Cold Gettin’ Dumb Lyrics

[Intro]
Cold gettin' dumb - yeah!
Aight, here we go once again
Back, for more, with the one, Sir Vicious Just Ice
My man Mantronik providin' the funky sound for your listenin' pleasure
To rock it on to the break of dawn
On and down to the A.M
With my man DMX, the original human beatbox
Yo change the bass
Keep it on like this to the break of dawn
Show you how a real MC cold rocks the mic and gets things right

[Verse 1]
It's like that, never the wack, in actual fact
It's like this dominant black, come right and exact
So nice very precise yes, Just-Ice
Like this never no tricks you see it's Justice
To the best of my knowledge I guess that I'm fresh
And when I manifest I never protest
So you say you never melt, you're supposed to be an adult
Sympathetic emotions I never felt so get help
You know that you are lost
And you know that if you're meltin', that you are soft
Just-Ice, Sir Vicious, is here to rock on
Tell you all about myself, let my knowledge be born
Respect on the mic when it comes to a rhyme
If you think we're much alike you know you're out of your mind
As I reminisce your chance ended
To try to convince me to believe your stupid nonsense
I'm twice as nice, a gripping vice, precise Just Ice
Rockin' parties nine years of my life
It's a new conceptual, highly intellectual
For me, only 'cause it is genetical
'Cause now, 'bout to get loose, got gallons of juice
To pour, and more if you want to choose
Negotiable and sociable is done
But let's build and we'll all have fun so don't run
'Cause if you leave you will be fooling yourself
You better go and seek some better help
It's time to stop bein' stubborn, and so defiant
Just hear my words, acknowledge my science
But if you're crying like the rain, I know it's the pain
Obtain some math, and move your brain
To a new potential, identical, the main principle
The science I speak well everything is just rational
The most pressin', I'm giving you a lesson
I test the rest they gets depressed
They didn't appreciate the agony, of defeat
It's the way that I did it, that made it sweet
'Cause the people all around agree
My rap is intellect with high velocity
I'm speakin' about me, a delicate wish
Sir Vicious so smooth like a rimless swish
Come with me young ladies it's not too hard
Wanna make you my baby and complete the job
Like a psychopathological syndrome
My beneficial words are gonna be known
Theoretical dilemma facts hard to pen
Just Ice Sir Vicious done rocked it again
[Bridge]
(Mantronix cold getting ill)
(Rock the beats)

[Verse 2]
Peace, to all, that, could come
The time is now the deed must be done
'Cause I rock, and also will devastate
Your thoughts then start to manipulate
The bass beats as I start to capture
Every beat in sequence, including the scratch
Turn off that music and go acapella
Match the sound to my voice, then you'll start to treasure
My intelligent, eloquent way of rap
Poetic philosophy, yes down pat
Inevitable rights, to party all night
Double counter second amateur twice
A prototype to endure, my wrath, is much to contain
Alleviate the latter, and crush the remain
Opportunist victim in a state of shock
You caught a bad decision and now you are stopped
By the one that's called, most vicious of them all
'Cause even if I sit, I still stand tall
On the most incredible, elevated pedestal
That's hard to beget, but never forgettable
Rap connoisseur, who only gives more
And I am sure my rhymes never bore anyone
Who listen 'cause I got your attention
Diabolical scheme, now here's my invention
A poem, a rap, a haiku in fact
When my opponent hears this, [?] a one, two, three
Ah, a bunch of rhymes, you're just a beginner
With two thousand left I'm bound to be a winner
It's like that on the comeback in actual fact
Like this, sweet as a kiss, as y'all reminisce
It's like this never the wack in actual fact
Stand back or you might get slapped, Jack
[Outro]
Ah yeah
(All you sucker niggas get off my dick!)
That's the way it's really done when you cold rock the party with an MC like precise Just-Ice
(Peace)
And my man Mantronix on the wheels of steel, peace!

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

A classic production by Kurtis Mantronik, later revamped by Redman for “It’s Like That”. This was the most popular track from the Back To The Old School album, and it’s still the Just Ice track you’re most likely to hear in a club today.

The vocals are very low in the mix, at times completely drowned out by cowbells, samples, or weird vocal effects. This is our best guess at the lyrics. Improvements welcome.
