Rakim - It's a Must lyrics

rate me

(1st verse)

If I lay low and let the day go it'll slow my payroll

Aye-yo I'm a terrorize charge and slay shows

Ra slay flows go as far as the barbados

On the turntable sound like tornadoes

My style is performed like tropical storms

Your not to get on the whole spot will get torn

I keep the metropolitan hollering and bring the dollars in

Keep the models following wise as king solomon

Come slow through the jungle like an animal

Invade any land I go like general hannibal

From long island to queens light up the new york scenes

All the way to new orleans and everything in between

Left to go bless a show in mexico

Next thing I know it's extra cold I see eskimo's

Time to rock get it hot soon as I get in there

Spit in they ear so flow they froze and I disappear

(chorus)(2x)

It's a must that I bust any mic that you hand to me

It's inherited it runs in the family

(2nd verse)

They said I was a head of my time or either here before

To see the idea clear it takes a year or more

Now times that by the years I reign straight-seven

No hear for four years still multiplied by eleven

The silence's a set back make em regret that

One way to get back is violence and wet cats

But hold your head black or I'll never rap again

Just when I thought I was out they pulled me back in

Now that was two years ago and if cats start interfering

Then I'm a go back to the gat and racketeering

My sabotage is camaflouge and espionage

You ain't havin ra so don't test the god

I'm takin' all orders I can't afford extorters

I hit em in the head with a hundred dollars in quarters

So warn a friend tell em it's on again

If it's a freestyle bust in a park I want in

(chorus)(2x)

It's a must that I bust any mic that you hand to me

It's inherited it runs in the family

(3rd verse)

I managed to get paid for a decade now add three years on to that

Perform with a knack yes I was born to rap

The mic lebanon teflon don is back

I strike with better bombs and armed to attack

So reload the van go ahead let em in

Every tours a war and I'm on the road again

Suprise a town the place it's live and loud

We vibin' now I go wild and dive in the crowd

Never hit the ground they catch me and carry me around

Then put me right back on stage to shut it down

From new york to calijapan and i-tali

I'm known as the microphone muhammad ali

I'm worldwide my brothers be biggin' me up

Keep the girls occupied lovin' diggin' me what

Ain't around when I come to town they mad glad

Like saddaam they even say I'm the bomb in baghdad

(chorus)(4x)

It's a must that I bust any mic that you hand to me

It's inherited it runs in the family
