De La Soul - What's That? (Que Eso?) lyrics

[Mos Def] I took Spanish One for four years, so um, I'ma spit my sh** right here Oigame malo muchacho Mos Def con Tony Flaco El idioma que yo hablo Pretty young champ like Camacho Spittin' a hot flow B-boy shout Zulu Gestapo, bro You know my stylo Cigarillo con tamarindo Habichuelas negras Arroz amarillo Yo soy suave, viejito Campeon nacional como Tito Bringin' the heat, bro Unique when I speak, yo Do it my way like Carlito Beats by M-a-s-e-o From Pelham Bay to Puerto Rico Play my beats on Caliente Noventa Siete On the expressway and press play See what ya neck say Duro siempre Para mi gente ganamos Se 'cabo then gabamos Gorillo hacen la manos Blowin ya spot like they got toast A lot of MC's is def but they not Mos And not close Son understand that when I shine All your light is through Y'all n***as wack in one language son I'm nice in two f** is you? [Chorus] (Que Eso?) Tu no sabes? Mis sonidos Siempre ganamos Nunca perdimos (Para quien?) Blanco, negro, latino del mundo Cuando multo Que profundo (Que Eso?) Tu no sabes? Mis sonidos Siempre ganamos Nunca perdimos (Para quien?) Blanco, negro, latino Gorillos All those street folks Yo bonito [Plug one] Hey yo, I cop chips to ziplock grips the verse Non-conventional original b-boy My peeps call me Merce I'm from NYC so CYN me There's a lot of hustlin' found around my chi Sip the strawberry daq' that ain't never been f**ed Tryin' to catch me off balance, man you sh** out of luck Cause we got more rams than I drive in y'all Got the people at the jams more alive than y'all I'm with Tone Touch while you all touched in the head Such a lethal combination got you facing the red And um yo You don't want no part to that Your style's so p**y your last name should be cat We takin' it back like sleestacks and pylons With the ladies in a frenzy runnin' they nylons Reveal flesh to test cuz I love bruisin' em Treat my battles like my children, n***a I'm never losin' em (Hey yo, what's that?) You don't know? That's my sound, yo No one can rock it like this We put it down, yo (For who?) Black, white, purple or brown, yo It's Mos, De La and Touch We hold the crown, yo (Yo, what's that?) You don't know? That's my sound, yo No one can rock it like this We put it down, yo Black, white, purple or brown, yo All my street folk C'mon gather around yo [Trugoy the Dove] The only Spanish I knew was dame un beso Caught b**hes with n***as who nettin' the peso Y'all breathin on beats like this? If you say so I stay sippin on god theories Yo where the case, yo Weight falls on fourth floors like film edits f** saying the name, y'all read it in the credits Sit down and on my lyrics We servin n***as up some beans and rice Everything is everything Heavy metal thing Rock with Mos and Pos diners Written flows get broke down by the commas From here to I lawn Green sh** up in my wallet Fly to warm places and get red like scarlet How I dollar I just earn the save So when the itchy itchy come I satisfy the crave And let it fall a little too much I let Tone Touch my ears To make the bullsh** disappear [Tony Touch] Pa' fuera Tu no sabes? Mi manera Native Tongues puttin it down Donde quiera De La, Mos Def with a candela De Borinquen Que bonita bandera Respect the architect Or be next to catch a vela Send y'all all runnin home to your abuela Catch wreck over a beat Or accapella Kick a wicked rhyme like a fortune teller This fella Se pone feo quando llego I still be shoutin out cats in San Diego I'm still in effect and I'm still doing the huevo I'll still be puttin it down til I'm a viejo Man you can't tell me nuttin' about the juego I told you all s**ers before Leggo my eggo Yet you insist upon playin with fuego But I catch you on the rebound Hasta luego Pendejo [Chorus] (Que Eso?) Tu no sabes? Mis sonidos Siempre ganamos Nunca perdimos (Para quien?) Blanco, negro, latino del mundo Cuando multo Que profundo (Que Eso?) Tu no sabes? Mis sonidos Siempre ganamos Nunca perdimos (Para quien?) Blanco, negro, latino Gorillos All those street folks Yo bonito
