You Love to Hear the Stories lyrics

by

Marley Marl


[Scratched by Pete Rock]
"This is the place where stars are born"
"The Bridge, Queensbridge"

[Poet]
Y'all n*ggas love to hear the stories again and again
Of how it all got started way back then
See it was Marley, MC Shan, the Juice Crew
Queensbridge, hip-hop land, those n*ggas blew (up)
Nobody said it started there
But some playa hater tried to end the party there
n*ggas didn't care they burned it, put it in the air
I took it personal readied up for warfare
sh*t, yeah, what?
But time passed by, sh*t died out
But n*ggas got paid off my hood no doubt
Now everybodies rhymin', other hoods start shinin'
That's aight 'cause the Bridge'll keep risin'

[Scratched by Pete Rock]
"You love to hear the stories again and again
Of how it all got started way back when"
"The Bridge, Queensbridge"
"Screwball drops the illest sh*t"

[Poet]
And just when you thought things couldn't get betta
Nas dropped Illmatic and let'cha'll faggots have it
He brought the shine back, made the right contact
Had the whole world sayin' "Hey dun, rewind that" (Rewind that)
n*ggas from every hood felt the new vibe
The word spread quick, the Bridge is still live
My dun went gold, then he went platinum
My n*ggas Mobb Deep had the streets right afta him
OH MY GOD, sh*ts off the hook now
Killing kids, in the Bridge carry rap books now
Another chapter about to dominate
I guess it's just in our nature, Queensbridge gotta set it straight
We on some kamikaze sh*t, moving at a Cormega pace
Infamous Mobb up in this rap race
This is the place where stars are born
Im'a stay reppin' my hood until Im'a dead and gone
[Cuts by Pete Rock]

[Poet]
You still walkin' through life like you was blind
Need you a lucy but you short one dime
Damn, thought about it, ten minutes later
Bumbed a cigarette going up in the elevator

[MC Shan]
Dead dreams, more than sold
You've got to try and receive ya goal
However you do it, however you may
Don't never listen to what nobody say, uhh
But you chose to lead that fate
Now you're sucking on a bone when it should'a been steak (steak)
The whole purpose of the story I told
Was mainly to inspire you to reach your goal
Stop walking through life as if you were blind
You should reach for your goal 'cause I'm reaching for mine
You love to, you love to
