I throw my tape on
And I watch ya
Three second later
I got ya,shakin` your head
Dancin` instead of sittin`
The rhymes kick
The beats hittin` you
Just like a home run
Slammin` like a slam dunk
Riding the wave that James Brown gave funk
It happened to James,like it happened to me
How you think I feel to see another MC
Gettin` paid , usin` my rap style
And I`m playn` the background meanwhile
I ain`t with that
You can forget that
You took my style
I`m takin` it back
I`m come back like Return of the Jedi
Sucker MC`s in the place that said I
Could only rock rhymes
Only rock crowds
But never rock records
How ya like me now (x2)
Now brothers are riding me
Like a pony
I`m no phony
I`m the only real micaroni
Playin` the mic like it`s supposed to be played
New jacks,you all shoulda stayed out of the business
What is this,amateur night at the Apollo?
Get off this stage,I`m in a rage
I`m like a lion that`s been trapped in a cage
I`m the real king , rap is a jungle
I never understood,how could one go
To a party,watch me,stand around and jock me
Become a rapper,then try to rock me
Scheming like a demon,you`re screamin` and dreamin`
I`m from the old school,I used to see men
Dies for less,but I`m not living that way
I`ll let my mic do the talkin`
And let the music play
How ya like me now (x2)
Rap is an art
And I`m a Picasso
But of course
Why else would you try so
Hard to paint a picture, and try to get ya
Self in my shoes,but they won`t fit ya
I`m bigger and better,forget about deffer
Every time I rocked the mic,I left a
Stain in your brain that will remain
Stuck in the back of your brain till you see me
Again,respect,I come correct
The rhymes I select are nothing short of
Vernacular`s pure and I can insure
Life od death with my breath,my voice is a cure
I heal life from the words I spread
I`ll make a sick man rock on his death bed
Sucker MC`s , I`ll make your girl say ow
She`s jockin`
How ya like me now (x2)
It irked my nerve
When I heard
A sucker rapper that I know I`ll serve
Run around town sayin` he is the best
Is that a test?
I`m not impressed
Get real,you`re nothin` but a toy
Don`t ya know I`ll serve that boy
Just like a waiter
Hit`em with a place of
These fresh rhymes and
Make sure that he
Pays the bill,and leave him standin` still
When he`s had enough,hit him with a refil
And for dessert it won`t be no ice cream
I`m just gonna splatter and shatter his pipe dream
Make him feel the wrath,beat him and laugh
Then when I finish them,I`m gonna ask him
Who`s the bests,and if he don`t say Moe Dee
I`ll take my whip and make him call himself Toby
Put him on punishment just like a child,then ask
How ya like me now
Whip him good,then I`ll make him sweat
Talkin` about battles and never had a battle yet
But if we ever did
How could you beat me
You`re so petrified
Even scared to meet me
My word`s the law
That`s why you don`t beef
You`re nothing but a punk,track star,and a thief
So I`m puttin` you on punishment
Just like a child
Never touch another mic
How ya like me now (x2)
I could continue
There`s more on the menu
But relax `cos I`m so far in you
You had enough
I know you`re overstuffed
If I keep going
You`ll be throwin` up
Old rhymes I used to say
Back in the day
When you used to me
To my parties and pay
Nobody`s ever gonna rack me
This I vow
So all I wanna say is
How ya like me now (X2)
How ya like me now ( fade out with echo)
