Swiftness Lyrics by Craig G

Now, That’s More Like It

1991

[Intro:sample]
Alright, that`s it, let`s roll

[Craig G]
Yeah X7

(Come on)X7

Yo, this is Craig G and I want to send this song out to all the brothers that think I can`t get with it on the rhyme tips and we`re gonna swing it like this

[1 Verse]
Rappers...now of course they get with me
Cause straight up they know that we turn away quickly
And if they can kick it, well i`m gonna kick it dumber
Drain MCs as if my rhymes were liquid plumber
See what i`m saying: dopeness is essential
Whether a cappella, over an instrumental
Craig G coming swift like a Pegasus
Able to kill all the art that`s known for negativeness
I rhyme so smooth you`d think my style was heavenly
But you`re battling like we`re in the 70`s
You should chill and listen to the song first
Before I play ya like you`re a new pair of Converse
So, yo, sit back, grab a snack
I will be here for a while, cause you`re whack
I`m determent to be a rap legend
And i`m paying my dues, so there`s no need for boot-licking
Craig G drop like a safe to your skull
The crowd will be sweet, cause I`m far from being dumb
I drop rhymes that roll on ya like boulders
It will keep you up like twelve cups of Folgers
So, yeah, pull up soft drink and lunches
I`ve got something real funky going on here
I`ve got spirit like a team on a win streak
I put my microphone up and I then speak
And to your ego, pain I will administer
Then drop one more rhyme to make sure that I finish ya
And on that note, no way you should go on
Cause I be wrecking things from and so on with the swiftness

[Hook]
(Come on)
Yeah, with the swiftness
(Come on)
Yeah, with the swiftness
(Come on)
Uh-huh, with the swiftness
(Come on)
With the swiftness
Sing it

[2 Verse]
Now back to verse two
You. You wanna battle me, I hope you got a crew
Or better yet, forget it, my son
I`ve got records you don`t, so who won?
Uh, me, MC Craig G, the royal
I will make a record, so your jealousy boils
But see, competition, there ain`t none
My rhymes are like shotguns, your shoot like paint guns
So, yo, won`t you take a breather
And when I`m rhyming don`t say nothing either
Because you might get smacked to the jaw
Back to the floor then I will send ya to the store
For set of new drama
Because they way he sound I gotta diagnose ya with Alzheimer`s
Cause he, freeze, get a six pack, tilt your head back
And you might get the knack, huh, for swiftness

[Hook]
(Come on)
Yeah, you might get the knack, for swiftness
(Come on)
Yeah, you might get the knack for the swiftness
(Come on)

[Outro]
Yo, I would like to send this one out to everybody in the Bridge, everybody that looked out on this album and all the MC`s that think I can`t get with it, i`m out
