Lyrics

[00:32.88] Some of the busiest rhymes ever made by man
[00:34.90] Are goin' into this mic written by this hand
[00:36.91] Are comin' out of this mouth made by this tongue
[00:38.94] I'll tell you now my name my name is Young
[00:40.69] But so you think that it's your destiny
[00:41.99] To get the best of me but I suggest to be
[00:43.64] Quiet bro' don't even try it from the east and west of me
[00:45.67] Takin' it and never breakin' it or even shakin' it
[00:47.22] Groovin' it and always movin' it cuz I'm not fakin' it
[00:49.59] Pullin' out rhymes like books off the shelf
[00:51.39] Born in England raised in Hollis taught to go for myself
[00:53.62] This is stone cold rhymin' no frills no fluffs
[00:55.45] And it's no accident that these rhymes sound tough
[00:57.57] I'm goin' off baby there's no turnin' back
[00:59.53] I'm on your TV on your album cassette and 8-track
[01:01.66] And when the show is finally finished I'll be takin' my bow
[01:03.85] My name is Young and yo I got know-how you know what I'm sayin'
[01:06.17]
[01:09.61] I got know-how
[01:10.63]
[01:15.28] Party people
[01:15.72]
[01:17.56] I got know how
[01:19.05]
[01:20.40] I kick it just like this
[01:21.42]
[01:22.09] I got juice like the president I'm makin' rappers hesitant
[01:24.37] Invite me to your house and I'll be chillin' like a resident
[01:26.53] Yes cuz I'm that type of man
[01:28.46] Cuz I make myself at home no matter where I am
[01:30.53] I got it rollin' like thunder makin' y'all wonder
[01:32.59] Why I'm on top with all the other rappers under
[01:34.64] I make no errors mistakes or blunders
[01:36.79] It's like a wedding let no man put asunder
[01:38.79] My name is Young MC I like to rock mic well
[01:40.74] Cuz when I get up on the mic I just release my spell
[01:42.80] It's no hocus-pocus I'll just get you into focus
[01:44.98] And swarm all over you just like a horde of locusts
[01:47.11] Smooth operator female persuader
[01:49.11] Spot a fly girl and in a week I'm gonna date her
[01:51.46] I got the kind of style for the here and the now
[01:53.36] And I can do it cuz I got know-how you know what I'm sayin'
[01:55.40]

[02:11.36] Bust it
[02:11.98]
[02:28.20] MC's I'll ruin cuz I know what I'm doin'
[02:30.31] I'll treat 'em like doublemint gum and start chewin'
[02:32.32] I spit 'em out when the flavour's gone
[02:34.12] And I repeat the chewin' practice 'til the break of dawn
[02:36.23] Cuz I'm tough like a bone sly like Stallone
[02:38.34] Rockin' and clockin' on the microphone
[02:40.49] Smooth like a mirror in hearts I strike terror
[02:42.51] Rhymes like runs and hits with no errors
[02:44.65] Cold like a blizzard on the mic I am the wizard
[02:46.73] With the funky fresh rhymes comin' out of my gizzard
[02:48.64] Never sneezin' never coughin' I rock the mic often
[02:51.01] Hard as a rock and no sign I'll soften
[02:52.79] Makin' sure I get respect on my mind rhymes connect
[02:54.59] I start to build like a builder from a architect
[02:56.68] Movin' all around above and under the ground
[02:58.72] You see my face and then you hear my sound
[03:00.91] Comin' atcha with the mic in hand
[03:02.92] I'm gonna take command just the way I planned
[03:04.93] Cuz I'm a one-man band and you are my fan
[03:06.98] Don't you understand I'm like Superman
[03:09.06] Yeah the Man of Steel don't you know the deal
