Lyrics
0:00I Know - Rakim
0:05Aye yo who's the most explosive one yet
0:07The a roundest one left
0:09Who flows express to them
0:10Rhythm drum set ain't done yet
0:11Flow like a trumpet to your eardrum are deaf
0:14Who pose a threat
0:15Yo who's more ferocious none yet
0:17To the night damn set mic trends and life ends
0:20In sight
0:20I see the whole world through a tight lens
0:23Rhymes I write wins and kept a white benz
0:26Spend G's like hundreds and hundreds like tens
0:29I get paid
0:29Black but laid back with mild manners
0:32When I flip it's the opposite of dark bruce banner
0:34Out the lab with soul and melodies in your ear
0:38And just when it all seem clear I disappear
0:40All you gotta do is holler
0:42Reappear like vol la the street scholar
0:45I'm 40 deep like ali baba
0:46Give the mamas somethin'
0:48To talk about in the beauty parlor
0:49Keep it hot like lava yeah
0:51It's rakim allah
0:52I know you find it hard to believe that
0:56I am the genie of the mic an
0:58I can do anything you wish but
1:01Right now I'm commandin' you to dance
1:04Ready to dance y'all
1:05My magic carpet's the dance floor
1:07Last chance y'all even if you can't ball
1:09What part don't you understand
1:11Your wish is my command
1:12And I'm a rock a jam by popular demand
1:15You gone love this it's marvelous baby
1:18It gotta thug's twist
1:20It start to get crazy
1:21It's off the meat rack
1:22I can't keep my peeps back
1:24I speak raps and I freak tracks for these cats
1:27I got a fetish for puttin' together words and letters
1:30It ain't all about the cheddars
1:31And y'all know where my head is
1:33Ghetto scriptures for my little brothers and sisters
1:36And still get vicious for the thugs and the misses
1:39What I don't do is talk about the same old thing
1:41When I come through
1:42I drop it and they gone swing
1:44I bring the ladies joy until' they make crazy noise
1:47'Cuz the beat's bangin'

2:25But I just begun the best is yet to come
2:28Blessed with a majestic tongue since

2:35Let allah protect your son
2:37'Cause somethin' musical magician
2:38The ageiathic author
2:40The microphone magician
2:41When I have a magic marker a mentor

2:48You'll be blown away and a zone to play
2:51It's so I'll
2:52I still grab the microphone and say
2:54One of my own displays like
