Rakim - How To Emcee lyrics

Look what yall made me do Chorus: This is your koran or bible To be a true emcee icon or idol The contents you put in your songs are vital Like training for the ufc you want a title Slam thoughts on a canvas flip em and pin em metaphors and similes and synonyms in em Spit heat around the town the more you get it heard till you spit at 2000 miles before it hit a curve Then flood your rhymes and your rap pages word play punch lines and catch phrases Heat sports with players and ballers new game street talk straight off the corners new slang I got heat for crowds for those that pursuit it Spitters i show you flow till your vocals are through it I m showing you freestyle just focus into it If you a gee ill show you how to cope when you do it Chorus: Forever sick like catching aids is In a cla** of greatness for magic phrases My predicates last for pages every letter fit trend setter like fashion statements My quotes get a shrine in the hood forever I wrote some of the illest rhymes ever put together Soon as i make em rappers take em an*lyze em for days and para phrase em Im back hip hoppers I back my scripts and documents Raps hit the block its a wrap its the apocalypse The hood give my rap flow names like nine eleven and crack c**aine I hit the building it gets hotter in em Its like birds most rappers dont know how to flip em I got hip em get hop and show em how to spit em i bust a rhyme then i school em for for free i scholarship em Chorur:song the competition know the deal your not ready now Because your dealing with the R know how its going down this is it your so sick with your sk**s your flow goes right in you can k** rap Its hard since you can flip it isnt it bars its infinite so ra deliver it far different Hard lyric and part instruments start spitting the articulate yall rhythms get Till every syllable you drop is pivotal Its not original its not as memorable Ill lyrical till hes so popular they sick of you Pandemic a threat level five its critical k** em off with a word like euthanasia Till it spread to the youth in asia In the booth im major my music monumental im a mogul You gonna make sense im gonna show you You got to put the life in them lines make the deaf hear sight to the make your flow tighter brighter design So if the mic is your grind then biting s a crime especially if a ghost writers writing your rhymes.
