(Step back)
Just step
Back, back, back (step back)
Just step
Back, back, back (step back)
Just step
Back, back, back
See if you can step to this
Just step
Ba-, ba-, ba-, back
Ba-, ba-, ba-, back
Just step
Ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, back
Just step
Ba-, ba-, ba-, back, back, back, back, back
Just step
Ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, back, back, back, back, back
Now try to do this step
To the lab
And make sure the pace is kept
And this ain't as smooth as I'mma get
Nice and easy, but hard to catch on to
Move with melodies, rhymes to respond to
The mic's in front of me, so you know it's gonna be
Rough and rugged, plus I'm smooth as I wanna be
I'm somethin' like sippin' on Dom Perignon
So absorb the song, 'til the rhyme's all gone
My beats and speech original, you can't find these
89 is mine, so is the 90s
Tellin' you what you need to know and more
Ya unsure? On tour, I explore
From street to street, to speak, from beat after beat
My cypher's complete, when I build wit' people I meet
So here's the info, straight from the source, in fact
Paid the cost to be the boss, step back
Give me room to exercise the mind (just step)
360 degrees'll be fine (just step)
The weight of the world is what we hold (just step)
That's a six, followed by twenty-one zeroes (just step)
Six sextillion tons is a lot of weight
My truth is the strength and my thought won't break (just step)
But it take, concentration, to rebuild our (just step)
Nation but we got to have mind power (step back)
And we can make it work, because I know we can
And if somethin' go wrong, make another plan
It's up to us, so strive and be wise and
When we reach the top, don't stop risin'
And I'll keep comin' up with more of
The most requested songs that you all love
Reach out and touch the mic, take control
Still gettin' paid, and I still got soul
And the only thing I ever wanted you to follow was poetry
Mind takes X-rays, so listen closely
From the darkness came the light
Clear out of a dark night, now I'm here to spark the mic
Send out truth, for other groups and substitutes
With run-on rhymes and weak dubs and loops
They'd rather hear the arsonist, they insist
No need to reminisce, see if you can step to this
Ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, back to the lab
Back to the lab
Ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, back to the lab
Step back
Back to the lab
Back to the lab
Back to the lab, without a mic to grab
So just step
Ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, back to the lab
Back to the lab
Back to the lab, without a mic
Just step, the rhymes create energy
Charged up, by the cut, and it's sendin' me (step back)
For a trip through the mind so I can locate (just step)
A laid back rap at a slow rate (step back)
It ain't hard at all, 'cause I invented it
As the days go on, you hear them wit' it
Brother bustin' braincells, thinkin' of a rap
With the same old style, we had enough of that
We all need somethin' to step to
And don't forget to, 'cause I won't let you
Dance without hopin' that this come on next
And if it go off, the DJ can't flex
'Cause here's the tempo, I'mma regulate the pace
Here's the step, go find some space
And what we gonna do is in unison, kick
Shake your head, you're influenced wit' music (just step)
By now you're intoxicated, 'cause I prove I made it
The pep your step so soon you get rejuvenated (step back) (just step)
From side to side, you pause and clap (just step)
But if you came to rap (just step) (just step)
Back to the lab, without a mic to grab
Ba-, ba-, ba-, back to the lab, without a mic to grab
(Step back, step back)
Just step
Ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, back to the lab
Ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, back to the lab
Ba-, back, back, back, back, ba-, ba-, back, back, ba-, back, ba-, back, ba-, ba-, ba-,
Back, back, ba-, ba-, back, back, back, back, ba-, ba- back, back, back, back to the lab (just step)
Ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, ba-, back
Just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just step
Back to the lab
Back to the lab
Just step, just step, just step
