Daddy Daddy tell me a story of how you took out that wack MC
|
No Daddy, tell them how you beat down that bootlegger
|
Daddy Daddy tell us a story!
|
|
[Big Daddy Kane]
|
Heh heh, alright, alright, alright y'all OK
|
Come on y'all, crowd around Daddy now OK? C'mon
|
Y'all just sit there and listen
|
I'ma tell you about the MC
|
and I'ma tell you about the bootlegger, OK?
|
Here we go children
|
|
It happened at a jam, some kid tried to sham on the program
|
So I had to silence the lamb and show him who I am
|
So I just set it off on my competitor
|
Freakin the funk as I hit em with crazy metaphors
|
Like back up off me Dukes, because you're trippin
|
You better dry your cranium off, cause your brain is slippin
|
You beatin me is somethin that I doubt
|
The only way you could bake Kane is workin in a crackhouse
|
No man alive can withstand the Kane flow
|
I kick so much flavor that my shoes look like a rainbow
|
You need a whole lot of practice, you thought that you was
|
on the money so I took you out like taxes!
|
Now you can Flea Off, releasin me G, easy be
|
to keep the great MC
|
Then I throw em I lean and mean record to spark
|
So I can school that ass just like Joe Clark
|
next I translated, my rap is more educated
|
and made it complicated for him to illustrate it
|
My dexterity, put him in fear of me
|
and had his mind bewildered by everything he was hearin see
|
That was enough to slow his whole train of thought down
|
So I just speeded the pace up more than enough for him to come around
|
I triple the words, when makin the rhymes, whatever the rhythm
|
Puttin his mind in a prison
|
And oh yeah, that's how I did em
|
|
That's how I did em (HUH) that's how I did em (HAH)
|
That's how I did em (HUH) that's how I did em (HAH)
|
That's how I did em (HUH) that's how I did em (HAH)
|
That's how I did em (HEYYYYYYYY)
|
|
I was out flex, lookin cold sex in a Lex'
|
Sippin on a Beck's, pumpin the remix of Das EFX
|
Drive down 125th with my man
|
And what did I see, bein sold at the stand?
|
A bunch of bootleg tapes that he had claim on it
|
So I snatched everything with my name on it
|
And give me that Kool G. Rap tape, and give me that Ice Cube
|
and all the Wu-Tang joints, cause they're my boys too
|
A man tryin to make a livin, I can't knock it
|
But now you tried to take money out of my pocket
|
Word to Miz, what the problem is, is that the kids
|
didn't buy it from The Wiz, they bought your shaky fibs so
|
now it's time to move him off the block
|
Pass me the glock cause I might make a body rock
|
And I'll break down sixteen shots
|
That's One + Eight + Seven on a undercover
|
bootlegger, you're worse than a beggar
|
Makin a fake profit, stop it
|
Cause I work hard for the money, to make cash flow
|
to have another come along and take my dough
|
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
|
So I just told my man, aiyyo
|
throw the tapes in the Lexus
|
Then we burned his whole stand down just like Waco, Texas
|
And then I jumped on the brother, with rage
|
Crushed his ribcage, damn did he get slayed
|
Cause I don't think he even know whatever hit him
|
Bootleggers beware, cause yeah I did em
|
|
That's how I did em (HUH) that's how I did em (HAH)
|
That's how I did em (HUH) that's how I did em (HAH)
|
That's how I did em (HUH) that's how I did em (HAH)
|
That's how I did em (HEYYYYYYYY)
|
|
Give it your best shot, bring it with all you got
|
And watch the bombs I drop just rock your knot
|
Cause it ain't wise to address me
|
I wouldn't advise a schoolteacher to test me
|
Cause I don't just do em, I run through em
|
And I don't just hurt, uh uh, I body work em
|
Lyrical torture, never could support ya
|
For steppin to me, agony is what it brought ya
|
Cause you never seen this type of lyrical genius
|
that could never be touched, and I mean this
|
So one love, I'ma leave you with the rhythm
|
Ain't no need to go off, cause yo hon know I did em
|
|
That's how I did em (HUH) that's how I did em (HAH)
|
That's how I did em (HUH) that's how I did em (HAH)
|
That's how I did em (HUH) that's how I did em (HAH)
|
That's how I did em (HEYYYYYYYY)
