Alive |
| I have never been more ready in my entire life to do this right now |
| Never |
| It’s all been leading up to this moment |
| All right now, right here |
| My whole life |
| We’ve got rhyme selection in a wide array |
| J’ai des bonbons pour vous, mangez |
| The party people scream «Oui oui c’est vrai!» |
| 'cause I got a remote for my b-day |
| I use the microphone like Picasso used clay |
| Down with freckles from around the bay |
| Peace to Bambaataa and Jazzy Jay |
| I rock on the mic from here to Bombay |
| I give it my best to say come what may |
| 'Cause everybody’s got their dues to pay |
| I’m looking sideways like my man Pele |
| Getting' on like Ali Boom ba yay |
| So fed up with racism today |
| Time to speak up and not turn away |
| Make the sun shine when it’s cloudy and gray |
| Dip dip dive, so-socialize |
| Open up your ears and clean out your eyes |
| If you learn to love you’re in for a surprise |
| It could be nice to be alive |
| I’m talking doody rhymes to a brand new height |
| I shine on the mic like UltraBite |
| Created a monster with these rhymes I write |
| Goatee metal rap please say goodnight |
| Now here’s a little song that you might not like |
| My DJ’s name is Mix Master Mike |
| It’s a real pity that you people gotta bite |
| But I can understand 'cause he sounds so nice |
| Reading you the news 'cause I’m Country Mike |
| Use a microphone like Shazaam uses tights |
| Try to keep clear of that hate and spite |
| So I keep my mind still like the still of night |
| Now who in the world do you want to fight |
| It’s against the system that we should unite |
| Homophobics ain’t alright |
| If you learn to love then you might love life |
| Dip dip dive, so-socialize |
| Open up your ears and clean out your eyes |
| If you learn to love you’re in for a surprise |
| It could be nice to be alive |
| Bringing back that old New York Rap |
| Now you can shuffle numbers but facts is facts |
| So many billionaires while so many lack |
| So before the poor decides to react |
| Come on party people and share up your stack |
| Now, I’m a break it down to the brass tacks |
| Do the Biz Mark dance and the cabbage patch |
| You try to turn the key but you broke the latch |
| Sneak into my files for some rhymes to snatch |
| I’d like to have a say on the income tax |
| Don’t want to help build bombs and that’s the fact |
| No money for health care so what’s the catch |
| The man got you locked with no key to the latch |
| Mike and Adam have got my back |
| You bring the mic and we’ll bring the rap |
| Turn on the P.A. |
| and rock your shack |
| Don’t smoke Cheeba, can’t stand crack |
| Dip dip dive, so-socialize |
| Open up your ears and clean out your eyes |
| If you learn to love you’re in for a surprise |
| It could be nice to be alive |
