[Minister Farrakhan]



So Out Of The MERCY Of Allah



And The LAW, Written In Our Nature



We Call An INDIVIDUAL, Into Existence



And When That Individual, I Make, NO Apologies



For What I'm About To Say




[Big Daddy Kane]



Rough, Rugged And Real, You're On Standstill



To Obey Okay So Let The Man Build



Words Of Rapture That You Have To Capture



And I Just Slapped Ya



With The Hand Full Of Literature



That's Dope Def Fresh Hype Choice Smooth And Raw



Rappers I Replace, Rub Out, And Erase



Competition You Must Be On Freebase



Smokin Or Chokin, Bound To Be Broken



Man, Get Your Damn Hands Off The Mic That I'm Chokin!



Cause I Got A Strangehold



You're Still Cold Off The Road For The Role You Stole



Rhymes That You Yell Out, But You Did Sell Out



Crossed-over, Lost Over Here, Now Get The Hell Out



I'm Not A Pop Star, Rock'n'roller



I'm A Rebel, BLESSED, Able To Hold A



Mic Like A Hammer, And Drop Grammar



Treat A Rapper Like A Wrestler, And Body Slam Him



Those Who Dispute Get Treated Just Like A Prostitute



They Get The Boot And Played Like A Flute



So Just PLAY Mute, Don't Even Whisper



Open Your Mouth To Speak And I'm Diss Ya



Ragtag And Dog, Put You In The Morgue



Because You're Petty Confetti And Not Ready To Rock Steady



In Other Words, You're Half-steppin'



Tiptoein, Get Goin, Because My Weapon



Is Not A Nine, An Uzi Or A Shotgun



But When It Come To Hype Rhymes I Got One



Just Like The Album Is Still The Same



_Long Live The Kane_ Ain't A Damn Thing Changed



I Still Get Ill And Kill At Will And Build The Skill



To Fill Your Grill So Don't Tell Me You're Real



We Sample Beats, You Sue And Try To Figh
