The call heard 'round the world
from the wives of MC's
These cats is payin' more

My garment bag I snatch it down
Ain't got the state but we could

Scenarios like this is tear jerkers
For the modern MC ie. the blue
collar worker
'Cuz this thing called rhymin'
no different from coal minin'
We both on assignment to
unearth a diamond
When you start climbin'
And them eyes start shinin'
You be strugglin' and strivin'
And they think you prime-timin'
Maintain Maintain and keep silent make note
and observation
This confrontation
This is the daily operation
A concentration
Stay focused on my recitation
'Bout to reach my destination
with no pause or hesitation
Baby make the preperation
'cuz this ain't no recreation
This is Pro Ball!
And we lettin' you know y'all
At the show y'all
