Rookie And The Vets Lyrics – Bob Peace

Rookie And The Vets Lyrics by Bob Peace

This is me, what you see is what you get
This is the rookie giving props to the vets, oh
This is me, what you see is what you get
This is the rookie giving props to the vets

People say I sound like Jason Mraz or G. Love
Dave Matthews with a little bit of thug
Pac and BIG inject into the flow
Recollect Bad Boy records and Death Row

Common, Kanye or Talib Kweli
Plus I got Mos Def’s lyrical ability
Billy Joel, Springsteen or Mick Jagger and I
Walk and I talk with a Jimmy Page swagger, said

This is me, what you see is what you get
This is the rookie giving props to the vets
This is me, what you see is what you get
This is the rookie giving props to the vets

Props to the females, Aretha, Joni Mitchell
I cry like Ani so get me a tissue
The rhythm of Blakey, let the groove shake me
Afterwards have Nirvana “Rape Me.”

Leonard Bernstein, Steven Bernstein, got the
Fire of Hendrix and the Hulk’s when he turns green!
Sinatra I got ya, Tosh the rasta
Come at ya like Frank Zappa the monster, said…

This is me, what you see is what you get
This is the rookie giving props to the vets
This is me, what you see is what you get
This is the rookie giving props to the vets

It’s the coming of age
Learning musical ways
I wanna take in more and more
I’m coming up, I’m coming up!

Kind of blue like Davis or the Roots’ latest
Of all time, like Cool J I’m the greatest
Mad respect to Trey, helped pave the way, I shoulda
Put him in my ill song “One Day.”

Can’t forget Jerry, Elvis or Chuck Berry
I wonder if Franti rocks a Blackberry?
The Band, the bard and the great Bob Marley
That’s a lot of legends in a sentence, I ain’t sorry!

This is me, what you see is what you get
This is the rookie giving props to the vets
This is me, what you see is what you get
This is the rookie giving props to the vets

I had to overload it, let the government decode it
Dead Prez inspired the flow, I just wrote it
Verbal AK spray with flower at the end
I honor John Lennon through the power of the pen

Jay-Z Jigga, I chill in Muddy Waters and rivers
And the Hammond of Jimmy gimme shivers
I hear Janis, and I hear Pink Floyd
What about the Beastie Boys?!? Said

This is me, what you see is what you get
This is the rookie giving props to the vets
This is me, what you see is what you get
This is the rookie giving props to the vets

DJ Logic scratchin’ it up,
Danger Mouse in the lab, mashing it up
Michael Jackson bought the Beatles now
he’s cashing it up

Murder Mase went holy now he’s massing it up, uh
Job of musician get close to God
Electrify the crowd like a lightning rod
Supremes and Temptations can bring elation

Hold up I got Stevie Wonder on the station!
This is me, what you see is what you get
This is the rookie giving props to the vets
This is me, what you see is what you get

This is the rookie giving props to the vets
This is me, what you see is what you get
This is the rookie giving props to the vets
This is me, what you see is what you get

This is the rookie giving props to the vets
This is me, what you see is what you get
This is the rookie giving props to the vets
This is me, what you see is what you get

This is the rookie giving props to the vets
