|
Blow blow blow! The microphone fiend. |
|
The microphone fiend. the microphone fiend. |
|
I was a fiend - the neighborhood called it a pipe dream |
|
My early teens, meltin microphones like ice cream |
|
My life scheme, I was starvin to make it |
|
Wanna know how I pulled it off? COMPLICATED |
|
See I grabbed the mic until the game sound sure |
|
Frontin on the skintone, he said the kid ain't raw |
|
COOL - see I don't get upset |
|
I \"Move the Crowd\" without breakin a sweat, and I jet |
|
(and I jet) back to the lab, to put the thoughts on pad |
|
To steam a twenty bag and let the track drag |
|
Punchlines accumulate; the engineers cue DATs |
|
I hit the vocal booths, and it's a wrap (and it's a wrap) |
|
Flee the scene in a big black truck, lookin mean |
|
Caress the wheel with a cool scene lean, KNOW WHAT I MEAN? |
|
(Know what I mean) Natural, do it off the top of the head |
|
Got a famous mug, ladies wanna hop in the bed |
|
Name spread quick like nasty rumors, MC's get brain tumors |
|
I'm Anthony Sr., they Jackie Jr.'s |
|
It's a great world and Violator is my team |
|
Staten supreme, I'm the \"Microphone Fiend\" |
|
{*Eric B. and Rakim original scratched in as the hook* |
|
The invincible, microphone fiend Pellegrino |
|
I make the stage glow, rhymes are like death blows |
|
Strikin rappers pressure points, one at a time |
|
I'm stealin your light; technically you runnin your shine |
|
(you runnin your shine) Words connect like a shot to the chin |
|
Remain cool as a breeze MC's are \"Gone With the Wind\" and I'm in |
|
E, F-F-E-C-T |
|
The rap Frank Sinatra representin correctly (representin correctly) |
|
Back to the problem - you see I live for the mic |
|
Fiend daily plus I'm bingin at night |
|
Dawg by any means necessary this is what has to be done |
|
Make way, cause here I come |
|
You see a part of me you never seen |
|
When I'm fiendin for the microphone, I'm the \"Microphone Fiend\" |
|
On the come up; slide the clips in to throw the guns up |
|
Move dirty like a dumptruck |
|
Chain swing like a numchuk, flow tighter than some lugnuts |
|
Put my work in to max in the cut |
|
Keep the great world spinnin and Violator is my team |
|
Staten supreme, I'm the \"Microphone Fiend\" |
|

|
It's a must that I'll bust any mic you hand to me |
|
I kick a freestyle the people lose sanity |
|
The envious wanna stick him and push his wig back |
|
Negative - I carry a full pack (a full pack) |
|
Now I don't wanna have to let off, and take your head off |
|
or boxcut some of your flesh off - STEP OFF (step off) |
|
Ladies and gentlemen - what you're about to see |
|
A tank(?) kid finesse the rap game properly |
|
Any MC or rhymer, nobody gets more liver |
|
It's my +Destiny, Child+ I'm a \"Survivor\" |
|
Spit fire hotter than lava; battle me |
|
that's like playin Russian Roulette, with six in the revolver |
|
Pretty boy but JoJo get ugly when he cramped in |
|
Regardless of the fact the women love him with a passion (passion) |
|
It's a great world and Violator is my team |
|
Staten supreme, I'm the \"Microphone Fiend\" |
