Round trip
2008 (long time coming, ain't it?)
Full circle (Statik Selektah)
Round and round, round we go
Round trip, common (Showoff!)
One upon a time not long ago
There was some kids for Mass that just wanted to flow
We would break dance, DJ and MC
Now I'm showing my age (we started back in the 90s)
When the rappin' was grimy and the beats was raw
Linoleum on the floor and graffiti on the wall
Fast forward now and we all got catalogue
And been around the world doin shows and tours
Put our city on the map and we opened the doors
For the next generation, made it easy for y'all
So much changed, we all got kids and cribs
Grew up poor but made sure our children never did
Showoff versus everybody, legendary parties
Ladies in lingerie, we puffin' the Bob Marley
Tore it down with my brothers from the stage to the booth
Hip-hop, you the life of my life and that's true
Yeah, words limited, blurred images, sure to reminisce the urge
When this here track finished, it's time served
Sentences benefitted from what I observed
Pure proof in the hangover, pain over
Nerve of us, beefin' in the elevator, tryna separate us
Still emotion be a part of our greatness
Please concur, Grim Creeper talk, keep a pole for the law
Hardcore recording in the BX, me and T blessed
And the rest is history, drink champs 'fore the podcast
Symmetry, may our past remind y'all
Chemistry is born in the cypher, a cypher is a circle
A circle full when it's universal
Keep showin' off
Let's journey back to all the pain, all the hurt inside
If you had a verse, had to be the first in line
Showoff basement, we was all servin' time
Boston to NY, it was worth the ride
Eyes in my rearview, we made classics
Music was never off, we was awake rappin'
Up late, 2008, we stay craftin'
Head pounding, full circle, like an aspirin
Nowadays, the facts is this
After 16 years, we'll be rappin' my bid
There'll be no spell my name right, no stick to the script
Showoff is the label, round trip
One love, my brother Statik, God bless your heart
My somewhat rap career, you an integral part
Gave me your platform so I could spread my art
Fuck what they heard, it's Showoff 'til death do us part
From hundreds at shows, getting drunk with my bros
We in that basement going dumb with the flows
Beats from Premier, even 9th Wonder, I owe to my brother for sure
To wild times where we was almost comin' to blows
Fuck it, it's under the rug
Take the good with the bad, the bad get trumped by the love
Fill a glass, raising up for my Bruv, Reks, JFK, Term too
We had to bring it full circle
Round and round, round we go
Full, full, full, full circle
Round and round, round we go
I'm showing off with Statik (full circle)
All I got left in the end is my bβbest friends
And we're all goin' out (full, full circle)
Round and round, round we go
I'm showing off with Statik (full circle)
You showing off? I'm showing off
This is DJ Premier
And Showoff records is all real (real, real, real, real)
Grim Creepers! (Let's creep)
What do you do?
I just go from place to place and, do what I do best
What's that? (Sh-Sh-Showoff)
There is not a cause for alarm
(They, uh, many of the things that
What we said where 100% correct)
I am officially declaring a national emergency
It's okay (go ahead, I'll see you)
Everyone's okay (okay, uh, Statik Selektah)
It's okay (it will be okay)
Everyone's okay (round trip)
It's okay (it's okay, oh)
It's okay (okay)
It's okay
Everyone's okay (round trip)
It's okay
2008 (long time coming, ain't it?)
