Never Missin' A Beat

[ VERSE 1: Everlast ]Listen up, learn, you'll get your

turnI'm sendin this out to all it may concernThe party

master Everlast is hereBefore we begin I'm gonna make this

clearI take no short cuts, Bilal adds dope cutsIf girls

were around I'd grab and grope buttsAnd if she got a man

and he tries to step upIt's ashes to ashes and dust gets

swept upTryin to step to me, boy, you must be sickGot a

nine in my pocket, takin heads out quickI make my music

loud, my parents proudThere's not an artist alive drawing a

better crowdThan the Everlasting operator droppin a

grooveTo make you get up and dance while I bust this

moveAnd talk about myself, I don't need a partnerBilal has

the cuts, then I'll help start theShow, let a lyric flow

and you'll knowI make you jump up out your seats, scream

and say "ho!"You fall back down completely exhaustedOnce

you had the sound, but now it seems you lost itYou're worn

out, you can't take no moreSince Everlast and Bilal took

control of the floorSo jump out your seat, move your feet

cause the beat's completeI'm never missin a beat(Never

missin a beat) --> George Clinton[ VERSE 2: Everlast ]

There's no need for askin, I'm the EverlastinMy mind is a

poll and I'm gonna cast inThe ocean of words and pull out a

new rhymeAnd if it feels good, then I'll do it two timesOr

maybe three, four, or even five timesWhen I'm done Bilal

cuts up my rhymeHe's my partner, not a stand-inOn

a 'highway to heaven' just like Mike LandonAnd when it

comes to battles my boy's a sure winHe's been in more

scandals than J.R. EwingBusted up more parties than five-

oWhen it comes to a fight my boy's good to goSo step on

stage, we duke it out like menI beat you down with every

word that flows out my penAnd I was the Green Hornet

Bilal'd be KatoRight by my side kickin up dustAnd if a

sucker acts stupid, grab my gat and bustYou can't run away

cause my clip holds ten rhymesIf you been beaten once, I'll

beat you ten timesWorse than you ever been beaten beforeI

don't drop my mic unless my throat gets soreAnd that don't

happen because when I'm rappinMy rhymes'd beat Gregory

Hines if they was tappinSo jump our your seat, move your

feet cause the beat's completeI'm never missin a beat(Ain't

it funky)[ VERSE 3: Everlast ]Lyrical and linguistic,

somewhat artisticSome call me a devil, others call me

mystic-al like a crystal ballAnd if you step to me you'll

take a fallJust like the Roman EmpireFeel the wrath of a

devil's hellfireCallin me a devil, some think it's a dissTo

me it's just a name, it's not stones and sticksYou can't

hurt me, I got a positive outlookReadin my good bookOr

maybe some philosophy like Socrates and PlatoStep to me

with drugs, I just say noBut I'll drink some lemonade if

it's ( ? )I'm down with DLC and the StylerThe D-i-v-

Einstein of rhymeIs down with me cause he knows that I'mOn

my way I will not strayFrom the path of knowledge that'll

earn my payI think for myself, I take adviceAnd if I did it

wrong once, then I do it twiceI check my steps, make sure

they're correctAnd that's why me and DLC get respectSo jump

our your seat, move your feet cause the beat's completeI'm

never missin a beat
