All For One (2006 Remastered Version)

Yeah
(One for all, is all for one)
I hit a beat and swing a note as if my name was David Ruffin
Quick to toast an MC just like an English muffin
Dont worry about a thing because the Pubas never bluffing
I gets headaches from the wack, so then I take a Bufferin and I max
I wait until the opportune time and then I tax but should I max?
Now they say sinning is for sinners so I guess Im not a sinner
Beginnings for beginners so I guess Im no beginner
This is how I spark it, puts money in my pocket
When it comes to having pleasure I gets hard as a rocket
MC Grand Pu coming through all the residue
The songs remain classics dating back to the Babalu
My boys I call em Akh, the foes I let em jock
And I can think of many episodes I swung in Lincoln Park
No Im not a phony and I got a tenderoni
Love the way she is - not too fat, not too bony
Dont drink Sanka, wont sink like a tanker
Knock the boots off a skirt in Casablanca and I thank her
Some rappers stink like Englebert Humperdinck
Better yet **** Cavett, I got a bad habit
Similar to the girl on Shes Gotta Have It
I think with the brain and I whip behind the zipper
Im living kinda good similar to Jack Tripper
A landlord named Roper did a show at the Copa
When Im finished with this Ill be paid like Oprah
So if honey wants to act fly
Ill just play like Guy and Im (saying, 'bye, bye, dumb *****!')
Stick out your thumb and hitch
Cause youve been cut off like a light switch
See Im programmed to slam, winter, summer, spring or fall
Before I do a show I get some kicks out the mall
Then I get my gear and I give Trev a call
Cause he works in the barbershop, right behind the mall
Other rappers tried to rob me but you know they got did
To put it blunt, honey I shrunk the kids
So bookers back off break North here comes the regulator
Betcha that you find none greater
(One for all) Brand Nubian!
(Is all for one) Brand Nubian!
(One for all) Brand Nubian!
(Is all for one) Brand Nubian!
On file is a style, thats why you caught a clip
My suitcases is packed and Im going on a trip
To Mic-a-delphia I go for self and still be slamming
The school bell is ringing and I caught somebody cramming
For the test, oh yes, my study guide was thick
I cut you with my verbal, didnt hurt you just a nick
Off your face, dont play possum watch me and Ill blossom
Like a rose and get some new clothes
And a fresh fade from Rob
Jamar on the phone and now the Now Rule Mob
The come one, come all, we about to get hectic
If my crew dont get in, then the X makes a exit
To the rear, Im outta here, dont front on my brothers
I take care of them before I take care of others
The wood bats is doomed, in the 90s its aluminum
Step to the stage with a mic and Im doing em something awful
Im a citizen and Im lawful
I go to Hunter in the fall, rip the policemens ball
I got the power to make a car stall
I get some drinks from Glackens, and when the crowd slackens
I stop drinking and then I start thinking about
Days in the past when Derek X was last
But now Im on the top, damn, news travels fast
Cause Im like that, they cant see this
Read my book, it contains many pieces of verses
I took the time to delete all the curses
So moms reach deep in your purses
And buy me, take me home and try me and do me well
(One for all) Brand Nubian!
(Is all for one) Brand Nubian!
(One for all) Brand Nubian!
(Is all for one) Brand Nubian!
Well, while I reign rhymes pour
You suck it up like a straw and jump on the dance floor
Cause every time I step in a jam
I make like a door and slam
But then girls try to turn my knob cause Im a heart throb
I guess its just a hazard that comes with the job
Cause every time I rock a rhyme that shows Jamar is intellectual
Girls want to get ***ual
Well I guess I have to cope with being so ****
You want to be me, but cant see me with a telescope
You seek and search but still you cant find
Youre weak and it hurts to be deaf, dumb and blind
A supreme mind will take you out of your paralysis
I grip the mic so tight I get callouses
And your analysis is that the Lord
Whips rhymes into shape with a mic cord
I do it good cause Im a positive black man
Eating up suckers as if I was PacMan
Not a Dapper Dan fan, I stay casual
To rock like the J it comes gradual
You got to know the ledge to wise the dumb
And understand your culture of freedom
Power equally with the Gods
So you can build and born your cipher
All your life you must teach truth
Of the true and living God, not a mystery spook
And when you do that, pursue that goal
Which made the student enroll and only then youll prosper
(One for all, is..is all for one)
(One for all.. )
