Rocking Down, Mississippi
by
wordslingAH, Da Kid! all UP! in Yah SoulZone.


other night A was dreaming
of swamp stomping
in some waist wader boots

'cause ain't no place
on PLANET ROCK
for HIP-HOP
A wouldn't troop

neard 'bout this Juke-Joint
called "ROCK N DOWN MISS'IPPI"
Southern Palace built by
Badu, Mia X and Missy

Hardcore is the law
sheriff's The Lady of Rage
and Lauryn Hill see I.C. Red
'fore She let a weak-heart grace da stage

If you ain't got Monie
can't get none Lil Kim's Love
Jazzy Joyce rules the one-twos
beats sent by MC Trouble on wings of doves

Forever Conscious Daughters
Out Da West come Yo-Yo and Michel'le
Ms Melody got The Wisdom of The Ages
all 'bout way back in da day

mess 'round fewl, if that's yah delight
but make show when da sun go down
all Her percentages staright
by the time Queen Latifah come thru town

stay alert crossing BlackStreet
or you may get run through by Queen Pen
watch for Suga-T on the dough-low
with Her Cali-Crew of Count-The_Money-Men

you can close your eyes to this reality
but Sister Souljah will still smell yah fear
Bahamadia's in yah ear
MC Lyte is in yah air

The Brat allows no whiners
you pay penance to Mother Superia
dazzled by their tomboy BEAUTY
lyrically booming like Jiggy-Gee's big bass drummer

Salt-n-Pepa in yah eyes
Sandy ropes you for a Spin
Sheena Lester bin tried to warn yah
this da wrong toem for a playah-hatah to try win

no hope for escape
realize you didn't recognize from the start
it's a new millinea, Sisters run Terrodome
A Man is now The Measure of His Heart

A awoke refreshed beaming
and left out Carol City to go collect Ma Grind loot
all the while smiling while thinking
'bout swamp stomping in some waist wader boots
