[00:18.23] | I was a fiend before I became a teen |
[00:20.89] | I melted microphones instead of cones of ice cream |
[00:23.29] | Music orientated so when hiphop was originated |
[00:26.11] | Fitted like pieces of puzzles, complicated |
[00:28.53] | ‘Cuz I grabbed the mic and try to say, “Yes, y’all” |
[00:30.84] | They tried to take it, and say that I’m too small |
[00:34.01] | Cool, ‘cuz I don’t get upset |
[00:35.92] | I kick a hole in the speaker, pull the plug, then I jet |
[00:38.87] | Back to the lab without a mic to grab |
[00:41.48] | So then I add all the rhymes I had |
[00:43.91] | One after the other one, then I make another one |
[00:46.72] | To dis the opposite then ask if the brother’s done |
[00:49.23] | I get a craving like I fiend for nicotine |
[00:51.43] | But I don’t need a cigarette, know what I mean? |
[00:53.89] | I’m ragin’, rippin’ up the stage and |
[00:56.01] | Don’t it sound amazin’, ’cause every rhyme is made and |
[00:59.22] | Thought of, ‘cuz it’s sort of, an addiction |
[01:02.03] | magnatized by the mixin’ Vocals, vocabulary, your verses, you’re stuck in |
[01:06.65] | The mic is a Drano, volcanoes erupting |
[01:09.38] | Rhymes overflowing, gradually growingAnnotate |
[01:11.95] | Everythin’ is written in code, so it can coincide,My thoughts to guide, |
[01:17.83] | 48 tracks to slide |
[01:19.55] | The invincible, microphone fiend Rakim |
[01:22.15] | Spread the word, ‘cuz I’m in EFFECTA smooth operator operatin’ correctly |
[01:29.54] | But back to the problem, I gotta habit |
[01:32.40] | You can’t stop it, silly rabbit |
[01:34.79] | The prescription is a hypertone that’s thorough when I fiend for a microphone like herion |
[01:40.01] | Soon as the bass kicks, I need a fix |
[01:42.36] | Gimme a stage and a mic and a mix |
[01:44.66] | And I’ll put you in a mood or is it a state of |
[01:47.17] | Unawareness? Beware, it’s the re-animator |
[01:49.69] | A menace to a microphone, a lethal weapon |
[01:52.04] | An assasinator, if the people ain’t steppin’ |
[01:54.70] | You see a part of me that you never seen |
[01:57.25] | When I’m fiendin’ for a microphone, I’m the microphone fiend |
[02:00.62] | After 12, I’m worse that a Gremlin |
[02:02.87] | Feed me Hiphop and I start tremblin’ |
[02:04.98] | The thrill of suspense is intense, your horrified |
[02:07.68] | But this ain’t the cinemas of “Tales From the Darkside” |
[02:10.18] | By any means neccesary, this is what has to be done |
[02:12.79] | Make way ‘cuz here I come |
[02:15.30] | my DJ cuts material, |
[02:19.42] | grand imperial |
[02:21.07] | It’s a must that I bust any mic you’re hand to me |
[02:23.27] | It’s inherited, it’s runs in the family |
[02:25.58] | I wrote the rhyme that broke the bull’s back |
[02:27.93] | If that don’t slow ’em up, I carry a full pack |
[02:30.58] | Now, I don’t want to have to let off, you should of kept off |
[02:33.08] | You didn’t keep the stage warm, step off |
[02:36.38] | Ladies and Gentleman, you’re about to see a pasttime hobby about to be |
[02:40.69] | Take it to the maximum, I can’t relax see |
[02:43.25] | I’m hype as a hyperchrondriac ‘cuz the rap be one hell of a antidote |
[02:47.36] | Something you can’t smoke more than dope |
[02:48.96] | You’re tryin’ to move away but you can’t |
[02:50.26] | you’re broke more than cracked up |
[02:51.78] | you should have backed up |
[02:53.33] | For those who act up need to be more than smacked up |
[02:55.99] | Any entertainer, I got a torture chamber |
[02:58.50] | One on one and I’m the remainder |
[03:01.31] | So close your eyes and hold your breath |
[03:03.87] | And I’m a hit’cha wit the blow of death |
[03:05.92] | Before you go, you’ll remember you seen |
[03:08.63] | The fiend of a microphone, I’m the microphone fiend |
