Rakim - Guess Who's Back lyrics

[Intro] Yeah, yeah Once again, back is the incredible [Verse 1] It's the return of the Wild Style fashionist Smashin' hits, make it hard to adapt to this Put pizzazz and jazz in this, and cash in this Mastered this, flash this and make 'em clap to this DJ's throw on cuts and obey the crowd Just pump the volume up, and play it loud Hip-hop's embedded, before I said I wouldn't let it But me and the microphone is still magnetic Straight off the top, I knew I'd be forced to rock Dancefloors just stop, the spot's scorchin' hot Hopin' I open Rakim Allah seminars Ma**age at the bar smokin' ten dollar cigars While I admire midas, with more vision than TV's I find it easy catchin' diabetes from fly sweeties Sit back and wait to hear a slammin' track Rockin' jams by popular demand, I'm back [Hook] I control the crowd, you know I hold it down When it drop, you know it's jiggy When you hear the sound From town to town, until it's world renowned And I rock New York City all year around [Verse 2] It's on, so you can swerve when it's heard in clubs Thought patterns displayed on Persian rugs Equations are drawn up in paisley form Mic, it stay warm, my flow is Evian Deep as a Nautilus, you stay dipped in Ra's style From the shores of Long Island to Panama Can*l Intellect pitches, new trends, like a clothes designer I'm in effect, quicker than medicines in China Split the mic open, fill it with somethin' potent to go in And take a toke then, mental planes start floatin' Hot science is smokin', altitudes cause chokin' Product is hypnotic, you're soakin' and still smokin' Showin' better scenes than grams of amphetamines Plans to scheme, means I'll forever fiend Long as the mic is loud and the volume is pumpin' I'ma move crowds to 2000-somethin' [Hook] I control the crowd, you know I hold it down When it drop, you know it's jiggy When you hear the sound From town to town, until it's world renowned And I rock New York City all year around [Verse 3] Yo, my rhymes and lyrics find spirits like a seance Since fat crayons, I write and display chaos My plan is damage, the diagram to where the jam is I take advantage, until the crowd go bananas What a rush! I hear cuts, then I lust to touch Microphones get clutched by the illustrious Word spread I inherited, many ways to say the unsaid Born with three 7's in my head In time no one can seem to blow your mind as far as this To find you'll need philosophers and anthropologists Astrologists, professors from your smartest colleges With knowledge of scholarships, when Ra be droppin' this Some of the things that I know will be in your next bible When I die, go bury me and my notebook in Cairo With the great God from Egypt, manifest was write rhymes Align with the stars, I come back to bless the mic [Hook] I control the crowd, you know I hold it down When it drop, you know it's jiggy When you hear the sound From town to town, until it's world renowned And I rock New York City all year around I control the crowd, you know I hold it down When it drop, you know it's jiggy When you hear the sound From town to town, until it's world renowned And I rock New York City all year around [Outro] Once again, back is the incredible Word up, Rakim Allah the Microphone Fiend is back Yaknahmean?
