The Very Best lyrics

[Hook: Mannie Fresh]
Just stand up, hands up, everybody get it (Yeah)
You want that real hip-hop, well, baby, you should hear this (Yeah)
North side, east side, down south, west (Yeah)
And now you are rockin' with the very, very best, go!

[Verse 1: Dee-1]
Backed by the best Mr Freshly
Sparks flyin' when I spit, Lisa Leslie (Woo)
Feel like the more they hate, the more God blessed me
That's why I don't give a puck, Wayne Gretzky
F-E-E-L just how I be comin'
One-hundred miles and running like a child ducking a woman
With a belt up in her hand saying "Boy, I'm 'bout to tear you up"
I used to catch the whippings, now I'm whipping through the cut
Gotta pick my patna up, the whole city proud of us
Keep it realer then real, the only thing allowed of us
Man, they don't know how bad I want this, yo
I wants it more then I wanna breathe, that's why my oxygen low
I'm lockin' the door, that's how I was raised
Time fly, two-hundred years ago, our mommas was slaves
Tick tock, as I glance at my red G-Shock
The flow shock G's like 2Pac, man, Dee too hot

[Hook: Mannie Fresh]
Just stand up, hands up, everybody get it (Yeah)
You want that real hip-hop, well, baby, you should hear this (Yeah)
North side, east side, down south, west (Yeah)
And now you are rockin' with the very, very best, go!
[Verse 2: Dee-1]
I'm in some kind of zone, I ain't tryna leave
I'm like the french apostrophes, I be overseas
Okay, I'm lying, actually, they over East
But me and Mannie out in Houston like some Clover G's
Whippin' up that music, welcome to the movement
I can't die today because my point hasn't been proven
My patna looked at me and said that God is an illusion
But God be all I got admist this heartache and confusion
And if you ain't winning, then you're probably losin'
I'm hip-hop's alarm clock, the industry been snoozing
Talkin' about these mollusks sounding really stupid
Your movement ain't a movement if your movement ain't movin'
Business still boomin', shorty's still jokin'
Ain't nothing change, you know grandma still smokin'
Haters still hating, evil still lurking
God blessed the track, homeboy, that's curtains

[Hook: Mannie Fresh]
Just stand up, hands up, everybody get it (Yeah)
You want that real hip-hop, well, baby, you should hear this (Yeah)
North side, east side, down south, west (Yeah)
And now you are rockin' with the very, very best, go!

[Outro: Yasiin Bey]
You already know, Fresh, Dee-1
Man, let's go, man, the very, very best, you already know
Let's get it, let's go, man, you already know
It bears repeating, the very, very best, you already know
