[00:21.120] I throw my tape on
[00:22.690] And I watch ya
[00:24.240] Three second later
[00:24.980] I got ya, shakin' your head
[00:27.310] Dancin' instead of sittin'
[00:28.510] The rhymes kick
[00:29.600] The beats hittin' you
[00:30.970] Just like a home run
[00:32.190] Slammin' like a slam dunk
[00:33.180] Riding the wave that James Brown gave funk
[00:35.530] It happened to James,like it happened to me
[00:37.360] How you think I feel to see another MC
[00:39.900] Gettin' paid , usin' my rap style
[00:42.580] And I'm playin' the background meanwhile
[00:44.660] I ain't with that
[00:45.940] You can forget that
[00:47.250] You took my style
[00:48.500] I'm takin' it back
[00:49.520] I'm come back like "Return of the Jedi"
[00:51.710] Sucker MC's in the place that said I
[00:53.720] Could only rock rhymes
[00:54.910] Only rock crowds
[00:56.280] But never rock records
[00:58.240] How ya like me now (x2)
[01:16.780] Now brothers are riding me
[01:18.290] Like a pony
[01:19.370] I'm no phony
[01:20.330] I'm the only real micaroni
[01:21.580] Playin' the mic like it's supposed to be played
[01:23.530] New jacks,you all shoulda stayed out of the business
[01:27.820] What is this,amateur night at the Apollo?
[01:30.280] Get off this stage,I'm in a rage
[01:32.240] I'm like a lion that's been trapped inside a cage
[01:35.340] I'm the real king , rap is a jungle
[01:37.800] I never understood,how could one go
[01:40.260] To a party,watch me,stand around and jock me
[01:42.140] Become a rapper,then try to rock me
[01:44.820] Scheming like a demon,you're screamin' and dreamin'
[01:46.820] I'm from the old school,I used to see men
[01:49.290] Dies for less,but I'm not living that way
[01:51.220] I'll let my mic do the talkin'
[01:52.620] And let the music play
[02:04.000] How ya like me now (x2)
[02:12.660] Rap is an art
[02:13.300] And I'm a Picasso
[02:14.760] But of course
[02:15.680] Why else would you try so
[02:17.800] Hard to paint a picture, and try to get ya
[02:19.800] Self in my shoes,but they won't fit ya
[02:21.490] I'm bigger and better,forget about deffer
[02:23.550] Every time I rocked the mic,I left a
[02:25.700] Stain in your brain that will remain
[02:28.110] Stuck in the back of your brain till you see me
[02:30.610] Again, respect, I come correct
[02:32.640] The rhymes I select are nothing short of perfect
[02:35.120] Vernacular's pure and I can ensure
[02:37.190] Life or death with my breath, my voice is a cure
[02:39.780] I heal life from the words I spread
[02:42.500] I'll make a sick man rock on his death bed
[02:43.980] Sucker MC's , I'll make your girl say "ow"
[02:46.550] And she's jockin'
[02:47.760] How ya like me now (x2)
[03:07.410] It irked my nerve
[03:08.610] When I heard
[03:09.730] A sucker rapper that I know I'll serve
[03:11.900] Run around town sayin' he is the best
[03:14.450] Is that a test?
[03:15.550] I'm not impressed
[03:16.650] Get real, you're nothing but a toy
[03:18.970] Don't ya know I'll serve that boy?
[03:21.170] Just like a waiter
[03:22.390] Hit'em with a plate of
[03:23.930] These fresh rhymes and
[03:24.550] Make sure that he
[03:25.760] Pay the bill, and leave him standin' still
[03:27.560] When he's had enough, hit him with a refill
[03:29.550] And for dessert it won't be no ice cream
[03:32.260] I'm just gonna splatter and shatter his pipe dreams
[03:34.330] Make him feel the wrath, beat him down and laugh
[03:37.150] And when I finish, then I'm gonna ask him
[03:39.180] "Who is the best?" And if he don't say, "Moe Dee,"
[03:42.600] I'll take my whip and make him call himself Toby
[03:44.410] Whip him good, then I'll make him sweat
[03:46.230] Always talkin' about battles and never had a battle yet
[03:48.960] But if we ever did
[03:50.350] How could you beat me?
[03:51.380] You're so petrified
[03:52.370] You're scared to even meet me
[03:53.720] My word's the law
[03:54.580] That's why you don't beef
[03:55.750] You're nothing but a punk, track star, and a thief
[03:58.300] So I'm puttin' you on punishment
[03:59.130] Just like a child:
[04:00.560] Never touch another mic
[04:02.530] How ya like me now (x2)
[04:58.770] I could continue
[04:59.320] There's more on the menu
[05:00.200] But I'll relax 'cos I'm so far in you
[05:02.590] You had enough
[05:03.300] I know you're overstuffed
[05:04.500] And if I keep going
[05:05.600] You'll be throwin' up
[05:06.730] Old rhymes I used to say
[05:08.130] Way back in the day
[05:09.270] When you used to come to my
[05:10.730] Parties and pay
[05:11.750] Nobody's ever gonna rock me
[05:12.910] And this I vow
[05:14.280] So all I wanna say is
[05:16.400] How ya like me now? (X2)
[05:34.350] How ya like me now
