Hold your hat son don’t look back run / Hide the kids I’m low down like high eyelids / Fly with mic skills that might kill more cats in one breath than a Chinese chef / Mic check one two / Nowhere to run you shouldn’t have stalled after you heard "yes y’all" / Test all m.c.s like S.A.T.s / Best say "please" and twist one like Barry Mcgee / Scary to see why y’all brothers starin’ at me / Darin’ to be the only thing that defines me / Pete Miser bring it to the masses / And stay out of sight like Stevie Wonder’s sunglasses
Chorus:
Give me just one rhyme and just one beat / And give me just one chance to rock these New York streets / Feel the heat / Peep this, son allow me to speak/‘Cause, brother New York City is the place to be
If it’s the place to be I will m.c. / The master of the microphone so player leave it to me / The type of kid to burn a rapper to the third degree / And even maitre ds don’t think of servin’ me / Call an emergency if y’all ain’t heard of me / Caught your girl lookin’ over at me nervously / And if I ever made a mill it’s cause I earned the fee / So check it out I cut the record up like surgery like this…
It’s dope flows on tap / I’ll make one hand clap / I make the party get live when I start to rap / I drop verses like suspension on your homeboy’s Lac / I'll make C. Delores Tucker bounce to hip hop tracks / I transmit like fax and I back down to none / Slap down the sun at dusk before I bust / It’s a million and one m.c.s out to crush / I’ll turn their asses to ashes their assets to dust / Dangerous made a fuss now I’m making a name / Made it plain from the start player who got game / Felt the pain of being broke but never felt no shame / 'Cause looking 'round the world I see I really can't complain
Chorus
