ERIC B. & RAKIM - Musical Massacre lyrics

rate me

How could I keep my composure

When all sorts of thoughts fought for exposure?

Releasethen veins in the brains increase

When I let offmake a wish and blow the smoke off my piece

Unloadinunfold and the rhymes are explodin

And the mic that I'm holdin's golden

Cordless cause the wire caught fire like a fuse

Gunpowder and the slightest bruise is a friction

The outcome is there so listen

Here's the brief description

A boom then flame then smokeashes a dust to dust

Contact is compact when I bust

Mc's are now in a massacre

A disaster a... master at fashion a beat to death

To a pulptill it can't pump

Speakers ain't sayin nothin

Now the ball can thump

As I'm lookin' I stand like great buildings in brooklyn

Then the stage is took then

Havoc struck that could product a whole court

Keep in touch with the mic when you're holdin y'all

Sumpin and pumpin and slobbin and droolin

Nothin's pumpinwho do you think ya foolin?

Tommy tuckerthe neighborhood sucker

What you oughtta do.... is pick up a tempo

From what I inventso hard not to bitebut you can't prevent so

You start to kidnap

I watch the kid rap

When he get off he know he shouldn't a did that

Minorold-timerweak-rhymerstay-in-liner

You won't be inclined to go so yo

Maybe lateryou're gonna be

But for nowyou're almost one of me

Now the immature imitations taken from originations

Made by tracin and a little arrangin

So performif ya still ain't warm maybe after

A roast by the host with the most it's a musical massacre

Never tireddon't even try itkeep quiet

Like a stormyou could rain...but a riot

Remainsthe gangs power just like the towerin inferno

The beat's gonna burn so

Distance I keptou better watch your step

Volunteers go from here and get

Ya out of the flames

Appreciate the temperature change

Anywhere within the range of celcius

Fahrenheit on the micmic melts see it

Burns soon as it's felt see it's torchinscorchin

Mic's pipin hotsteamin who's schemin now ya not

James brown must a been dusted

Disgustednow he can't be trusted

Embalmed with fluid

Static can cause an explosionin fact impact's closin in

Time was upso I don't need a time bomb

Beat gives me a heat-stroke when I rhyme calm

Pull out the toolsometimes I wanna break fool

But I was coollike one in the chamber

Lets play a game of rhymin roulette

And put me up to your brain and name a rhyme about ya clout

One mistake... ya out

If this imitation it can't be the same show

Maybe what you'll find somewhere over the rainbow

Courageheartbrainyou need rhyme

Turn on your micsnap your fingers three times

We goneor the story won't end the same

And you'll feel the flame

The potion was weakmake another antidote

Whats the science? why can't ya quote?

Elements for musical intelligence

Rhymes are irrelevantno development

And that settles it

Go manufacture a matchsend me after a blast

From the master that has to make musical massacre
