Erick Sermon - Stay Real Lyrics
[I.]
It's on breaker 1, 2 mike checkin'
flexin no half steppin
when I release the funky weapon
I make fans fell it even when I sing.
The green eyed bandit coming funky with the tune yes
I'm blowing up like Tom Berringer in Platoon.
I'm playing kinda ruff like Zapp
whapp and E-Double smack to all the crossover raps black
who ain't down with the format
when you should be wearing khakis and not dress slacks
that's wack
you trippin you better wake up and smell the coffee
and then back up off me
and then compare them equal boy you must be buggin
you lucky you don't catch a slug in the chest in
from the Smith and Wessons.
Change the out look
change the cover of the book
you hip hop crook and give back what you took.
It's the Funk coming at cha
so don't let the crossover catch ya.
Boy stay real.
[II.]
It's on again yeah about the fake hip hop trends
for those who can't comprehend just ask your friends
they know the real deal of rap music no frontin
you can't be talking loud and saying nothing
you must be true to the game you understand
and if not I could kill you man
for being false plus extra fake on the tape
talking hardcore when you soft like a piece of cake.
You can't put nothing pass me that horrendous cause
I've been here since strictly business
the era of Eric and Rakim, Biz, Public Enemy, Run-DMC,
Houdini, The Beasties, Stetsa, Fresh Prince and Jazzy Jeff, LL
when he was rockin bells.
Sucker which fake emcee is rearranging the structure band
the motherf--ker. And don't let this happen again
cause rap could be gone the wind.
So stay real.
[III.]
Yes I'm back Black for those who might be confused
and lost and don't wanna pay the cost
of me hardcore style type a human being
on the microphone when I be emceeing.
Some fake the Funk and Main Source know it
how do I know cause MTV shows it.
Clowns that should be beat down on the spot
and catching nothing but speed knots the bumbadots
I insist we veto all fake emcees and wanna be's
that's worst than the AIDS disease.
So wake up Spike Lee Joint
and don't be a knucklehead and get to the point
with the Funk and pump up the volume
make the wild tune to make the party boom
peace to Redman the Rap Funkadelic
the only emcee that's compared to Erick because I'm real.

ERICK SERMON THE FUNKLORD SUPER PRO ORIGINATOR IN FLESH
CRAZY RESPECT FOR THIS CAT HERE
Ooooo the way you move me dam this is hip hop
🔥🔥
This track is dope. I just discovered it
Pierre
And this is actually one of the weaker songs on the album in my opinion.
@Kevin Scott Seriously ?
Pierre
Indeed.
This album was chock-full of filthy guest appearances(it was basically Eric's response to Dr.Dre's The Chronic),including Joe Sinister,Keith Murray,Kam,Ice Cube,Redman,Shades of Lingo and Soup.
Just check out the song Payback Part 2,for example(featuring Joe Sinister).
It's too ill.
@Kevin Scott I'll think about it, thanks dude
I can't hear this song without thinking about Kenny Anderson using it as his theme in NBA Superstars
When I was a kid Eric's beats had what they called
Underground bass.It was what made ur ride obnoxiously vibrate rhythmically WITHOUT being OBNOXIOUS!!!!!
圓放屁圓放屁圓蝙蝠
Eric Sermon is still fresh. I love this artist. Respect from Poland.
Really need 2 bump that bass on this track, actually on all Erick Sermon productions
1 SUPERKOOL finisher. Last WORD belong to him.

Funk-Lord !!!
i remember...
Hittin Switches was on who's the Man.
I was obsessed with that shit, King.
The Carhart Vest w/ the mismatch hat.
I remember trying to do it with the Timbs.
Ah, 1993. See, this is indeed my favorite year for music through and through. That beat started playin' in my head so I just had to come and check on this gem. Haven't heard it in a minute.
Pure talent 👍👌
Ledgen Classic ..........Ledgrenary
Highly slept on
I'm Eric Sermon Body Guard
This sounds like Biggie before Biggie! Wow.
Now that I think about it they should've did a remix & let Red get on it
On fire meeen thats true shiit
Erick Sermon's Stay Real song and music video is a classic. Erick's lyrics are funny LOL. Redman made me laugh looking hardcore LOL. When Erick Sermon was naming music rappers in his 2nd verse. He should've said NWA, Kool G Rap, Ice T, Kurtis Blow and KRS One. Erick hasn't stayed real because his albums have been garbage after Double Or Nothing LOL. Erick Sermon's No Pressure album is a classic. I like the album pictures. I love Erick Sermon. Erick should've did songs with Canibus, Rakim, Nas, KRS One, Big L, Freddie Foxxx, MC Ren(NWA).
GIVE BACK WHAT YOU TOOK !!!!!!! YESSIAH ERIC SERMON
Its on like a Muscle when I flex' in the Gym, l begin , two win, made it equal or much better, does it realy matter,over mind, shadow in the back behind, your ear, cuz U can hear, no fear, don't let them enter to the center of the mental cypher down und up, flying like a bird with the need to flip, cuz tuff times need tuff decission, the mission in place, right in your Face that Ace of Spades, debates, about Vaccine Bill Gates. What will bring us earliert to those Purple Gates. Hate makes more hates.
Opened heaven and didnt let enter, go! at least I fallow my dream, and I'm the great Pretender, sender, steal bender, Her bendin' over to her toes we all love those shows not on tv, for real I got them goen down belive me, not for the cash, only cuz they see me
This came out before you could hear the distinct difference between east coast and west coast music musically, you could only call it by the flow of the MCs.
Eric sermon used to sound drunk on those early EPMD albums 😄😄😄
Beautiful to see, congrats!!!
Timeless.
High five if you're born in or around 1979 and witness of a great genre who's dead now
These real hip hop artists will take out these clapy hip hop artists of today for sure and always love the 1990s Hip hop music for life
When that beat dropped it was over with
Hardcore!
When I use to skip class for DJ show Mr. T where you at?? Bring back memories $$
Still Go Hard 2019
Red nor Edub never sold out....Correct?
My 2 faves.....
1) Fave Rapper
2) Fave Producer.....Beatmaker.*
Am I trippin’ or is this a perfect beat match to the Humpty Dance? Hmm, useful...
Great producer.
Still Flavor
Erik Sermon is still Relevant
Was in the Penal with 2 of your cousins back on '91
Hope they well
Haaa!! E Double's old rim shop on Peachtree Road in the ATL.

This that real hip hop kid!!
2:08 Is that Redman? :)
Oh yeah
LA TIGRE yup
Redman's dap was Top Notch.
hahaha this is the best flow ever !!! Props :)
NBA SUPERSTARS 3, Kenny Anderson, that’s how I learned of this lol
who stil 2019?
He was right, rap is gone with the wind. The garbage they are putting out now!
The most underrated album EVER!!!
is his line where he says ' The green eyed bandit' come funky with a tune' refers to his robbery of PMD?
Bringin back the "Boom-Bap"!! Greatest era of rap.
0:36 Video shot in Atlanta
Eric should write a book ...and off and on is my favorite song 🔥
Word....A N.Y. Times Best Seller.📖
"71 baby! Love my error!! East coat baby!!
Correction era!! Lol
2:06....... Enter The Redman...😠😡😤
90s Real #HipHop
Brett Ratner who directed the video got cursed out by Lyor Cohen , because he felt that his hardcore image was destroyed by having him singing in the shower 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
25 years later and this shit STILL knocks! #EDouble
Classic
Is this the generic version?
Greatest rapper simple from Hackney in England
S.c 🆒💯
you better wake up and smell the coffee... Stay real
00:48 👀
This song sounds like it should have been on def jam fight for ny
DEF SQUAD 4 LIFE
Redman's screw face in this video gives me joke! Big up to the whole of Def Squad!!!
Real iz Real.... & this iz - az Real az it Gets!!!!
💪🔥👌🔥🔥🔱
The real deal !
Green eyed bandit 🔥🔥
....so don’t let this happen again... cuz rap can be gone with the wind.... so stay real.
No truer words could be said for hip hop in 2018... 😞
classic real hip hop
Z3mc's Triple Threat sample.
Man a pair of Punch Pro 12's with fosgate amp back in the day had the whole block shakin with this joint! That Redman gansta grill got me rollin bruh!! Classic 💣
We hated when E n Paris broke up
When rap was rap
Just too raw. Heard this when it came out. Still too raw.
this guy sounds like lickety split
STAYIN REAL!!!!!!!
That's my Beat
Perfect track to wake up!
Just woke up and played this.
Prophetic...accurately describing or predicting what will happen in the future."his warnings proved prophetic." Ol'Hip-hop...Smh...It's a shame what happened to her! 😢
That second verse was for all these lame ass mumble rappers!
Who else saw Shadz Of Lingo? Just me? Okay.
This shit is life.
Much respect to the Green Eyed Bandit. The Redman cameo was/is everything
first video after he went solo. remember Yo MTV Raps dayz...
Freshmen year in HS...classics.
"Peace to Redman, the rap funkadelic/the only emcee that compare to Erick, because I'm real....."
AWESOME SONG BY ERICK SERMON !!!
This song is the reason why I no desire to become a sellout
