The Formula Songtext
von The D.O.C.
The Formula Songtext
High energy flowin′ with the wisdom
Sense of a rich man, knowledge and the rhythm
This is what I'm usin′ to come up with a style, so I'll
Interact, altogether better with the crowd
Nervous for a second and the record starts spinnin'
And, I fall into the state of mind of what I′ve just created
Pump it like the Dr., D and to the R-E
Suckers ready to leap up on the tip when we made it
Creative, so I′ll never be regarded as a regular
More than just a little bit better than my competitor
You should never underestimate the passion
I hold for the stage, whether I'm coolin′ or thrashin'
Clockin′ the concoction created by me
When read, you read, E equals the D-O to the C
Knowledge and the talent that my mother had born to her
Equals an artist that wont' be worn, what is that Dre?
It′s the formula
It's like a message, that only I could understand
But those who want to comprehend, will again
Be in the midst of the brother, unlike another
In any way, 'cause Dre don′t play, say what the other say
Originality is a must, whenever I bust
A funky composition, it′s crush, and I trust
That you, know it when you hear a funky record with potential
Me gettin' hype, ′cause Dre rockin' the instrumental
Nothing like what you′ve heard, before, and more
Never less, see I don't fess, I mean I′m like fresh
If not the freshest, when I'm expressin' my thoughts on
Vinyl, you can′t help but listen up and get caught on
Hooked, because I cook, when I pick up a pen
And begin, in the end, it′s dope, that's ′cause I want to win
Knowledge and the talent that my mother had born to her
Equals the D.O.C., what is it Dre? Yo man
That's the formula
Keepin′ it dope as long as I can like imagine
Makin' each record that I do better than the last one
Take a little time, choose the topic
And drop it, release it, the science of makin′ dope beats
With Rhythmic American Poetry
Shipped it to stations, now many people know of me
I'm the D and to the O, and the O and to the C
And the C and to the period, suckers are fearin' this
When heard, the dope style, calculated by the great
Wait and take just a second to get caught up in my record
New, but not a kid to be worn
If somethin′s gettin′ torn up, then I'm doin′ the tearin', not bein′ torn
Shapin' up to be one of the top vocalists
Lyricists, and when you hear of this, you shouldn′t choke on this
Knowledge and the talent, makes it valid
For me to get it patent, Dre tell 'em what I'm rappin′
The formula
In effect and I′m smooth, that's why I′m on the incline
Suckers frontin' for nothin′ 'cause I′mma get mine
It's in the cards, and I think I might have read this
So dont' lie, and try to front like someone said this
Most who know thoughts served by the D.O.C. see
That it′s a mission impossible, tryin′ to rock me
For an arena who'd ask me to perform for her
G-O, and easily I flow, and ya know
Usin′ the formula
Sense of a rich man, knowledge and the rhythm
This is what I'm usin′ to come up with a style, so I'll
Interact, altogether better with the crowd
Nervous for a second and the record starts spinnin'
And, I fall into the state of mind of what I′ve just created
Pump it like the Dr., D and to the R-E
Suckers ready to leap up on the tip when we made it
