Da Joint

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Erick Sermon] I make a million bucks every six months and y'all Hating my game, saying my name, they call Me, the E, wrong things, knowing I'm fly without wings While some of y'all have to pull strings In this era, I maintain the freak upon the beat Master basslines of Raphael Saadiq Lyrical mastermind, a genius, so don't snooze No mission's impossible, ask Tom Cruise I keep a joint lit when I have to spit A rough paragraph, laugh, when I'm bustin' your ass Who want it? Come and see me, like 112 And I'll rock that bell with Fox and L E-Dub, Mr. Excitement, right The Poltergeist of rap, so come to the light Yes, the recipient of this award goes to moi The best qualified superstar [Chorus: Erick Sermon (PMD)] My squad stays on point like Den en den den de den—it's the joint! (Yeah my squad stay on point like) Den en den den de den—it's the joint! [EPMD (Ad Rock vocal sample)] New York, I'm in your area (Over here!) DC, I'm in your area (Over here!) New Jers, I'm in your area (Over here!) EPMD is a world premier [Verse 2: PMD] It's the joint, stay on point, plus I'm feelin' it Niggas killin' shit, tryin' to duplicate the manuscripts That's impossible, pray like the gospel Overcoming setbacks and jumping over obstacles Like Evel Knievel, on point like a needle EPMD's like The Beatles, back with another sequel To hip-hop, check one-two and you don't stop Rap with mainstream R&B and Pop Now the world's shocked, the E-Double's back with Mic-Doc Like it or not, we 'bout to turn it up another notch Mach speed, put it down for my seeds Raw breeds, acres with the deeds, it's the joint [Chorus: Erick Sermon (PMD)] My squad stays on point like Den en den den de den—it's the joint! (Yeah my squad stay on point like) Den en den den de den—it's the joint! [EPMD (Ad Rock vocal sample)] VA, I'm in your area (Over here!) DA, I'm in your area (Over here!) Chi-Town, I'm in your area (Over here!) EPMD is a world premier [Verse 3: Erick Sermon] My style's digable, so I'm phat like that I got a Benz too and it's black like that I got millions of chips, and they stack like that A five year spread and now we back like that How dare they – niggas sittin' in they room with Brandy Way pissed off thinkin' how they can't stand me He robbed Sean for his Penn, talkin' Not lookin', shooken, a Dead Man Walkin' [Verse 4: PMD, (Erick Sermon)] You know me, from rippin' flows with my homie The one and only, Ginuwine like "Pony" You wanna ride? Call me up when you're lonely I'm Parrish Smith, the shit—great like Tony I'm hittin'-hittin' (Where from?) From Brentwood to San Quentin I'ma keep rhymin', still representin' (For who?) For my niggas up North and in the courts And for the MCs takin' no shorts, in this bloodsport [Chorus: Erick Sermon (PMD)] My squad stays on point like Den en den den de den—it's the joint! (Yeah my squad stay on point like) Den en den den de den—it's the joint! [EPMD (Ad Rock vocal sample)] Detroit, I'm in your area (Over here!) Cali, I'm in your area (Over here!) Philly, I'm in your area (Over here!) EPMD is a world premier
