Technotronic - Tough 1989

Better be tough

I have a special little start,
so I'm words within pride,
and something that I never hide,
Is the way that I ride.
A bass line or a snare or a bass drum, suckers come
naturally 'cause I have originality.
E is never scared now you know I'm prepared
is it the same story? You got something for me?
Nah, I've got something for you: it's positivity.
Negative I never give or maybe you're dissing me.
On account of the fact that me;
I'm who you're listening, real.
And this the just the way I feel.
The deal is to respect the other man's view,
but the other man's view is just to hang with the crew and do nothing.
Whenever they talk they just bluffing.
Unless, of course, they're discussing a theft.
I'm all fine, my answer to this is final,
I drop the signs 'til there ain't none left to drop.

To bad
It's got to be so damn tough
Better be tough

I used to rhyme in a time when I was carefree,
and with a carefree attitude I knew I didn't have to prove anything.
Didn't have to pawn any diamond ring
because I didn't have the cash and I don't commit sins
to obtain immaterial benefits yo.
The harder my work, the more I had to pay so,
became a man as a youngster spreading out positive vibes
to little punks that busted.
Couple of brothers were also microphone lovers,
in the days you could lie to your mothers
to stay out late to lie to others.
In my home town we were the best fit.
That's why when I'm on top, you're arrested now.
You think you're good to go,
but you can't go because I'm rocking the hole.
I've been snapped up, by the record company, you jealous?
Been slapped up, even your girl she cracked up
with laughter. Hearing your ridiculous statements.
Me and Technotronic, in terror basements.
Peace
