Taking It To The Top

DJ Jazzy Jeff And The Fresh Prince

Rock The House

Taking It To The Top

Now I'm the Fresh Prince, and if you got good sense

You'll keep your distance, because my sole intent

Is to rock and shock the spot and give my all, which is a lot

And no, I'm not about to stop because I'm taking it to the top

A whole lot of people rap, but what good is that

If the rap that they're rapping is way off track?

I don't mean to attack you, but I'm cutting no slack

To those people that I hear saying meaningless raps

In actuality, I mean in reality

The words that you use are a mere formality

Vocabulary is not what it's about

The point that you're trying to get across is what counts

Cause when a lot of rappers rap, they try to use big words

But that's the most absurd thing I've ever heard of

They think that that's impressive, but when will they learn their lesson

That it's not the words that count, it's the message

They get a lot of big words out of some magazine

And nine times out of ten they don't even know what they mean

They stand up on the stage, huffing and puffin

Rappin for nearly an hour, but they're not sayin nothin

Really but a lot of jibberish

And I know that they all wish

They had access to fresh rhymes like this

I came to rock and shock and give my all, which is a lot

And no, I'm not about to stop because I'm takin it to the top

Fresh rhymes and a razzamatazz

Smooth power and grace and mucho pizzazz

Good looks and charm and personality

You punch it in your calculator, and it adds up to me

I know the same goes for the rest of my crew

My D.J Jazzy Jeff and Ready Rock C too

The ultimate combination of strength and prestige

My crew holds the key to fun and everything you need


To party all night, yes, it's you we will excite

The time is right, so don't fight it Suckers, please don't bite it

We came to rock and shock and give our all, which is a lot

And no, we're not about to stop because we're takin it to the top

I really hate to brag about him

But when people doubt him I have to stand up and tell the whole world all about him

'United we stand, divided we fall'

Is the moto of our crew and it is honored by all of us,

We pledge allegiance to the work we rehearse

And it enables us always to come out first

We came to rock and shock and give our all, which is a lot

Yo, Jeff, man, why don't you take it to the top?

We succeed every time we attempt

To rock the house, you've got to dance cause no one is exempt

From the rules set forth by us, of course you know

Stay out our way or behold the brute force of Me Jeff and Ready Rock C,

We're a trio, oh, you didn't know?

That means That there's three of us, one for all and all for one

And we're taking it to the top before we get done

I'm inclined to rhyme, anytime you'll find

It ain't a rapper with a mind as impressive as mine I insist on a rise and I despise a decline

On the day I descend, that's the day I resign I'm creating my trends and innovatin my rap

Why is that? I don't know, I guess I got it like that!

My personality extends beyond the realm of mediocre

My advice for life is, if you want somethin, go for it

Cause there's nothin that's beyond your grasp

Just set your mind to it, work hard, and you can have

Anything that you want, the sky is the limit

Stop lunchin around, get up and go get it

Cause I came a long way from the past till today

Now I'm never slowin down, ah-ah, no way!

I came to rock and shock and give my all, which is a lot

And no, I'm not about to stop because I'm taking it to the top
