[ INTRO: KRS-One ]
Come now
Yes
Now everyone comes in and says that they are
The lyrical champion
But of course there is only a few
That can really stand by that
Come now
[ CHORUS ]
Rhymin skill, rhymin skills (bo!)
Yes, D-Nice, you got the rhymin skills (come now)
Rhymin skill, rhymin skills (bo!)
Yes, D-Nice, you got the rhyme
[ VERSE 1 ]
The TR 808, and I cultivate with this trait
Nobody can imitate or relate, cause I 'm the great (say what?)
Here 's your fate, put your weight down on it
And if you try to step to me, I make you pay down pon it (bo!)
Cause I 'm the one, and some compare me to the drum
The lyrics and bass combined will make your sound system hum
So when I come you should bow down greatfully
Cause even if you 're protected, ya can 't face the D
Cause the microphone is just a crumb in your possession
Considerin that I take the cake in this profession
So here 's a lesson on the bass with smooth deliverance
And it 's called the 'TR 808 experience '
[ CHORUS ]
[ VERSE 2 ]
There 's no mistakin, there 's not another brother great when
I step in the place, step out my face with the haste, and
Cause I 'm the TR 808, and
Rippin the mic up, in other words you know I 'm breakin
New grounds with my sounds, so don 't consider
Tryin me (say what?) cause I don 't pop the glitter
On my gear, no, not even a tiny bit
I 'm Nice, not Ice, so I don 't rock the shiny shit
I rock my Nikes instead when I strut (say what?)
I may rock a ring when I feel, but so what?
My rhymes are sharp, so they cut
You 're on my tip so much, I mistake you for my cup
Yeah
Right about know I want all y 'all suckers to know this is real
(Yes, D-Nice, you got the rhymin skills)
So anyone who cannot go with the flow that I throw
I get the dough, and oh - now you know
I got the
[ CHORUS ]
[ OUTRO: KRS-One ]
Ease up and hold tight
All Brooklyn massive
All Bronx massive
All Uptown crew
Just sekkle
The mighty D-Nice come down ruff and wicked
Pop this in your cassette
The Don [Name] must rule everytime, seen?
Rhymin skill, say rhymin skill - come!
Yes, D-Nice, you have di rhymin skills - come now!
Rhymin skill, say rhymin skill - bo!
Yes, D-Nice, you have di rhymin skills - bo!
No peace till justice
