This is where you got it from
Anybody who's down with
the hip -hop scene
And believe they know the
music and what it mean
Or the different
DJs and the way they cut it
If you don't, listen up, a whole lot of
DJs said they're ready to go
for some unapparent reason.
Ask me, I'll never know before the music
is over and the record is done.
You
DJs will know this is where you
gotta try.
Now he developed the scratch
quick mix to crossfade.
Flash is legendary for his style of display.
Now here's a typical scratch
Scratch the record back and forth
The man is never mad
In fact, now check out the fade
And the impact on the music he made
With no real concept on how to create
It's a pity you strive to imitate
But
Flash is rockin' the mix
And it was done like this
back in 76
This is where you got it from
Master
Mixology,
Mr.
Technology
It's not technology,
so say your apologies
Alibis, beliefs and lies,
explanations and excuses
It's lifeless, you should be too,
this word is born
The way he performs,
he's like a storm at the crack
I don't want to get into some porn,
but he's on
Like popcorn,
do something out of the norm
Flash,
Autobot
Flash, transform!
Think of the keys to latch,
think of the frames to match
You got a magic flash,
swing that scratch!
If you're a sucker,
they like to bring trouble up
No pressure boy,
Flash double up!
Now you want his autograph,
don't make me laugh
Western
Union,
Flash, send him a telegraph
Made you a fiend, got you on a pipe dream
Def
Nard, dope lean, narcotic codeine
The dope mix is danger,
he got a new cut
It's called the
Long
Ranger.
He's renowned for the sound,
the cuts, they occur.
Splice, slice, a dice,
hands moving, a burr.
His speed is not debated,
the essence of fast.
You're a pretender, so surrender,
you'll never surpass
Now it's known throughout the
planet that he did it first
Law in all the galaxies spread
throughout the universe
You're just a sucker,
you ain't in his class
He's synonymous with the
Grandmaster
Flash
What more
can I say?
You got
Flash in the mix
He master all trade, know all the tricks
So dope, I know you need a fix
You wish you had cash around
Flash
Said you can't get rid of me,
you lack validity
On the wheels of steel,
he's the epitome
Can't beat,
but you never felt the beat
You're right, brats,
now scratch that beat
Now that you know you're
a broken down bunk
Tell the truth, young punk,
where did you get it from?
This is where you got it from
This is where you got it from!
