Lyrics:
Nevertheless am I dressed for the occasion
It’s number 32 now here’s the situation
If the beat moves your feet then don’t change the station
Pack your bags cause we’re leaving on a permanent vacation
Well, I’m a disaster
A microphone master
Put on your tape and rock your ghetto blaster
It’s not about the money, cars, hotels, or resorts
About sweating all the bitches in the biker shorts
I’m hot chocolate and you see me running late
Cause I’m always making time to make your girlie feel great
And I’m Bizzy D from way down town
I’m known to rock a mic like a king was a crown
When I’m on top I’m gonna borrow that bootie
Hustling deals like Mickey Macootey
When I wake up I like a pound of bacon
Start off the day with my arteries shaking
(Chorus)
Rock! it's what we're all about
It's what we live for
C'mon shout it out
Ya see me in 3D I’m come in outta direct
With a dialect most men in science can’t dissect
Dormant sense of worry, and then a sense of loss
And I fiend to blow off steam to get my cream
Sum 41 get wow I get frantic
And every time we spit it the world panics
I think I lost my mind
When I’m aiming for the coup
Sum 41, just ain’t about the loop
Ring a ling ling ding dong tic toc
S*** it’s all about rap, and we be all about rock
