[ VERSE 1 ]
The microphone stand is where I make my escape
Out of the blue I see some dope rhymes that I shoulda take
I used to say em off the top of my head, man, could I drop a
Megaton bomb that was odd to stop, a
Movin train, hope I don`t have to explain
That any rapper step in my way, he`s bound to be slain
The stage is the court, I`m the judge and the juror
And when rappers pass me by they should Heil to the Fьhrer
Although you may hate me and down to degrade me
There`s some suckers walkin `round tryin to cold imitate me
Never cursin or rehearsin cause I`m so versatile
And you can tell by these words it`s a freestyle
[ VERSE 2 ]
MC`s I wipe out and rub them, don`t care if you love them
And I wish you placed my name ?that flies? way up above them
Each and every show I do ends with applause
Here`s lookin at you, kid, now go for yours
And if you choose not to, then I`m gonna take it
A night you`ll never forget: it`s just what I make it
And it won`t take long for me to sing a new song
Because the key to gettin paid is you should never prolong
See my mind is set to automatically jet
You can`t name the day you seen me let a mic pass yet
Once the microphone is mine I start by thankin you greatly
And you haven`t heard of anybody duffin us lately
Never cursin or rehearsin cause I`m so versatile
You can tell by these words it`s a freestyle
[ VERSE 3 ]
Just take another look at this one tough cookie
And could never be duffed by a new jack rookie
See, before I came with an MC name
And I feel sorry for the rapper that tries to proclaim
Because you won`t have a chance and you will need advancin
Marley hasn`t made a beat yet that wasn`t enhancin
As a matter of fact I keep my rhymes intact
Severly`s how you get served for callin me wack
Never again, I`m reminiscin
Last rapper in the world you should think about dissin
Cause my lyrics are burnin, Marley`s tables are turnin
And ?sufficiant? we give suckers are watchin and learnin
MC Shan and Marley Marl and we`re respected so greatly
And you haven`t heard of anybody duffin us lately
Never cursin or rehearsin cause I`m so versatile
And you can tell by these words it`s a freestyle
[ VERSE 4 ]
I come runnin when the microphone calls
Say a few ???, say ???, say ho and yes yes y`all
It gotta be ill cause I don`t write no frill
You used to love to hear the story and you always will
We put the B, the B, the Bridge on p-plastic
??? like ???
But the ??? made the jivva-jivva-jam c-classic
Come to think about it, we`re respected so greatly
And you haven`t heard of anybody duffin us lately
Never cursin or rehearsin, I`m so versatile
And you can tell by these words it`s a freestyle
