25 years ago a friend of mine |
|
asked me to say some mc rhymes |
|
so i said the rhyme i'm about to say |
|
the rhyme was def and then it went this way |
|
took a test to become an mc |
|
dj run said "d, come and rhyme with me" |
|
so i climbed inside of larry's cadillac |
|
the caddy drove off and we never came back |
|
the car we drove, it was the car called rap |
|
that's the way it is and it's like that |
|
i gotta give props to all hip hop |
|
and i'm gonna keep rhymin 'till the day i drop |
|
chorus: |
|
just as i suspected, you can't touch me |
|
d to the a double r y ello |
|
you wanna know why i'm still raisin hell |
|
and you stand corrected by dmc |
|
i'm fine like wine |
|
i get better with time |
|
and all the young girls sing "do do do do do" |
|
sucker mc's make history |
|
and everybody in the streets wanna be an mc |
|
i thank hip hop for adopting me |
|
and helpin me get where i got to be |
|
some people seem to think that to be an mc |
|
you need a closet full of clothes and iced out jewelry, |
|
pocket full of dollars, cars in every flavor, |
|
(somethin somethin) behavior |
|
sorry to say that's how it was before |
|
but people aren't goin for that no more |
|
you gotta give a performance 'cause by now you should know |
|
that you're givin a party not a fashion show |
|
oh oh oh-oh |
|
just as i suspected, you can't touch me |
|
d to the a double r y ello |
|
you wanna know why i'm still raisin hell |
|
and you stand corrected by dmc |
|
yeah |
|
everybody wanna rap, but that's not all |
|
but a real mc, you do not call |
|
cause you can't write a rhyme at a quarter to two |
|
you need a real mc before the jam is through |
|
now fake @$$ rappers got (something) |
|
you need to take a record from childhood back(?) |
|
just as i suspected, you can't touch me |
|
d to the a double r y ello |
|
you wanna know why i'm still raisin hell |
|
and you stand corrected by dmc |
