"it's my thing!" |
|
"and the stadium is packed.. |
|
There's a large crowd out there today.. |
|
Let's hear them play" |
|
"you out there? louder!" |

|
(parrish smith) |
|
Mc's out there, you better stand clear |
|
Epmd is a world premier |
|
From new york straight talk, america's best |
|
Cold wild long island, is where we rest |
|
(erick sermon) |
|
("you out there? louder!") |
|
Style of the rap, makes your hands clap |
|
Take care of myself because the lines are strapped |
|
Day mean business, no time for play |
|
If you bite a line, we'll roll your way |
|
("you out there? louder!") |
|
The more you bite, your body gets hot |
|
Don't get too close, because you might get shot |
|
Gnawin at my rhyme like a poisonous rat |
|
Don't play dumbo, you're smarter than that |
|
(pmd) it's my thing |
|
"it's my thing!" |
|
"you out there? louder!" |
|
"it-it, it, it-it, it-it, it's my thing!" |
|
(parrish smith) |
|
The rhythmatic style, keeps the rhyme flowin |
|
Good friends already bitin, without you knowin |
|
("you out there? louder!") |
|
Can't understand, why your body's gettin weaker |
|
Then you realize, it's the voice from the speaker |
|
The mind become delirious, situation serious |
|
Don't get ill, go and get curious |
|
("it's my thing!") |
|
(erick sermon) |
|
Nuff about that, let's get on to somethin better ("louder!") |
|
And if gets warm, take off the hot sweater |
|
And if you want some water, I'll get you a cup |
|
And if you don't want it, then burn the hell up |
|
("you out there? louder!") |
|
I'm tellin you now boy, you ain't jack |
|
Talkin much junk like mr. t at your back |
|
But he's not, so don't act cute |
|
Cause if you do you in hot pursuits |
|
(pmd) it's my thing |
|
"it's my thing!" |
|
"you out there? louder!" |
|
"it-it, it, it-it, it-it, it's my thing!" |
|
(parrish smith) |
|
As the song goes on you will notice a change |
|
The way I throw down, the way I say my name |
|
("you out there? louder!") |
|
The mic that I'm packin, is flame resistant |
|
So mc be cool, and keep your distance |
|
When I walk into the party girls are screamin at me |
|
I park my mic and my hoes, and then I yell freeze.. |
|
.. music please |
|
"it's my thing!" |
|
(erick sermon) |
|
Ah where was i? oh yes |
|
Say a def rhyme then I plumb the rest |
|
("you out there? louder!") |
|
Everytime I rock a rhyme I can tell that you like it |
|
Emotion is strong, like the mind of a psychic |
|
The mind is weary, floatin like a dove |
|
Sweating and things, like cause you was makin love |
|
Control the crowd, so they can accept it |
|
Total concentration is the perfect method |
|
(pmd) it's my thing |
|
"it's my thing!" |
|
"you out there? louder!" |
|
"it-it, it's my, it-it, it's my thing!" |
|
(parrish smith) |
|
The wack I subtract, the strong I attack |
|
The ones who grab the mic and freeze, I throw it back |
|
("you out there? louder!") |
|
I perfect and eject, make mc's sweat |
|
Take em off on the mic then I tell em step |
|
Not waiting or debating, cause mc's keep hating |
|
Play me too close, like two dogs mating |
|
("it's my thing!") |
|
(erick sermon) |
|
("you out there? ") |
|
Now let's get on with the rest of the lesson |
|
Don't really like it when suckers start messin |
|
Tryin to make a scene, talkin very loud |
|
Talkin much junk to attract a crowd |
|
("you out there? louder!") |
|
You say you wanna battle, your first mistake |
|
You get quiet and stuff, like you was at a wake |
|
In the beginnin, you knew you wasn't winnin |
|
Now you feel ashamed, your head starts bendin |
|
Kinda upset boy -- I understand |
|
You lost again -- I won, God damn |
|
(pmd) it's my thing |
|
"it's my thing!" |
|
"you out there? louder!" |
|
"it-it, it, it-it, it-it, it's my thing!" |
|
(parrish smith) |
|
My funky fresh lyrics, put you in the spirit |
|
I speak a little louder for you suckers can't hear it |
|
("you out there? louder!") |
|
The rhymes I designed, are right on time |
|
And at the crowd on my mic, flash a danger sign |
|
Cause I'm the thriller of manilla, mc cold killer |
|
Drink budweiser, cannot stand miller |
|
Mc's cold clockin til the party's through |
|
Then they tap me on my shoulder and say, "this bud's for you" |
|
("it's my thing!") |
|
(erick sermon) |
|
("you out there? louder!") |
|
To be a real mc, you can't be obedient |
|
To be smooth is the main ingredient |
|
You have to be silky like a milky way |
|
To be able to make it work, you rest and play |
|
("you out there? louder!") |
|
I control the pace of the rate the rhymes blowin |
|
Hydraulically jacked, is the way they're flowin |
|
Slow yes, just like they're awed |
|
The comparison is wave like the motion of water, smooth.. |
|
"it's my thing!" |
|
"you out there? louder!" |
|
"it-it, it, it-it, it-it, it's my thing!" |
|
(parrish smith) |
|
While the record is spinnin, got your fly girlie grinnin |
|
Md is on the mic, you know I'm only beginnin |
|
("you out there? louder!") |
|
Rhymes fresher than fresh, never heard me fess |
|
Scored 110, on my mc test |
|
My rhymes are strong than tyson, hold a mc license |
|
When I grab the mic, mc's get frightened |
|
(erick sermon) |
|
("you out there? louder!") |
|
I'm dangerous, I'm here to crush some bones |
|
Lounge homeboy you in the danger zone ("it's my thing!") |
|
What I mean by lounge, I don't mean bitin, huh |
|
You mess around, and we'll be fightin |
|
It's alright if you bite, but don't recite |
|
Because the rhymes are mine, and that ain't right |
|
("you out there? louder!") |
|
But until just chill to the next episode |
|
Donald j, yo, release the code |
|
(pmd) it's my thing |
|
"it's my thing!" |
|
"it's my thing!" |
|
"you out there? " |
|
"it-it, it, it-it, it-it, it's my thing!" |
|
"it's my thing! it's my thing! it's my thing!" |
|
("you out there? louder!") |
|
"it-it, it, it-it, it-it, it's my thing!" |
|
"la-la-loud-la-loud-la-louder!" |
|
"it's my thing!" |
|
"you out there? louder!" |
|
"it's my thing!" *music fades* |
|
"you out there? " |
|
"ya ya ya-ya ya-ya ya-ya you out there? " |
