[Intro: Portishead sample, (Slick Rick)]

"How can I forget you?" (Rick The Ruler)

"How can I forget you?" (That's right... Raekwon)

"How can I forget you?" (Heh heh... The Chef)

"How can I forget you?" (Hahaha)


[Verse 1: Raekwon]

Touch more, tastin' glass of raw; flash yours, Rick

Money we saw, left 'em dead on the door, dick

Rocks look chunky on the index

Straight up, Lee vets in like old Adidas sweats

We the illest vets


[Verse 2: Slick Rick]

Apologies! Even a non-dog holler he's ought'a ("Flee!")

Appreciate your shit-out Clark Wallabee's

Brothers wit' they fist like oak swool

Provokes doom, and you're also 'bout to go broke soon


[Verse 3: Raekwon]

Mad current merchants, we nursed it, bag guerillas

Feed us, like "Guarantee, they gon' kill us"

Fleein', 90 in a Ni' Zoom, G-in' white dudes

Hit the locks first, we made a right, true


[Verse 4: Slick Rick]

Blushin' Russian women, via satellite I watch 'em

I dare a nigga say he wanna battle me, I'll crush him!

Even blind girls rush next to hammer us

Scream out, "Oh, my gosh! Get the camera!"


[Chorus: Raekwon]

Yo, we frozen, lay on – about now, we a day on

Ill niggas yellin', "Throw Rick and Rae on!"

Hydro, hidin' our blow, how did I flow? Did I glow?

Let them niggas know


[Verse 5: Slick Rick, (Raekwon)]

(Yo!) Rap wars commence and the kids cause offense

I don't have to say a word and your bitch' drawers are drenched

Didn't say I was gonna murder the fella

But The Ruler got some shit could stop a herd of gorillas


[Verse 6: Raekwon]

Stressed wit' Hollywood hoes, actin' up, back it up, what?!

This "your" what?! Crawlin' in the cut

We Lee Major – gems on, wit' Timbs, brims on

Drawn to lay you up

Layin' in the Daewoo – what?!


[Verse 7: Slick Rick]

Lex Boulev' – C.O. and bank books full up

Even though it's over when this nigga Rolls Royce pull up

One of the baddest come, noddin' to a Spanish song

Soft orange Woolrich parka and Havana drugs


[Verse 8: Raekwon]

Severe teaspoons, scary money on the moon, lampin' wit' a big goon

Keep shit tight like a kid's room

Big Bird in the driveway, pull it out, Friday

I'm live'r that way, I ride only the fly way

Olive green thinkin', ship sinkin', deep-dish stinkin'

Big fish tank, wrist full of Franklins

This is mock-neck, shark-skin money

'88 summary, the dunn-dummeries, rock gondoliers


[Verse 9: Slick Rick]

Punctures his lung, son says "I don't want this"

Even this so-so beat, I make monstrous

Lady cops stake doo-wop's pad, hood

"Freeze! You're under arrest – you look mad good!"

Hot and don't fret, retard who won't let

The new sheriffs in town — what part you don't get?

Rick and Rae are now restorin' the passion

The fashion, the class — I went to work on yo' ass!


[Chorus: Raekwon]

Yo, we frozen, lay on – about now, we a day on

Ill niggas yellin', "Throw Rick and Rae on!"

Hydro, hidin' our blow, how did I flow? Did I glow?

Let them niggas know

Yo, we frozen, lay on – about now, we a day on

Ill niggas yellin', "Throw Rick and Rae on!"

Hydro, hidin' our blow, how did I flow? Did I glow?

Let them niggas know
