Watch as the room rocks
Mentally moon walk
Mixed media slang
Banging in your boom box
Verbal violence, lyrical stylists
In a time when rock-hip hop rhymes are childish
You cant tell me with rhymes that are empty
Rapping to a beat doesnt make you an MC
With your lack of skill and facility youre killing me
And a DJ in the group just for credibility
I heard it somewhere you were getting help with your rhymes
Youre not an MC if someone else writes your lines
Rapping over rock doesnt make you a pioneer
Cause rock and hip hop collaborated for years
But now theyre getting readily mixed and matched up
Well after a fast buck and all the tracks suck
So how does it stack up, none of its real
You wanna be an MC, you gotta study the skill

Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you everytime 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 dont have the hip hop energy
With a tendency to make up stories
Sounding like the only hip hop youve heard is top 40
And your record companies completely miss it
And all the kids are dissing it for not being legitimate
So in a battle you cant hack it, react with whack shit
And get smacked with verbal back flips
Get your ass kicked a fabulous battle catalyst
Its taken decades for MCs to establish this
Youre new to hip hop, and welcome if youre serious
But not on the mic, leave that to the experience

Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Bring it to you everytime 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 everytime like this?
Who can rock a rhyme like this?
Step step up step step up
