From now on it's not MC Lyte
Listen up everybody, it's Lyte Thee MC
Tackling anyone who tries to stop me
From fulfilling the ultimate, the ultimate goal
Suckers taking up room on the microphone
I do not favor crowds, move over, stop smothering me
I feel like I'm drowning and fans are just stomping me
Bigfoot, chill before I run civilized
You're not so tame, I don't mean to criticize
But light and sweat, we don't go together
Especially in the muggy and the rainy kind of weather
Listen up everybody, it's Lyte Thee MC
Listen up everybo— Listen up everybo
Listen up everybody, it's Lyte Thee MC
Competition, I take it, is good for the soul
Pull back the microphone, let my arms unfold
Release all the anger, all the aggravation
Convert it into words, just sort of like a conversation
I am the talker, you're just a listener
Talk and I'll ignore you, isn't that a pissing scene?
'Cause the problem is you can't understand
The logic in my rap you can't comprehend
So you merely step aside, what gall, and call me weak
But you also step aside when I'm coming down the street
You give me lots of room to whistle and walk
And then everything is silent just in case I want to talk
But I, I never do small talk
I like to hear other girls rap and you saying I'm wack
Coming from a female that is totally dedicated
Every rhyme I say you ought to appreciate it
And if not, I'll tell you like I told my neighbor named Betty
You ain't ready
For a fly female emcee you just ain't ready
Listen up everybo— Listen up everybody
Listen up everybody, it's Lyte Thee MC
Listen up everybody, it's Lyte Thee MC
Competition, I take it, is food for the mind
Past experience from the future is the best kind of advice
That you could ever receive from another
Whether it's a stranger or your nighttime lover
Sorry, silly rabbits, Trix are for kids
Brings back memories of the things I did
Played jokes on suckers just for fun
But now I'm much older, those days are done
Everything is business, forget about games
You see, 'cause once I'm finished you're gonna know my name
It's Lyte, and in Brooklyn, Brooklyn's where I'm chilling
Better known as the MC Villain
No, I'm not good, but I'm not bad either
Coming to you live, you can't get no liver
Listen up everybody— Listen up everybody
Listen up everybody, it's Lyte Thee MC
So now competition is taken out of my vocabulary
I don't worry, I bury
Stepping up is like digging your grave
So sucker emcees, you ought to save
All the mess you be talking, meanwhile hawking
When I'm on the stage, audience watching
Suckers in the corner just keep on clocking
The way I hold the mic, the stance I use
The rhymes I recite and the beat I choose
But it's not your fault because you don't know better
You see the green I wear, you go buy the same sweater
You look me up and down, sight the jeans name brand
You go to Macy's and for hours you stand
On line just to buy what you saw Lyte wearing
Don't try to lie, homegirl, I caught you staring
'Cause yo, the beat is dope and the rhymes are kicking
I'm the chickenhawk and you are the chicken
Listen up everybody— Listen up everybody
Listen up everybody, it's Lyte Thee MC
Listen up everybody— Listen up everybody
Listen up everybody, it's Lyte Thee MC
Listen up everybody— Listen up— Listen up
Listen up everybody, it's Lyte Thee MC
L-L-Listen up everybody— Listen up everybody
Listen up everybody, it's Lyte Thee MC
L-L-Listen up everybody— Listen up— Listen up
Listen up everybody, it's Lyte Thee MC
Listen up every— L-L-Listen up everybody, it's Lyte Thee
Listen up— Listen up— Listen up
Listen up everybody— Listen up— L-L-L-L-Listen
