Funk Freakers
Funk Revelation: Unleashing the Power of Cypress Hill's Groove
Lyrics
Let me introduce my self
Introduction of the speaker.
I'm the one who rules the set
Asserting authority over the environment or group.
So don't you forget
Warning not to forget the speaker's influence.
Bad for ya health but ya still be tryin' ta push buttons
Cautioning about engaging in harmful activities despite health risks.
But you ain't nothin', no frontin'
Dismissing someone as insignificant or insincere.
I bring the level up a little louder
Increasing the energy level, particularly in social settings.
In the clubs, an' the jeeps an' the after hours
Referencing various social scenes where the speaker's influence is felt.
Fools on the street want to feel the funk
People in the streets seeking the energetic and funky vibe.
Looking for the 'skunk' that's what'cha want
Expressing the desire for a particular type of marijuana ('skunk').
Ya better, sit back and let the track flow
Encouraging the audience to relax and enjoy the music.
Like smoke in ya lungs from puffin' on the Indo
Drawing a parallel between the music's impact and smoking marijuana.
Rhythms upside ya brain, can ya hang, can maintain
Questioning the audience's ability to handle the intense rhythms.
Can ya feel the funk flowin' in ya veins
Asking if the audience can feel the funky energy.
Get ya fix and ya bag of tricks
Providing a 'fix' of the funky music.
In the mix I got the stix and stones a few bricks
Having the necessary tools and skills to handle challenges.
I'm gonna hit 'em high
Committing to delivering a high-energy performance.
He's gonna hit 'em low
Collaborative effort to create an enjoyable experience.
Open up ya mind so that you can feel the flow
Encouraging an open mind to fully appreciate the music.
On, an' on till there all gone
Continuing the energetic performance until exhaustion.
Fools be runnin' but they won't last long
Acknowledging the transience of those who can't keep up.
I'm the freaka
Reiterating the speaker's identity as a 'freaka' (freak).
People always want to get what you got, no matter what
Observing others' desire for what the speaker possesses.
Can't take care of themselves in the big hunt
Critiquing people's inability to take care of themselves.
In the quest for the crown
Pursuit of status symbols like a crown, jewels, and wealth.
An' the jewels, and the cheese
Expressing frustration at materialistic pursuits.
Motherfucker please
Dismissing others' aspirations sarcastically.
Enemies want to plot against me with envy in they hearts
Acknowledging enemies' envy and the speaker's readiness to confront them.
But, I rip their sorry ass apart
Confidently asserting victory over adversaries.
In a minute, I can take ya to the limit
Claiming the ability to push things to the limit quickly.
Temperature risen, nasal highzen
Describing an intense emotional state.
Comin' back in with the lows, for the fows
Returning with a focus on low frequencies, causing disruption.
Fuckin' up egos, an' anybody, oppose
Confronting and challenging anyone who opposes the speaker.
The number one skunk freaka, the Cypress Hill clica
Emphasizing the speaker's association with marijuana and the Cypress Hill group.
Blowin' a hole in the speaker
Creating a powerful impact on the audience.
You don't want to dis the Perro, the Real One, or the Werro
Warning against disrespecting the speaker or the group.
Slangin' rythems through the ghetto
Distributing rhythms in urban areas.
Ya best keep ya ass in cheak
Advising others to be cautious and respectful.
Come on little mothafuckas betta show respect
Demanding respect from others.
An what's next, the big brown takin' ya down
Anticipating a powerful impact or takedown.
How ya feel (how ya feel punk)
Posing a question about how someone feels when unable to keep up with the speaker.
When your sorry ass can't hang with the Hill
Highlighting the difficulty of matching up to the speaker's standards.
I'm the freaka
Reiteration of the speaker's identity as a 'freaka' (freak).
