Act Like You Know

Moonroof open, in the B.M.

Windows tinted, they can't see in..

.. they know it's me though

MC Lyte, she's bigger than bolo

Gusto, gusto, I got so much so

you could have some, you just got to lay low

Do as I say so and don't try to fess

Do whatcha wanna just clean up the mess

I'm here, ARRRRRRUFF, kick it in the rear

Rhymes and rhymes and rhymes I gots to spare

Act like you know

The things that I do just ain't for show

This is my living, so I am giving

everything I got if not a lot more

For the people, for the buyers

For all of those that seem to want to try a

MC Lyte tape in your Benzi box

What can I say? Hey, thanks a lot

Cause I'll flip and trip and do ALL that good shit

That's why the brothers, they can't get off my tip

They know whose show this is

Who's show is this?

* DJ cuts and scratches "This is MC Lyte.." 2X *

Act like you know!

* DJ cuts and scratches "This is MC Lyte.." 2X *

Act like you know!

[MC Lyte]

Like I said, I'm in the B.M.

Swingin it solo, enjoyin my freedom

Turn the radio on, nuttin but weak raps

Slide the tape in, that's where it's at

Look up at the sign and I see Winthrop

Can't hear nuttin so I turn down the hip-hop

Window down, reggae hit or somethin

Now hear a little shotty go pow-pow-pow

Brooklyn 90's, that's where I'm at

Reached to the back seat, get the baseball hat

Now I'm chillin so act like you know

This is my show

* DJ cuts and scratches "This is MC Lyte.." 2X *

Act like you know!

* DJ cuts and scratches "This is MC Lyte.." 2X *

Act like you know!

[MC Lyte]

Abra-cadabra, hocus pocus

I got somethin that'll make your eyes focus

Takin on the world, slammin it and bangin it

Keepin it hard, but still I'm changin it

Breakin all types of grounds

Here comes Wolf and Epic with the new sound

They get the job done

The name of the year is Lyte slash Ninety-One

So I'm chillin, in the B.M.

Waitin for those, that might see in

Straighten my jacket, fix my hair

turn up the system, as I prepare

to let the whole wide world know

this is my show

Now that I've schooled you and put you up on the scoop

Posse or massive, solo or group

Take it in stride, it's an inside

top secret heavy duty type of thing that I'm swingin

I got the key to success but I won't press

I'm sure that I can relieve you, of the stress

if you ad-mit, and just per-mit

me to go for mine and drop a line and ex-it

So just agree with me and simply act like you know

This is my show!
