P.O.D. – School Of Hard Knocks lyrics

We from the school, the School of Hard Knocks
Who's ready to rock?
(Ready to rock)
Are you ready to rock?
(Ready to rock)
Round'n up suckaz knock 'em, knock 'em out the box

We from the school, the School of Hard Knocks
Who's ready to rock?
(Ready to rock)
Are you ready to rock?
(Ready to rock)
Round'n up suckaz knock 'em, knock 'em out the box

Since back in the days
All up in this
The year 2 G's
Come again

Graduate at 13, the streets made me a scholar
Flood the microphone, one by one, hear 'em holler
The sure shoots, rock box, rhymin' on blasted beats
Mics on my side, they call me, Hip Hop Along Cassidy

Rap'n catastrophe but only time will tell
Could we excel and rock bells like LL
Made me feel I was ill, music euphoria
Went to the doctor, D.O.C. gave me the formula

Hey, young world, the world is yours
Turned my whole wide world into metaphors
You kept me straight when times got hard
So, let me reminisce over you, my God
Old school, bring it back

We from the school, the School of Hard Knocks
Who's ready to rock?
(Ready to rock)
Are you ready to rock?
(Ready to rock)
Round'n up suckaz, knock 'em, knock 'em out the box

We from the school, the School of Hard Knocks
Who's ready to rock?
(Ready to rock)
Are you ready to rock?
(Ready to rock)
Round'n up suckaz, knock 'em, knock 'em out the box

Like back in the days
Reminiscent, all up in this
That's how we do this
Come on, G's, come on

I came through the door, I said it before
We pioneers, redefining hardcore
You want more MC's and DJ's
Dues we pays, 8 out of 7 days

In many ways, I've seen a lot go around
Pound for pound from SD to Boogie Down
We've been around 'bout as round as they come
From all yes y'all's, to dum, ditty, dum, dum

See, this is philosophy on the industry
That there ain't no other brothaz 'bout as bad as we
You see my squad stays on point
Rock this funky joint, can you dig it?
Set me up, here we come

This is how we do
Party people in the place
This is how we do
1, 2, 3, say

We from the school, the School of Hard Knocks
Who's ready to rock?
(Ready to rock)
Are you ready to rock?
(Ready to rock)
Round'n up suckaz, knock 'em, knock 'em out the box

We from the school, the School of Hard Knocks
Who's ready to rock?
(Ready to rock)
Are you ready to rock?
(Ready to rock)
Round'n up suckaz, knock 'em, knock 'em out the box

Who's down?
Dance well to the funky sound
Who's down?
To make some noise and scream out loud

Who's down?
And throw your hands in the air right now
Who's down?
Jump around, jump around
