Yo 
Watch as the room rocks 
Mentally moon walk 
Mixed media slang 
Banging in your boom box 
Verbal violence 
Lyrical stylist 
In a time when rock hip hop rhymes are childish 
You can't tempt me with rhymes that are empty 
Rapping to a beat doesn't make you an emcee 
With your lack of skill and facility 
You're killing me 
And a DJ in the group just for credibility 
I heard that some of you are getting help with your rhymes 
You're not an emcee if someone else writes your lines 
Rapping over rock doesn't make you a pioneer 
Cause rock and hip hop have collaborated for years 
But now they're getting randomly mixed and matched up 
All after a fast buck and all the tracks suck 
So how does it stack up 
None of it's real 
You want to be an emcee you've got to study the skill 

Who can rock a rhyme like this 
Bring it to you every time like this 
Who can rock a rhyme like this 
Step, step up, step, step up 

So you pick up a pen and write yourself a new identity 
But mentally you don't have the hip hop energy 
With a tendency to make up stories 
Sounding like the only hip hop you've heard is top 40 (top 40) 
And your [bad word] is completely missing it 
All the kids are dissing it for not being legitimate 
So in a battle you can't hack it 
React with whack [bad word] 
And get smacked with verbal back flips 
Get your [bad word] kicked by fabulous battle catalysts 
It's taken decades for emcees to establish this 
You're new to hip hop and [bad word] if your serious 
But not on the mic 
Leave that to the experienced 

Using the waves of sound the [bad word] master 
Paralyzes his opponents, leaving him vulnerable to attack 

Who can rock a rhyme like this 
Bring it to you every time like this 
Who can rock a rhyme like this 
Step, step up, step, step up 

Who can rock a rhyme like this 
Bring it to you every time like this 
Who can rock a rhyme like this 
Step, step up, step, step up, step up 

After years of pain staking research by the world's 
Leading sound scientists, we here at the sound 
Institute have invented a reliable audio weapons system. 
Actual movement of musical sound in space used to 
Carefully attack and neutralize the cellular [bad word] of
The human body, so the question must be asked. 

Who can rock a rhyme like this 
Bring it to you every time like this 
Who can rock a rhyme like this 
Step, step up ,step, step up 

Who can rock a rhyme like this 
Bring it to you every time like this 
Who can rock a rhyme like this 
Step, step up, step, step up, Step up!
