NO ME PROPONGO PREDICAR (I’m Not Trying to Preach)
Written by Jeremy R. Lindner (6/23/98-6/28/98) with respect to Sublime
R.I.P. Bradley Nowell
Free Loop Dub (Sublime)
Raggae - raggae is the Sublime stlyee
To the one Bradley I say rest in peace
We miss your presence, we miss your words
On stage I will rock the Sublime shirt
Nuff respect due to the Sublime crew
Try to mess with my team – watchu wanna do?
Wanna match wits with the Double Deuce Don
Test me and I’ll send you home cryin’ to your mom
My ego is big, but watch as it is eclipsed by my skillz
Now we’re loved, but you know we’ll keep it realz
I drive my point home like Roberto Carlos
And eat Ravioli purely by the carload
I’m in spar mode – so hit the road
Unless you want to wrestle with the King of the Jungle
I beat my chest like Tarzan and...Let’s get ready to rumble!!!
Rumble in the Bronx like Jackie-Jackie Chan
I do my own stunts – watch me cuz I can-can
I jump and stick – and the soccer ball I flick
Overhead into the goal with the bicycle kick
Pray that I don’t break my neck – what the heck?
I’m droppin’ bombs so hit the deck-deck!!!
Hap Dog talks to me cuz there’s noone around
Am I just trippin’ out – do I look like a clown?
I look in the mirror and I look okay
But I need a shave – oh Lord, save me on this day
It’s summertime and it’s just me and the dog
I’m chillin’ in the bachelor pad cuz I got no job
I’m bored out of my skull – short attention span
But you can believe I have one more master plan
There’s gonna be a party at 1608 Nina
I got the music so I know I’ll be seein’ ya
Wicka-wicka-wacka-knock-knocka
Try to drive on me and I’ll block ya
Cuz I don’t mess – all about business
I hear your bullshit and ask "what is this?"
My mental is "whatever happens happens"
I’m bout it and I’ll always keep strappin’
No, not the MAC 10 or the HK
Packin’ cannons is not the Gambino way
We’re lovers not fighters – but don’t tolerate biters
We often pull all nighters – it’s righteous
We’re listenin’ to
40 oz to FreedomIt’s like Bradley said, sometimes you just need one
Tell me are you a Badfish too
Cuz if you are, whatchu wanna do?
What I Got
is love babyDon’t Push
cuz it might be the Wrong WayI took this trip to
Garden GroveAnd for another visit I sit and
HopeTake your chones, y les mandan a mi
You can be my
Ruca and I’ll be All You NeedMucho gusto me llamo Jeremy
How much more love for you could there be?
I wanna know, chicka am I the only one? Tell me
And she said "You’re not the only one, but you’re the best Jeremy"
But I know my day will come
I know someday I’ll be the one
I heard that paybacks a motherfuckin’ bitch
But I won’t stress and I won’t switch
Cuz I keep pilin’ up the ritches
And callin’ out all the bastiches
Why do some girls have to hate on me?
I can’t love ‘em with jealousy
My ex-girlfriend couldn’t handle it
I tried to be nice, but shit!!!
She said the whole world hated me
Couldn’t help but laugh (hee hee)
I knew right then she was nuts
But not on mine – no ifs, ands, or buts
In the world I’m movin’ on up
So give me the trophy...gimme the cup!!!
