Verses from the Abstract - The Low End Theory[00:00:00]
I had a dream about my man last night[00:00:00]
And my man came by the studio[00:00:02]
And his name is[00:00:07]
Busta Rhymes in effect Shaheed is in effect[00:00:08]
Phife Did-awg is in effect[00:00:14]
Check it out and give me my' spect[00:00:17]
I'm moving yes I'm grooving[00:00:20]
'Cuz my mouth is on the motor[00:00:21]
Use the Coast in the morning[00:00:22]
To avoid the funky odor[00:00:24]
Can't help being funky[00:00:25]
I'm the funky Abstract brotha[00:00:26]
Funky in a sense but I play the undacova[00:00:28]
Once had a fetish fetish for some booty[00:00:31]
Now I'm getting funky[00:00:33]
And my rapping that's my duty[00:00:34]
Brothas tend to jock on the style in particular[00:00:36]
If you got the ego like some brothas[00:00:39]
Then I'll get with ya[00:00:40]
But if I don't pursue[00:00:41]
Then I just don't give[00:00:42]
My motto in the 90's is be happy making bucks[00:00:44]
Girls love the jim 'cuz it causes crazy friction[00:00:47]
When it goes up in and fluctuates the diction[00:00:50]
I still understand the uh[00:00:52]
'Cuz that's what I met her for[00:00:53]
I'm hooked on the swings[00:00:55]
So just call me the music whore[00:00:56]
Women love the voice brothas dig the lyrics[00:00:58]
Quest the people's choice[00:01:01]
We thrive it for the spirit[00:01:02]
If you can't hear it[00:01:03]
Then get the wax utensils[00:01:05]
Write my rhymes straight up[00:01:06]
Don't get with no fancy stencil[00:01:07]
The rhymes we get is sweet[00:01:09]
We stay away from tart[00:01:10]
A perfectionist at work[00:01:11]
Perking up the art[00:01:13]
If you want to battle[00:01:14]
I suggest you check your clock[00:01:16]
Your demise is coming up[00:01:17]
And I want your man to watch[00:01:18]
Be the prime example[00:01:20]
I deep instilled the sample[00:01:21]
Insignificance here[00:01:22]
I'll place you on the mantle[00:01:24]
Born up in Harlem reside down in Jamaica[00:01:25]
The girl I used to rock[00:01:28]
Her moms was a claker[00:01:29]
Now what does that make her[00:01:31]
The evil money taker[00:01:32]
The crazy move faker[00:01:34]
I used that to break her[00:01:35]
Phife is in the house[00:01:36]
Uncle Mike is in the house[00:01:39]
Bob Power is in the house[00:01:42]
Tim Latham is in the house[00:01:44]
Wise Men is in the house[00:01:47]
The Brand Nubes is in the house[00:01:50]
The Jay Bee they in the house and De La[00:01:53]
They in the house[00:01:56]
I must regroup my thoughts[00:01:58]
And kick the next ones for my people[00:01:59]
Please don't be deceived by ugly slice of evil[00:02:01]
The world is kinda cold and the rhythm is my blanket[00:02:04]
Wrap yourself up in it[00:02:06]
If you love it then you'll thank it[00:02:07]
Don't move to rebuttal[00:02:09]
Wave your hand for action[00:02:11]
Some women in the '90's want more than satisfaction[00:02:12]
They want keys and Gs[00:02:14]
And all those illy things[00:02:16]
If you want to I'll show you[00:02:17]
Just what the Ab can bring[00:02:19]
I keep a tight net with my brothas Ken and Kenny[00:02:20]
If the question is of rhymes[00:02:23]
Then I'll tell ya I got plenty[00:02:24]
The thing that men and women[00:02:26]
Need to do is stick together[00:02:27]
Progressions can't be made[00:02:28]
If we're separate forever[00:02:30]
I hooked this funky beat with[00:02:31]
The loop and the feature[00:02:32]
Is the funky singing by Miss Vinia Mojica[00:02:34]
So listen because the Quest[00:02:36]
Is led through the underground[00:02:38]
My people have been oppressed too long[00:02:39]
No more will[00:02:41]
People tend to riff 'cuz they don't know the mental[00:02:42]
People tend to bug 'cuz their beats are hard but gentle[00:02:45]
Afro kinda lurks through the body of this youngun'[00:02:47]
Play like Bobby Byrd on your back and your coming to[00:02:50]
The house of the jazz[00:02:53]
Of the funk of the rhythm[00:02:54]
All the goods are welcome[00:02:56]
But if you're a villaing[00:02:57]
I'll just wait and debate[00:02:58]
Contemplate your arrival[00:03:00]
If flexing is your motive[00:03:01]
Then you don't like survival[00:03:02]
The Abstract is speaking[00:03:04]
The hard beats is reaching[00:03:05]
The Black and Puerto Ricans[00:03:07]
'Cuz their butt naked[00:03:08]
Streaking through the ever murky streets[00:03:09]
Of the urbanized areas[00:03:11]
Blasting out the speakers is the hip hop hysteria[00:03:12]
Craig is in the house[00:03:15]
