(Yeah)
Watch as the room rocks
Mentally moonwalk
Mix media slang banging in your boombox
Verbal violence
Lyrical stylist
In a time when rock/hip-hop rhymes are childish
You can't tell me with rhymes that are empty
Rappin' to a beat doesn't make you an MC
With all your lack of skill and facility you're killing me
And the DJ in the group just for credibility
I heard it some of you were getting help with your rhyme
You're not an MC if someone else writes your lines
Rappin' over rock doesn't make you a pioneer
'Cause rock and hip-hop have collaborated for years
But now they're gettig randomly mixed-and-matched up
All after a fast buck
And all the tracks suck
So how does it stack up? None of it's real
You wanna be an MC you gotta study the skill
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up, step, step up
So you pick up a pen and write yourself a new identity
But mentally you don't have the hip-hop energy
With the tendancy to make 'em stories
It sounded like the only hip-hop you heard was top 40 (top 40)
And the record companies completely miss it
And all the kids are dissin' it for not bein' legitimate
So in a battle you can't hack it
React with whack shit
And get smacked with verbal backflips
Get your ass kicked with a fabulous battle catalyst
Its taken decades for emcee's to establish this
You're new to hip-hop
And 'welcome' if your serious
But not on the mic leave that to the experienced
Using waves of sound, the true master paralyses his opponent
Making him vulnerable to attack
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up, step, step up
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up, step, step up
After years of painstaking research
By the world's leading sound scientists
We here at the sound institute have invented
A reliable audio weapon system
Actual movement of musical sound in space is
Used to carefully an attack
And neutralize the cellular structure of the human body
The question must be asked
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up, step, step up
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you every time like this
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step, step up, step, step up
