Verse 1
|
|
I am woman, hear me roar
|
When I grab the mic it's never a bore
|
When I'm on stage, sayin' a rhyme
|
I often wonder what ya think of mine
|
Is it fresh or weak, or is it live or dead?
|
Yo, it's got ta be somethin' if you're boppin' your head
|
To the beat, can I get an amen brother?
|
Liked that rhyme? Well here goes another...
|
|
[Hold up, hold up, hold up. Check it out. Before we go any further we
|
gotta announce who we are. I am DJ K-Rock and this is my homegirl, MC
|
Lyte. Kick it for 'em!]
|
|
Verse 2
|
|
We had to pause for station identification
|
Now ya know my name here's some more information
|
Well, let's see, what you wanna know about me?
|
MC L-Y-T-E
|
[The Queen] Nah, that's too corny
|
[The Sexy] Nah, that gets the guys too horny
|
[The Best] Now that sounds conceited
|
But what is true is true, so it has to be repeated
|
The best is Lyte, when I'm on the mic
|
And MC's look straight ahead cos this pitch'll make your neck tired
|
And I say loosen up and relax
|
The fiction you been livin' Imma fill with facts
|
Right now...
|
|
[MC Lyte, DJ K-Rock. Name of the group is Me and My DJ. Kickin' it
|
live in '88. Do it.]
|
|
Verse 3
|
|
I am woman, hear me roar
|
Comin' out fresher and flyer than I did before
|
That's right, I'm well respected
|
Don't get stupid, I'm well protected
|
If ya wanna battle I'm well prepared
|
Me and K-Rock are far from scared, you know what
|
We're brave, livin' in a cave of gold
|
Waitin' for the misbehaved to get bold
|
But as I look around so far so good
|
MC's behaving just like they should
|
Hands are folded, no whispering or passing notes
|
All attention to me ya have to devote
|
I'm like a teacher, but then again not quite
|
Cos a teacher's salary I'm makin' a night
|
On the mic rhymes witty and bright
|
Maybe that's why the name is Lyte
|
Yo, bust it, Imma end it right here
|
DJ K-Rock, you end it over there
|
