mfuqua23 Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 Hey y'all. I finally recorded the song that I performed at the Coffee House back in May 2005. It was my own rendition of A Tribe Called Quest's "Check The Rhime". I got a very receptive response. I had blanked out for the last 6 lines and had to freestyle. That was a nice lil test for me. Anyway, here's the lyrics and the song. Enjoy it. May 14, 2005 (circa 6:00 p.m.) - May 16, 2005 (9:15 a.m.) © 2005 Verse 1 1, 2, here's the introduction Listen to the flow of the lyrics and the beat of the percussion Nothin's gonna stop me from rockin' Handin' me the mic is ya only option And if not then, the crowd is gonna go cuz they didn't get a show and they'll end up closed But I can save ya, wit good behavior Let 'em hear a MC that can kick it major Pen hits the paper wit word submission And how I feel towards the rhythm, that's my decision Givin' U a vision of how I'm livin' or a fantasy imagining I'm not an automated service I ain't worthless, I got a purpose and I exert this force by choice Releasin' creative lyrics comin' outta my jaws Check the rhyme, respect the lines Perfectly defined in Hip Hop's hectic times While they're clowin', loungin', they're lost but I'm found wit a sound that they wish wasn't around Styles change, and everybody wants to reign in the game Have a bigger cash flow and out-do the next That's why ya scratch bein' neighbors cuz they'll try to play ya See, U can get hurt and U can feel irked Bein' low and gettin kicked to the dirt Some think to highly of our society But it's a cliff and they fall off like Wyle E. Gettin looney to tune cuz I got enuff room to push down on the dynamite box and go boom Recover and check the rhyme Everything's in order and still fine Verse 2 Get back into delight as I rap again The 1st verse was gettin' lonely, so I brought a friend that's convenient entertainment Fluently speaking the same language If U can't hang wit the dialect that a brain collects move down a step for ya next best bet Set up the scene, what's happening I'm a be like a camera, and capture things I'm walkin down a long avenue Gettin looked at by people that I never knew I'm in a backwards hat, and I don't back track unless I'm playin' music cuz I love hearin' that Just move to the groove, soothing to da ear No matter the emotion, I'm a feel it, yeah Maybe have a cutie catch my eye If I step up, do like a respectful guy Then continue when I'm thru, get home and write a few rhymes if I'm productive wit my mind Then record it, rewind, check the playback, it's fine Put it to a cd, and spin it anytime See, I'm just a regular but when it comes to Hip Hop, I gotta be a competitor cuz they wanna be better, leave U no enjoyment of a guy like me that's not annoying Bringing a great rhythm, that always get 'em If they wanna catch Zs, I ain't the one to see The word is bomb, wit a bond that's strong Able to hit the mic, just right in the song ------------------------------------------------- Just click on that good ol' bold link in my siggy-iggy-iggy. :2thumbs: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
