I put my root down
On the way back up hearing battle tapes
I kick it root down
So kick it from the root when we break it on down
It's not a put down, I put my foot down
So are we gonna fuck it?
Gonna kick it root down
Are you wanna kick it?
That's a record
I put my root down
I kick it root down
I kick it root down
I put my root down
Gonna kick it root down
It's like Harlem world battles on the Zulu beat show
I'm electric like Dick Hyman
And that's a record, that's a record [Incomprehensible]
Gonna kick it root down
Through the underground, underneath the sky scrapes
Gonna kick it root down
A flow master of disaster with a sound that's gone
Gonna kick it root down
Doing homework on the train, what a fucked up situation
Well I'm not coming out goofy like the fruit of the loom guys
Oh now that's a record
'Cause downtown Brooklyn is where I was born
Ad Rock, don't stop,just get on the mic with the tic and the toc
Jimmy Smith is my man I want to give him a pound
I kick it root down
Gonna kick it root down
I put my root down
Sometimes I feel as though I've been blessed
Grab the mic and the ma bell connect you
Everybody know I'm known for dropping science
Gonna kick it root down
A phone call from Utah and I'm throwing a panic
You do might think that I'm a fanatic
There goes the guy with the funky sound
Songwriters: Mike Diamond, Adam Horovitz, Jimmy Smith, Adam Yauch
So are we gonna kick it?
Are you wanna kick it?
So are we gonna kick it?
And if you want to battle me, you're putting loot down
I know I'm step up to the mic in my goose down
Tears running down my face 'cause I love to do it
So are we gonna kick it?
Gonna kick it root down
I put my root down
Never let you down with the stereo sound
'Cause I'm doing what I want so I never rest
I'm gonna fill you with the fuckin' rim like brim
We're talking root down, I put my root down
It's kool moe D'vs busy bee there's one you should know
If dancin' prays to the Lord then I will feel alright
So are we gonna kick it?
The original nasal kid is doing damage
I guess you'd expect to catch the crew rhymin'
Enough of that just want to give some respect due M.C.A.
But when the snow is falling then I'm gone
"Oh my God that's the funky shit"
Come up represent from the upper west
Gonna kick it root down
Money makin' put me to the test
So are we gonna kick it?
I feel a good to play a little music
Every morning  took the train to high street station
Gonna kick it root down, down
So I'm a pass the mic and cause a panic
Just strutting like the meters with the look-ka py py
And that's a record, that's a record [Incomprehensible]
And that's a record, that's a record [Incomprehensible]
So mike, get on the mic and turn it out
And no one can stop this flow from flowing on
Break it all down
I'm walking down your block and you say that's him
I kick it root down
Gonna kick it root down
I put my root down
I kick it root down
I'm like sweetie pie by the stone alliance
I'll take a little shout out to my dad and mom
[Incomprehensible]
So are you wanna kick it?
For bringing me into this world and so on
And then I make some love, I put my root down
Because I've got the flow where I grab my dick and say
Bob Marley was a prophet for the freedom fight
Break it all down
Gonna kick it root down

The Beastie Boys you know we come to get down
Gonna break it all down
I said it's root down, it's time to scoot down
