[Erick Sermon] 
I make a million buck 
Every six months and y'all 
Hating my game saying my name they call 
Me the E wrong things 
Knowing I'm fly without wings 
While some of y'all have to pull strings. 
In this era I maintain the freak upon the beats 
Master baselines of Raphael Saadiq 
Lyrical mastermind a genius so don't snooze 
No missions impossible ask Tom Cruise 
I keep a joint lit when I have to spit 
I rough paragraph, laugh when I'm busting yo' ass, who want it? 
Come and see me, like 112 
And I'll rock that bell with Fox and L 
E-Dub, Mr Excitement, right 
The poltergeist of rap so come to the light. 
Yes, the recipient of this award goes to Moi, 
The best qualified superstar. 

[Chorus: EPMD]
My squad stays on point like 
Den en den den de den, It's the joint 
Yeah my squad stay on point like, 
Den en den den de den, Its the joint.

[Parrish Smith]
Its the joint, stay on point 
Plus I'm feeling it 
Niggas killing shit trying to duplicate the manuscript 
That's impossible, pray like the gospel 
Over coming set backs, and jumping over obstacles 
Like Evil Kenevil, on point like a needle 
EPMDs' like the Beatles, back with another sequel 
To hip hop, check one two and you don't stop 
Rap with mainstream R&B and pop 
Now the worlds shocked 
The E-doubles back with Mic-Doc 
Like it or not we bout to turn it up another notch 
My speeds put it down for my seeds 
Raw breeds, acres with the deeds, its the joint. 

My squad stays on point like 
Den en den den de den, It's the joint 
Yeah my squad stay on point like, 
Den en den den de den, Its the joint.

Chi Town I'm in your area, (Over here) 
EPMD, its a world premier 

[EPMD]
E: My styles digable, so I'm phat like that 
I got a Benz too, and its black like that 
I got millions of chips, and they stack like that 
A five year spread, and now we back like that 
How dare they, niggas sitting in they room with Brandy 
Way pissed off thinking how the can't stand me 
He rhyme Shawn for his Penn, talking 
Not looking, shoocken, a dead man walking 
P: You know me, from ripping shows wit my homie 
The one and only, Ginuwine like Pony 
You want a ride? Call me up when your lonely 
I'm Parish Smith and shit, Great like Tony 
I'm hittin hittin 
Where from? 
From brentwood to San Quentin 
I'ma keep rhyming, still representing 
Ro who? 
For my niggas up north and in the ?Courts? 
And for the emcees taking no shorts, in this blood sport 

My squad stays on point like 
Den en den den de den, It's the joint 
Yeah my squad stay on point like, 
Den en den den de den, Its the joint.

Philly I'm in your area, (Over here) 
EPMD, its a world premier
