We from the school, the School of Hard Knocks Round' up suckaz knock 'em, knock 'em out the box
Graduate at 13, the streets made me a scholar Flood the microphone, one by one, hear 'em holler The sure shoots, rock box, rhymin' on blasted beats Mics on my side, they call me, Hip Hop Along Cassidy
Rap' catastrophe but only time will tell Could we excel and rock bells like LL Made me feel I was ill, music euphoria Went to the doctor, D.O.C. gave me the formula
Hey, young world, the world is yours You kept me straight when times got hard So, let me reminisce over you, my God Old school, bring it back
We from the school, the School of Hard Knocks Round' up suckaz, knock 'em, knock 'em out the box

Reminiscent, all up in this
I came through the door, I said it before We pioneers, redefining hardcore You want more MC's and DJ's Dues we pays, 8 out of 7 days
In many ways, I've seen a lot go around Pound for pound from SD to Boogie Down We've been around 'bout as round as they come From all yes y'all's, to dum, ditty, dum, dum
See, this is philosophy on the industry That there ain't no other brothaz 'bout as bad as we You see my squad stays on point Rock this funky joint, can you dig it?
Party people in the place

Dance well to the funky sound To make some noise and scream out loud
