Slick Rick - The Ruler's Back Lyrics
Hauk, who goes yonder?It is i, sire, richard of nottinghamWell, speak up man, what is it?News from the east, sire, rick the ruler has returned!Gather round party goers as if your still livinAnd get on down to the old slick rhythmNow this one here is called the ruler my dearIts a mere party booster that will set things clearIts a hundred percent proof from champions of truthAnd if you feel you need spirit Ill bring back your youthRelax your mind, and folks unwindAnd be kind to a rhythm that you hardly findAnd off we go, let the trumpets blowWell hold on, because the driver of the mission is a proThe rulers backNow in these times, at least to meTheres a lot of people out here tryin to sound like ricky dNot tryin to cause trouble cause its really a small thingBut theyre bitin what Im writinGod its great being the kingSome sound allright, but then they act illyTry conquering my crown and thats really very sillyNow Im not the type that gets upsetTry to disrespect folks just to earn respectBut learn this fact, whether white or blackI cant be conquered in my style of rapFor jealousy and envy are dumb ones toolsSo ricky says nothing, he keeps his coolRevenge is not a mission that the rulers onJust forgiveness required for the wrong thats doneSo off we go, let the trumpets blowAnd hold on, because the driver of the mission is a proThe rulers backNow one day when I was chillin at this outside jamI seen folks havin a ball and plus clappin their handsTo beats of records that conquer the streetsLike pee wee herman and clubhouse treatsGirls was chillin, boys rule as usualThe slacks, the golds, the rings, I hope Im not confusin yallBut everyone in the house looks smashinFresh clothes on their butts and nothing out of fashionAnd just when you thought nothing couldnt get betterA news flash concealed in a bright yellow letterA kid ran up to the mike and said alert, hear this,Cleared his (? ) throat and then began to persistHe said hallelujah, kids hear thisThe rulers back and hes here to assistSo off we go, let the trumpets blowAnd hold on because the driver of the mission is a proThe rulers back
