I’m Your Pusher Lyrics

[Intro]
Yo, what's up man, I need to get high, man
I need to get hold of some big time dope, man
You know where I can get a ki?

I know where you can get a LP
LP, man? Have you went crazy, man?
I'm talking about some dope, man
I need to get high right now, man
Why don't you hook me up with a 5-O?
I can hook you up with a 12 inch
12 inch? Man, you done went crazy?
You don't even know what time it is
Out here on the streets and don't know what time it is
Man, you's a fool

Yo, homeboy, you a fool
You don't know what time it is out here, messing up your mind
You know what I'm sayin'?
This is Ice-T talkin' to you, boy
I'ma tell you what time it is


[Verse 1]
Yo, it's time for me to up pump the volume
No problem, the record's revolvin'

Evil's the mixer, I'm the rap trickster
Paparazzis on the bum rush for pictures
Ice, coolin', yo, colder than ever
Punk executioner E, pull the lever
Rotate the wax then cut and axe the tracks
Push up the levels 'til the red lights max
Don't try to size up, you better wise up
To the rap criminals, we're on the rise up
We’re selling dope 'til we succeeded
Dope beats and lyrics, no beepers needed
For this drug deal, I'm the big wheel
The dope I'm sellin', you don't smoke, you feel
Out on the dance floor, on my world tour
I'm sellin' dope in each and every record store

I'm the kingpin when the wax spins
Crack or smack will take you to a sure end
You don't need it, just throw that stuff away
You wanna get high? Let the record play

[Interlude]
Aw man, you ain't never lie, man
This dope is alright, man
I got to get back with you, man
Let me get your number, man

[Chorus]
I'm your mama, I'm your daddy
I'm that nigga in the alley
I'm your brother when you need
A true player to emcee
You know me, I'm your friend
Your main boy, thick and thin
MC Ice-T
I'm your pusher


[Verse 3]
I bring it to boil, Evil E rock it up
You want in? I don't think you got enough
Last suckers crossed, Syndicate shot 'em up
Cops found 'em in the lake bottom up
I don't play when it comes to my dope
I check my lyrics close, like with a microscope
I don't clean 'em up with no Ivory soap

I leave 'em hard and pure, hope that you can cope
'Cause you might O.D. if you overdrive
This record, tape or CD, because the sound I've
Created on this wax is like a chemical
And the knowledge I give makes me invincible
[Interlude]
Aw, Mr. Dopeman, I'm lovin' you, man
You got it goin' on, man
What else you got?
I got some of that Kool Moe Dee
Aw yeah, man, I want some of that, man
Got some Doug E. Fresh
Aw, gimme an ounce of that, man
I want that all night long
Got some Eric B. & Rakim
Aw, that is some real dope right there
Got some of that LL Cool J
Nah, nah, man, I don't want none of that, man
You can keep that, man

Got some Boogie Down Productions, KRS-One
Aw, now you're talkin', man, come on
Public Enemy
Yeah, don't stop, don't stop
Biz Markie
Makin' music with yo' mouth Biz, I love it


[Chorus]
I'm your mama, I'm your daddy
I'm that nigga in the alley
I'm your brother when you need
A true player to emcee
You know me, I'm your friend
Your main boy, thick and thin
MC Ice-T
I'm your pusher


[Verse 4]
The cops just don't know what to do because my dope breaks through
No matter what they do, my stuff gets to you
Kickin' on the Boulevard, my tempo's hyped and hard

I don't ask, the ICE just bogards
Sire Records puts me out, with Warner Brothers clout
My dope hits the streets with no doubt
Evil E adds the cut, then removes it
Is' checks for purity, and then approves it
And then you get it, try it and like it
And if it ain't potent, we remix it and spike it
To bring you the pure dope, not a noose in a rope
'Cause if you're doin' crack, you're on death row
You're just a toy punk to mess with that junk
You want some real dope, come look in my trunk
The dope I'm sellin' is life, a hundred percent legit
So get real, fool, and try some real hit


[Interlude]
Word up, my brother, you got me high as a kite
I feel good tonight
Ice-T, man, you alright

[Chorus]
I'm your mama, I'm your daddy
I'm that nigga in the alley
I'm your brother when you need
A true player to emcee
You know me, I'm your friend
Your main boy, thick and thin
MC Ice-T
I'm your pusher

I'm your pusher
