0:08Don't sweat the technique
0:17Don't sweat the technique
0:27Let's trace the hints and check the file
0:29Let see who bit to detect the style
0:31I flip the script so they can't get foul
0:34At least not now it'll take a while
0:36I change the pace to complete the beat
0:38I drop the bass 'till mc's get weak
0:40For every word they trace it's a scar they keep
0:43'cause when i speak they freak
0:44To sweat the technique
0:45I made my debut in '86
0:48Wit a melody and a president's mix
0:50And now i stay on target and refuse to miss
0:53And i still make hits
0:56Wit'beats parties clubs in the cars and jeeps
0:58My underground sound vibrates the streets
1:00Mc's wanna beef then i play for keeps
1:02When they sweat the technique
1:12Don't sweat the technique
1:21They wanna know how many rhymes have i ripped in rep but
1:24Researchers never found all the pieces yet
1:26Scientists try to solve the context
1:29Philosophers are wondering what's next
1:31Pieces are took to last who observe them
1:34They couldn't absorb them they didn't deserve them
1:35For my opponents it might take years
1:37Pencils and pens are swords
1:40Letters put together form a key to chords
1:44I'm also a sculpture born with structure
1:46Because of my culture i'm a rip and destruct the
1:49Difficult styles that'll be for the technology
1:51Complete sights and new heights after i get deep
1:54You don't have to speak just seek
1:57And peep the technique
2:06But don't sweat the technique
2:16I speak indiscreet cause talk is cheap
2:18Then i get deep and the weak then complete their
2:21Pull with a seat never weak or obsolete
2:23They never grow old techniques become antiques
2:25Better then something brand new 'cause it's radiant
2:28And the wild style'll have much more volume
2:30Classical too intelligent to be radical
2:31Masterful never irrelevant mathematical
2:33Here's some soothing souvenirs for all the years
2:36They fought and sought the thoughts and ideas
2:38It's cool when you freak to the beat
2:42But don't sweat the technique
2:47Don't sweat the technique
2:51Don't sweat the technique
Don't  sweat  the  technique
Don't  sweat  the  technique
Let's  trace  the  hints  and  check  the  file
Let  see  who  bit  to  detect  the  style
I  flip  the  script  so  they  can't  get  foul
At  least  not  now  it'll  take  a  while
I  change  the  pace  to  complete  the  beat
I  drop  the  bass 'till  mc's  get  weak
For  every  word  they  trace  it's  a  scar  they  keep
'cause  when  i  speak  they  freak
To  sweat  the  technique
I  made  my  debut  in '86
Wit  a  melody  and  a  president's  mix
And  now  i  stay  on  target  and  refuse  to  miss
And  i  still  make  hits
Wit'beats  parties  clubs  in  the  cars  and  jeeps
My  underground  sound  vibrates  the  streets
Mc's  wanna  beef  then  i  play  for  keeps
When  they  sweat  the  technique
Don't  sweat  the  technique
They  wanna  know  how  many  rhymes  have  i  ripped  in  rep  but
Researchers  never  found  all  the  pieces  yet
Scientists  try  to  solve  the  context
Philosophers  are  wondering  what's  next
Pieces  are  took  to  last  who  observe  them
They  couldn't  absorb  them  they  didn't  deserve  them
For  my  opponents  it  might  take  years
Pencils  and  pens  are  swords
Letters  put  together  form  a  key  to  chords
I'm  also  a  sculpture  born  with  structure
Because  of  my  culture  i'm  a  rip  and  destruct  the
Difficult  styles  that'll  be  for  the  technology
Complete  sights  and  new  heights  after  i  get  deep
You  don't  have  to  speak  just  seek
And  peep  the  technique
But  don't  sweat  the  technique
I  speak  indiscreet  cause  talk  is  cheap
Then  i  get  deep  and  the  weak  then  complete  their
Pull  with  a  seat  never  weak  or  obsolete
They  never  grow  old  techniques  become  antiques
Better  then  something  brand  new 'cause  it's  radiant
And  the  wild  style'll  have  much  more  volume
Classical  too  intelligent  to  be  radical
Masterful  never  irrelevant  mathematical
Here's  some  soothing  souvenirs  for  all  the  years
They  fought  and  sought  the  thoughts  and  ideas
It's  cool  when  you  freak  to  the  beat
But  don't  sweat  the  technique
Don't  sweat  the  technique
Don't  sweat  the  technique
