LYRICS

Joy and pain

Like sunshine and rain

Joy and pain

Like sunshine and rain

Well I’m the new kid, I’m just comin’ up

A lot of rappers think that I can’t tear it up

Well I’m ‘a show ’em and ignore ’em

And when they think I ain’t lookin’ I floor ’em

I mean take ’em out I keep groovin’

A slick bass line keep the beat movin’

They can’t take it they just fake it

They wonder how the Rob Base make it

I get I’ll, you know the deal

Cause this is how the Rob Base feels

Joy and pain

Like sunshine and rain

Joy and pain

Like sunshine and rain

I keep smokin’, hot like fire

You had the turn, now retire

Don’t talk back, I’m not a new jack

Cause I’m fresher than you, an’ you’re whacked

I keep tryin’, I’m not lyin’

Up to number 1 is where I’m flyin’

I won’t slow down cause I’m the new kid

With the devastatin’ sound that hits

In the house where I used to practice

No one knew the Rob exists, but now

I’m gettin’ greedy, don’t lead me

The wrong way cause is just might, might, might

Bring me down, I’ll have to fight to get back up

Move away cause I just won’t slack up

Joy and pain

Like sunshine and rain

Joy and pain

Like sunshine and rain

Now, I go to shows to watch other MCs rock

And if they’re good, I don’t knock

The way they perform cause I like to see a good show

After that, go play C-low, y’know

Cause I’m a leader, no I’m not a follower

And MCs like you I swallow ’em

So don’t look and try to judge me

Because you think that I’m another MC, well

I’m the new kind, I just moved around

But that don’t mean I can’t rip up the town

Me an’ my boys, we make noise

I hate MCs that think they’re with toys

I’m hittin’ harder than any other MC

Who try to come up and go against me

Joy and pain

Like sunshine and rain

Joy and pain

Like sunshine and rain

Not from the old school or from the new

Applaud the boom, do what you want to

Talk to me then try to put me down

We used to be cool now we don’t hang around

Used to be friends but now we’re foes

Ask me why, man, no one knows

Maybe jealousy between you and me

Could be the fame, could be the money

I’m goin’ for mine and I don’t really care

Cause the spotlight Rob Base don’t share

I’m the headliner of this show

And you’re just a kid and you need to grow, because

Joy and pain

Like sunshine and rain

Joy and pain

Like sunshine and rain
