Ain’t Takin’ No Shorts Lyrics by Grandmaster Caz

You Need Stitches: The Tuff City Sessions 1982-1988

0

[Verse 1]
Well I'm the toast of both coasts, New York to L.A
Try to step my way, ha, you won't sell a
Cassette, LP, or single, or compact disk and I promise
You'll have hell to pay, don't play the rap ruler
I'll make a fool of a whole school of MCs, new or old
'Cause I'm Fresh, Wild, Fly, and Bold
Weekend, the Heartbreaker, flip and it'll take a
Whole nation of millions to hold me back
When I attack, chalk it up jack
I cut the opposition like a lawn mower
Fast and then slower, ten in a row or
Fifteen or fifty, I'll take 'em all
Three or four at a time, just line 'em up on a wall
And I'll do 'em with no remorse
Have 'еm lost in the sauce, the boss ain't takin' no shorts
I ain't takin' no shorts
[Verse 2]
Thought I was ovеr, tried to pull a fast one
You got the first laugh, I got the last one
Took your best shot, but psyche, you missed
You already bust five, and that was six
Why did you wanna make me a goner?
'Cause now I got a TEC-9 and you're in a corner
Back against the wall, you going out real small
Like a roach with a beeper, so crawl
Over to a phone, call your boys
Bring the mics and bring the noise
Winner takes all, prizes, the loot
Back to back, ten paces, turn around, and shoot
And then bang, and when the smoke is gone
You'll be carried out and I'll carry on
Crown prince of the stage and king of the courts
I'm one bad son of a bitch, and I ain't takin' no shorts
I ain't takin' no shorts
[Verse 3]
I'm a lover, not a fighter, but when I'm mad
I flip, money grip, ha, you think Michael's bad?
I'm like Midas, don't know karate
But nobody beats Midas, nobody
You be the student, I'll be the tutor
It's too cold for shorts and this ain't Bermuda
Shorts I ain't takin', no way, forget it
Go 'head forehead, I ain't with it
South Bronx, New York, I was born and raised there
The old school rule, back in the days where
Your word was bond and you fought with your fists
If you was a punk then you got dissed
Play the sucker role, that's all it took
And soon you'd be a victim of some crook
But I've never been soft, so perish the thoughts
I'm hard as hard, peace God, I ain't takin' no shorts
I ain't takin' no shorts
