[Intro] Everybody move offstage Only one man, said only one man 'gon rock this mic (mic) Only one man, said only one man 'gon rock this mic tonight [Verse] As I'm cruising down the interstate the grooves are sent up my brain Recuperating groupie pain and minimal inertia It hurts me to admit I couldn't feel it in the air And when I penned this very sentence was the minute of the universe becoming self-aware When God created Man he left his pride on the shelf, and part of his self died And even Jesus Christ got it wrong the twelfth time
And more than money changes when the hands line up My emotions are the last in the green room Walking 'round Cleveland Black cat, Déjà vu What's gotten into me? Thug rap, blue pill, 'Pac, and the Trinity Holy flow, the truth, and the lies Until you've died, you don't know what alive is Until you're rich, you don't know what the price is But when you hear this, you gon' know what nice is [Outro] Everybody move offstage Only one man, said only one man 'gon rock this mic (mic) Only one man, said only one man 'gon rock this mic tonight
