Lyric Ain t No Half-Steppin
<ah yeah
I m with this
I m just gonna sit here laid back to this nice mellow beat, you know
And drop some smooth lyrics
Cause it s 88
Time to set it straight, knowwhatI msaying
And ain t no half stepping
Word
I m ready>
Rappers stepping to me they want to get some
But I m the Kane, so yo, you know the outcome
Another victory
They can t get with me
So pick a BC date cause you re history
I m the authentic poet to get lyrical
For you to beat me, it s gonna take a miracle
And, stepping to me, yo that s the wrong move
So what you on, Hobbs, dope or dog food?
Competition I just devour
Like a pitbull against a Chihuahua
Cause when it comes to being dope, hot damn
I got it good, now let me tell you who I am
The B-I-G D-A-double D-Y K-A-N-E
Dramatic, Asiatic, not like many
I m different, so don t compare me to another
Cause they can t hang, word to the mother
At least not with the principal in this pedigree
So when I roll on you rappers, you better be
Ready to die because you re petty
You re just a butter knife, I m a machete
That s made by Ginzu, wait until when you
Try to front, so I can chop into
Your body, just because you try to be basing
Friday the 13th, I mma play Jason
No type of joke, gag, game, puzzle or riddle
The name is Big Daddy, yes Big not little
So define it
Here s your walking papers, sign it
And take a walk
As the Kane start to talk, cause...
<Break>
Ain t no half-steppin
<scratched> I m the Big Daddy Kane
(3 times)
My rhymes are so dope and
The rappers be hoping
To sound like me, so soon I ll have to open
A school of MCing, for those who want to be in
My field in court
Then again on second thought
To have MC s coming out sounding so similar
It s quite confusing for you to remember
The originator, and boy do I hate a
Perpetrator, but I m much greater
The best oh yes I guess suggest the rest should fess
Don t mess or test your highness
Unless you just address with best finesse
And bless the paragraph I manifest
Rap prime minister, some say sinister
Non-stopping the groove, until when it s the
Climax, and I max, relax and chill
Have a break from a take of me acting ill
Brain cells are lit, ideas start to hit
Next the formation of words that fit
At the table I sit, making it legit
And when my pen hits the paper, ahh shit!
I stop and stand strong over MC s
And devour with the power of Hercules
Or Samson, but I go further the length
Cause you could scalp my cameo and I ll still have strength
And no, that s not a myth, and if you try to riff
Or get with, the man with the given gift of gab
Your vocab, I ll only ignore
Be sleeping on your rhymes till I start to snore
You can t awake me, or even make me
Fear you, son, cause you can t do me none
So, think about it if you re trying to go
When you want to step to me, I think you should know that...
<Break>
Ain t no half-steppin
<scratched> I m the Big Daddy Kane
(3 times)
I appear right here and scare and dare
A mere musketeer that would dare to compare
Put him in the rear, back there where he can t see clear
Get a beer, idea or near stare, yeah
So on to be want to be competition
Trying to step to me--must be on a mission
Up on the stage is where I mma get you at
You think I m losing?
Psst, picture that...
<Break>
Ain t no half-steppin
(3 times)
Mister Cee, step to me...
The name is Big Daddy, you know, as in your father
So when you hear a def rhyme, believe that I m the author
I grab the mic and make MC s evaporate
The party people say, damn...that rapper s great
The creator conductor of poetry
Et cetera, et cetera, it ain t easy being me
I speak clearly so you can understand
Put words together like letter, man
Now that s dictation, proceeding to my innovation
Not like the other MC s, who are an imitation
Or an animation, a cartoon to me
But when I m finished, I m sure that you are soon to see
Reality, my secret technique
Because I always speak with mentality
I put my title in your face, dare you to base
And if you try and come get it, yo I mma show you who s with it
So if you know like I know, instead of messing around
Play like Roy Rogers and slooow doown
Just give yourself a break, or someone else will take
Your title, namely me, cause I m homicidal
That means murder, cause I m about to hurt a-
Nother MC, that try to get with me
I ll just break him and bake him and rake him
and take him and mold him and make him
Hold up the peace sign...
Assalam Walaikum!
