The R - Eric B. & Rakim

Whoever underestimated  still waited 
Pumping the radio  finally they played it 
You wondered how come the album was late 
I was giving you time to get the last one straight  
The show must go on  I got something to dance to 
Slow it down and romance to and give me a chance to 
Keep you in tune and up to par..... 
Then you're doing it with the R... 
Doing it wit the R.... 

Something new and to keep you doing what'cha doing 
This is for you and your crew and for who in 
The vicinity, I don't need no identity 
I see hands in the air that means many be 
Cooperating, I can't stop relating 
Hip-hop is making more sense when I'm stating 
Paragraphs of potential to prevent you 
From using my instrumental, keep in mind I meant to 
Illustrate another iller break immediately 
Hurry up and learn the words and repeat it wit me 
Then soon you're in tune and up to par 
And then you're doing it wit the R... 
Keep doing it, you keep doing it wit the R.... 

In the Summertime, pockets bulging 
Somethings's happening then I'm indulging 
Music is mine, Gucci seats reclined, 
Gold grill, a paint job will shine.. 
Pull up in the park and then pop the trunk 
Turn up the bass and let the system thump 
A block party starts to form, people start to swarm 
Loud as a ghetto blaster, word is bond 
Records remind you of a madness 
The moment it's played, you get gladdest 
The return of the brother, keeping you up to par 
And you're doing it wit the R..... 

Shout outs.................
