[Intro x4]
How can I forget you?

[Slick Rick]
Rick the Ruler, Raekwon, hehe the Chef, check one, two

[Verse 1: Raekwon]
Touch more, taste a glass of oil, flash yours Rick
Money we saw, left 'em dead on the door, dick
Rocks look chunky on the index
Straight up, Lee vets and like old Adidas sweats
We the illest vets

[Verse 2: Slick Rick]
Apologies, even a non-dog holler "He's honor"
Please, appreciate shit I Clark Wallabee's
Brothas wit they fists like oaks wood
Provokes doom, and you're also about to go broke soon

[Verse 3: Raekwon]
Mad current merchants, we nursed it, bad guerillas
Feed us like guaranteed they gon' kill us
Fleein', ninety in a night suit, G-in' white dudes
Hit the locks first, we made a right troop

[Verse 4: Slick Rick]
I'm lushin' Russian women, via satellite I'm watchin'
I dare a nigga say he wanna battle me, I'll crush him
Even blind girls rush next to Hammera and scream out
"Oh my gosh, get the camera"

[Chorus: Raekwon]
Yo, we frozen, lay on, about now we a day on
Ill niggas yellin' "Throw Rick and Rae on"
Hydro, how did I blow, how did I flow?
Did I glow? Let them niggas know

[Verse 5: Slick Rick]
(Yo) Rap wars commence and they kids cause offense
I don't have to say a word and your bitch' drawers are drenched
Didn't say I was gonna murder the fella
But The Ruler got some shit the could stop a herd of gorillas

[Verse 6: Raekwon]
Stressed wit Hollywood hoes, actin' up
Backin' up, what? This yours, what?
Crawlin' in the cut, we Lee Major
Gems on wit Timbs, brims on drawn to lay you up
Layin' in the 'dezvous, what?

[Verse 7: Slick Rick]
Next pull up CEO wit bank books full up
Even though he's overwhelmed, this nigga Rolls Royce pull up
One of the baddest come, noddin' to a Spanish song
Slung, orange Woolridge park and a Savannah pump

[Verse 8: Raekwon]
Severe teaspoons, scary money on the moon
Lampin' wit a big goon, keep shit tight like a kid's room
Big Bird in the driveway, pull it out, Friday
I'm liver that way, I ride only the fly way
Olive-green thinkin', ship sinkin'
Deep-dish thinkin', big fish tank, wrist full of Franklins
This is mock-neck, shark-skin money
'88, summer, read the dunn, dummeries rock dungarees

[Verse 9: Slick Rick]
Punctures his lung, son says "I don't want this"
Even this so-so beat I make monstrous
Lady cops stake to watch pair hoods
"Freeze, you're under arrest, you look mad good"
Hot and don't fret retard who won't let
The new sheriff's in town, what part you don't get?
Rick and Rae are now restorin' the passion
The fashion, the class, I went to work on your ass

[Chorus x2]

Slick Rick

Slick Rick is one of hip hop’s many pioneers who was best known for his abilities in storytelling and iconic eyepatch. In addition to this, he has released a total of 4 albums, all of which charted on the Billboard 200 and collaborated with a multitude of artists in the rap industry.

He was first born in the city of London before relocating to the Bronx when he was 5 years old. Most of his childhood was plagued by the deformity of his left eye which was ultimately caused when a sharp piece of glass struck it at the age of 18 months. To hide this, he donned dark-rimmed eyeglasses while attending local hip-hop shows prior to wearing his eyepatch.

His career in hip-hop began in 1984 when he met Doug E. Fresh and joined his Get Fresh Crew in which he rapped under the moniker, MC Ricky Fresh. A year later, he and the group would release “La Di Da Di”, a single that would skyrocket his and the Get Fresh Crew’s success.
