Ain't Sayin' Nothin' New
The Roots

What the fuck, what what what?

Nuttin' new, nuttin' new

What? Nuttin' new check

Nuttin' new, nuttin' new, y'all not sayin' nuttin' new

I represent the legendary fifth dynasty crew

Nuttin' new, nuttin' new, y'all not sayin' nuttin' new

Nuttin' new, nuttin' new, y'all not sayin', check shit out

It's nuttin' new, nuttin' new, y'all not sayin' nuttin' new

Nuttin' new, nuttin' new


Ghetto related with this hit the whole world awaited

Y'all dorito-head cats that yak and stagnated

Black thought, the Doug E. most war vete-ran

Crown ruler, soul controller of this lyrical land

Spliff wizard kid, who is it?

Fifth dinosaur ghetto, beat detonator

Apex my level, next, my complex pattern of speech is like sex

I mastered the art of makin' you snap the necks


And chase Manhattan endorse my mic checks

Upset, poet threat

Just collectin' my debt, yo I'm overpaid in dues

Blood tears and sweat, when you fuckin' with the roots

That's as good as it get, ultra magnet

We pull you in a drag-net then brainwash your click

And extort your assets, then roadie all your homies

On some old school shit, roots crew represent


Life's a gamble, step up and place your bets

I drift through space, then make my escape on through the 'net

With CD's, cassettes, no C.O.D.'s or checks

Straight from the old school, aiyyo raw's in full effect

I'm like, Lex Luthor with rifles filled with kryptonite

When you grip the mic it's like c'mon kids, let's say goodnight

You don't like me but don't even know why should you hate me

You scared to face these so I still remain safely


Confidin', north phil' where I'm residin'

Never let an outside nigga slide in

This ain't home plate, I dunk on you once inside the paint

Flow like this you can't, take me you out, you ain't


Nuttin new, nuttin new, y'all not sayin nuttin new

Nuttin new, nuttin new, y'all not sayin nuttin new

Nuttin new, nuttin new, tell me what you could do

Yo we drop the funk, and do the shit


Yo, head lost, sippin' this limbic framboise

Spittin' it for like whoever demand the answer

What's the cure for this hip-hop cancer? Equivalent

To this avalanche of black snow, rap flow

To get my people thinkin' mo', we at the brink of war

What does it all mean? What's it all for?

With knowledge of yourself, then you're through the first door

My people hungry and thirst for more next music explore



It's heavenly to your ebony daughter next door

So what you think the roots get the world respect for?

The splendid authentic hip-hop that's raw core

Severe, world premier, a superior sophomore

No doubt, wherever you dwell, that's where the bomb fell

Explodin' from the imperial en-sem-ble, for real

From the ven-ue to the avenue

We truly only got respect for a few, y'all ain't sayin' nuttin' new


Nuttin' new, nuttin' new, y'all not sayin' nuttin' new

Represent the legendary fifth dynasty crew

Roots crew comin' through, tell me what you could do

Yo you lookin' for me? Nah we lookin' for you

Nuttin' new, nuttin' new, y'all not sayin' nuttin' new

Represent the legendary with nuttin' to do

For you yo, lyrical one two

Blow up y'all, it's nuttin' new, nuttin' new


Look at y'all you just a army ant, I'm a gi-ant, arm fist

King of my city, runnin' this shit, just like a ty-rant

Y'all clowns know what I meant, that's if we at war

Then my henchmen, will be at your back door, uhh

Waitin', wise at debatin', trippin' over legos

Runnin' up the steps and lookin' for a weapon

But you come out wavin' a white flag, that's why

I just back slap that ass like shaq did ostertag


Either take me or be taken, you think I'm goin' down?

Psych, the jury, they're still deliberatin'

I got half of they kids, tied up in a basement

Nah I'm just playin' yo but that's how I'm playin' doe

Dig what I'm sayin yo? D I C E

Shove a mic in your mouth, like Ted Dibiase

When you come sloppy, fuck is y'all tryin' to do?

Y'all into, some wack shit, and ain't sayin' nuttin' new


Nuttin' new, nuttin' new, y'all not sayin' nuttin' new

Represent the legendary fifth dynasty crew

Roots crew comin' through, tell me what you could do

One two, one two, yo we lookin' for you

One two, nuttin' new, y'all not sayin' nuttin' new

Represent, fifty dynasty crew

Check it out, what? well one-two one-two, one-two

Knahmsayin' yo? it's nuttin' new


Nuttin' new, nuttin' new, y'all not sayin' nuttin' new

Represent the legendary fifth dynasty crew

Roots crew, tell me what you could do

You lookin' for me we're lookin' for one-two, one-two

Ha hah hah! Y'all ain't sayin' nuttin' new

Wha-wha-one-two, one-two

Represent the legendary fifth knahmsayin'

Blowin' your vent, yo, content yo, it's like that
