The 2 Live Crew - 2 Live Is What We Are

1, 2, 1, 2
I am the dominating Fresh Kid Ice
And I am the Brother Marquis, Marquis your brother
And introducing to you on the two turntables
The Treach DJ Mr. Mixx
Word, word, word, word, word

We get the red carpet treatment 'cause we're well respected
Always accepted and never rejected
Our defense is made when we take the stage
The crowd gets excited and goes in a rage

'Cause we're generating and demonstrating
All of the talents that we're accumulating
And by doing this we'll go real far
Because 2 Live is what we are

We're highly publicized and advertised
Our music's in your ear, our face in your eyes
We're good to go and goin' to be good
We've done the right thing like you knew we would

Because we are here for your dancing pleasure
With our microphones 'cause that's what we treasure
Now, the man, you see, who has hands of magic
His name is Mr. Mixx, so come on an' scratch it

You can call me Brother Marquis, Marquis your brother
The T E S T, I pass with with flying colors
I'm capable and on the case
Gettin' straight to the point, with no time to waste

The point is that this party needs to be rocked
With drummin' thumpin' beats around the clock
From odds to outspoken to opinionated
In need of a rhyme, I will create it

The best is yet to come with much, much more
You got me rockin' you with my rhymes galore
Now, my rhymes won't stop, my rhymes won't quit
Just give me the mic and I rock it

On to the break of dawn
I will rock y'all to the early morn
'Cause I'm the demonstrating, the dominating
Annihilator, brutalor, MC-hating

So, all MC's must step on off
'Cause I'm lettin' you know who's the boss
Now, Kid Ice, you know you're twice as nice
Why don't you get up on the mic and start to recite?

'Cause they call me Kid Ice, the ladies' fire
When I enter a room, ladies fill we desire
Anytime I'm good, yes, on the mic
I said the girls keep comin' back every night

'Cause I dress so fresh, my voice is clean
I can rock party people, yes, even the Queen
In England, Germany, France and Japan
The ladies know that I'm the man

Who keep 'em from the kitchen, just doin' their dishes
'Cause I have 'em in bed fulfillin' their wishes
I got a degree in makin' love
Yes, I got it from my father just up above

I could take a girl from any man
With a twitch of my lips or wave of a hand
So, to all you guys out there tonight
Grab your girl, hold her tight

Say treat her with respect and treat her right
'Cause I might be in town for just one night

Word
Do it

1, 2, 3, 4, 4
5, 6, do it, do it
We're, we're, we're here
We're back, back, back, back

Back
Back
Back
