High & Mighty back in this

"You think you know what I'm meaning" [B. Real]
|
I'm just a '86 witness
|
"You thi-think-think-think ya know"
|
Take it out you suckers, you don't know how I did it
|
"You think you know what I'm meaning"
|
Yo yo, you're now a game and don't think you're gonna win it
|
"You-think-you think you know what I'm meaning"
|
|
Maybe if I popped Cristal
|
Said I had a Lexus, or a triple beam I'd get a deal
|
I'd rather speak upon a Maurice Cheeks steal
|
It's the outta paper, not the caps I peel
|
I used my independent, money to pay the rent
|
Remain at hell bent, and far from heaven sent
|
Where they went? The days when mics got destroyed
|
B's just boy-ed, the soft punks got toyed
|
Unemployed, was a happy-go-lucky MC
|
And now that's all they fuckin be bringing to me
|
Where they went? The summer concerts on concrete
|
Elite could put twelve G's in the seat
|
Now I release the masterpiece of my music
|
It's '99, and no one could use it
|
They rather re-use it, the audience confuse it
|
Take Chuck D's Time Bomb, try to defuse it
|

"I've seen your kind before, you're not original" [Lord Jamar]
|
"Ya-you're not ya-you're not orig-riginal"
|
"I've seen your kind before, you're not original"
|
"The-the-the meaning, ya think you know what I'm meaning" [B. Real]
|
"I've seen your kind before, you're not original"
|
"Ya-you're not ya-you're not original"
|
"I've seen your kind before, you're not original"
|
"Ya think you know what I'm meaning"

[Mr. Eon]
|
It seems that you gotta come cheap to compete
|
That's why when I chose to go deep you go sleep
|
On a verse, you not gonna get at first
|
Like O.J. would never ever get a hearse first
|
When he die, think about the lie over lie
|
>From verse about the hearse of this rap universe
|
Cuz radical elements remain eloquent
|
The reprocussions tear right through the fabric
|
So act quick, kids at the top is lackin
|
They tryin to turn hip hop to just plain rappin
|
Let the poppers pop and the breakers break
|
Cuz there's just so much of this shit that I can take
|
Now I can't stand the rain, this shit's all the same
|
Mr. E excommuincate your whole game
|
Back in '88 baby everything was gleaming
|
"The meaning, you think you know what I'm meaning"
|
|
"I've seen your kind before, you're not original"
|
"You're not-you're not-you're not original"
|
"I've seen your kind before, you're not original"
|
"Ya-ya-think-ya-think you know what I'm meaning"
|
|
[Mr. Eon]
|
Where your skills at, where the ill raps?
|
Where the new tracks, where your heart at?
|
Where the new jacks, gettin contracts?
|
I got a rhyme that I ain't even wrote yet
|
Save the drama classes for the masses
|
Hip hop, glacoma, baby I prescribe the glasses
|
The vision's near-sighted, and narrow-minded
|
The wack shit that you hear, is all hate and fight
|
Take it like harder, fools act retarder
|
In '98, lyrics just disregarded
|
Now how hard it be yo to really concentrate
|
Writin metaphors, wack shit I annihilate
|
Now fools comin through spellin much gibberish
|
While Mighty Mi and I stay acknicilous
|
Raps are bed pan, and I be the nurse
|
Removin shit wit lyrics that I disperse
|
Nail ya coffin, ?so you're? death's epitome
|
Ya fate be taken out is most likely
|
Not likely, we be The High & The Mighty
|
Stompin out crews, the team of the '90's
|
|
"I've seen your kind before, you're not original"
|
"Not original"
|
"I've seen your kind before, you're not original"
|
"The meaning, you think you know what I'm meaning"
|
"I've seen your kind before, you're not original"
|
"Ya not original" "Ya not"
|
"I've seen your kind before, you're not original"
|
"You think you know what I'm meaning"
