[00:00.333] (Featuring Kelly German)
[00:00.884] Something about the things that we do
[00:04.171] To make it funky for you
[00:09.429] And as you listen to the rhyme
[00:12.605] You'll see that it just gets better with time
[00:19.699] Rappers stepped to me
[00:20.829] But they didn't get none
[00:22.452] I'm the Kane so you know the outcome
[00:24.446] The microphone crooner
[00:25.532] Should have set the tone sooner
[00:26.992] Hip hop to me is like boxing to Roy Jones Junior
[00:29.873] The genuine, search and you'll find
[00:32.372] That on the microphone I can handle mine
[00:34.337] Here's a view to a kill as I flipped the skill
[00:36.816] When it's time to rock the mic like Al Skratch, I get ill
[00:39.427] I come equipped to fight and if I flip tonight
[00:41.743] Effects on emcees are similar to kryptonite
[00:44.762] The water flows that be hard to distinguish
[00:46.953] It's best to relinquish
[00:48.091] You don't want the God to bring this
[00:49.774] I'm marvelous at the art of this
[00:51.521] Even if you got assist
[00:52.795] Stepping to me is a lot of risk
[00:54.997] I release skills that's abundant
[00:56.780] To explode and drop on you like Flight 800, what
[00:59.956] Keep it moving, world renown
[01:04.507] Showing and proving, that we can hold it down
[01:09.900] Keep it moving, world renown
[01:14.578] Showing and proving, that we can hold it down
[01:19.872] Here's a percentage of that old vintage
[01:22.098] Macaroni flow but it's more than an image
[01:24.852] Don't let the smooth taste fool ya
[01:26.439] Let me school ya, on what it is
[01:28.256] Straight up, square biz
[01:29.549] Swift maneuvering to crush the crew you bring
[01:31.892] Last thing them want tell me is
[01:33.299] Kane go do your thing
[01:34.333] Who the king? Asiatic non-equivalent to any
[01:37.082] Plus I play the game a more harder way than Penny
[01:39.728] The plan that I mobilize
[01:41.099] For dough to rise is no surprise
[01:42.770] That it comes from what I vocalize
[01:44.770] I'm the best you can get
[01:46.118] As I hit you with the stroke of death
[01:47.934] And I ain't even broke a sweat
[01:49.419] But this is where I draw the line
[01:51.067] You're sure to find
[01:52.004] Lyrics I be dropping is too much for the mortal mind
[01:54.845] What's being caused
[01:55.716] Is many emcees I'm seeing lost
[01:57.653] The hip hop laws should be reinforced
[01:59.738] You made a record this year, oh you're hot?
[02:02.000] Something fishy about your style
[02:03.613] Who flow you got?
[02:04.564] You thought that you could hold me down?
[02:06.119] No, you're not, now back up off me
[02:07.770] Here I come to blow the spot
[02:09.877] Keep it moving, world renown
[02:14.545] Showing and proving, that we can hold it down
[02:19.834] Keep it moving, world renown
[02:24.338] Showing and proving, that we can hold it down
[02:29.620] Alright, here I come to get some
[02:31.750] But instead, you don't want the love to spread
[02:34.138] I heard that jealousy and envy is a dumb one's tool
[02:36.848] So Daddy says nothing, he keeps his cool
[02:39.377] I been through your tribulations and conflicts
[02:42.085] Anything possible to keep me out the mix
[02:44.501] But ease back, boy you better freeze that
[02:47.096] Where my rivalries lack
[02:48.227] I'm still nice with these Black
[02:49.835] I rap with the safety cap
[02:51.214] So that you don't get it twisted
[02:52.938] And be another statistic
[02:54.430] How many more to try is sure to die
[02:56.438] Slaughter I, all that playa-hating
[02:57.953] Only makes me fortify
[02:59.773] To get the papers to me is a necessity
[03:01.993] And I don't want a piece of the pie
[03:03.497] I want the recipe
[03:04.671] I can't lose with what I use
[03:06.775] I'm the reason why the lady sings the blues
[03:08.786] Don't get it confused
[03:09.937] Keep it moving, world renown
[03:14.392] Showing and proving, that we can hold it down
[03:19.728] Keep it moving, world renown
[03:24.379] Showing and proving, that we can hold it down
[03:29.199] Hold it down, baby, hold it down
[03:31.667] Hold it down, baby, hold it down
[03:34.174] Hold it down, baby, hold it down
[03:36.649] Uh, uh, uh, uh
