[Verse 1]
I came to set 'em straight, and let 'em know
Whoever's holdin' the best, just let him go
'Cause here's the inside scoop on the fiend
They wanna know why I'm seldom seen
'Cause who needs the TV screens and magazines
Or shootin' through the city in fly limousines
There's one thing I don't like, it's the spotlight
'Cause I already got light
They be like, yo, we had a get together last week
And we know everyone was there except the Black Sheep
Because my schedule is tight, I gotta write
I'm deep in the archives, and keeping 'em hyped
It's been a long time, since you heard a strong rhyme
None of these are weak so when you bite on mine
We can trace the hits and then name that style
MCs'll be out of a job for a while
I re-posess your identification
So, hand in your application
Put your mic on strike until you're unemployed
Contract is up and I'm stampin' it void
Your selection ain't this selective
So I'ma put you in your proper perspective
On the dance-floor, and doin' the shake
Ready to let 'em brake, set 'em straight
I came to set 'em straight, and let 'em know
Whoever's holdin' the best, just let him go
'Cause here's the inside scoop on the fiend
They wanna know why I'm seldom seen
'Cause who needs the TV screens and magazines
Or shootin' through the city in fly limousines
There's one thing I don't like, it's the spotlight
'Cause I already got light
They be like, yo, we had a get together last week
And we know everyone was there except the Black Sheep
Because my schedule is tight, I gotta write
I'm deep in the archives, and keeping 'em hyped
It's been a long time, since you heard a strong rhyme
None of these are weak so when you bite on mine
We can trace the hits and then name that style
MCs'll be out of a job for a while
I re-posess your identification
So, hand in your application
Put your mic on strike until you're unemployed
Contract is up and I'm stampin' it void
Your selection ain't this selective
So I'ma put you in your proper perspective
On the dance-floor, and doin' the shake
Ready to let 'em brake, set 'em straight
