| Showin your skill upon the mic, originality was key
|
| And the law was not to bite in the highest degree (I hear that)
|
| Plus you had to battle cats for respect
|
| (Like Moe Dee, Busy Bee, MC Shan and KRS?)
|
| Yeah kid, it goes deeper but you get the picture
|
| You had to have lyrics and plus hot beats to get the mixture
|
| As always you had to have the ill DJ
|
| Technician with precision, switch the fader all day
|
| A must to have these additives to smash and battle kids
|
| (Well yo, that’s like today’s cats?) Nah, that’s a negative
|
| Today’s MC’s don’t possess these qualities
|
| So I put you to the test on this musical quest
|
| What’s the question?
|
| What made the music change through the time?
|
| What’s the answer?
|
| They started gettin paid to rhyme
|
| What’s the question?
|
| What happened to the culture as a whole?
|
| What’s the answer?
|
| Too many MC’s sold their soul
|
| What’s the question?
|
| What happened to the MC’s from the past?
|
| What’s the answer?
|
| Not enough fans and no cash
|
| What’s the question?
|
| How do we get it back like before?
|
| What’s the answer?
|
| More skills and niggas gotta be raw
|
| What’s the question?
|
| How so many groups fall apart?
|
| What’s the answer?
|
| They in it but it’s not from the heart
|
| Look at the records in this store, know the faces and the names
|
| All the places that they come from and staked it as their claim
|
| Acclaimed writers like Kane, G Rap, Doug and the Biz
|
| DJ’s like Cool V, Mister Cee in the mix
|
| (Yo, I heard this one kid who made beats and rhymed correct)
|
| You must be talkin 'bout this man here, his name is Lord Finesse
|
| (It was another cat too, yo this nigga beats was hot
|
| He was down with CL Smooth) The Soul Brother Pete Rock
|
| Plenty others I could name but the most by far
|
| These pioneers most revered, group named Gang Starr
|
| Put it down through the years, most respected by the peers
|
| For Primo’s hot beats, Guru’s voice so clear
|
| (Yeah, I know about them, «Hard to Earn» one of the best
|
| What about the Cella Dwellas, Special Ed, and Das EFX?)
|
| Ah shit, you got some history, you’re buildin on your lessons
|
| When you see me next time be refined for your confession
|
| Yo, I’mma cop this, word up
|
| Yeah, yo do that, you do that
|
| I heard this on «Future Flavas» the other night
|
| Okay, okay
|
| I’mma get two of them
|
| What’s the question?
|
| How long can it last like this?
|
| What’s the answer?
|
| When all MC’s are gone and they’re missed
|
| What’s the question?
|
| What happened to the sound of the East?
|
| What’s the answer?
|
| Niggas went south to tryin to eat
|
| What’s the question?
|
| When the niggas gonna dig back in the crates?
|
| What’s the answer?
|
| When certain niggas stop tryin to hate
|
| What’s the question?
|
| When will all the bullshit stop?
|
| What’s the answer?
|
| When your top MC’s stop gettin dropped
|
| What’s the question?
|
| What you say your name was again, kid?
|
| Yo, El Da Sensei, man, Artifacts, man
|
| Aight peace
|
| Yeah, we comin from the Bricks
|
| Hold up
|
| «Wrong Side of da Tracks».
|
| Yeah man
|
| Yo, that’s you on this cover!
|
| …that's me
|
| You didn’t tell me you had joints out
|

|

|
| Always workin
|
