Lyric I Keep the Crowd Listening
Attention (Ladies and gentlemen) We have Lord Finesse (Yeah, it s
him again. Why don t you get the place pumping, come on, say a
little something!)
Alright, let me kick this fly intro
Somethin that s smooth but quite simple
This is my type of groove, so don t make plans
I don t care if you hop skip or breakdance
Don t worry cause you ll get your chance yet
To get funky and kick the fly dancesteps
At a show I try to maintain discipline
I keep you moving, but also listenin
"Everyone is moving, but eager to listen" - Cut and scratched 2x
Think I m funky? I ll be funkier tomorrow
Yo, I m one tough act to follow
Rip up mics when it s time to throw down
Make MC s say: "I don t even wanna go now"
All I need is a mic and a hype groove
Two dancers and my DJ Mike Smooth
To spin the wheels and make you shake your body
I kick a party like I know karate
Better yet like I was kickin a volleyball
I step on stage get raw, then I m outty, y all
Here we go now, so just stand back
I take a ho, a cheer, or a handclap
Get raw off the same drum while MC s remain dumb
Don t worry cause there s more where that came from
I m not the type of brother to kick a small rap
Get swift and make a hit and think I m all that
Cause I elevate, make the fellas break
I drink a 40, lay back, and just celebrate
Shoot and flip the rhymes because I m swift and wise
Lord Finesse will keep the crowd hypnotized
"Everyone is moving, but eager to listen" - Cut and scratched 2x
I m the Technician a.k.a. the rhyme arranger
Have old folks saying "Who was that stranger?"
It s Lord Finesse, so don t forget to tell em that
Pass me a mic and roll down the welcome mat
I don t front when it s time to kick a rhyme or two
I get raw and show the crowd what I could do
And steal a show before others have a chance to
By givin party people somethin funky to dance to
Kickin the lyrics and let the beat get them
Man, I sound groovy even on a weak system
I warm up the scene like a bottle of brandy
And if that fails, then I just go to Plan B
But once I start there s no need to slow down
As soon as I say "One two, here we go now"
Rhymes I say structure and analyze
Then say to myself downlow "Goddamn, I m fly"
Rhymes ll stay when I m gone like a fossile
I m livin large, stupenous, collossal
Me and Mike Smooth, we re so magnificient
We keep the crowd movin, but also listenin
