Live It Up Lyrics by Erick Onasis

Def Squad Presents Erick Onasis

2000

[Intro: Redman]
A motherfucker's gotta get live, baby
Live, baby; live, baby; live, baby
Live, baby; live, baby; live, baby; live, baby
Live, baby; live, baby; live, baby; live, baby
Live, baby; live, baby; live, baby; live, baby

[Verse 1: Khari]
Introduction, Khari makes shit wet like 90 degrees
Summer nights of passionate raw fuckin'
Physical frame slim, you mention my name in
Your verse and you might be leaving the earth flamin'
Shit changed when I came in, niggas stopped smilin'
Started hatin' and wishin' my chest would get caved in
But why? Probably 'cause I'm too much to clutch, too fly
Cats divided, findin' cuts to hide in
Scared like a bunch of little skirts and gettin' work
Or gettin' they delicate feelings hurt
But run around, chain danglin', grippin' your nuts
Big baller nigga 'til you slip and get stuck
Then I truncate the break, break fools and take schools
Of MC's get sprayed through so bad it'll make news
Reported that you got slaughtered the only description
You got ripped by some tall kid look like an Egyptian

[Chorus: Redman]
Yo, we want y'all to liven it up
Before I do
We want y'all to get fucked up
Before I do
We want y'all to get the money
Before I do
We want y'all to get high, high, high
Before I do
Yo, we want y'all to liven it up
Before we do
We want y'all to get fucked up
Yo, before I do
We want y'all to get the money
Yo, before we do
Yo, we want y'all to get high, high, high
Yo, yo, before we do

[Verse 2: Erick Sermon]
Yeah live it up now before I do
With my new millennium gat, mines is blue
Platinum clip, cock it back, load the chips
Smart bullet, and mark the name before I pull it
Hip-hop the shit, it run through my blood
Fake thug, that ain't dirt, you ran through mud
I'm what rap was, and what it be
The lyrical, mystical, live MC
Ayy, you rap subliminal
Rock hard shit, you a mineral
Lab rapper made by chemicals
Me, I'm nice when it comes to material
Like Redman, I should have my own cereal
E new sheriff in rap, Reggie Hammond it
How the hell you get backstage with no laminate?
Area restricted from those MC's that's not gifted
Amateur night show, you missed it

[Chorus: Redman]
We want y'all to liven it up
Yo, before I do
We want y'all to get fucked up
Yo, before we do
We want y'all to get the money
Before I do
We want y'all to get high, high, high
Before we do
We want y'all to liven it up
Before I do
We want y'all to get fucked up
Yo, before we do
We want y'all to get the money
Before I do
We want y'all to get high, high, high
Before we do

[Outro: Redman]
Yo, we want y'all to get fucked up
