[Verse 1]

Well everyone’s tryna figure out where I came from

I don’t you think you understand

I’m a groovy abstract element

I’m not the supernatural or the man

I seem to pose as a threat to you

'Cause you’re tryna come after me, terminate me too

I’ve been here since the beginning of time

Rhythm and beat, meter and rhyme

[Chorus]

The groove is what the groove was

It never changed and it never does

It’s a talent that’s given

Not everyone is so beat-driven

[Verse 2]

My heart beats fast and I’m breathin’ hard

'Cause it catches you off guard

Yeah it messes with you

Which is why you’re afraid of what it’s gonna do

'Cause it’s an addiction I can’t contain

You can’t get it from heroin or cocaine

Yeah it’s more irresistible than everything they want

It’s the groove’s little game

[Chorus 2]

Can’t stop me, but drop me, go ahead and headbob to me

Can’t hurt me, touch me, 'cause I’m beat-driven
