| [00:08.21] |
I ain't no joke, I use to let the mic smoke |
| [00:10.77] |
Now I slam it when I'm done and make sure it's broke |
| [00:12.76] |
When i'm gone no one gets on cuz I won't let |
| [00:15.90] |
Nobody press up and mess up the seen I set |
| [00:17.23] |
I like to stand in a crowd and watch the people wonder |
| [00:19.97] |
Damn! But think about it then you'll understand |
| [00:22.25] |
I'm just an addict addicted to music |
| [00:24.65] |
Maybe it's a habit, I gotta use it |
| [00:26.80] |
Even if it's jazz or the quiet storm |
| [00:28.98] |
I hook a beat up convert it into hip-hop form |
| [00:31.10] |
Write a rhyme in graffitti in every show you see me in |
| [00:33.58] |
Deep concentration, cuz I'm no comedian |
| [00:36.11] |
Jokers are wild if you wanna be tamed |
| [00:38.52] |
I treat you like a child then you're gonna be named |
| [00:40.57] |
Another enemy, not even a friend of me |
| [00:43.10] |
Cuz you'll get fried in the end when you pretend to be |
| [00:45.43] |
Competin' cuz I just put your mind on pause |
| [00:47.48] |
and I complete when - you compare my rhyme wit yours |
| [00:49.76] |
I wake you up and as I stare in your face you seem stunned |
| [00:52.50] |
Remember me, the one you got your idea from |
| [00:54.12] |
But soon you start to suffer, the tune'll get rougher |
| [00:56.97] |
When you start to stutter that's when you had enuff of |
| [00:59.17] |
Biting, it'll make you choke, you can't provoke |
| [01:01.27] |
You can't cope,you should've broke |
| [01:02.97] |
because I ain't no joke.. |
| [01:21.66] |
I got a question, as serious as cancer |
| [01:24.90] |
Who can keep the average dancer |
| [01:26.94] |
Hyper as a heart attack nobody smiling |
| [01:29.60] |
Cuz you're expressing the rhyme that I'm styling |
| [01:31.40] |
This is what we all sit down to write |
| [01:33.63] |
You can't make it so you take it home, break it and bite |
| [01:35.73] |
Use pieces and bits of all the hip-hop hits |
| [01:38.10] |
Get the style down pat then it's time to switch |
| [01:40.60] |
Put my tape on pause and add some more to yours |
| [01:42.65] |
Then you fake it you're ready for the neighborhood chores |
| [01:44.92] |
The E-M-C-E-E don't even try to be |
| [01:47.87] |
When you come up to speak, don't even lie to me |
| [01:50.00] |
You like to exaggerate, dream and imaginate |
| [01:52.34] |
Then change the rhyme around, that can aggravate me |
| [01:54.71] |
So when you see me come up, freeze |
| [01:56.84] |
Or you'll be one of those 7 MC's |
| [01:59.30] |
They think that I'm a new jack but only if they knew that |
| [02:01.38] |
They who think wrong are they who can't do that |
| [02:03.54] |
Style that I'm doing, they might ruin |
| [02:06.13] |
Patterns and paragraphs based on you and |
| [02:08.57] |
Your offbeat DJ, if anything he play |
| [02:11.60] |
Sound familiar, I'll wait til E say |
| [02:13.13] |
Play 'em, so I'ma have to diss and bro |
| [02:15.20] |
You could get a smack for this |
| [02:17.20] |
I ain't no joke... |
| [02:36.15] |
I hold the microphone like a grudge |
| [02:38.31] |
B'll hold the record so the needle don't budge |
| [02:40.54] |
I hold a conversation cuz when I invent |
| [02:42.48] |
I nominated my DJ to president |
| [02:45.70] |
When I'm see I'll, keep a freestyle, going steadily |
| [02:47.89] |
So pucker up and whistle my melody |
| [02:49.81] |
But whatever you do, don't miss one |
| [02:51.95] |
They'll be another rough rhyme after this one |
| [02:54.34] |
Before you know it, you're following and fiending |
| [02:56.75] |
Waiting for the punchline to get the meaning |
| [02:58.88] |
Like before the middle of my story I'm telling |
| [03:01.36] |
Nobody beats the R so stop yelling |
| [03:03.57] |
Save it, put it in your pocket for later |
| [03:05.75] |
Cuz I'm moving the crowd and B'll wreck the fader |
| [03:08.30] |
No interruptions til the mic is broke |
| [03:10.44] |
When I'm gone, then you can joke |
| [03:12.89] |
Cuz everything is real on a serious tip |
| [03:15.80] |
Keep playing and I varies quick |
| [03:17.14] |
And take you for a walk through hell |
| [03:19.40] |
Freeze your dome then watch your eyeballs swell |
| [03:22.11] |
Guide you out of triple stage darkness |
| [03:24.40] |
When it get dark again then I'ma spark this |
| [03:26.94] |
Microphone cuz the heat is on, you see smoke |
| [03:29.31] |
then I finish when the beat is gone, I'm no joke... |
