In the Flesh

In the flesh --> big daddy kane (cut & scratched 2x)
 [cl smooth]
 Introducing funk from the yard, collecting strictly knockouts
 The broters I sparred, which only means the man got nothing to prove
 On a power move made by the cl smooth
 Live 495 I arrive in person
 Hard dialogue without a whole bunch of cursing
 It's my perrogitive, so back up and live, fool
 As long as they don't violate everything's cool, cause it's all good
 Understood is the smoothest daddy with the roughest raps
 Am I thinking about blowing the spot? perhaps
 Carry straps on strips for the trigger-happy pirates
 Where ladies catch fits steady reaching for my privates
 But hold, how I unfold my whole repotoire
 Now here we are at home to make another superstar
 With rob-o indeed r with the p.r.
 But nevertheless it's cl smooth
 In the flesh (scratched 4x)
 [rob-o]
 Rob-o's at the top of the list, so bust this
 Stick to funk like scotch, the top-notch vocalist
 You don't stop, cause I can illustrate with the needle
 Penetrating straight to the souls of many people
 Is there any evil? on this path I'm innovating
 Stil faking, put down your pads and stop waiting
 See the year of the fly mc is here, so stand clear
 I'm facing the gods with no fear
 Rob-o, east coast, uptown
 Mcing the most and spreading the mecca all around
 Selecting the sound to make the party people pound
 And see gave you more, of what I say in '94
 It's like that, so don't stop
 It's like this, so God bless
 Soul brothers get down with no stress
 Yeah ini's representing in the flesh
 In the flesh (scratched 4x)
 [dida]
 Even in the mirror, it just doesn't get any clearer
 I hear a funky beat and I gotta get nearer
 Kaboom! stepping in the sound room mellow
 A dangerous flavorous fellow, hello
 Style and grace, the original's in this piece
 In the place right along with the pace
 Nevertheless, in the flesh no quest
 The sex in the system, of course I'm fresh
 I rest in the villes, the skills is big
 To a level of extravagence, the talent's all balanced
 The extreme dopeness for the nation
 D. is the inital, mc's the occupation
 Five master hype, light the color of the skin
 Once the beat roll, my goal is to win
 My friend the best, the real side yes
 I rest my case in your face in the flesh
 In the flesh (scratched 4x)
 [pete rock]
 Soul brother supreme to catch wreck in the flesh
 So check one two and a mic test
 Now clear the room, I scoped you with the wide angle zoom
 Trying to overstand my funk tunes
 Coming soon, so chill, don't stress the creator
 I'll kick the funk loop from here to cal tjader
 And cross the fader, and pack the lines on my paper
 With rhymes so tough, who got the flavor?
 Plus the knack to rock, I'm steady heating up the spot
 The chocolate boy wonder making heads bop
 In slow motion, domes crack open like the pavement
 Off some shit I made down in the basement
 The funk ambassador, asking you to get with the pro-
 Fessional, yo there's no question I can flow
 Time to slide, you know the p.r. will provide
 The real and still I feel the vibe, I'm in the flesh
 In the flesh (scratched 16x)
