featuring Mad Lion Shaggy

[Mad Lion] *singing to the tune "Walk Like an Egyptian"*

Who wan come try dis respect

De mother yon chop upon dis head (chop man)

Mother knows every style oh wayyy ohh

like Shaggy one called KRS [Yes!] (whooooh!)

The champagne drink rock n roll link

Holy smoke pon de bass mix (tell em tell em tell em)

Never know tell me go oh wayyy ohh

Yo Kali serve his head like Chef

All de massive in de pub just say, eyyy-yo, eyyy-yo

(Rob him like dat, man now come down bring it)

Eyyyheyyyyyo eyyyyy-yo

(Ya come down now KRS, tell em, tell em, yeah!)

[KRS-One]

You don't realize the magnitude I laugh at you

Flappin you rat-a-tat, you on your own avenue

while I'm slappin you, askin you, "Why you actin new?"

Crushin a mack and you turnin up the black in you

Skill for skill you the minor we the major

I grade your whole album like a mad term paper...

ZERO, don't be a fan! Like DeNiro

Be a teacher, be a role model, be a hero

Get it clear yo, I be rollin with de po-sse

Now do your plan over or get, ran over

[Mad Lion]

I be crusin down the highway, just sportin in the fly way

Turn it up a notch and de sound hits dem

Creepin through traffic with the sunroof open

to ventilate the scent from the spliff we smokin

Huff with a chop we do not

We make up a mighty powder, said scrap, last week!

We close in the Jeep, no fire for sleep

Dem come rough and make you one of dem weak or

in de dance kill a watch like chicken in my pot

Call dem with de champagne, can't stop that's right!

Man of been to dem place, to champagne away

Sign of money, can virus strike

"I see you move..."

Look now man, look look

"I see you move..."

I think it's time for it

[Shaggy]

Who dat from the chat with the boom shot

Hit you with the lyrical bash, so won't last

Rudebwoy check your stash, caught the cash

and if you don't like dat, somebody gettin bitch-slapped

I'm the raggamuffin with the Dream Team

KRS, Mad Lion guaranteed to make your money scream

(See? All you need) rhythmatical style

(Need) ya done gwan irie, peep

Pump ya best if ya irie, like me

Cause we don't want know si-ren, hey

Nuff a rhyme works, nobody gets hurt

Look up on the dancefloor, herd of nothin but skirts

Fellas in the club, actin like vi-pers

Bitin them girls like your name was Marv Albert

Baby love no fighting, come to back biting

You and your girlfriend should do the right thing

I'ma let this beat swing, while I think I'm the king

and go rap pon a nice sexy young queen

"I see you move..."

"I see you move..."

[Mad Lion] *singing to the tune "Walk Like an Egyptian"*

Who wan come try, dis-respect

De mother yon chop upon dis head (chop man)

Mother knows every style, oh-wayyy-ohh

like Shaggy, one called KRS

The champagne drink, rock-n-roll link

Holy smoke pon de bass mix (tell em, tell em, tell em)

Never know tell me go, oh-wayyy-ohh

Yo Kali, serve his head like Chef

All de massive in de pub just say, eyyy-yo, eyyy-yo

Eyyyheyyyyyo eyyyyy-yo

[KRS-One]

Yo... get your hands up!! Yo!

On the mic I'm sheddin light, you better get it right

I produce what you like, satisfy your appetite

No fly-by-night, we rock you right

KRS Shaggy Mad Lion yo whassup with this money?

[Mad Lion]

Turn watch while we seek, see now stop dance wid dem

Don'tcha want this girl, with her Erykah streak

Kafi yome love go me because we off that weed

Chase while we head to the watch pon me wrist
