Woke up, turned the drum machine on
Used my instincts to make a dope song
Woke up, turned the drum machine on
Used my instincts to make a dope song
Woke up, turned the drum machine on
Used my instincts to make a dope song

The toughest musician in Hip-Hop history
Has finally mastered the art of the MPC
Not Primo's drums, due to knowledge, due to change
I go by Dwight Farrell as well as other names
The creator has a master plan, I'm finding my part
I know it's got a lot to do with my art
I mix it up like a Cuisinart, when I hit "play", start
Section of new sound, make it all loop around
For the Vision 1.4 and S3000
I'm wide awake at 7 like Matsen (on and on and)
But the MP haunts me nocturnally
So now I'm tappin' out beats 24/7
These drum machines are like cliffnotes
'Cause I'm used to real notes
On ebonies and ivories to make melodies with
With these drum pads come the banks of sixteen
So I flip these with the music theory God educates me with

Woke up, turned the drum machine on
Used my instincts to make a dope song
Woke up, turned the drum machine on
Used my instincts to make a dope song
