You can cha-cha-cha to this Mardis Gras
|
I'm the dopest female that you've heard thus far
|
And I do get better, the voice gets wetter
|
Nobody gets hurt (as long as you let her)
|
Do my thing with an '89 swing
|
The dopeness I write, I guarantee delight
|
To the hip-hop maniac, the Uptown brainiac
|
In full effect, MC Lyte is back
|
And better than before as if that was possible
|
My competition, you'll find them in the hospital
|
Visiting time, I think it's on a Sunday
|
But notice they only get one day to shine
|
The rest of the week is mine
|
And I'll blind you with the science that the others have yet to find
|
So come along and I'll lead you the right way
|
Just clap your hands to the words I say, come on...
|
|
[Kick this one here for me and my DJ]
|
|
I've got the power to spread out and devour
|
At the same time I'll eat you up with a rhyme
|
But I'll let you slide cuz you accidently hopped on the wrong side
|
Now come on, that's suicide
|
Hypothetically speaking
|
Ok, let's say you didn't know what you were doing
|
You're new in town, and you're looking around
|
For another name to ruin, and it's me that you're pursuing?
|
Well well well, I'll be damned
|
I might as well tell you who I am
|
I am the capital L-Y-T-E
|
And it's shocking I'm the one you're mocking
|
Oh yes, I've been watching you watching me
|
And like the fat on your back it's plain to see
|
That you're a wannabe, but you can't be what you're not
|
So you better start living with what you got
|
|
[Kick this one here for me and my DJ]
|
|
Yeah, DJ K-Rock when you hear a scratch
|
Now it's time to kick a rhyme out the batch
|
And you're the receiver eager as a beaver
|
Time to convert the non-believer
|
That I'm a roadrunner leaving you in the dust
|
I can adjust to the times and at times I might just get quicker
|
Than the ticker of your pacemaker
|
More tender than a roni but harder than a jawbreaker
|
So don't ever second guess me
|
And if you're wondering who could the best be
|
Think a second and recollect the worst whipping you ever had yet
|
And I'll bet that I did it
|
My fingerprints are still on you
|
How many times I gotta warn you
|
About the light? It'll blind your sight
|
But the rhythm will still guide you through the night
|
