| Artist | Masta Ace |
| Album | Take a Look Around |
| 作词 : Masta Ace | |
| "Is everybody ready? All right, here we go" | |
| Allow me to begin, once again my friend | |
| Yo, it's Ace in Action, here to send | |
| Any and all MC's into a frenzy | |
| Cause I'll take a rapper out just like a Benzi | |
| Yeah, this ain't the same old, lame old | |
| Bragging and nagging, yo all that became old | |
| Years ago, and yo, here's a pro- | |
| fession that will better and freshen the soul | |
| I am going on and on like an adventure | |
| Some of y'all are offered that cause I sent ya | |
| Hmmm, this move is forward, or would | |
| You like it if I pause, yeah you sure would | |
| But I ain't pausing, no stop, just like a freeway | |
| You're claiming too close, I need some leeway | |
| Cause it's about time for the party to get a | |
| Little bit hyper and yo, this is a letter to the better | |
| So go check the mail for yours, I unveil the jaws | |
| Then I dog ya, get down on all fours | |
| So he can blow the capital A, the dream | |
| Rhymes are fierce, pierce your ears like a laser beam | |
| Reach, and I'll teach you each the speech | |
| Spectrum, even if you add bleach | |
| It won't fade or run, cause it's made of one- | |
| hundred percent knowledge to weigh a ton | |
| Listen bud, yo the rhyme's a dud | |
| Pencil or pen and I'll draw | |
| Blood I'll take a strong stance, strictly long pants | |
| No short-taking, when you hear my song, dance! | |
| Cause you can't keep still, so dance til | |
| You drop or the hip-hop stop, but it never will | |
| Yeah, now if you're better, then here's the move | |
| Ace in Action, I'm here to show and prove | |
| Plain and simple, you train my rhyme a pimple | |
| Bust it, and watch it in your temple | |
| You need Buffrin, you're suffering, can you cope? | |
| Nah, nope, cause it's dope, and you hope | |
| I might slip or trip, stall or fall | |
| But all hope is lost, you've been stalled | |
| Drugged, you've been bugged if I'd said a | |
| Another line in this verse, this is a letter to the better | |
| I'm flowing, so in fact, kind of rivery | |
| Are you a dope MC? Special delivery | |
| There's no time, here's a rhyme, go ahead open it | |
| This is a letter to the better, I know you're hoping it | |
| Might be some claim on my greatness | |
| But once I state this, watch the crabs rate this | |
| You wear a crown, you don't deserve one | |
| You need a meal for the mind and I'll serve one | |
| Like a chef so def, I'm gonna rip up | |
| Rhymes they gonna rip up those that turn a lip up | |
| One page at a time, you keep reading | |
| Each stage of the rhyme, where's it leading? | |
| You want to know where a path leads, you follow it | |
| I feed you your pride and make you swallow it | |
| Used to be an innocent bystander and the | |
| Lotta years filled my ears with slander | |
| Why should I choose to get used to the way you burn? | |
| When will you learn that every rapper has a turn? | |
| And when the spotlight shines on you, you ought to glow | |
| And show, the next man how to grow | |
| And so, enough said about yourself | |
| The central wealth of our people is mental health | |
| And through rhyme, watch as a few climb | |
| Non stop, straight to the top just to get a | |
| Great big piece of the pie, this is a letter to the better |
