Lyrics:Now what you hear is not a test" > Sugarhill Gang
(cut up 4X by DJ Premier)
[Guru]

Well goodness gracious let me just take this
time out to pull a rhyme out and
update this
For you and yours simply because
Some MC's have luck but suck

So I pluck em like feathers on the back of a chicken
Cause I'm mad like a pit when my man
says "sick 'em"
Positive is the mindstate but it could still mean that
I will kick
a ill, malicious like mean rap
Suckers they forced me, to knock em all out and
They
think they know things, like what I'm about and
They try to analyze criticize scandalize

The outcome is death, don't ask me to sympathize
Realize, that I'm not to be played
with
I'll flip so fast, you won't know I'm the same kid
I'm tired and fed, with all
the weak stuff said
All the phony-baloney, that went out like Pro-Keds
You've got no
leads, so you shoot blanks
It's me the crowd thanks as I step to the top ranks

Bankin my money, and investin it wisely
Snatchin up chumps when they try to sneak by me

I'm the dominant one, call me the prominant one
And as I'm speakin I'll be bombin the
dumb
deaf and blind cause I was born with a sharp mind
Eatin MC's with ease like
it's lunchtime
or crunchtime, when they get done without warning
I'll bust that butt
from nighttime til morning
Your song's boring, and so I'm scoring
much points cause
when it's time to throw joints
I cause havoc, the mic I grab is like savage
I invade
the stage, and make you get off
The force is like a three-eight, blowin your head off

And that's just in case you might be wearin a vest
Cause you're simply a pest in this
mess I suggest you
"Take a rest"
"If this meaning doesn't manifest, put it to rest"
--> KRS-One
(DJ Premier cuts 2X)
[Guru]
Don't ever sleep son, peep one or
two of these lines here
Arranged by a great brain, delivering rhymes clear
and
concise with a nice dope voice and
killin the fakes like a taste of some poison

Punks are thinkin they're alla that, their voices are all flat
They're findin their names,
in a Wack Rapper's Almanac
Me follow that hollow crap, no way Jose
I'll seek out a
better sound, to somethin Premier plays
Days will go by, and soon you'll know why

MC's like me will rise like the Enterprise
Starship, headin straight for the target

Destination, a place where no perpetration
is permitted, the Guru is with it to explain

How some MC's are scared to ride on a Four train
Or any other train in the city, for
that matter
Playin a role that they stole like a batter
But I know they ain't so
I'll paint the real picture
My vocals go solo and like a bolo I'll hitcha
square in
your face I'll crack your ribs and your chest
Cause you thought your off-brand jam was the
best
You fessed cause you guessed people would be impressed
I'm gonna bust that
bubble on the double "take a rest"
(DJ Premier cuts "take a rest" for the chorus)

[Guru]
Sit back and reflect, ponder and chill out
Rhymes like daggers make blood
spill out
But you can't blame me, for bringin disaster
With all these ducks, claimin
that they're the masters
Only thing they mastered, is how to get wacker
As I roll
uphill, they roll downhill faster
Now they're wondering how they lost their touch

Wanna buy my rhymes but mine cost too much
I'm the innovative one, call me the creative one

and I won't stop til the job is done
All the slobs just run when I come to get some

Cause they know better, than to challenge this go-getter
They get bust you can trust
cause I won't let a
booty-ass rapper get wins against me?
I guarantee that I won't
act friendly
Cause crabs have a nerve and deserve to get whipped on
Their girls get
kissed on, while they get flipped on
I slaughter and slay, or slap em up quick
Cause
the lyrics they kick make me seriously sick
No substance, no value, but nevertheless

They're gettin daytime play but I still say they should "take a rest"
(DJ Premier cuts "take
a rest" for four bars, then song fades
