MC T on a hit and to make sure I don't miss,
7
kick the beat as this fool persists
8
Step off me, get the hell off, well I'm riding
9
Flowing with this funky beat, you suckers keep on tryin'a
10
diss this, uh-uh, I ain't having it
11
Sucker duck, understand my schedule work too heavy
12
I'm a man, I mean, sometimes it seems hammer claim
13
but I can still cop a lean and explain to you
14
an MC who's got beef, I'm giving grief to disbelief
15
You said that I was new to this well put me on your hit list
16
I'm 'quipped to rule, and I squash all the bull
17
We got our own ideas!
18
We got our own ideas!
19

20
Antogonistic action, it's just a fraction
21
of what I feel for you, I'll take my time in a rhyme
22
Yo, let's bust a move, I'm steppin' with confidence
23
yes I know it's evident, a backseat to you that's irrelevant
24
you see it's like this, you shot and missed, and now it's my turn
25
you learn, you mess with the fire, you burn. and it's a heat up
26
situation sticky
27
You're the duck, huh, I won't be picky, I'm bassin'
28
you're chasing a dream that I'm livin'
29
you stupid pigeon, cause even with the high flow, I keep a low pro
30
you step off on me, and that's a sho' nuff .o.
31
I mean a no-go
32
yeah, something like that
33
We got our own ideas! (yeah, yeah)

35
Fuck it, you're tryin' to step on my tip, yeah
36
{on top of a slow NPG chorus:}
37
I'm a brother with a purpose (pump it up, T)
38
so I'll take my time and serve this right
39
despite the negativity,
40
never want society to get the best of me
41
you sold out, just another fool, holdin' out
42
on the pockets of my brothers tryin' to get clout
43
step back, cast the vapors, your vision's blurred, check out my behaviour
44
calm, cool, never sweat the issue (so what you're saying?)
45
What I'm saying is that we're past due
46
gotta stand up and be counted, can't you see the trouble keeps mountin', boy
47
And I won't stand for it, so get off
48
cause I'm about to have a fit
49
you can't step unless you step legit

62
they say you're the king of rules
63

64
I'm stalking, you're talking
65
as you run your mouth down, I'm chalking up another way of
66
gettin' paid in dividends
