Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

(haha)

I never knew that a kid like me

 Could take his mic around the world and flash the big S.D.

 And rock the masses, from Madrid to Calabassas

Tijuana, Mexico, bootleg demos in Tokyo

 They know me though, 'cause I be puttin' in work

 Commit my life to rebirth, well respected, 'cause that's my word

 I'm sure you heard (heard), about a new sound going around

 She might have left my hood, but she was born in my town

You didn't know, thought we was new on the scene

 Well, it's alright! It's alright!

I know you know, I see you smiling at me

 Well, it's alright! It's alright!

Boom! Here comes the Boom!

 Ready or not, here comes the boys from the South

Boom! Here comes the Boom!

 Ready or not, How you like me now?

same pattern for next verse/ pre-chorus and chorus

I said

We rep. the South, so what you talking about

I'm not running off my mouth, I know this without a doubt

'Cause if you know these streets, then these streets know you

When it's time to handle business, then you know what to do (what to do)

Me and my crew, we stay true, old skool or new

Many were called, but the chosen are few (were a few)

We rise to the top, what you want? Just in case you forgot

Rush the stage, grab my mic, show me what you got

You didn't know, thought we was new on the scene

Well, it's alright! It's alright!

I know you know, I see you smiling at me

Well, it's alright! It's alright!

Boom! Here comes the Boom!

Ready or not, here comes the boys from the South

Boom! Here comes the Boom!

Ready or not, How you like me now?

I said

Boom! Here comes the Boom!

Ready or not, here comes the boys from the South

Boom! Here comes the Boom!

Ready or not, How you like me now?

Is that all you got?

I'll take your best shot.

 Well, it's alright! It's alright!

I'll take your best shot.
