Quiet On The Set Lyrics - Straight Outta Compton: 20th Anniversary Edition - Nwa

[Listen to this] 

[Eazy E:] Yo Ren ! 

[MC Ren:] Whassup ? 

[Eazy E: Take] [one] [MC Ren: Yo] [Hit it] 

[MC Ren:] 

Ruthless, plenty of that and much more 

So at the party, Ren is controllin the floor 

that you step and do your danceroutine 

It ain't a dream my man, you're in a gangsta scene 

with a villain doin damage on a 24 track 

With confusion to finish my conclusion 

Arhytomatic rhymes from a radio cat 

You can't take what I got coz I'll be takin it right back 

[Ruthless gangsta] Cold killin 

You wanna know what it's means ? [definition...villain] 

With the stupid dope rhyme 

So once you hear one line you can tell it's mine 

With a baseball cap that's black that I'm wearin 

and a look that keeps you all starin 

and wondering why I'm invincible 

But when you hear my rhyme, it's convincible 

I don't take no shorts while I'm constructin the ground 

that makes y'all move around to my hell of a sound 

Girls drool on me like a dyin 

[Dr.Dre: Yo Ren, tell'em what they do when you start rhymin] 

I go to the party. I hip a hop the spot 

I dunno what it is, but the girls get hot 

aspirin like they're on fire and 

their so-called boyfriends with'em are retirin 

And for this reason I'm a walkin threath 

So when I'm on stage I want...[Ssssht] 

[Eazy E: Quiet on tha set] 

[Light, camera, action] 

[Eazy E: N.W.A. take] [two] 

[MC Ren:] 

Now to get started with my musical profession 

A gangsta or villain in mine is in session 

The way that I'm referrin to this makes ya move ya butt 

but don't stand in a daze, yeah you should know what's up 

Anyway I keep the clappin along 

coz nothing bad could go wrong because this song is so strong 

[?? huh ?? I'm ???] who could ask for anything more 

when N.W.A. is cold rockin the floor 

like stupid, actin like a retard 

waitin for a bumrush, gettin to the good part 

It tips me so with temptation 

writin my lyrics with this hyped information 

Just look at the center of the stage where the spotlight shines 

[Eazy E: Boy you should have known by now] It's mine ! 

Unpredictable, keepin you extremely enjoyed 

It's irresistable, meanin that you can't avoid 

And while I'm on stage, look forward to sweat 

but after I rip it up I want...[Ssssht] 

[Eazy E: Quiet on tha set] 

[Light, camera, action] 

[Eazy E: N.W.A. take] [three] 

[MC Ren:] 

I can be loud as hell, think I will ? [Never] 

[Ssssht] [Eazy E: Quiet on tha set] Yeah I like that better 

[?? huh ?? As what I can do ??] I think I earn respect 

And if I didn't from you, that's what I expect 

coz if it ain't ruff it ain't me 

So who really cares how you want me to be 

See, I'm just me standin at the top of the pile 

and doin soft known tunes it ain't my style 

And this concludes our program 

of how N.W.A. makes a ruthless jam 

Now first we take an average drum 

Give it to Dre, and the boy gets dumb 

It's no secret, that I sit alone at night 

Pick up a pad and pen and begin to write 

all kinda lyrics that's promised to play 

to make everybody say: 

[They can be cold and ruthless no question about that, 

but sometimes it's more complicated...] 

[Eazy E: Yo Dre] [You know what I want you to do ?] 

[Public Enemy: Bring that beat back, bring that beat back] 

Now MC Ren is here workin like super glue 

No matter what I do, I'm always thinkin o' you 

Coz I'm the pusher, supplyin the fix 

And this jam's so dope, it don't need a remix 

But I'm makin obstacles of enemy traps 

to catch any MC's with the weak-ass raps 

Crucifyin their [?? huh ??] like just for usin my name 

The definition is pain, but that's the thing o' the game 

If they try to retreat, I catch'em one at a time 

coz they're comittin a crime, and still promotin a rhyme 

So, you're in the back of me just listen and learn 

because you'll all get a chance or maybe a turn 

Now my sideman wants to give a preview 

so at my next concert I wanna see you 

there not sittin in a chair 

standin on yo feet, with yo hand in the air 

Now I'm about to get out but I'll be back 

But next time expect the more funkier track 

deep down for your enjoyment to hear more percussion 

with lyrics that's smooth to start some discussion 

The beat that I'm [?? hype ??] and you know that's bad 

Now continue to dance coz I'm thru with tha set
