[VERSE 1]
Stop with the bickering Time for some listening Let's keep it rollin' Like them tires by Michelin On some new shenanigans I'm back in the lab again Bout to get more green than a heineken They panicking, pondering, wondering Why I'm traffickin' Why you meddlin' So cold, I'm dope flow peddlin' Yeah he's a veteran In the art of lyrical fencing He's a better man If you flow sick, I got the medicine Rhyme overlord over board When I jettison Check for him Lyrical weight champion I got the title Kinda like Obama An African but soon to be American Idol So old school like I'm vinyl Taking you back like Doggystyle All night long like Lionel MVP of the Finals Dwayne Wade, MJ, Dr. J back in the day I spit so vividly The illest delivery Took a C-Section to deliver me Now I'm a rhyme demon Only Jesus can deliver me Kinda like Braille cause I know all you are feelin' me
[CHORUS]
[VERSE 2] Ain't about a ring bling or things Ain't about cars and clothes Gettin' low to touch your toes I could give a fuck about how many niggas you shot But when you drop a 16 it Better be mean and hot Better rep your block Be creative Be innovative Hungry and ready to rock the spot Immaculate spoken by M.Dot You can ask Mims This is why, This is why I'm hot So real keep your eyes peeled Sharpen your skill Remember that words can kill At the same time The same rhyme can get you a deal And If a penny for my thoughts still applies Give me a mil for thinkin' this fly This goes out to the true MCs That flow for the people not the industry For those in the streets That clap only if you ride a beat If you write a beat Rep for the true and the [funk] This goes out to the true MCs Not the one-hit wonders But the true MCs Not computer thugs on MySpace But lyrical heavyweights with legitimate fan base
