Pass The Mic (Pt. 2, Skills To Pay The Bills)

Lyrics

If you can feel what I'm feeling, then it's a musical masterpiece
 Hear what I'm dealin' with, then that's cool at least
 What's runnin' through my mind comes through in my walk
 True feelings are shown from the way that I talk
 And this is me, y'all, I emcee, y'all
 My name is MCA, and I still do what I please
 And now I'd like to introduce (what's up?)
 I'll pass the mic to D, for a fist full of truth
 The name is D, y'all and I don't play
 And I can rock a block party 'til your hair turns grey
 So, what you sayin'? I explode on site
 I'm like Jimmy Walker, I'm Dyn-o-mite!
 And now I'd like to pass the mic
 To Ad-Rock, c'mon and do anything you like
 I'm the A-D-R-O-C-K
 In the place with the bass, I'm going all the way
 I can't stop, y'all, tock-tick, y'all
 And if you think that you're slick, you'll catch a brick, y'all
 'Cause I'mma turn it in and I'mma turn it out
 But now I've got to pass the mic to Yauch
 Well, on and on and on and on
 I can't stop, y'all, 'til the early morn'
 So rock-rock, y'all, tick-tock, y'all
 To the beat, y'all, c'mon and rock, y'all
 I give thanks for inspiration, it guides my mind along the way
 A lot of people get jealous, they're talking about me
 But that's just cause they haven't got a thing to say
 ♪
 Well, everybody rapping like it's a commercial
 Actin' like life is a big commercial
 So, this is what I've got to say to you all
 Be true to yourself and you will never fall
 And now I'd like to pass the mic to the A
 So, what's your name, Yauch?
 My name is MCA
 I've been coming to where I am from the get go
 Find that I can groove with the beat when I let go
 So, put your worries on hold
 Get up and groove with the rhythm in your soul
 And now I'd like to pass the mic (To who?)
 To my brother, Ad-Rock, c'mon and shine like a light
 Yes, yes, y'all and yes, yes, y'all
 I'm always on time, never the last, y'all
 And that's right, y'all, I shed light, y'all
 I've got no time in my life to get uptight, y'all
 So what you gonna say that I don't know already?
 I'm like Clyde and I'm rockin' steady
 But time flies when you're having fun
 So Mike D? (That's me!), c'mon and get some
 M-I-K-E to the D
 You come and see me and you pay a fee
 Do what I do, professionally
 To tell the truth I am exactly what I want to be
 Now Ad-Rock (Huh?) and MCA (Yeah?)
 Let's rock this joint in the old school way
 Well, I'm on, on 'til the crack of dawn
 Mowin' down emcees like I'm mowin' a lawn
 I go off, off like nothin' can phase me
 You think we'll ever meet Stevie?
 One of these days, D
 But I can stand my ground and I am down
 To wax an emcee who acts like a clown
 But for now, I'd like to ask you how
 You like the feel of the bass in your face in the crowd
