Yo, i was a fiend before i became a teen
i melted microphone instead of cones of ice cream
music orientated so when hip-hop was originated
fitted like pieces of puzzles, complicated
shot grabbed the mic and try to say, andquot; yes yand'all!andquot;
they tried to take it, and say that iand'm too small
cool, and'cause i donand't get upset
i kick a hole in the speaker, pull the plug, then i jet
back to the lab ...without a mic to grab
so then i add all the rhymes i had
one after the another one, then i make another one
to dis the opposite then ask if the brotherand's done
i get a craving like i fiend for nicotine
but i donand't need a cigarette, know what i mean?
iand'm raging, ripping up the stage and
donand't it sound amazing and'cause every rhyme is made and
thought of, cuz itand's sort of...an addiction,
magnatized by the mixing
E-f-f-e-c-t
a smooth operator operating correctly. (x4)
But back to the problem, i gotta habit,
you canand't solve it, you silly rabbit
the prescription is a hypertone thatand's thorough when
i fiend for a microphone like heroin
soon as the bass kicks, i need a fix
gimme a stage and a mic and a mix
and iand'll put you in a mood or is it a state of
unawareness? beware, itand's the reanamator!
a menace to a microphone, a lethal weapon
an assasinator, if the people ainand't stepping
you see a part of me that you never seen
when iand'm fiending for a microphone.
cause i take it to the maximum, i canand't relax see, iand'm
hype as a hyperchrondriac and'cause the rap be one
hell of a antidote, something you canand't smoke
more than dope, youand're trying to move away but you canand't, youand're broke
more than cracked up, you should have backed up
for those who act up need to be more than smacked up
