I was a fiend before I became a teen |
| [00:22.47] |
I melted microphone instead of cones of ice cream |
| [00:24.93] |
Music orientated so when hip hop was originated |
| [00:27.60] |
Fitted like pieces of puzzles complicated |
| [00:30.12] |
'Cause I grabbed the mic and try to say, yes y'all |
| [00:32.36] |
They tried to take it and say that I'm too small |
| [00:35.16] |
Cool 'cause I don't get upset |
| [00:37.58] |
I kick a hole in the speaker pull the plug then I jet |
| [00:39.99] |
|
| [00:40.46] |
Back to the lab without a mic to grab |
| [00:42.87] |
So then I add all the rhymes I had |
| [00:45.04] |
One after the other one, then I make another one |
| [00:47.68] |
To dis the opposite then ask if the brother's done |
| [00:50.46] |
I get a craving like I fiend for nicotine |
| [00:52.79] |
But I don't need a cigarette, know what I mean? |
| [00:55.23] |
I'm raging, ripping up the stage and |
| [00:57.29] |
Don't it sound amazing |
| [00:59.13] |
'Cause every rhyme is made and |
| [01:00.45] |
Thought of, 'cause it's sort of an addiction |
| [01:03.59] |
Magnetized by the mixin |
| [01:06.63] |
Vocals, vocabulary, your verses, just stuck in |
| [01:09.13] |
The mic is a Drano, volcanoes erupting |
| [01:11.71] |
Rhymes overflowing, gradually growing |
| [01:14.22] |
Everything is written in the cold So it can coin,cide~ |
| [01:18.70] |
My thoughts to guide, forty-eight tracks to slide |
| [01:21.68] |
The invincible, microphone fiend Rakim |
| [01:24.37] |
spread the word, 'cause I'm in |
| [01:26.45] |
E F F E C T, a smooth operator operating correctly |
| [01:31.46] |
|
| [01:31.77] |
But back to the problem, I gotta habit |
| [01:34.36] |
You can't solve it, silly rabbit |
| [01:36.63] |
The prescription is a hyper tone that's thorough when |
| [01:39.26] |
I fiend for a microphone like heroin |
| [01:42.27] |
Soon as the bass kicks, I need a fix |
| [01:44.55] |
Give me a stage and a mic and a mix |
| [01:46.95] |
And I'll put you in a mood |
| [01:48.31] |
Or is it a state of unawareness? |
| [01:49.35] |
Beware, it's the reanamator |
| [01:52.01] |
A menace to a microphone, a lethal weapon |
| [01:54.47] |
An assasinator, if the people ain't stepping |
| [01:56.97] |
You see a part of me that you never seen |
| [01:59.37] |
When I'm fiending for a microphone, I'm the microphone fiend |
| [02:02.62] |
After twelve, I'm worse that a Gremlin |
| [02:04.84] |
Feed me Hip hop and I start trembling |
| [02:07.15] |
The thrill of suspense is intense, you're horrified |
| [02:09.75] |
But this ain't the cinemas of 'Tales From the Dark Side' |
| [02:12.31] |
By any means necessary, this is what has to be done |
| [02:15.11] |
Make way 'cause here I come, my DJ cuts material, grand imperial |
| [02:21.57] |
|
| [02:22.41] |
It's a must that I bust any mic you're hand to me |
| [02:25.15] |
It's inherited, it's runs in the family |
| [02:27.87] |
I wrote the rhyme that broke the bull's back |
| [02:30.41] |
If that don't slow 'em up, I carry a full pack |
| [02:32.96] |
Now I don't want to have to let off, you should of kept off |
| [02:35.47] |
You didn't keep the stage warm, step off |
| [02:37.96] |
Ladies and Gentleman, you're about to see |
| [02:40.85] |
A past time hobby about to be |
| [02:43.19] |
Take it to the maximum, I can't relax see |
| [02:45.68] |
I'm hype as a hyperchrondriac 'cause the rap be one |
| [02:48.28] |
Hell of a antidote, something you can't smoke |
| [02:50.72] |
More than dope, you're trying to move away but you can't, you're broke |
| [02:53.45] |
More than cracked up, you should have backed up |
| [02:55.89] |
For those who act up need to be more than smacked up |
| [02:58.47] |
Any entertainer, I got a torture chamber |
| [03:01.04] |
One on one and I'm the remainder |
| [03:03.53] |
So close your eyes and hold your breath(breath) |
| [03:06.27] |
And I'm a hit'cha wit the blow of death(death) |
| [03:08.80] |
Before you go, you'll remember you seen |
| [03:11.20] |
The fiend of a microphone, I'm the microphone fiend |
| [03:14.17] |
|
| [03:18.33] |
The microphone fiend.................... |
