Rappers stepped to me, but they didn't get none 
I'm the Kane so you know the outcome 
The microphone crooner, should have set the tone sooner 
Hip hop to me Re boxing to Roy Jones Jr. 

The genuine, search and you'll find 
That on the microphone I can handle mine 
Here's a view to a kill as I flipped the skill 
When it's time to rock the mic like Al Scratch I get ill 

I come equipped to fight and if I flip tonight 
Effects on MC's are similar to kryptonite 
Water flows that be hard to distinguish 
It's best to relinquish, you don't want the God to bring this 

I'm marvelous at the art of this, even if you got assist stepping to me is a lot of risk. 
I release skills that's abundant to explode and drop on you like flight 800 

[Chorus] 
Keep it moving world renown 
Showing and proving 
That we can hold it down 

Here's a percentage of that old vintage 
Macaroni flow but its mare than an image 
Don't let the smooth taste fool ya , Let me school ya 
On what it is, straight up square biz 

Swift maneuvering to crush the crew you bring 
Last thing them want tell me is Kane go do your thing who the king 
Asiatic non equivalent to any 
Plus I play the game a more harder way than Penny 

The plan that I mobilize for dough to rise is no surprise 
That it comes from what I vocalize 
I'm the best you can get as I hit you with 
The stroke of death And I ain't even broke a sweat 

But this is where I draw the. line you're sure to find 
Lyrics I be dropping is too much for the mortal mind 
What's being caused is many MC's I'm seeing lost 
The hip hop laws should be reinforced 

You made a record this year, Oh you're hot 
Something fishy about your style, who flow you got 
You thought that you could hold me down no you're not 
Now back up off me, here I come to blow the spot 

[Chorus]

Alright, here I come to get some 
But instead you don't want the love to spread 
I heard that jealousy and envy is a dumb one's tool 
So daddy says nothing he keeps his cool 

I been through your tribulations and conflicts 
Anything possible to keep me out the mix 
But ease back, boy you better freeze that 
Where my rivalries lack I'm still nice with these Black 

I rap with the safety cap so that you don't get it twisted 
And be another statistic 
How many more to try, is sure to die 
Slaughter I, all that player hating only makes me fortify 

To get the papers to me is a necessity 
And I don't want a piece of the pie I want the recipe 
I can't lose with what I use 
I'm the reason why the lady sings the blues 
Don't get it confused 

[Chorus]
