Derek Jeter Songtext
von Slank

Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo
Yo, what you mean though
The bars full of minerals, I spit Pellegrino
Linked with amigos to counter strike gringos
We pulled out casinos in green El Caminos, it′s like that
Location on the map be where the mics at
Fight back, they brought us here in tight packs and light packs
Chained in the hold, they can try to chain souls
But we broke out
Vantage point, down wind, smoke out
It's hard to even go about business now days
In the US of A we seen as runaway slaves
Yo, I had to make plays
Similar to Willie Mays or Bob Gibson
Slank my pen work, Henrik Ibsen
Remember spinning it was written on my Sony Walkman
Back when, track skipped when the bus hit the pot holes
A must that I rock clothes with Polo crests
I let my afro grow it reach down to my chest


Yo, if you knew what I knew
We would know the same formula
My vision ain′t just filtered through the corneas, it's deeper
Slank, I time travel, reappear in the speakers
With a microphone I'm like the hip-hop Derek Jeter
If you knew what I knew
We would know the same formulas
My vision ain′t just filtered through the corneas, it′s deeper
Slank, I time travel, reappear in the speakers
With a microphone I'm like the hip-hop Derek Jeter

In the booth Slank move like a Cuban in Luanda
The truth gets revealed, I had her squealing like a Honda
He who talk shit, stick shift in your mama
These rappers ain′t spitting sick shit still I'ma
Do what I gotta do, been a dope rhymer
Young dude, but I spit flows like an old timer
If you knew, what a nigga knew
You would know the sciences and math I′m applying
When I trek across paths
In deciduous environments
The rhyme scheme fire piff
Hit me on the wireless, I'll hit you back
Track innovator with data but y′all knew that
Darth Vader couldn't fade me, swang Louisville bats
I had musical combat, came back victorious
The moral of the story is I'm doper than fuck
I was knocking on the door, they ain′t open it up
So I came through the back way smoking a blunt


Yo, if you knew what I knew
We would know the same formula
My vision ain′t just filtered through the corneas, it's deeper
Slank, I time travel, reappear in the speakers
With a microphone I′m like the hip-hop Derek Jeter
If you knew what I knew
We would know the same formulas
My vision ain't just filtered through the corneas, it′s deeper
Slank, I time travel, reappear in the speakers
With a microphone I'm like the hip-hop Derek Jeter

Ayo, real shit, sometimes I forget that I′m the realest
Then I run my track back and it reveal gifts
See me in the field, move smooth like a shortstop
Tools in the back, Shively, it's like a sport shop
I put down the pork chops, last call
I seen the police speed up like a fastball
I'm swinging for the fences
The tree lit up, it′s like Christmas
Niggas brought gifts, bore witness
Lights flickered
In deciduous environments
Put me on a higher list
She said my fit stylish, I blew her back
Track innovator with data but y′all knew that
Fuck the government, and the ten percent
And they benefits
Blood suckers of the poor, they the arch nemesis
Slank world renowned for the best rhyme sentences
Spitting piff powerful like Dodge truck engines is
Woke up full of contradictions, tryna find the synthesis

Yo, if you knew what I knew
We would know the same formula
My vision ain't just filtered through the corneas, it′s deeper
Slank, I time travel, reappear in the speakers
With a microphone I'm like the hip-hop Derek Jeter
If you knew what I knew
We would know the same formulas
My vision ain′t just filtered through the corneas, it's deeper
Slank, I time travel, reappear in the speakers
With a microphone I′m like the hip-hop Derek Jeter

Yo real shit, I'm the realest
Then I run my track back and it reveal gifts
See me in the field, move smooth like a shortstop
Shively, it's like a sport shop
I had musical combat, came back victorious
The moral of the story is, I′m doper than fuck
I was knocking on the door they ain′t open it up
So I came through the back way smoking a
