[Run]
|
As I proceed indeed to take the lead with speed
|
All the suckers'll back off and fall
|
But this is the hype I like and the type of mic
|
You wanna fight? Just gimme a call
|
I'm going to breeze..
|
|
[D.M.C.].. past the other MC's
|
And D's rhymes'll flow like water
|
The wind, the rain, the hurricane, it's all the same
|
With rhymes in order
|
|
[Run]
|
And yo my name is Run, and yeah I'm all that
|
Slap back the KING of the daddy mack's
|
But that ain't the news I choose to tell
|
I gotta use the cruise that bruises well
|
For the grime you slime, you try to diss mine
|
I put your head to bed, cause it's bedtime
|
I knock out your teeth beneath your gums
|
Now you're mumblin - you bum!
|
(Turn out the lights Run!) Picture punks playin me close
|
when I'm hard as hell, and that's all labelled SUCKERS
|
Waitin for the King of Swing to bring
|
"Beats to the Rhyme," and yeah I'm runnin things
|
Now that's the name of the phrase,
|
so don't be amazed at the ways my rhyme displays
|
You gotta make the best of what you got to get to the top
|
in hip-hop, you gotta diggy diggy don't STOP!
|

[D.M.C.]
|
The ?? artist, hittin hardest, smartest
|
Professor, compressor, impressor to the lesser
|
low-life ?? of the mic
|
I come CORRECT! (You surely right)
|
The atmosphere is clear when I appear
|
Here to wax and tax an MC for mere pennies
|
And if any, wanna get with D
|
I crash and bash and smash his ass for free
|
Black man! Originating creating a beat
|
I educate and straight from off the streets
|
HARD, like a man was born to be
|
It just just happened in rap I was born to be
|
KING, yeah me the king of the rock
|
So let's rock the spot and diggy don't STOP!
|
|
[musical interlude]
|
|
[DMC] Funky lyrics that you hear
|
[both] AS WE RELEASE THE MASTERPIECE THE MUSIC WILL CEASE
|
[Run] and I'll put up the peace sign
|
|
[D.M.C.]
|
And I roll with soul and reach my goal, the story is told
|
D's bold, and suckers'll fold
|
|
[Run]
|
And I'm Run my son the fun has just begun
|
and some are slum, and make em sell til
|
crumbles crumb they hum, those fools will come
|
And none have never done Run, Jay!
|
|
[D.M.C.]
|
D.M.C. the king is me and I be
|
the voice of black community
|
So be the unity inside of me, and we
|
will all agree about this - don't STOP!
