Grip The Mic

[Kool Keith]

Yo whassup this is Kool Keith, the general speaker in full effect

And I'm out here and.. ridin smooth on this European highway

With this foxy fine mama, by my side, you know that? (Word?)

Right now I'm makin love, but I'ma, say a few rhymes

Check it out, one time for the braincell

Well I'ma grip the mic, grab the mic, hold the mic

Snatch the mic, switch the mic

Freak the mic, sneak the mic, rock the mic

Eat the mic, beat the mic

Pack the mic, freak a style, use a style

Hyper style, Riker's style

Like a style, freak 'em all for a while

Worthwhile, I'm coolin out like I'm Batman

Ridin the Batmobile, holdin my Bat mic

Robbin the Riddler, come on and get in hype

Droppin a bomb - I'm gonna take it over

Fucked up too, that shit was goin smooth

[beat drops out and starts over]

Yo whassup this is Kool Keith in full effect

And I'm out here cruisin on this European highway

Doin it my way (uh-huh) check it out

So keep your eye away, and look as I fly away

Check it out

Well I'ma grip the mic, grab the mic, hold the mic

Snatch the mic, switch the mic

Freak the mic, sneak the mic, rock the mic

Eat the mic, beat the mic

Pack the mic, freak a style, use a style

Hyper style, Riker's style

Like a style, freak 'em all for a while

Worthwhile, I'm coolin out like I'm Batman

Ridin the Batmobile, holdin my Bat mic

Robbin the Riddler, come on and get hype

Droppin a rhyme, funky rhymes for the dancefloor

Rhymes flow on, styles come quicker

You've been outfoxed by the metaphor slicker

Think twice, go slow, words'll flow

And speed up rhymes like a pro-

-fessional poet, comin back and you know it

I treat your brain like a whistle, pick it up and I blow it

Four times with rhymes, look and stop for signs

Detour, go back, hit your brakes and stop

You're just a floor that's dirty toy, come battle the Mop

'n'Glow and, stealin the show and

You stay down low'n, while I keep goin

Around the clock, kickin rhymes, the mic is on overtime

Back and front, drunk dizzy here's a sober rhyme

Tellin your braincells that I am the best one

Rappers who perpetrate, come jump up and test one

Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down

You and your man, sit down, sit down, Trev tell 'em sit down (sit down)

Rhymes go on and dip so quick by

Stand and wait fool, and yo yo stick by

Stand inside, look around and you'll see me

Join the party, check it out (word)

I'ma take off and cruise and change into third gear
