I Got The Knack Lyrics

I Got The Knack

I Got The Knack



You got it (13x)



Get up everybody and listen to this rhyme

My name is Everlast and yo I'm always on time

I got what it takes to make this groove complete

When my DJ cuts he's never missin' a beat

I'm down with the Syndicate and they're down with me

I'm also down with Divine, Bilal and Quincy D

Terry B., DJ Lethal and my brother Kool Nick

Kid Jazz, Scratch, Bangle and Cut Master Quick

I worked hard and long to master this traight

And to quote my other song, yo I'm just out to get paid



So sleep on me now,

For my time will come

Everlast lasts forever

That's why I'm number one



I got the knack (7x)



Everlast is in effect, gettin' full respect

I collect big checks, 1's, 5's, 10's, 20's, a 100 G's

I'm pullin' honey's left and right, day and night

You gotta see it to believe it, it's quite a sight

There all on my tip to get a sip of this poetic performer

I can get whipped but I'm out to get paid, not to get laid

All across the country my records gettin' played

The radio stations, clubs and renkores

All the shows I play I make them do encores



So sleep on me now,

For my time will come

Everlast lasts forever

That's why I'm number one



I got the knack (5x)



(Ah, yah, hit me, alright, check this out)

Step up place your bet and I'll serve your fortune

But first I must issue just one word of caution

Dope lyric presentations are my soul notiriety

Everlast is on the rise movin' through society

My voice is moist resighting choice vocals

Respected world wide and feared by locals

Poppin' junk out your punk mouth

Makin' bets it's too late for regrets

It's time to pay your debts, E-v-e-r-l-a-s-t

It's the name that I fed a poetic demigod with skin that is fare



I got the knack (10x)



Now there are too many people in this world tryin' to play me

Like I'm some kind of sucker constantly they disobey me

Tellin' me what's sellin', what kinda records be charted

Sound like him, sound like her but they all sound retarded

Takin' very little time to write down a rhyme

It's confusing to see so many people so fly

Some think that it's a sell out rhymin' to this beat

But Everlast takes any groove and makes it sound complete



I got the knack!
