Pass the mic

If you can feel what I´m feeling then it´s a musical masterpiece
But if you can hear what I´m dealing with then that´s cool at least
What´s running through my mind comes through in my walk
True feelings are shown from the way that I talk
And this is me, y´all-I M.C.,
Y´all my name is M.C.A. and I still do what I please
And now I´d like to introduce
I´ll pass the mic to D. for a fist full of truth
The name is D., y´all and I don´t play
And I can rock a block party ´til your hair turns grey
"So what you sayin?" I explode on site
And like Jimmy Walker I´m "Dynomite"
And now I´d like to pass the mic
So Adrock c´mon and do anything you like
I´m the A.D.R.O.C.K.
In the place with the bass I´m going all the way
I can´t stop y´all tock tick y´all
And if you think that you´re slick you´ll catch a brick y´all
´Cause I´m a turn it in and I´m a turn it out
But now I´ve got to pass the mic to Yauch
Well on and on and on and on
I can´t stop y´all ´til the early morn´
So rock y´all tick tock y´all to the beat y´all
C´mon and rock y´all
I give thanks for inspiration
It guides my mind along the way
A lot of people get jealous, they´re talking about me
But that´s just ´cause they haven´t got a thing to say
Everybody´s rappin´ like it´s a commercial
Acting like life is a big commercial
So this is what I´ve got to say to you all
Be true to yourself and you will never fall
And now I´d like to pass the mic to the A
So what´s your name, Yauch? My name is M.C.A.
I´ve been coming to where I am, from the get go
Find that I can groove with the beat when I let go
So put your worries on hold
Get up and groove with the rhythm in your soul
And now I´d like to pass the mic to my brother Adrock
C´mon and shine like a light
Yes yes y´all and yes yes y´all
I´m always on time never the less y´all
And that´s right y´all, I shed light y´all
I´ve got no time in my life to get uptight y´all
So what you gonna say that I don´t know already?
I´m like Clyde and I´m rockin´ steady
But time flies when you´re having fun
So Mike D. c´mon and get some
M.I.K.E. to the D.
You come and see me and you pay a fee
Do what I do professionally
To tell the truth I am exactly what I want to be
Now Ad-Rock and M.C.A.
Let´s rock this joint in the old school way
Well I´m on ´til the crack of dawn
Mowing down M.C.´s like I´m mowing a lawn
I go off like nothing can phase me
You think we´ll ever meet Stevie? One of these days, D.
But I can stand my ground and I am down
To wax an M.C. who acts like a clown
But for now, I´d like to ask you how
You like the feel of the bass in your face in the crowd
But if you can hear what I´m dealing with then that´s cool at least
What´s running through my mind comes through in my walk
True feelings are shown from the way that I talk
And this is me, y´all-I M.C.,
Y´all my name is M.C.A. and I still do what I please
And now I´d like to introduce
