Lyrics

Have you ever, ever in your long living life

Seen a woman rock the mic like the one called the Lyte?

Well, have you ever, ever in your long living life

Seen a woman rock the mic like the one called the Lyte?

As I zoom with the Z down the avenue, who it be?

Me less the crew while you're talking that woopty-woo

I'm making moves that's smoother than the cream

Or the sweat from a wet dream dripping with Vaseline

My Maybelline left a ring on the scene

I got mad peeps down with the tag team

Listen, you couldn't front if you wanted to (Wanted to)

Trying to escape, now I'm the one that you're running to

Looking at my tag, it's about that time

For you to get yours, for me to get mine

Huh, I got your shit popping wheelies like a ninja

The inner of my center keeps you warm in the winter

My placenta is on high overload

My complete context, it gets so complex

I might explode on the scene like a nuclear bomb

While the children scream, I'm yelling, "Ring the alarm!"

Have you ever, ever in your long living life

Seen a woman rock the mic like the one called the Lyte?

Well, have you ever, ever in your long living life

Seen a woman rock the mic like the one called the Lyte?

This is going out to all the ruffnecks and hoodrats

Germaine hit me off with the track, yo, brat

If you with me, holla, let me know where you're at

I be the stage wrecker, rhyme manifester

Feel the pressure coming straight off Elektra

The shit that I be kicking is off the wall crazy

You can't see what I can see because you're blind, baby

Born a slave, die a slave

Representing from the cradle to the grave

'Cause we living in the last days

Coming through your TV in 3D

It's the Lyte representing for the female species

Letting 'em know that they can't even see me

Have you ever, ever in your long living life

Seen a woman rock the mic like the one called the Lyte?

Well, have you ever, ever in your long living life

Seen a woman rock the mic like the one called the Lyte?

What do we have here? An imposter

Perpetrator, fake player trying to get on the roster

I keep trying to warn 'em and drop it all on 'em

Rap may collapse when they attack and drop the bomb on 'em

Blow 'em to dust, either roll with us or get rushed

In God we trust, 'cause it's a must

That I kick it like I hear it, speak it like I see it

It's the spirit, I ain't got to see it to believe it

I take the form of the rain in a storm

As I get warm like the rays of the sun

Here I come like a hurricane, ready to be reborn

Let me be the first to welcome you to the Terrordome

The unknown zone, a million miles away from home

The clock is ticking, time is up

Before the world destructs or the universe erupts

I'ma be the one to light this motherfucker up

Have you ever, ever in your long living life

Seen a woman rock the mic like the one called the Lyte?

Well, have you ever, ever in your long living life

Seen a woman rock the mic like the one called the Lyte?
