It's a fact I'll attest to, mess around and I'll arrest you
|
I ain't playing, you know what I'm saying?
|
This ain't the best you've ever hear coming from a female MC
|
But you know what I mean? (Hail to the Queen!)
|
This MC stands for "Microphone Commando"
|
When I command that you take a hand
|
And throw it up in the air, yeah, just like that now
|
Chill, and watch me rap cause I'm flowing (Flowing)
|
Just like water I slaughter (Slaughter)
|
A battle, put me in it, I win it
|
The mission is music and rhythm
|
Rhythm backed by words, all in my system
|
System by techniques, techniques I got my heart in
|
Heart into the music, music I take part in
|
One try, one God, and one destiny
|
Just dance for me
|
|
[Chorus 2x:]
|
Dance to the music
|
|
Now understand that you must (dance) because this is a beat to clap to
|
My brother Lance said "Latifah you got to make them get up off their feet"
|
So I put my rhyme to a DJ Mark beat
|
Ample samples, this for example
|
Are made by the 45 King, so cancel
|
Your plans of moving to the front lines
|
He's a DJ, producer, and mind you a friend of mine
|
I hop, dip, and spend with the children
|
So get down with the sound and you will lend
|
To let me bring while I bring
|
Queen Latifah to the 45 King, creating
|
A new style in the name of the Flavor Unit
|
That's the way we like it, so I'm doing it
|
So if you want to know what the plan is to be
|
I order you to dance for me
|
|
[Chorus 2x]
|
|
My voice is your choice at a stage show
|
I do it for the Flavor Unit to make you say "ho"
|
With powerful lyrics I'm armed
|
To let a sucker step up and get bombed
|
By a beat created by my producer
|
To break you out of the stuff that you're used to
|
This here is a moment of truth
|
So take the record to the DJ booth
|
And let's start this, let the beat get dumb
|
Cause I'm a shake it all night and then some
|
People dancing, I can spot 'em
|
When I take control, you know I got 'em
|
Stop the music? That's not a question
|
The Flavor Unit takes no suggestions
|
If you're not on the dance tip, here's your chance to be
|
I order you to dance for me
|
|
[Chorus 6x]
|
