Ego Trip * The Big Playback — текст песни (Marley Marl f MC Shan)

..* Ego Trip`s Book of Rap Lists; p. 50 *..

[Verse 1]
All these beats and my rhymes attached
Form the new creation called the Marley Scratch
We`re always steered in a positive course
His beats, my rhymes, combined make force
I say it`s like a force cos the force is strong
And if you think we`re weak I`d say you`re wrong
All you other DJ`s are a bunch of jerks
Marley give `em an example how a DJ works

[Verse 2]
Since you just heard how a DJ sound
The name Marley Marl, I will break it down
The M is for Master of Scratch
And if the needle was to slip it`s the needle he`ll catch
The A is a letter that you set apart
I wouldn`t call his beats music, I would call it Art
The R just stands for the way he Rock
Which is 24-oh-7 around the clock
The L is for Lyrics that I write
When put to his music sounds out of sight
The E is for Every beat he make
Which sucker DJ`s persist to take
Don`t play with the Y cos it isn`t a game
You ax Why do you put the other DJ`s to shame?
After this there shouldn`t be a story to tell
At the end of that is M-A-R-L
This paragraph here has come to a end
Marley, can we hear your funky fresh scratchin` again?

[Verse 3]
I never got caught in the game of Tag
My name is MC Shan, no need to brag
MC`s brag about theirself all through their rhyme
You can see I got quality, won`t waste my time
If I did not mean it, I wouldn`t have said it
I`m gonna give the man behind the wheels some credit
I`m not tryna say that he can`t be beat
But Marley Marl can stand on his own two feet
Since a DJ like him is so in demand
Marley won`t you get on and show `em where you stand

[Verse 4]
He can go on but I won`t insist
How many fortunate MC`s have a DJ like this
Every time I grab the mic I always have a plan
He`s DJ Marley Marl and I am MC Shan
Combined we`re fresh, this you must admit
Don`t ever wanna hear you say we ain`t worth jack
To be a DJ or an MC well it isn`t no thing
If you ever wanna learn then just give us a ring
Like I just said, it wasn`t no thing
You either have to be a ace, a jack, a queen or a king
When you`re one of these, that means you`re the best
And the people of today won`t settle for less
We can be a jack or king, we can play the place
But we`d rather be a DJ and an MC ace

[Verse 5]
If you ever wanna battle, be at your best
Because a man like Marley just does not fess
In that battle you must give your all
Or just be prepared to take your fall
Cos a lotta DJ`s already tried
There ain`t been one yet that`s qualified
To think you can beat him, you must be nuts
Just listen real close to his scratchin` cuts

[Verse 6]
The man Marley Marl can bring you to tears
He`s not a new jack, he been down for years
On the two turntables I would say he`s nice
Every cut he makes is so precise
When I said precise inside my rhyme
To put it to you straight that means right on time
Every jam he throws he always rocked
Don`t refer to him as the neighbourhood jock
To all you DJ`s who are always fessin`
From this man you can learn a lesson
You heard Dimples D when she took her stand
She said (Marley Marl is one hell of a man)
..
Gotta get it off my chest, to put my mind at ease
Since when you heard a DJ make cuts like these?
