Lyrics
0:01Bass for your face highs for your eyes
0:03Don't blink Black Ink has arrived all rise
0:05Rudebwoys keep dem thing at your side be alright
0:08Muh'f**kers Philly we up in here we all live
0:11I'm puffin this Cohiba mami coolin her heels
0:13All she ever seem to do is play it cool f'real
0:16She be pushin pop vessel
0:17And her shoes is ill
0:19But her hand keep slippin on the woodgrain wheel
0:21But it's cool we never slippin
0:23When there's moves to make
0:24Especially when what we talkin ain't ya usual cake
0:26I pump bass for y'all bathin apes to get charged
0:29Nah I'm not a dealer I'm a poet at large
0:32We in the wind with the roof back
0:34Lettin the breeze hit us
0:35The bathrobe on with sweatpants and slippers
0:37Comin to pay a visit to whoever on the hitlist
0:40Some of y'all been tryin for years
0:42You'll never get this fool
0:44Check it out (stay cool) stay cool daddy (stay cool)
0:47Stay cool ma (hey hey) c'mon
0:49(Stay cool motherf**kers y'all know the rules)
0:52(Hey stay cool stay cool)
0:58There it is (Yeah hah hah stay coooool)
1:04Hip-Hop my main b**ch
1:04I got a few on the side
1:06The game stitched y'all I'm doin my job
1:08Go up against enormous odds
1:09Wouldn't break a sweat money make her bet
1:11Funny son you threat
1:13Well I ain't shakin yet
1:14Twenty-fo'/sev' chillin
1:15Tougher than penicillin
1:16From the block where the crooked
1:18Cops killin like a villain
1:19Children in the hood gettin rocked by they buildings
1:21And brothers cross the board gettin knocked by the millions
1:24The stress got me ignitin the potent m*******a leaf
1:27Tryin to play it cooler than a polar bear colony
1:29You feel the music know I'm over there probably
1:32Pimpin on the same system that forever shorted me
1:34I got the soul of a young Sam Cooke when I spit
1:38It make you wanna make a new dance up
1:40It's all to the good shorty 'gwan do that stuff
1:43It's not another sound system rockin steady as us
1:44And it's cool
1:46(Stay cool) yeah (stay cool) stay cool ha
1:49(Hey hey) check it out and just
1:51(Stay cool motherf**kers y'all know the rules) yeah
1:53(Hey stay cool stay cool)
2:01(Yeah hah hah stay coooool)
2:06Yeah when I'm crusin in my vehicle
2:08The chase harass me
2:08They never ride past me
2:10They really comin at me right
2:11They wanna know where the drugs guns and cash be
2:14Probably wanna get me to run
2:16So they can blast me
2:17Just blast me in your box play my sh*t
2:19I know it's crowded at the top
2:20Cause I'm on the tip
2:21And that's as high up at the top
2:23As a brother could get
2:24And how I do it make a lot of muh'f**kers upset
2:26But it's fine re-gizzlin I'm back for mine
2:29In case y'all gettin tired of the same ol' shine
2:32And I'm calm calculated and perfectly aligned
2:34The way I'm operatin what is a surgery of rhyme
2:37It's not a thang when I lower the gradient lens frames
2:39I'm cooler than Clyde Stubblefield drummer for James
2:42Hip-Hop is out of Hustleville comin for change
2:45I exercise 'til a muscle build breakin the chains
2:47And I'm cool
2:49(Stay cool) (stay cool) (hey hey)
2:53(Stay cool motherf**kers y'all know the rules)
2:55(Hey stay cool stay cool)
3:04(Yeah hah hah stay coooool)
