lyrics

V1
so many artists have meant something to me
they're added everyday
hard to categorize and name em
love The Beatles and Zeppelin and GNR
Cypress Hill and Snoop took me
in another direction somehow
Outkast, Biggie
came along Metallica
and NOFX and Jimi
Hendrix, Tom Petty
no Milli Vanilli
Busta and Em
I even like a little 50
Then you got Madvillian
DOOM and Madlib fuckin killin
toppin it all off with some J. Dilla
Nirvana, Incubus, and Sloan
Mother Love Bone
Bring in Alice In Chains
to Protect the Throne
don't forget Ghost, Gza, and Meth
Black Thought and Royce
with the bars that make you def
Kanye told us he's about to make a killing
and never forget
that Wu-Tang is for the children

Hook
Drop D & an 808, little heavy metal bit of Doctor Dre,
Grew up on Bone Thugs N Harmony,
Korn came along and change it all for me
drop d and 808
mix a little Tool with some RTJ
A Tribe Called Quest with a dabble of Rage
deftones kickin it with Kendrick and J

V2
Drop D and an 808,
My mind goes off like it’s MIA,
I get lost in the sounds they make,
Straight vibin’ on rhythm and rage,

Jammin’ Def Leppard sittin’ back in my pj’s
10 years old rockin’ Photograph all day
Tag Team came along, way before cell phones
Whoomp, there it is, got hooked on a rap song

Stepped into Disc Jockey, lookin’ for a CD
Picked up Art of War by Bones Thugs N Harmony
Played both discs ‘til they wouldn’t play no more,
Went back to the store, picked up two more,

Thought I knew rock, from what came before
‘Til the day I head my first Drop D Chord
It was Marilyn Manson and the beautiful people
It was all relative to the size of your steeple,
