(1st verse) If I lay low and let the day go
it'll slow my payroll Aye-yo I'm a terrorize
charge and slay shows Ra slay flows go as far
as the Barbados On the turntable sound like
tornadoes My style is performed like tropical
storms Your not to get on the whole spot will
get torn I keep the metropolitan hollering and
bring the dollars in Keep the models following
wise as King Solomon Come slow through the
jungle like an animal Invade any land I go
like General Hannibal From Long Island to
Queens light up the New York scenes All the
way to New Orleans and everything in
between Left to go bless a show in
Mexico Next Thing I know it's extra cold I see
Eskimo's Time to rock get it hot soon as I get
in there Spit in they ear so flow they froze
and I disappear
(Chorus)(2x) It's a
must that I bust any mic that you hand to
me It's inherited it runs in the
family
(2nd verse) They said I was a
head of my time or either here before To see
the idea clear it takes a year or more Now
times that by the years I reign
straight-seven No hear for four years still
multiplied by eleven The silence's a set back
make em regret that One way to get back is
violence and wet cats But hold your head black
or I'll never rap again Just when I thought I
was out they pulled me back in Now that was
two years ago and if cats start
interfering Then I'm a go back to the gat and
racketeering My sabotage is camaflouge and
espionage You ain't havin Ra so don't test the
god I'm takin' all orders I can't afford
extorters I hit em in the head with a hundred
dollars in quarters So warn a friend tell em
it's on again If it's a freestyle bust in a
park I want in
(Chorus)(2x) It's a must
that I bust any mic that you hand to me It's
inherited it runs in the family
(3rd
verse) I managed to get paid for a decade now
add three years on to that Perform with a
knack yes I was born to rap The mic Lebanon
Teflon don is back I strike with better bombs
and armed to attack So reload the van go ahead
let em in Every tours a war and I'm on the
road again Suprise a town the place it's live
and loud We vibin' now I go wild and dive in
the crowd Never hit the ground they catch me
and carry me around Then put me right back on
stage to shut it down From New York to Cali,
Japan and I-tali I'm known as the microphone
Muhammad Ali I'm worldwide my brothers be
biggin' me up Keep the girls occupied lovin'
diggin' me what Ain't around when I come to
town they mad glad Like Saddaam they even say
I'm the bomb in
Baghdad
(Chorus)(4x) It's a must that I
bust any mic that you hand to me It's
inherited it runs in the family
