Young MC - Pick Up The Pace (1990) lyrics

I'm shovin' off like an ocean liner No one can rock the microphone finer East, west, north, South Carolina Alex and Vivian chillin' at Mel's Diner Off to China 'cause I got a show there Get my pa**port, then I'm gonna go there Who do I know there? I guess no one But I will have fun and I get the job done On the airplane, movin' like the Concord Come and join me, everybody on board You won't be bored with the stuff I'm pickin' up Watch me quicken up and with the pace, I pick it up Pick up the pace [Chorus] Second verse and never cursin' Rockin' the microphone with the style that I'm reherasin' In person, that means liver Swimmin' and slimmin' just like a deep sea diver I'll arrive, uh, just to go faster Grab the microphone and show that I am the master Of disaster, cookin' up a potion With the funky rhymes to put the people into motion Of the ocean, movin' like the water Here's the menu, go place your order It's a slaughter, a felony of chatter And pickin' up the pace is the subject matter [Chorus] Break it down Oh yes, I pick up the pace Take a look at the crowd and take a look at my face Listen to my rhyme and listen to them yell It's like a man in jail gettin' out of the cell I don't why they go by Weak names and swear that they're so fly They gotta try it again to rock the mic my friend Go from A to Z and from beginning to end Now I could go slower, like the other guys do But I ain't with it, that's what I'm tellin' you I think it's kind of stupid, I think it's a disgrace Instead of going slow they should be pickin' up the pace Like this Rock and roller Coca Cola Hot like soda Rollin' like a boulder Dancin', prancin', mic enhancin' Just give me a chance, and girls, I'm romancin' Understand it, underhanded Leavin' you stranded, runnin' like a bandit Yo, young money, in my hands you're putty I'm pickin' up the pace and rockin' the mic Yeah, buddy [Chorus] Pick up the pace
