Ego Bruise

[Verse One] Now who rock a party better than J Brown? I kick a dance step and competitors may clown They frown cause they girlfriend surroundin' the kid Who did his time kickin' rhymes and stayed out the of the biz For the duration, killin' the beats my occupation The unreachable dream I've been chasin' You're facing a dude [?] who don't give a fuck About political feuds and [?] get a buck And that's sayin' something from an empty mentality You can pass on ass kissin' and any formalities Me and Dan Z, we passed all that We learned just from what we see and when your ass fall flat Outside your Sony BMG or Hot97 I'll let you in on something, that's just not my heaven Cause what I'm sellin' ain't a sad take on reality Since the beginning put quality before a salary Bitch ass rappers got a problem at this point And it goes without saying, I never put my lips to lit joints Just stay fly, J glide higher than the others And your lady friends make time for lying under my covers When I... [Hook] Uh ah Get right in her boom boom boom It's J.J. Brown on the mic so make room I keep testin' every lesson Educate every guest And it ain't no mystery how I pass on every test And I know it hurts y'all to see those dudes J.B. and Dan Z will make a beat so rude And we don't need no excuse to be so loose With the wit when it hits you get ya ego bruised [Verse Two] When you need a fresh sound, who's the chap you run to? Or the ill scratch kollage, who the cat they come to? It's me And I ain't sayin' nobody could But I sound so frickin' good in every home in your hood It's 5G You're wishin' we'd come through in a clutch You can trust the fine shine on every tune that we touch And you can't really put a price on that dream solution My rap tunes are vacuums that clean pollution From the tables to the mixer to ProTools I fix up a whole pool of new hits with a twist of the old school Surfin' kids in CA to skaters in 'burbs Some say it's absurd the way they all relate to my words They say, "J's got a gift and he know how to use it." It's a fifth of the Stoli's from Louis and soda to smooth it Kill a cut, killa killa who ain't well informed The handsome devil's on a track and he just gettin' warm Girl I'm... [Hook] [Verse Three] I'm lookin' at a chance to change my stars today Tame the mainstream but that sure seems far away I'm on the Brooklyn bound side cause that's where the kid reside [?] 5G what M.I.A. is to Slip And Slide We're hometown players, it feels so great We wreck a show, get the doe and peel away CBGB's had the smartest plan They spent their last night with hip hop's sharpest man That little favor was for ya flavor like Joya I got this Now add the name to ya boy to ya hot list Drop this disc into ya Itunes I ruin every single b-boy tryin' to step up in my room Prom queens, porn queens, they can attest That even when I'm played on cassette I'm labeled the best Oh yes My team, we don't fuck around Unless it's the end of the set shawty I'm glad you stuck around I'm bout to... [Hook]
