Stinkin' Rich/Buck65 - The Ba**ment lyrics

Artist: Stinkin Rich/Buck 65 Album: Weirdo Magnet Song: The Ba**ment Are you ready? The Ba**ment, the transmission - Critical, consult a physician Before you try to knock me outta position Diggin' in the top secret vaults where the vinyl's stored To make you snap your neck so hard you break your spinal cord The push-bu*ton DJs be getting all emotional Because they going broke, but my copies are promotional You never see a wack piece of wax move in this direction Heavy on the backspins to satisfy the disc-connection Kids like gangsta rap, 'cause they desire violence Others wanna hook up with the hoes, like fire hydrants Few know the problems that the DJ uniquely faces Even the troopers that tune in on a weekly basis Companies act like they try to keep hardcore & live But really only want a record in the top four or five Y'all kiss a** to be all in the spots But the radio DJs be calling the shots! [scratched sample, sounds like Kool Keith] Wack MCs, I'm in the basement! x 4 The record label reps try to act like they're team players But never set the focus any deeper than the CREAM layer Every package sent comes with a notation Saying "Give us a top five and heavy rotation" I'd rather pressure my own fresh set of dub plates Than push for a ten minute spot in the club dates True indeed, though, sometimes I can't hide the fever The phattest joints get me open like a wide reciever Some kid coming up clean with a unique flow Is just enough to turn the whole sh** into a freak show Give me an a capela mix on the flip side And kids get - swept away with the riptide A wannabe, sh** talkin' MC thinks he's allowed To get live on air, and rhyme and yo, freeze a crowd From back in the get fresh, early days, I knew it was A sh**ty-a** job at times... But someone's gotta do it [Keith scratched] Now everybody wants to be in the spot where it's real But they all just be riding my jock, like it's a Ferris wheel I mean, if you wanna freak-freak and stick the dick in it Get in the groove to bust a nut in a quick minute Better change the program, or take it to the doormat To knock boots, 'cause slow jams ain't in the format [Masta Ace sample] "This be the hardcore, dirty street level sh**" YOU GOTTA BE DRUNK, LOOKING FOR G-FUNK! All of that sh** is up in the attic area So step back, unless you wanna break the static barrier You want mercy? Then look to the Lord and pray But if you wanna suffer, then just press record and play The Ba**ment with two "s"s, cla**ics and new presses No rest for the weary, or devils in blue dresses I'm breakin' backs of those fakin' jacks The underground station... With no cracks in the foundation
