Eric Marienthal - Times Square lyrics

Make 'em clap to this To show our appreciation for your support Make 'em clap to this Thank you DJ's Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this I came in the door, I said it before I never let the mic magnetize me no more But it's biting me, fighting me, inviting me to rhyme I can't hold it back I'm looking for the line Taking off my coat clearing my throat The rhyme will be kicking it until I hit my last note My mind'll range to find all kinds of ideas Self esteem makes it seem like a thought took years to build But still say a rhyme after the next one Prepared, never scared, I'll just bless one And you know that I'm the soloist So Eric B, make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this I don't bug out or chill or be acting ill No tricks in '86, it's time to build Eric B easy on the cut, no mistakes allowed 'Cause to me, MC means move the crowd I made it easy to dance to this But can you detect what's coming next from the flex of the wrist? Saying indeed then I precede 'cause my man made a mix If he bleed he won't need no Band-Aid to fix If they can get some around until there's no rhymes left I hurry up because the cut will make 'em bleed to d**h He's kicking it because it ain't no half stepping The party is live, the rhyme can't be kept inside It needs erupting just like a volcano It ain't the everyday style of the same old rhyme Because I'm better than the rest of them Eric B is on the cut and my name is Rakim Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap Go get a girl and get soft and warm Don't get excited, you've been invited to a quiet storm But now it's out of hand 'cause you told me you hate me And then you ask what have I done lately First you said, "All you want is love and affection" Let me be your angel and I'll be your protection Take you out, buy you all kinds of things Make 'em clap to this You caught an attitude, you need food to eat up I'm scheming like I'm dreaming on a couch on my feet up You scream I'm lazy, you must be crazy Thought I was a donut, you tried to glaze me Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this I made it easy to dance to this But can you detect what's coming next from the flex of the wrist? Saying indeed then I precede 'cause my man made a mix If he bleed he won't need no Band-Aid to fix Eric B is on the cut and my name is Rakim, nasty Make 'em clap to this Drop your hands, drop your hands Drop your hands to what he's doin' Drop your hands to what he's doin' Drop your hands, drop your hands Drop your hands, drop your hands Drop your hands to what he's doin' Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this Make 'em clap to this
