"Sucka MC's please think twice" [Special Ed - Think About It]
Who'll be the sucka MC to get dismantled
I hope that you can handle your whipness
or sees ya flippin gettin
Down with my lazy boy
laidback style of speak
The funk makes you dance cheek to cheek
I be the black civilian
who is bound to make a million
Or make enough loot so
I can buy my own pavillion
Throw a fat party and invite everybody
And play all the old school hits like Lodi Dodi
Connections like OPEC
while ya hung up like a coatcheck
I'm real like a ruby while
ya fake like a pinchback
That's imitation gold if you didn't know
My rhymes flow
as my vocab' grows and grows
I freak it for the basslines
always walkin on ya frontline
Catch me while I'm boomin' in ya alpine
Yo I'm out like a shot from a tec
You need to think twice just to earn respect, so.
"Sucka MC's please think twice
You don't know what you doin'
Think about that" [Special Ed - Think About It]
Aiiyo, as I come through for '95
with the flav' so amazin'
the Boy Wonder's blazin'
Respect the mic check, one, two
Cause I display the funk material
as I stand imperial
To others, gotta lay low, undercover
Cats flow to the hands
for the crowd in the stands
So here I am, plus I rock to please the public
They want it, word son, they want it
To hear the Soul Brother
disperse words of wisdom
When InI comin' direct on the set
So represent, a lot of rap niggas came to win
But the style played out
when they chose a different route
Whatever, as I stay true to the game
Word to the troubled T-Roy
you know my name
Keep an eye on the stakes
as I watch my back
Think Twice before
you try to grab the mic and react.
"Sucka MC's please think twice
You don't know what you doin'
Think about that" [Special Ed - Think About It]
Yo beg your pardon...
When I put one to the head
now the funk shit startin'
Fine soul I headline for my public get mine
Yeah my rap subjects packed with potential
Plus the versatile elements to crush ya scent
I get down so cheer the mental
Rhyme-pro I'm Rob-O
the super spectacular
brown skin nigga from Africa
Blowin' up so it's impossible to get
With the highlight and fly right
and the niggas on my dick
Split when it's through,
gotta skip with the Guinness Crew
Give a shout out to my Uptown Crew, word up
From New York, New York the Big Apple
To the four square miles
Uptown armed for battle
Your niggas is nice,
but my advice is you can't suffice,
So Think Twice, uhh
