 Ain't Sayin' Nothing New lyrics
 
 [Black Thought - amidst ad libbing voices]
 What the fuck, what what what?
 Nuttin new, nuttin new..
 What?  Nuttin new.. check
 Nuttin new, nuttin new, y'all not sayin nuttin new
 I represent the legendary Fifth Dynasty crew
 Nuttin new, nuttin new, y'all not sayin nuttin new
 Nuttin new, nuttin new, y'all not sayin, check shit out
 It's nuttin new, nuttin new, y'all not sayin nuttin new
 Nuttin new, nuttin new...
 
 Ghetto related with this hit the whole world awaited
 Y'all Dorito-head cats that yak and stagnated
 Black Thought, The Doug E. Most war vete-ran
 Crown ruler, soul controller of this lyrical land
 Spliff wizard kid, who is it?
 Fifth Dinosaur Ghetto, beat detonator
 Apex my level, NEXT, my complex pattern of speech is like sex
 I mastered the art of makin you snap the necks
 And Chase Manhattan endorse my mic checks
 Upset, poet threat
 Just collectin my debt, yo I'm overpaid in dues
 blood tears and sweat, when you fuckin with The Roots
 that's as good as it get, Ultramagnet
 We pull you in a Drag-net then brainwash your click
 and extort your assets, then roadie all your homies
 on some old school shit, Roots crew represent
 
 [Dice Raw]
 Life's a gamble, step up and place your bets
 I drift through space, then make my escape on through the 'net
 With CD's, cassettes, no C.O.D.'s or checks
 Straight from the old school, aiyyo Raw's in full effect
 I'm like, Lex Luthor with rifles filled with kryptonite
 When you grip the mic it's like -- c'mon kids, let's say goodnight!
 You don't like me?!  But don't even know why should you hate me
 You scared to face these so I still remain safely
 confidin, North Phil' where I'm residin
 Never let an outside nigga slide in
 This ain't home plate, I dunk on you once inside the paint
 Flow like this you cain't, take me you out, you ain't!
 
 [Black Thought]
 Nuttin new, nuttin new, y'all not sayin nuttin new
 Nuttin new, nuttin new, y'all not sayin nuttin new
 Nuttin new, nuttin new, tell me what you could do
 Yo we drop the funk, and do the shit
 
 Yo, head lost, slip in this land, ?big framboix?
 Spittin it for like whoever demand the answer
 What's the cure for this hip-hop cancer?  Equivalent
 to this avalanche of black snow, rap flow
 to get my people thinkin mo', we at the brink of war
 What does it all mean?  What's it all for?
 With knowledge of yourself, then you're through the first door
 My people hungry and thirst for more next music explore
 It's heavenly to your ebony daughter next door
 So what you think The Roots get the world respect for?
 The splendid authentic hip-hop that's raw core
 Severe, world premier, a superior sophomore
 No doubt, wherever you dwell, that's where the bomb fell
 Explodin from the imperial en-sem-ble, for real
 From the ven-ue to the avenue
 We truly only got respect for a few, y'all ain't sayin nuttin new
 
 [Black Thought]
 Nuttin new, nuttin new, y'all not sayin nuttin new
 Represent the legendary Fifth Dynasty crew
 Roots crew comin through, tell me what you could do
 Yo you lookin for me?  Nah we lookin for you
 Nuttin new, nuttin new, y'all not sayin nuttin new
 Represent the legendary.. with nuttin to do
 For you.. yo, lyrical one two
 Blow up y'all, it's nuttin new, nuttin new
 
 [Dice Raw]
 Look at y'all you just a army ant, I'm a gi-ant, arm fist
 King of my city, runnin this shit, just like a ty-rant
 Y'all clowns know what I meant, that's if we at war
 Then my henchmen, will be at your back door, uhh
 WAITIN, wise at debatin; trippin over Legos
 Runnin up the steps and lookin for a weapon
 But you come out wavin a white flag; that's why
 I just backslap that ass like Shaq did Ostertag
 Either take me or be taken, you think I'm goin down?
 PSYCH, the jury, they're still deliberatin
 I got half of they kids, tied up in a basement
 Nah I'm just playin yo but that's how I'm playin doe
 Dig what I'm sayin yo?  D-I-C-E
 Shove a mic in your mouth, like Ted DiBiase
 When you come sloppy, fuck is y'all tryin to do?
 Y'all into, some wack shit, and ain't sayin nuttin new
 
 [Black Thought]
 Nuttin new, nuttin new, y'all not sayin nuttin new
 Represent the legendary Fifth Dynasty crew
 Roots crew comin through, tell me what you could do
 One two, one two, yo.. we lookin for you
 One two, nuttin new, y'all not sayin nuttin new
 Represent, Fifty Dynasty crew
 Check it out, what?  Well one-two one-two, one-two
 Knahmsayin yo?  It's nuttin new
 Nuttin new, nuttin new, y'all not sayin nuttin new
 Represent the legendary.. Fifth Dynasty crew
 Roots crew, tell me what you could do
 You lookin for me.. we're lookin for.. one-two, one-two
 Ha hah HAH!  Y'all ain't sayin nuttin new
 Wha-wha-one-two, one-two
 Represent the legendary Fifth.. knahmsayin?
 Blowin your vent, yo, content yo, it's like that
