Run DMC - Faces Lyrics
[D.M.C.]
In your face, all the time
All in your face when I'm kickin my rhyme
All these faces in front of me
Face to face with Run-D.M.C...
[Run]
Knuckleheads in my face for a second
But I move the crowd, and I reckon
that a sucker might jump and try to bait
So kill that noise and get out my FACE (punk)
and let a real MC collect dollars
The true crew and few come from Hollis, Queens
and by all means necessary
my vocabulary is very extensive, and expensive
So hard it'll put you in intensive care
Often suckers get lost in the sauce when
faces just start speakin on faces
and leavin traces, other races be mocked
and it sparks a fight, day and night
dark and light - different types of faces
[D.M.C.]
Faces, faces
And everywhere you go you see..
Yeah yeah yeah
Break! As we come back on..
As we come back on..
All in your face, I place this rhyme!
Facin this crew, you're facin your doom
You got punched in the face
as soon as you heard this tune!
I race at a pace with no shoelaces
to racist faces, placin disgraces
Taste the bass of the racial facial
Disgraceful tasteless racist faces
Get out my face, don't bass, don't waste my time
my brother, I'm not color blind
I walk the face of the Earth, face death
face the best and I'll just
rip flip and trip won't shut up or let up
Get out my face so we can go head up
(Damn D!) Yo yo yo they don't understand me
?? when they always try to ban me
Hypin the stereotype of a face
and that's the problem with the human race
Haste makes waste, don't trace to other places
We're all the same but with different faces
..
[Jay]
Yeah D, and everywhere I go I see faces
Faces sweatin you and they sweatin faces
Around around the world, international faces
Yeah, now bust it
Yo, I took a look in the face of a girlie
The way she looks that Jay must say
somethin bout the way my afro is growin
But is it funky? (YEAH!) Well okay
Is she jockin my 'fro or my fade?
Do she want me because of my name?
I like the ladies, sweet and serious
not those hoes, that plays, the game
on every Tom Dick and Harry
Shawn Jerry John Nick Curly Moe and Larry
You thinkin you married? Well you CRAZY
my baby you won't carry
Cause I like a girl that's low-key
That's how it's gotta be to be with me
And I'll take her to all the exotic places
The name of this jam is called FACES
Yeah.. so many faces..
and everywhere I go I see faces
and everywhere you go you see, the faces
International faces, I'm a Afro and I'm outta here..

This song is trash
Jam master jay baby!
when you spot jordan knight😍❤️ !!
run chain beyond litty they whole style was a head of they're time
Right...they were moving with the times for sure
Never, neva, liked this group during their heyday in the '80s
Sorry dude wrong era this is the 90's the era when 808's were traded for acoustic drumbeats
Filmed here in Rio de Janeiro -Brazil, during the Rock In Rio 2 in 1991 . Great "New Jack Swing" sound. Remind me the Michael Jackson's Dangerous album :D
DMC!!!!! Yo D shined on this one. Rip Jam Mater J 🙏🏽
is it me, or at 1:52 D.M.C. look like Deacon from Kings From Queens tv show. Also from Queens, hmmmm!!!
this was the end of RUn DMC - I was so gutted when i heard this, i saw them live in 1988 when i was 12, so don't nobody on here be saying i don't no shit -Musically its a cool track, and i know bands/crews evolve, but I never wanted to hear Run DMC doing this - such a shame
Remember being on line at the record store for thier first album , when I heard it's like that just got me out of this world and sucker mc just was a sigh they was for big thangs
Praise the kings period
Classic run DMC

TOOOPP Faces...
u see run with those nike on!
Very sad.
Confusing shit...Run DMC meets New Kids on the Block....
Not really. It's new jack swing, it's a hybrid of hip hop and R&B. The beat evolved from swingbeat rap music from the late 80s.
I know what the genre is called. Anyway...not my thing. But you go enjoy it. Good day sonikku956.
New Jack Swing nuff said. #NJS4LIFE
The precursor of it with this song
Adidas started frontin' on them about writin' them that big check so they said "Fuck 'em!" "We gon' start wearin' some Nikes on they ass!"
SO YOU LIKE TO RAP WHAT YOU KNOW ABOUT HIP/HOP CHECK IT OUT THERES NOTHING WRONG WITH BEING POSITIVE WHY YOU MAD YOU GOT TO LOVE IT SMILE TODAY DON'T LET PEOPLE TAKE YOUR JOY BROTHERS GET INTO THE MOVING AND GROOVING
The Best Rap Crew EVA !!!
I wouldn’t go that far!
NWA as well
My vocabulary is very extensive and expensive...
Never heard this
Classic! :)
Love Run DMC but why is Run have nike on his feet ):
Trying to get away from the public thinking that Adidas was the only thing they could wear
back in the 90s when they started to change their sound...didnt really like it but its RUN DMC so they can do whatever the fuck they want
Agreed! Couldn't have said it better.
Run wearing Nikes lol
wow! this is a rare vid...early 90's transitioning from the political type rap of the late 80's to the new jack swing of the early 90's
And it’s horrible.
Yeah, Run DMC didn't transition well. This song is terrible.
i have dizzee rascal. well evreyone is better than nuthin'
:D cieszymy się że pamięć nie ginie.
Ai almsot forgot about this one, searched and here is oin youtube.
Run-DMC was trashed in 1990 for this, but they fit the era perfectly. Run, D, Jay, thank you for reinventing yourselves. :)
Mike Anderson It's waay better than the 1988 Tougher Than Leather album. But no better than the 3 first albums
Yeah, love Run DMC but this song is terrible.
hiphop legends
I see one person is completely mental
Awesome track, one of the best from Back From Hell!
Lol, agreed 100%! Little Wayne needs to grow a pair before he gets kicked out of Run's house!
1 lonely person got kicked out of Run's House!
