3
Music orientated so when Hip Hop was originated
4
Fitted like pieces of puzzles, it was complicated
5
'Cuz I grabbed the mic and try to say, yes y'll
6
They tried to take it and say that I'm too small
7
Cool, cool 'cuz I don't get upset
8
I kick a hole in the speaker, pull the plug then I jet
9
Back to the lab without a mic to grab
10
So then I add all the rhymes I had
11
One after the other one, then I make another one
12
To dis the opposite then ask if the brother's done

I get a cravin' for a fiend for nicotine
14
But I don't need a cigarette, know what I mean

I'm ragin', rippin' up the stage
16
And don't it sound amazin'
17
'Cuz every rhyme is made and thought of
18
'Cuz it's sort of an addiction, magnetized by the mixin'

The mic is a drano, volcanoes eruptin'

My thoughts to guide, 48 tracks to slide

A smooth operator operatin' correctly
27
But back to the problem

I gotta habit, I ain't a solvin' it, silly rabbit
29
The prescription is a hypertone that's thorough when a fiend
30
For a microphone like heroin soon as the bass kicks, I need a fix

So gimme a stage and a mic and a mix

And I'll put you in a mood or is it

A state of unawareness, beware, it's the reanamator

If the people ain't steppin' you see a part of me
37
That you never seen when I'm fiendin'

For a microphone, I'm the microphone fiend
39
After twelve, I'm worse than a Gremlin
40
Feed me Hip Hop and I start tremblin'
41
It's the thrill of suspense that's intense
42
You're horrified but this ain't the cinemas
43
Of 'Tales From the Darkside', darkside
44
By any means necessary this is what had to be done
45
Make way 'cuz here I come
46
Fisty cuts material, call imperial
47
It's a must that I bust any mic you hand to me
48
It's inherited, it's runs in the family

56
I'm hype as a hypochondriac 'cuz the rap be one

Hell of a antidote, somethin' you can't smoke

More than dope, you're tryin' to move away
59
But you can't, you're broke
60
More than cracked up, you should have backed up
61
For those who act up need to be more than smacked up
62
Any entertainer, I got a torture chamber
63
One on one and I'm the remainder, remainder
64
So close your eyes and hold your breath,
65
And I'm a hit'cha wit the blow of death
66
Before you go, you'll remember you seen

The fiend from a microphone

The microphone fiend

The microphone fiend

I'm a mic, I'm a mic, I'm a microphone fiend
