Lyrics

(11 seconds of audio collage at the intro)

*MC Lyte`s voice gradually fades in*

Hot damn, hot damn, hot damn, hot damn

Hot damn! Hot damn hoe, here we go again

Suckers steal a beat, when you know they can`t win

You stole the beat, are you havin fun?

Now me and the Aud`s gonna show you how it`s done

You are what I label as a, nerver plucker

You`re pluckin my nerves, you MC sucka

I thought I oughta tell you, better yet warn

That I am like a stop, and my word is Bond

like James, killin everybody in sight

The code`s three-six, the name is Lyte

After this jam, I really don`t give a damn

Cause I`ma run and tell your whole damn clan

that you`re a

"Beat biter! Dope style taker!

Tell you to your face you ain`t nuttin but a faker!"

(repeat 2X)

Hit me why don`tcha, hit me why don`tcha?

Milk`s bodyguard, is my bodyguard too

You wanna get hurt, well this is what you do

You put your left foot up, and then your right foot next

Follow instructions, don`t lose the context

Thirty days a month your mood is rude

We know the cause of your bloody attitude

"Beat biter! Dope style taker!

Tell you to your face you ain`t nuttin but a faker!"

(repeat 2X)

Your style is smooth, even for a cheatin mic

You shoulda won applause as a Rakim sound-alike

Here`s a Milkbone, a sign of recognition

Don`t turn away, I think you should listen close

Don`t boast, you said you wasn`t braggin

You f**kin liar, you`re chasin a chuckwagon

The only way you learn you have to be taught

that if a beat is not for sale, then it can`t be bought

When you leave the mic, you claim it`s smokin

Unlike Rakim, you are a Joke

and I think you oughta stop, before you gets in too deep

Cause with a sister like Lyte, yo I don`t sleep

"Beat biter! Dope style taker!

Tell you to your face you ain`t nuttin but a faker!"

(repeat 2X)

When I`m in a jam, with my homegirl Jill

My cousin Trey across the room with a posse to kill

So I step in the middle, shake it just a little

Wait for some female to step up and pop junk

Give my cousin a cue, treat the girl like a punk

Now I`m not tryin to say that I`m into static

But yo if you cause it, yup, we gotta have it

Cause I ain`t goin out like a sucker no way

So I sit around the way for you to make my day

We can go for the hands, better yet for the words

Cause you`ll be ignored, and at the same time, I`ll be heard

throughout the city, the town and the country

The beat is funky, my rhyme is spunky

There is no delayin in the rhyme I`m sayin

Neither are the flaws of what my DJ is playin

So SIT BACK Jack, and listen to this

It`s 10% Dis..

cause I`m just about ready to fly this fist

against your lips!

But I`ll wait for the day or night that you approach

and I`ma serve then burn ya like a piece of, toast!

Pop you in the microwave to watch your head bubble

Your skin just crumble, a battle`s no trouble

Get my homegirls Dohni and Kiki to get stupid

This thing called hip-hop, Lyte is rulin it

I hate to laugh in your face, but you`re funny

Your beat, your rhymin, your timin, all crummy

On the topic of rappin, I should write a pamphlet

Better yet a booklet..

Your rap is weak homegirl

and it`s definitely crooked!

Others write your rhymes, while I write my own

I don`t create a character, when I`m on the microphone

I am myself, no games to be played

No script to be written, no scene to be made

I am the director, as far as you are concerned

You don`t believe me, then you`ll have to learn

This ain`t as hard as MC Lyte can get

And matter of fact, you ain`t seen nothin yet!

So never let me step into a party hardy

Talk to some people and then hear from somebody

`You wanna battle?` cause you know where I am

You don`t wanna come in the 90`s and see me at a jam

when a, mic is handy, ten feet away

I stretch my arm like elastic, head like a magnetic

Set assure, you know I don`t play

When it comes down to it, the nitty gritty

For a sucker like you I feel a whole lot of pity

"Beat biter! Dope style taker!

Tell you to your face you ain`t nuttin but a faker!"

(repeat 2X)
