Song Lyrics


Doin'
by John Reuben

Album: Sees Everything in Hindsight


Yeh people been like yo Reuben, "Where ya been?
Where ya been the last couple of years?"
I'm like, "Hey man I ain't gone no where
I've just been marinatin' n sarinating n hurkulatin in the lab"
So they're like, "Hey yo man you know... where's hip hop going?"
An' I'm like "Iunno but I'm here to take the game back
The game is officially mine. It's officially mine"
Hold on. Now everybody sing along

Reuben, what is he dipidy doin'?
(C'mon ladies sing it)
Reuben, what is he dipidy doin'?

This ego was quick to say
That he was better than me better be correct
Before you step and try to sever my integrity please
You MCs need to quit it
I mean do you really think that you're the only ones who get it
And what is it we don't get huh?
Maybe that empty book bag that you sport as a gimmick
To the timberland boots that have never been scuffed
All the while you're still hollering rugged and rough
I call your bluff you're just like the rest of them
The only difference
Is you follow a less popular trend, friend
Tell me how are you going to dog the mainstream
Then turn around in the underground and do the exact same thing
That you're dissing
You get what I'm putting down
I say a gimmick can be found above as well as underground
And since what's real can't be defined by culture or man
I'm curious as to what makes you think that you can

Sing along!
Reuben, what is he dipidy doin'?
Reuben, what is he dipidy doin'?
(n' all the fellas sing)
Reuben, what is he dipidy doin'?
(n' all the lady's sing)
Reuben, what is he dipidy doin'?

Ideas start occurring and words start stirring
Never would I suggest this to be the best
It's just, I like putting words on mics
It's something I like to do something I find nice
Don't' need to dominate or inflate my confidence
Hot no problem giving M.C's complements
But some get mad at me
Like they want to battle me
Upset because I made their hip hop happy
Actually I think you tough guys are corny
And my LP comes with a foolproof warranty
If you buy it and don't like it feel free not to listen
I'm not sure about a refund but you're welcome to diss it
'Cause I don't will not and won't ask you to
React to the beat if you're not feeling it
But perhaps, maybe you are, in that case it goes
One for the treble, two for the base
Arrogance mixed with ignorance will and can
Bring forth a man that don't really understand
But claims he does
And you know what, that's not good

(n' all the fellas say)
Reuben, what is he dipidy doin'?
(hey hey ladies)
Reuben, what is he dipidy doin'?
(n' all the fellas sing)
Reuben, what is he dipidy doin'?
(now hey lady's sing)
Reuben, what is he dipidy doin'?

Ya'll got to be kidding
Man, some of ya'll treat art like it was some sort of religion
Following the rules one two and on through
To the point you don't create art, art created you
Ya'll got to be kidding
Some of ya'll treat hip hop like it was some sort of religion
Following the rules one two and on through
To the point you don't create hip hop, hip hop created you

Reuben, what is he dipidy doin'?
(he cant win the realm)
Reuben, what is he dipidy doin'?
(a..a realm..n when u come to the realm, its gonna be like that.
