[LL Cool J]
Check this
I excel, they fell, I said - well, hell
L can yell or make em melt like gel
I signed the contracts that buils up stacks
Play the wall or fall I stand tall you´re small in fact
step aside, you might get fried
by the super technique that the rapper applied
As a matter of fact, the impact will distract
your attention away, from the rest who say
they can mess with Cool J the best of to-day
and best cause the rhymes are so funky fresh
I´ma attack smack and make em stand back
Black strong as cognac I got the knack
to rhyme to the rhythm of this, and give em a gift
that´s swift, other rappers are stiff and don´t riff with
Mr. Smith, cause that ain´t safe
I get you wide open like an uncut eighth
I write to fight, don´t bite, to reach heights
The mic makes right, give me the spotlight
so I can prove the pen is mightier than the sword
LL hard as hell, the lyrical lord
The counterfeit misfits that rap had to admit that
my rhymes are so dangerous, I need a permit to rap
solo, on the microphone
MC´s -- don´t let me catch you alone
I´m nitro!
Yo, I got the kick of a kettle drum, guaranteed to overcome
You´re just a minimum, messin with the maximum
And when I swung my tongue among the high strung
young MC´s, they all got done by the legend
Every second I´m wreckin
not a mistake you´ll find, but you can keep checkin
out the sound you´ll find that it´s genuine
Bet that you´ll rewind this a thousand times
You can taste the bass like it´s filet-of-sole
I leave the microphone full of bullet holes
I drop the bomb like I´m in ´Nam and go beyond
the normal boundaries of too much harm
to MC´s, but as they say please I freeze
Rhymes like these kill like a disease
Tried to fill my shoes, and caught the blues
because they get bruised by the rhymes I choose
I kill rappers at random, I don´t understand em
The ones I didn´t get, are on a memorandum
Lines I recite are spontaneous
The nursery rhymes you write, are miscellaneous
So pass the crown, bow down and give in
I´m the Prince of Rap, that´s how we livin
Settin milestones on the microphone
Empires are overthrown, and I ain´t even baritone
No joke I spoke then God stroke
as Job tried to sweat the style and got soaked
Conquered and killed on the microphone
MC´s -- don´t let me catch you alone
LL´s nitro!
Nitro!
Yo, flammable -- like gasoline
Threatening -- like a guillotine
It´s like a bad dream when you battle my team
I go to every extreme to make MC´s scream
I´m clever, I last forever, we can do whatever
with whoever, whenever, I never
ever got rocked, stopped or dropped
They got popped, by the hip-hop rock that I concoct
I´m so nice yo, flowin with the maestro
Murderin and hurtin MC´s because I´m nitro
The earthquakes´ll kill snakes and fakes
You can´t flake, you made a mistake, give me a break, thanks
Now that we´re straight and that´s clear
watch all the big mouths - dissapear
Disintergrate, deteriorate, fall
I demonstrate, and devestate you all
There´s no doubt about the fact I turn it out, the wack
be on the lookout, LL made a comeback
Full of power, I´ma devour
I stand tall as a tower, I won´t allow a
MC to C-O-M-E, C-L-O-S-E
Play me long D-I-S-T-A-N-C-E, M-C´s
On the microphone, I´m nitro!
Nitro!
Yo (funky)
I daze amaze faze blaze and beat em down
Nowadays they crave and praise, the funky sound I pound
Rhymes I write em in, recite em and then slide em in
Order to slaughter comp that start soon as I begin
Total domination, across the nation
Devestation, cut sensation, it´s the invasion
of L the Terrible, devestating rhymin wiz
I cut through through do and chew, you know what time it is
Slick, I get off of kicks, vick your flick
Hard as bricks, rock ya sick over the mix
The L, L, C, O, O -- L J Period now you know bro!
N-I-T-R-O yo go for what you know
unless you´re dumb cause yo I´m nitro-glycerin
listenin and takin notes
Icin enticin and slicin throats
