One time for CM Smooth

And one time as we bust a move

And one time for Funky D

And grab the mic and just MC and see

One time for CM Smooth

And one time as we bust a move

And one time for Funky D

And grab the mic and just MC and see

Pick up the pen like Picasso

I write like I gots no time to waste

I'm so quick they say “not so fast

Slow down sunny I can't keep up

So I slow but there's Norway like Oslo

I'm incognito as far as the cops know

Unrevealing like women don't let they top show

Microphone assassin so I got to get my props yo'

Dedicated all my service to hip-hop yo'

I don't rush I bop slow I'm a perfectionist

Tell me “what's point if you ain't listening to the rest of this

But people want to criticise and be a pessimist

But couldn't do the way that I do it and do it effortless

Nevertheless my message is I just can't lose

Chillin' with my dude we call him CM Smooth

He's on the beat and I float on the rhyme that's how we do

Blackcurrent crew with the Blackcurrent two

So forget it if you're trying to attack me

Cos I roll too deep from the Borough of Hackney

East London

They tell me I don't sound like a Londoner

But this is no misrepresentation like a “Wonder Bra”

I am what I is and I is what I am

And I is what I was

You don't like it Too bad

You didn't want him to

But man he still did it

So put your headphones on and deal with it

Deal with it

Yo' it's the way the game is

It's the way we used to running the biz

Just deal with it

Yo' it's the way that we roll

It's the way we used to taking control

Just deal with it

Yo' it's the way that we run from the days that we started begun

Just deal with it

Yo' it's the way that we ride CM Smooth DL let's glide

What's wrong these moist MC's

Yeah they rhyme but they can't see the wood for the trees

They focused on too many intricacies

So they style grow old like the mould on a cheese

And I really so hate to be one to pass judgement

Cos all they're really doing is they own way of hustling

To each his own that means my way ain't your way

You jump through the window

I just walk through the doorway

I ain't trying to say it ain't hard though

But they won't reduce me to no desperado

I went from “not quite” to a “bravo”

Went from luke-warm now I'm hot like charcoal

And never scared even when I'm in a dark hole

Funky I'm trying to bring the goods like cargo

And got the type of joints that make the people go marbles

CM Smooth and DL what a combo

So ya'll know we both mean business

So stop the pretending and don't bear false witness

You've got to put Blackcurrent Jazz on the hit list

Get this style d**e don't really sweat this

I am what I is and I is what I am

And I is what I was you don't like it Too bad

You didn't want' him to but man he still did it

So put your headphones on and deal with it

Deal with it

Yo' it's the way the game is

It's the way we used to running the biz

Just deal with it

Yo' it's the way that we roll

It's the way we used to taking control

Just deal with it

Yo' it's the way that we run from the days that we started begun

Just deal with it

Yo' it's the way that we ride CM Smooth DL let's glide
