Ride That Bass

STUDIO

[VERSE 1 — rapid-fire] Step in the rave and I'm straight to the front Bassline kicks and the whole place jumps Drums come quick and the low end thumps No time waste when the riddim gets spun Back with the bounce and I'm back with the pressure Quick on the flow, every bar gets fresher Kick-snare snap, getting darker and heavier Bassline rude and the rhythm gets messier Move with the break when it chops and rolls Sub down low, feel that in your bones Whole room locked when the frequency blows Nobody stops when the energy grows One-two step with a twist and a shuffle Drum gets cracked and the bass gets trouble Straight underground, no shine, no subtle When that drops— Whole rave buckle. [HOOK] RIDE THAT BASS RIDE THAT BEAT RIDE THAT RHYTHM DON'T MISS A BEAT RIDE THAT BASS WHEN IT SWITCH ONE MORE TIME— LIKE THIS. [HOOK] RIDE THAT BASS RIDE THAT BEAT RIDE THAT RHYTHM DON'T MISS A BEAT RIDE THAT BASS WHEN IT SWITCH ONE MORE TIME— LIKE THIS. [VERSE 2 — FASTER] Straight back in and I'm setting the pace Breakbeat running, no time getting waste Bass gets warped when it bends out of shape Then comes back with a whole new face Growl in the middle, sub underneath Drums stay rolling while I shell sixteen Quick little pattern then switch that clean Back with a bassline nasty and mean Dip then twist then roll then bounce Bassline tearing the roof right out Front gets lively, back gets loud Whole damn rave getting lost in the sound No slow down when the drums get frantic Bassline moving erratic, dramatic Switch that rhythm, elastic, manic Drop comes in— ABSOLUTE PANIC. [VERSE 3 — DOUBLE-TIME] I'm on a one-two, quick with the flow Kick with the snare and I'm ready to go Bassline high then the bassline low Switch that pattern and reload the show Roll that break, let the whole thing breathe Then bring that dirty low frequency Quick on the tongue with the energy UK rave, that's pedigree In with the kick and out with the snare Bass gets twisted up in the air Everybody knows when the drop gets near Hands go high when they hear— OI! [BUILD — rapid] Run with it Roll with it Bassline switch and I'm done with it Back on the beat and I'm cutting it One more drop— PUT SOME SUB IN IT. [DROP CALL] RUN THAT! [FINAL VERSE — relentless] Back with a bang and the room gets shelled Bassline warped like nothing else Drums keep firing, rhythm gets held Then one little switch and it all goes hell Breakbeat business, underground sound Bassline bends when it comes back round Feet don't stop when the sub gets loud Whole place jumping from front to crowd Quick with the bars, no gaps, no pause Ride that break till I'm losing my voice Bass gets nasty, drums get raw Give me that drop that they're waiting for One for the heads at the front going mad Two for the crew at the back getting gassed Three-two-one when the bass comes back— RUN THAT SHIT. [FINAL HOOK] RIDE THAT BASS RIDE THAT BEAT RIDE THAT RHYTHM DON'T MISS A BEAT RIDE THAT BASS LET IT SWITCH WHOLE RAVE KNOWS— LIKE THIS.
