beef with
Why do u riff with me, the maniac psycho
And when I pull out my jammy get ready 'cause it might go blaw

How ya like me now? The river will not allow
You to get with, Mr. Smith, don't riff listen to my gear shift
I'm blastin', outlastin' kinda like Shaft, so u could say I'm shaftin'
Old English filled my mind and I came up with a funky rhyme

I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said, "Knock you out"
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said, "Knock you out"

I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said, "Knock you out"
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said, "Knock you out"

Breakdown

[Incomprehensible]

Shadow boxin' when I heard you on the radio
I just don't know
What made you forget that I was raw?
But now I got a new tour

I'm goin' insane, startin' the hurricane, releasin' pain
Lettin' you know that you can't gain, I maintain
Unless ya say my name
Rippin', killin', diggin' and drillin' a hole pass the ol' gold

I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said, "Knock you out"
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said, "Knock you out"

I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said, "Knock you out"
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said, "Knock you out"

Shotgun blasts are heard when I rip and kill, at will
The man of the hour, tower of power, I'll devour
I'm gonna tie you up and let you understand
That I'm not your average man when I got a jammy in my hand

Damn, oh listen to the way I slay, your crew
Damage, damage, damage, damage
Destruction, terror, and mayhem
Pass me a sissy so suckas I'll slay him

Farmers, farmers I'm ready
I think I'm gonna bomb a town
Don't u neva, eva, pull my lever
'Cause I explode and my nine is easy to load

I gotta thank God
'Cause he gave me the strength to rock
Hard knock you out
Mama said, "Knock you out"

I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said, "Knock you out"
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said, "Knock you out"

I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said, "Knock you out"
I'm gonna knock you out
Mama said, "Knock you out"
