Uh huh, well the name is Latifah, you hear me coming through
|
the spreaker. Hit it Mark, 45 king
|
|
I am a bill, yes I'm only a bill when
|
It's time to ill I get ill and time to chill
|
I chill, my homeboy said this was the D.A.I.S.Y. age
|
I take it as meaning you have to get crazy paid
|
You hope I'm from your borough, because I'm thorough
|
You want me to be down with you, to be seen walking around with you
|
Go to the store and buy a brew and rock a rhyme or two
|
So you can bite it, you taste it, you like it
|
You think I'm sleeping on you? Please, don't even try it
|
The name is Latifah, the scene, it is mine
|
The 45 King keeps the beat and the time while I
|
Rock to the rhythm and keep it blowing out
|
So don't try to turn me inside out
|
|
Latifah is the name you love
|
Flying through rhymes like a dove
|
Slapping suckers with a glove
|
Challenge me and you will burn
|
Yes in the fire you will burn
|
|
It's so so simply done
|
When I find that I have to run
|
Lyrics to music by the King of Swing, The 45 King
|
The words we bring I write, and sing
|
Cause I am Latifah, the Queen of course
|
Don't try to get yours off, because the cause is lost
|
Mark conducts the beat, I watch it hit them
|
Won't you chill? I don't need another victim
|
To add to the list of aggrivation
|
Subtracting suckers like a math computation
|
We are not teaching pupils and subjects with no scruples
|
This is a King and Queen creation
|
So hello hello hello and how ya doing?
|
Forget the smalltalk now, it's time for me to ruin
|
Those who don't believe in what I'm saying
|
When I put up the wall of words ain't no way into my Queendom
|
Controlled by me, the heir to the throne is the Ruler Lord Ramsey
|
The Ruler Lord, to him there is no equal
|
He grabs it and starts bombing people
|
Don't listen to me to figure me out
|
Because you can't turn my mind inside out
|
|
Latifah is the name you love
|
Flying through rhymes like a dove
|
Slapping suckers with a glove
|
Challenge me and you will burn
|
Yes in the fire you will burn
|
|
Rhyming's not a question of one superiority
|
But rather how you delegate the use of your authority
|
I know who you are, and I know who you are to me
|
But I came here just to party
|
If it's a show you want, the show it live
|
And if it's trouble you seek, I have arrived
|
When Mark requests my approval, I nod
|
And after each and every single rhyme I thank God
|
Altough a taste of my body would soothe you
|
I give you just my voice and watch the rhythm move you
|
The method of my lyrics makes the funky people feel it
|
And Lord have mercy on those that try to steal it
|
Latifah is a name meaning "delicate and sensitive"
|
But I have no problem formulating sentences
|
To break you down to the ground
|
I won't use violence, the color of this is brown
|
And I am down, but never ever down and out
|
So don't try to turn me inside out
|
|
Latifah is the name you love
|
Flying through rhymes like a dove
|
Slapping suckers with a glove
|
Challenge me and you will burn
|
Yes in the fire you will burn
|
|
Jah know? Cause ah...
|
|
Music, 45 King, music Latifah the Queen
|
Music, domination to bring the world
|
Irie, say in the fire you will burn
|
[Repeats to fade]
